When Anon-A miss brings Sunset’s world crashing down around her, she turns to the one pony she knows she can truly trust, only to find she’s not the only one who’s been betrayed by her friends. Plagued by betrayals old and new, Twilight and Sunset began to walk the road to recovery and as they do, they discover that while the road may be painful, it’s also almost as beautiful as the pony walking next to them.

This story is a sequel to Tally Marks

Sunset wouldn't say she's been lying to her friends. She wouldn't say she's been hiding anything from them. She just hasn't been ready to tell them about her depression. It has never felt like the right time. Or place. She doesn't have the right words. The right tone.

But she doesn't want to keep facing this alone. So she tells the one person, or pony rather, she is ready to: Princess Twilight Sparkle.

Adagio wants to try something different in bed, which is not a concept new to her and Sunset's relationship. What is new however, is how uncharacteristically shy she’s being about it.

What to do when you're a teenage girl in love with someone you aren't sure loves you back? You wax lyrical about it, of course. But, considering this is Rarity we're talking about, she's significantly more, shall we say, structured in such things.
