    Twilight Sparkle's friends have lived long and happy lives. Now their time is coming to an end, but Rainbow Dash, at least, will not go gently. Twilight has the power to save her friend's life. Is it worth violating the natural order?

    "The things that pull at your heart—the memorial in the prologue, the wedding in Chapter 1, the births and deaths and relationships to come—are not the point of the story: they are the stakes, and the story is at its heart about a decision that must be made."

    Young Applejack runs from her home and her grief, just as a forgotten princess once did, a thousand years ago.

    "Once upon a time," said Fluttershy, "there were two sisters who lived with their mother in a cabin in the woods. They loved each other very much."

    What are the chances your favorite pony was secretly a changeling all along?

    Yeah, probably about one in one.

    Applejack is convinced that her produce is talking to her. Twilight Sparkle is convinced that only her expert help can restore Applejack to sanity. Hijinks ensue, as hijinks are wont to do. WARNING: Contains puns.

    Written for the prereader Secret Santa prompt exchange. This prompt came from NinesTempest, and my prompt ended up going to BronyCray.

    A prequel to Luna Eclipsed. It seems like a dream come true when Lodestar finds herself working directly for Her Royal Highness Princess Luna, but she soon learns that a thousand years of exile have left Luna dangerously out of touch. This makes for a poor combination with Luna's limitless power and terrible pride. Now Lodestar has to deal with both her own failings and Princess Luna's disruptive struggles to find herself, not to mention the threat of being accidentally asphyxiated by a careless goddess.
