A flip of a coin. A twist of fate.

Twilight Sparkle, younger sister of Princess Celestia's personal student, Shining Armor, grew up listening to her brother's bygone dreams of joining the elite of the elite: The Royal Guard.

Now, fresh out of the Academy, this young mare is ready to prove herself equal to the deeds of the great soldiers she read about as a filly. Too bad the princess she ends up protecting isn't Celestia.

Twilight wakes up one morning to find everything going just right, and even gets something she never knew she wanted.

A/N: Supposed to be nothing more that pointless cuteness.

Takes place during "Flying Forwards", not necessary to read it in order to understand the story.
-
It's Mother's Day and Twilight Sparkle has plans to visit her mother in Canterlot. Of course, Twilight has to take the filly Rainbow Dash with her, not knowing how her mother will react to the whole situation.

Twilight Velvet and everypony else that cares about Twilight is worried about her. After finding her passed out in her tower she decides to put her hoof down.

Unwilling to sleep in his own boring and less-than-comfortable bed, Spike presents Twilight with a deep and compelling argument as to why she should be his bed for the night.

TwiSpike cuddle time abounds...

Now with a reading by Quillo Manar!

Princess Luna, alicorn of the night and all things therein, sends happy dreams to her saviors on the anniversary of her return from the darkness of madness. One of these dreams belongs to Twilight Sparkle and once again Luna sends her visions of the pony she loves most, Princess Celestia.

Now if only they would come out and say something to each other about it. All the sexual tension in the castle is driving Luna nuts!

It looks like she's going to have to take things into her own hands.

Changelings are known to be heartless and suck the love from ponies. But not all changelings are like this and I can prove it. My name is David, and this is a story of how I found something that I thought was just a bug.

Thank you to BubbleLee for letting me use her art for the cover art for the past long while, but I've made some custom art for it now! Her link will remain as a tribute.

It's hard to forgive yourself of past mistakes when you feel like the people you've wronged may still be harboring ill-will toward you. Sunset Shimmer desperately wants to move on with her life, to accept her new friends truly do love her for who she is, but she can't stop thinking about her past. So what do you do when you want to begin a road to healing? You go back to the beginning and find out where it all went wrong, then rebuild the bridges you've burned to bring you to a better future.

In the episode "A Canterlot Wedding", we see everyone treat Twilight Sparkle rather shabbily, and when she's proven to be right, no one apologizes to her - not even Princess Celestia. How might this have affected Twilight?

Vinyl comes home from a gig to find Octavia passed out on the couch covered in sheet music. This has become a common sight for Vinyl and its beginning to worry her. When she finds out why, she decides to make it up to the cellist.
