Celestia admires Luna. But she does not envy her. The night turns to day once again, and Celestia remembers, and reflects.

She may not have Luna's strength. But she would not trade her gift for all the world.

A month after Gallus' attempt to delay the other students from leaving instead of just telling them his problem, Fluttershy decides to hold a special session on sharing your feelings with your friends. What follows is a series of confessions and discussions by the students about the things that bother them.

This is me experimenting with Slice of Life and Drama, which I've always felt was a place I needed practice. This idea went through my head after watching The Hearth's Warming Club, and I finally decided to sit down and write it so y'all would have something for the Hearth's Warming season, AND because there's not enough of the Young Six, who have become some of my favorite characters in the show.

For a thousand years, there was just Celestia. Then Cadance appeared, Luna returned -- and now Twilight has ascended. There are ponies who are very curious about just what happened, why -- and how. Especially the how. Twilight herself is on that list, a freshly-minted princess with far more questions than answers, about to face a brand new one: what truly makes an alicorn?

And what happens if it goes wrong?

Twilight didn’t know what to say. How easy it sounded, to just not think about things that hurt, but thoughts were all she had.

Thoughts were the only thing that were hers, for better or worse.

Special thanks to lilfunkman for the cover art and for generally being the best support I could ask for.

Twilight and Shining Armor have a little sister named Light Step. Everypony tells Light Step how lucky she is to be related to such great heroes.

Light Step wishes she could smother them both.

I should be brave. I know I should be brave. I've seen it more times than most ponies will ever know. But seeing it on my own for the first time only showed me how unprepared I was. It's so different this way. So frightening. And there's nopony to tell me what to do, how to feel. I don't trust my mind to guide me, betray me. It wanders to horrible places.

I peered into oblivion yesterday.

And I blinked.

I have the rest of my life to fix this. It starts today.

A stream-of-consciousness narrative. This narrative mode is very different from conventional 1st and 3rd person narrative modes and may appear oddly written or be difficult to read. I have posted an explanation of this story and the personal struggles that led to its creation here.

After Starlight Glimmer solves the Royal Sister's relationship issues, the pair begin to spend more time with one another, mostly through conversation during meals. But Luna proposes an idea - a Nightmare Night spent with Celestia. Initially turning her younger sister down, Celestia rethinks her decision, and heads towards Ponyville in earnest. However, she has no idea what this festival involves, and is in for a surprise once she finds out...

Just a fun little one shot for Halloween. It was an idea that started well over a year ago, with a drastically different outcome. But I wanted something more light-hearted, so here we are. Happy Halloween everyone!

Rainbow Dash sometimes flies high for Wonderbolt training, higher than almost any other pegasus. Up there, it's just her, the earth, and the sky. It's more than enough to give a whole different perspective on things.

Twilight finds an ancient book in an abandoned catacomb at Hollow Shades. Upon discovering its secrets, she unleashes an ancient horror on Equestria. But as bad as that is, the poor Alicorn has bigger problems to contend with. Just what dark plans does the dreaded Nyarlathotep have in store for her?
