Due to a conversation ending in a bet that Octavia had to have a night of fun, she now has to go out to a 'gig' as Vinyl says and have fun or well, not.

A celebratory story for reaching seventy-five followers.

Vinyl and Octavia go on a road trip. Kinda.

Octavia Melody is an expert at hiding her fear, but in the world of dreams, her subconscious takes hold and she is forced to confront the growing number of nightmares hidden within her. As she faces her anxieties one-by-one, she encounters terrified dream ponies, stalking black-robed figures and an ever-elusive Vinyl Scratch narrowly evading the cellist. Octavia must realize the truth about her terror or her fear may ruin more than her sleep...

This is the darkest of the current four surreal dream tales I've written, but the payoff is totally different from the related stories. I recommend Octavia's story for fans of Silent Hill. The other three are located below:

Rarity's Dream: And then the door opened...
Twilight's Dream: Unicore
Lyra's Dream: The Underville

[One-shot] Ponies tend to assume a lot of things about you, based on who you are. And sometimes, you can start believing those assumptions yourself. It's not until we look past the surface that we can see what's really going on.

[One-shot] After Discord is defeated, all the ponies goes trough a long healing process, but what about Vinyl Scratch? Nopony even realized she was in Ponyville when it happened, but she's planning something that will make sure that nopony will forget her ever again. Inspired by the pony POV series by Alex Warlorn.

"Here you are in Canterlot / It's the place you always dreamed about / It's exactly what you have wanted"

Octavia has lived among and performed for the highest class of ponies for years, and never once questioned her way of living or life choices. But when a fateful afternoon reignites an old memory, she finds herself realizing that she's been missing something: a friend. Now lost and desperate, she can only hope the pony she removed from her life will be willing to hear from her again.

"Regret, Regret / Why did I forget about her for so long?"

Inspired by lyrics from The Living Tombstone's "Ocatvia's Overture" and
"Like a Spinning Record".

Every pony in Equestria knows the names Octavia Philharmonica and Vinyl Scratch. Every musician in Equestria knows and reveres their talent and most semi-jokingly complain that Octavia and Vinyl's relationship should count as a monopoly on musical talent. Very few know their early story, years ago when Octavia had only just left Canterlot Conservatory and Vinyl was... well, being Vinyl.
