This story is a sequel to Coming To Terms
Diamond Tiara is known as a lot of things. A bully is a common one among the school kids. Among older ponies she's seen as the daughter of Filthy Rich. The Rich family being seen as the most influential family in Ponyville. That's not strictly true.
The Spoon family. No one would think of the danger in the power they possess, because most assume they don't have that much power. Quite the contrary. Diamond Tiara knows this, but thankfully she's changed. Is change going to help anypony?
Chapters (3)
Well. That's a nice surprise. A Diamond Tiara story with Glitter Shell? I'm genuinely pleased by the approach taken with the story thus far. Just noticed the Sequel tag, so going to have to check that one out. Though seeing Snails being called Snails seems to suggest she hasn't picked out a name yet or sees no reason yet it change it?
But onto the story, I like the story so far. I'm really looking forward to more of how we all ended up with these ponies hanging out together. Especially Diamond and Silver's past, at least it sounds like we'll be getting some next chapter along.
Great job so far, if a bit fast paced. Going to go check out the prequel. Hope this continues a steady pace, it really is a fun read.

Yeah, Snails has my mindset with the name thing. She figures that her name is who she is, that she shouldn't have to change who she is, because she was technically always herself.
The pace always gets me, but I think it might steady out.
It's too bad this is in a pile of probably never actually being finished.
I do like the directions this was going, even if some of the events were really convenient. But the piece of the puzzle that I'm completely missing is Silver Spoon herself.
I can get how evil manipulator Spoon works, even how nice b_h Tiara still functions fine. I can't understand Spoon's reaction to Soar's day in class where she clearly wants to ask questions works with the evil manipulator.
Even if she's a pile of self loathing, it just doesn't work together properly. I'm missing something big.

I'm thinking about scrapping this story, not because it doesn't work, but because I don't know how to write it. There is an explanation, but I have no idea how to write it.

Pardon me, my encouragement muscles are a little atrophied (long story), but I'd be interested in seeing where you go with this, if you decided to continue.
I'm not sure if you want to share what problems you're having with this story; but this is your story. It's really easy to be overwhelmed with ideas you might have. And there's more than enough paranoia you might have with not doing justice to the picture in your head.
But you won't get past it without trying. I don't know if you have an outline, I don't know if you've got the characters planned out to adapt when they want to take the story in a different direction.
I do know you've created a fascinating world with characters who have a variety of conflicting motivations, which I personally would like to see where you take it.

Well, more like, my direction doesn't make them same sense to me as it once did and I'm not sure if it's missing anything. I'm thinking about going on to a different story in the series.

Update?
Huh, guess it isn’t done.
Welp, maybe it will be someday.
I liked where this was heading. This was a really great series, and one of the earliest stories on the site that I can remember featuring trans characters. I hope one day this gets finished.
I can feel that dramatic ramp up!
