Small choices. Big choices. They all have the potential to completely change your life, for better or worse, whether you want it or not.
Octavia made one such choice when she decided to leave for Manehatten and start making her name there, rather than relying on Canterlot's posh society's respect for a wealthy, influential family name.

Celestia asks Twilight to move back to Canterlot for a year to work on her magical research, and to help her get better adjusted to life as a princess of Equestria. With all her friends being very busy, they'll barely have any time to see each other any more. Well, all of them except one. After all, what kind of Element of Loyalty would Rainbow Dash be if she didn't make time to be with her friends? But both of them will quickly learn that life doesn't leave much time for traveling, and distance is a hard thing to fight.

What's it like trying to keep in touch with the ones you care about only through writing?

A story about trying to deal with distance and love.

Twilight Sparkle, slightly jealous of the fact that her friends are in happy relationships, decides to try a new method of finding love: the ponynet! Will she manage to find a marefriend online?

This story does take place after 72 Dresses, but you don't really need to read it to understand this at all.
