This story is a sequel to Going Through the Motions

No pony said that pregnancy was easy, still the whole ordeal catches them both by surprise.

News of Princess Twilight Sparkle's School of Friendship spreads across Equestria, and many young ponies want to be students. However, the high demand means not every one of them can get in. In order to see who would be idol students who'd benefit the most from such a school, all applicants are required to write an essay about themselves and why they want to go.

This story follows one of those young ponies, Sandbar, as he figures out what to write about in his essay and maybe discover why he wants to enrol in the school in the first place.

Entry for The Discovery.

Defeated. Humiliated. Reduced to a mere shadow. But Sombra hadn't been as careless as the time before. He'd taken precautions, set up ways to recover. One such way being the little alicorn residing in the Crystal Empire.

Now he finally has his chance to return. He just needs to convince Flurry Heart to go along with his plan, and soon he will rule over the land once more.

If he can survive through the holidays, at least.

Today is the best day of Twilight's life, for she has just succeeded in her dream of getting into Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. But along with her new status as a student of Celestia, there's also the matter of the unexpected surprise that accompanied her entry exam. A surprise she must now introduce to her family.

Though there were a few bumps along the way, Starlight Glimmer now stands as the new Head Mare of Princess Twilight's School of Friendship. Today is her first day in the role, and to mark the event, she's decided to take the first class with the students. But there is one question. What to teach them?

Everyone loves Celestia, and they do not all love Luna. This is because Luna was once evil.

Celestia does not think that is fair, but she has a plan. If she turns evil and her sister saves the day, then ponies will give Luna all the love and attention she deserves!

All Celestia has to do is become evil... but come on, how hard can it be?

Starlight learns the magic of correspondence with Princess Luna and other friends. She also mourns a candy ship, gets her perks card revoked, and resorts to messages by an owl. She eventually starts dating somepony and freaks out about it.

A fic comprised mostly of letters, but also notes, and diary entries. Some mild fluffy romance with Sunburst later.

Takes liberty with the order of events from the show and the specials.
