It's a month and a half before New Years Eve, and Pinkie Pie is planning a party for all of her classmates. Only, she needs help. Since her friends are occupied, who can help her?

None other than Cheese Sandwich.

After breaking her leg, Rarity finds interest in watching ponies whose lives she finds rather addicting, however things take a dark turn when she fears she watched a stallion murder his wife.

Inspired by a little film called Rear Window, clearly. What you never heard of it, Alfred Hitchcock? James Stewart? Go check that out, like now.

When Fluttershy learns of a chat circle for weak flyers, she goes, but only with Derpy at her side. At the weak flyer's circle, she's surprised to see Sky Stinger. The three then continue to confide in each other for several weeks straight.

Principal Celestia always has wings in her dreams.

They got her into trouble, once. She let herself believe that they meant she was an angel. Then she grew up, and learned some hard lessons about what being an angel really required.

Now six magical girls have just fought a demon in front of her school. And her phantom wings are itching.

Her life is turning upside down ... and she hasn't even heard about Equestria yet.

Rated Highly Recommended (Top 15 Stories Sitewide) by Present Perfect! "It's f**king flawless, you guys. … The first [6]00-word chapter by itself is a masterpiece."

"Literally the single best EqG story on the site." —Professor Plum
"[One] of the best stories on the site, period." —Pearple Prose
"One of my all-time favorite pieces of fanfiction." –brokenimage321
"My favorite EQG fic of absolute all." -Skywriter

Rated Why Haven't You Read This Yet? by PaulAsaran! "I might have been skeptical going in, but horizon knocked it out of the park."

Rated 5/5 by csquared08! "The opening chapter here was truly something else. ... Then I hit the end of chapter 3. holy crap."

Rated ★★★★ by Louder Yay! "A lesser writer might have made a horrible, cliché-ridden mess of this story, but fortunately horizon is not a lesser writer. For a start, it's by some distance the best portrayal of the human world's Celestia I've read."

Third place in the "Under the Sun" June 2017 Writeoff!  (That first draft has been revised and expanded for FIMFiction.) Praise for the Writeoff version:

"Holy cow ... That's how you write an EqG fanfic! You captured the heart and SOUL of this/your version of Principal Celestia, wrapped it up in bi-universal consistency, and sold me on an idea of redemption I didn't even know I needed." —Xepher

"This is gorgeous. A thorough, exhaustive, incredibly moving portrait of a character who I don't think I've ever seen get quite this much development or attention." —Posh

"This is actually, after all these years, an original take on a story on Luna's banishment. If that's not something to be celebrated I don't know what is." —Quill Scratch, Radio Writeoff

Rainbow Dash, element of Loyalty, fastest pony in Equestria, and a reserve of the Wonderbolts. Life for her is perfect… Until her birthday comes around. As a surprise to this cyan pegasus, her friends take Rainbow Dash to Manehatten, to see one of the Wonderbolts’ biggest shows! But that’s not the only surprise coming to Dash…

The Wonderbolts are obviously attending the grand gala pan gala. Both Soarin and Rainbow Dash develop a crush on each other but never told each other.

The Farmer and the Magician. The Earth Pony and the Unicorn. The mystic and the pragmatist. Who would have though that among the Elements these two are the closest of all?
(Romantic Friendship)

When Rainbow Dash makes a startling revelation to Twilight Sparkle, it sparks a serious discussion about painful events in the past, what the future holds, and self-realization and the nature of destiny.
