My name is Dr. John Trotson, and this is an account of the mysteries and tales that surrounded the deeds of my most faithful friend Sherclop Pones - one of Equestria's most brilliant minds. I do not doubt for an instant that my writings are anything but amateurish - but in any case, please feel free to peruse the book, and dabble in the selection of the fantastic tales that surrounded our lives in the first year of our acquaintance.

An unemployed stallion with no future, a lovesick foal, a shifty criminal, and a phobic nerd find themselves drawn into one of the singing groups popping up under Ponyville's lampposts. Despite their differences, they have this magical chemistry together. They hope that success will help them all out. Things get totally out of control. Yet they get a taste of having their wildest dreams come true.

This one just sort of flowed out of a random daydream I had while listening to Sha Na Na and Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons. I'm trying this very conversational sort of writing style that I've liked from other writers, but I don't know if I can make it work. There's few things more heartwarming than imagining ponies flipping about the street bursting into song like Grease (at least to me). I'd love any feedback on this idea. Thanks for reading.

This story shares the fictional universe of my other fanfics "Midnight Date" and "A Nightly Romance", so some events and characters will overlap.

Many ponies believe that the tale of the Windigo and the Fire of Friendship ends with the creation of Equestria, but their importance goes far beyond that.
And so is the story of the creation of Celestia, Luna and Discord.

When war-hardened Sergeant Twilight Sparkle encounters orphaned friendship worker Fluttershy in a friendship emporium in the bombed-out town of Ponyville, they and about a dozen other characters take part in an elaborate adaptation of the first part of Miss Saigon.
