I’ve got a bad habit. And it isn’t something I can control. I will put up a bold front, and verbally abuse people for no reason. My name is Vinyl Scratch. I know not when or why this developed... Sometime after I left Canterlot three years ago, when I quit being a DJ, I think. I have adapted to common life since... This... This is my bad habit.

Well into her career as the illustrious DJ-PON3, Vinyl Scratch suffers from a depression brought on by loneliness. Uninspired and coasting through gigs, she can't seem to find anything to fill a growing void in herself.

After opening up to new things and ideas, as well as befriending another pony, she begins to regain her inspiration and fill the void.

*On Hiatus*

Everything looks like it's going to be another normal day, until Applejack finds a lonely, little filly. Who is she, and what is she doing here? Applejack has to find a solution...

Hearts and Hooves Day is fast approaching, and Canterlot's newest musical star is without a date. Reluctantly, Sweetie Belle agrees to let her manager set her up on a blind date--after all, what's the worst that could happen? But when she arrives to the designated restaurant on February the 14th, Sweetie is shocked to find herself sitting across from a familiar orange and purple pegasus!

How far would you go for love? Would you travel across the world? Face peril whatever the danger? Even sacrifice your own being? Rainbow Dash will have to answer these questions as she tries to find a forbidden mirror to bring back the one she both loved and lost. But at what price will it be?
