This story is a sequel to Silverstream gets kidnapped

Technically a sequel, but happens simultaneously with the previous story and does not require reading it or any other entries in the series.

Returning home for a summer break, Yona finds Yakyakistan on the brink of a civil war. While Prince Rutherford wants to open his country to the world and ally with ponies, a group of traditionalist Yaks under Prince Bradford want to return to the traditional isolationism.

As the threat of War of Two Brothers looms over Yakyakistan, Yona finds herself surprised by the stubborn stupidity of some of the yaks she used to look up to. The Student of Friendship faces her greatest challenge at the doorstep of her home, but she has no doubts – she is Yona, and Yona is the best! She will stop this stupid war before it starts!

Prince Rutherford could already feel the incoming headache.

As usual, minor Equestria at War references in names and locations. Knowledge of EaW not required at all to enjoy the story.

You ever have one of those days where you've woken up after a great night drinking with your friends, and you discover you've been turned into a colourful talking horse with a tattoo on its rear end?

No?

Well I have, so shut up.

The name I've taken for myself is Sharp Sight. I won't bother telling you my real name, since it's not gonna be used that much and you probably won't remember it.

This will mostly account my figuring out why I'm a technicolor equine and getting used to having four legs and seeing purple and blue horses talking, flying and using magic like it's nobody's business.

I don't have a 'waifu' to chase down and use my improbable charisma to get her to fall in love with me within minutes, so don't expect any of this.

On the other hand - or hoof, whichever floats your particular tea set - if you want to watch a snarky pony fall over his own legs and be frightened by his own shadow from the possibility of it coming to life and trying to eat his face, then this is the read for you.

So fire away and enjoy yourself. Laugh if you can, and feel free to leave any feedback. Believe it or not, it's appreciated.

Twilight Sparkle is a little filly with a big superpower. Shining Armor was more or less aware of this power, but he didn't know just how unstoppable it could be if unleashed.

However, once Shining finally learned what it could do by testing it, he decided to milk the hay out of his little sister's superpower while out shopping.

Unfortunately, things eventually ended with a pony in over their head.

Every so often, you just have to stop and take in the scenery -- or at least find a place where you can develop some photos of it. Snap Judgment's been out of Equestria for a few years, and he's just a little behind on the news. Renting an incredibly cheap piece of land near the border of Ponyville, so he'll have a place to park his home/caravan/darkroom without issues... that just makes sense. And it's so pretty out here. Maybe he'll even find a place to settle down.

Or maybe, once he learns exactly why that land was so cheap, he can get a decent head start.

Nopony lives near the cottage. There are a few reasons for that. And sometimes, they come visiting.

It's finally strawberry season.

They're big and juicy and just ripe for anything.

Especially...a fruit bat.

The filly sings. Water rushing all around her, free as a bird, she sings. Is it in pain? Is it from joy? Such a thing, no one knows.
