Twilight is in the mood to flex her creative muscle and write a story. But when she gets her parchment and quill out, her mind comes to a complete halt. What does she write about? Her idea bank is completely empty.

What to do? Well, why not ask the mare whose mind is always flowing with new and random thoughts?

Random idea I had

Co-written and co-edited by a friend: The Sleepless Beholder
Cadence had enough already. Fluttershy this, Pinkie Pie that. Who would’ve thought that reforming Discord and Sombra would cause such mayhem? They fought over who was the best pony all the time. So she decided it was time to put an end to it. She was going up to Celestia and proposing to bring back Sibling Supreme. It was time to settle this petty feud.

A newly appointed princess, Twilight Sparkle, has struck many with her beauty, but none other than Flash Sentry. An ordinary guard sworn to guard Princess Celestia and other royals with his life. Unfortunately, it is against rules to have "feelings" for anypony they protect. If Flash Sentry is caught loving Twilight, it will destroy his reputation he worked so hard to earn, and be stripped of his position as "Royal Guard".

Flash Sentry must battle his own feelings to keep the job he had worked so much for since he was a foal. As time goes on, it becomes more and more difficult to hold back his emotion and on top of this is an abusive Captain who controls the Royal Guard...

It's Princess Twilight Sparkle's birthday, and the human Eric Reed is part of a big birthday party for her. However, he earlier received some very hard news, has a heavy heart, but he tries to put on a happy face for Twilight. Eric doesn't want to ruin the birthday of who he thinks of as an Equestrian big sister, so he plans to tell Twilight what happened the next day.

However, it will be difficult for him to pretend to be happy the whole day, when he's anything but happy on the inside. Starlight Glimmer knew it, and she tries to get him to change his mind, and don't keep waiting to tell Twilight what's wrong. Because he needed her now.

This story takes place after the events of my "A Giant Adventure to Equestria" story, and it has a couple of spoilers about what happens at the end of it. It's not required to read it first to understand this story, other than to learn more on the backstory of the human OC character Eric Reed, but here's the link to it, if you want to check it out.
A Giant Adventure to Equestria

Prior to Luna's transformation into Nightmare Moon and subsequent banishment, there was always one little filly that appreciated the night sky for what it was.

This story is a sequel to Child of the Night

Helping other ponies with their insecurities and nightmares has always been the job of Princess Luna, and one she took quite seriously.

However, after saving one small filly from a terrible nightmare, things get turned on their head when the filly begins helping Luna instead.

Chrysalis kidnaps Rainbow Dash and holds her for ransom.

This same Rainbow Dash also happens to be engaged to the immensely powerful Alicorn Princess Twilight Sparkle.

Chrysalis is not a very smart changeling.

Finding one's ideal assemblage of beauty products is somewhat more complicated than discovering the perfect mate: after all, when it comes to love, a mare has but to locate one pony. It's taken years for Rarity to learn what works best for her: in some cases, the only things which work at all. Which means that having a crucial shampoo (her only shampoo!) taken out of the mix may create something of a minor issue.

Well, it's surely nothing which a proper lady can't deal with in dignity and grace. Also explosions.

She's still a Bearer. There's always explosions.

Ladybugs. Cute, harmless, helpful for protecting crops.

And a source of dread for the Princess of Friendship, all thanks to her brother’s foalhood pranks and hoaxes.

Or is that all there is to it?
