Twilight Sparkle had been preparing for her entrance exam for so long, just to blow it at the end! If only she could get away to a place no one would know her.

Sometimes wishes come true.

A Collab with The Abyss

Edited by RK

Nightmare Moon is alone and wishes to have a daughter to share her kingdom on the moon with. Twilight is alone and wishes to have a mother that will love her. What happens when their wishes are granted? Read and find out.

Russian Translation for the story here. Thankyou NovemberDragon for doing the translation you are awesome.

So let's just turn this into a meme why don't we? Filly Twilight adopted by Villian X! I don't know I saw the ones with Daybreaker and Chrysalis and thought, "Oh what the hell I'll do it too because it's fun!" So here I am bringing you a story in a similar vein. Please enjoy the story and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcome. If you are going to downvote tell me why you did so I can improve. (Unless you're being an a**hole than I don't want you here.)

Thank you Julunis14 for the amazing cover art! Go give her some love she really deserves it!

For almost a thousand years, the immortal Nightmare Moon has reigned over Equestria as Empress. To the average pony, Nightmare Moon is an overarching enigma whose rule is absolute and whose wrath is terrible. But to Twilight Sparkle, who as an orphan has never known her parents, the Empress is something else entirely. When the young unicorn is brought under the royal wing as an apprentice, she learns a great deal more about the supposed tyrant than she ever knew. But as Twilight is introduced to life with her new mentor, she is thrust into a world of political intrigue, conspiracies and secrets. Secrets that were never meant to be revealed. As allies and enemies plot against the very peace of the nation, will Twilight fall prey to the perils of her new position? Or will she prosper and find in Nightmare Moon the mother she never had?

My eternal gratitude to my editor, LordOfTheWrongs, without whom Night's Favoured Child would not be the story it is today.

Now with added TVtropes!

Just as the title says. There's all sorts of adventures children can get into when they're in the tub! I thought of this while I was taking a bath...

This story is a sequel to Friendship is Shining: Family Matters

While everyone is coming to terms with Twiley going back to Canterlot, Pinkie Pie finds herself trying to do too much. Then she remembers an old story that her grandmother used to tell her. Now Pinkie thinks she can be everywhere she needs to at once. Unfortunately, it turns out that the magic comes at a price.

Can Pinkie's friends save her before it's too late?

So Twilight has already told Celestia that she's a dum dum, tried to put a guard in time out, slid down the hallway in that guard's armour, threw a flower pot at Celestia, threw a paint balloon at one of Celestia's guests, sprained that guests hoof, told Cadance that she was a dum dum, burnt down the Canterlot Castle...you get the idea. So what next?

This story is a sequel to Friendship is Shining: Clash of The Iron Mares

Shining Armor and Twilight Sparkle's parents -- Nightlight and Twilight Velvet -- are back from their second honeymoon. They also have two announcements to share with their family. One of them will be thrilling and exciting.

The other...

When Twilight finds a book some advanced spells she can't resist but read it and try to perform them. Unfortunately the spell back fired and turned Twilight back into a filly. Having no memory of her adult life, can her friends find a cure for her? Or will she have to start life over again?

This story is a sequel to Why Celestia is a Big Dum Dum

Time out again? What is it, Time to Pick on Twilight Day? Twilight needs to deal with this solution the best that she can. This letter will take her a long time to finish.

The story is short and about Celestia keeping Twilight warm in her room. As she is blanketing the young sleeping filly, the alicorn thoughtfully thanks her for granting her the happiness she had felt when she was young.

A simple story between a mentor and her student (but emphasized in a way where I imply Celestia as a motherly figure to Twilight). Enjoy, and safe winter holidays. Be careful now.
