Sunset Shimmer, who is catastrophically out of Wallflower Blush's league, has come back to town for the summer. Sunset is very kind and attentive. She likes hugs. She keeps coming up with cute little inside jokes. She stares, piningly, when she thinks Wallflower isn't looking.

So, it would just be very easy for Wallflower to get the wrong impression.

Which is why she was happy when she stumbled across a way to know the objective truth about how she and Sunset measure up against one another.

Diamond Tiara's had her go (four of them, in fact) now it's Apple Bloom's turn to deliver some earth-shattering news. How will DT handle it, now the horseshoe is on the other hoof? We shall see.

Can be enjoyed as a standalone story I guess, but this is basically a sequel to too many stories to mention... but because I have no life to speak of, here they are in chronological order: Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement, Diamond Tiara's Second Shock Announcement, Diamond Tiara's Third Shock Announcement and (you'll never guess)
Diamond Tiara's Fourth Shock Announcement.

Enjoy my life's work, and be fulfilled.

After many hurdles and pitfalls along the way, a very special day has finally arrived for Diamond Tiara. It wouldn't be complete though, without an unwelcome appearance from a certain someone, who might be about to make her an offer she can't refuse.

A sequel to (wait for it) Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement ,Diamond Tiara's Second Shock Announcement: Better Luck This Time and Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement, Third Time's The Charm . Reading those in order before this is highly recommended (as well as hopefully, a lot of fun).

Featured from May 14-15 2018. Much appreciated!

This story is a sequel to Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement

Diamond Tiara had something very important to tell her family, but it didn't quite work out. Undeterred, she decides to try again with renewed determination... it can't all go wrong again, right? Right?!

This story is a sequel to Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement. It's essential you read that one first, or you won't understand what the heck's going on.

Theres ANOTHER sequel after this called Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement: Third Time's The Charm . Phew. What a lot of reading.

Diamond Tiara has something to say to her entire family... and they're not going to be too happy about it. Especially a certain female parent of hers....

This should be fun.

NOW HAS A SEQUEL!! Diamond Tiara's Second Announcement: Better Luck This Time.

For some reason, Twilight and Rainbow Dash's friends think they're dating even if they show absolutely no signs of doing so! They were just really close friends...

When the weight of time - both past and future - comes to bear, Twilight writes one, final letter. Seeking closure, she may just find something more.

Pre-Read and edited by Rimmer.

Eight years have passed since Wallflower Blush was rescued from a life on the streets by Sunset Shimmer. Learning to cope with the traumas that put her there—along with navigating a new relationship—wasn't easy. The life Wallflower lives now isn't perfect, but she's proud of how far she's come. With a loving relationship, a fulfilling job, and good friends, Wallflower is content to enjoy the stability offered by clinging endlessly and desperately to the present.

Then, she finds something Sunset has been keeping secret from her, and everything changes.

Now Wallflower is determined to stop Sunset from making the biggest mistake of her life—asking Wallflower to marry her.

Twilight Sparkle is sure that Rarity and Rainbow Dash are having relationship issues, primarily because they keep inviting her to join them on all their romantic dates.

A chill in the air. Snow on the ground. A glow of tenderness and togetherness in ponies’ hearts. All signs of the season.

Trixie reading everything she can get her hooves on? That seems more like a sign of the apocalypse.
