Rainbow Dash is not a cheater. She's worked hard in life to get to where she is now, and she never, ever took the easy way out.

...

Why does it hurt so much?

One year. It's been one year since a now reformed Diamond Tiara decided to become a better filly, but some things never change. Namely, yet another Hearth's Warming spent all by herself. Then, she hears a noise from the chimney....

A little fic I did, especially for the holidays.

Apple Bloom and Diamond Tiara have been dating for over a month. Diamond has finally decided to come out to her parents in a well thought out and elaborate plan, Apple Bloom has other ideas.

This story takes place 5 Years after the Season Finale, the CMC and everyone in their age group are around 16 Years old. Cover from the DiamondtotheCore Ask Tumblr Blog

Warning: Contains Cute.

Everyone wears a mask. A sweet, charming lady can hide a verbally abusive gold digger behind the smile. The foulest looking hobo can have a heart of gold, and for Diamond Tiara this is a lesson she knows all too well. There will be consequences for her little outburst. Consequences that are far larger than she can imagine

Takes place immediately after Crusaders of the lost Mark. So, ya know, spoiler alert

Contains: Some darn near deadly Daaawwww's and some horrific depictions of child abuse. (really, which depiction of child abuse isn't horrific?

I'm a coward, a wimp, and a loser. I'm never any help to anypony, especially when it counts. I haven't done anything worth mentioning. And my childhood friend is always picking on me. I mean, I know I ruined Nightmare Night, but she didn't have to laugh at me . . . .

I made two of my friends cry. I kidnapped the Princess' bird. I set a Parasprite swarm on the whole town. I don't think anyone would care. I don't think anyone would miss me at all.

I hope that rope doesn't break . . . .

Stargazing is Silver Spoon's favorite hobby. The peace, the quiet, the gentle glow that covers the land, the constellations shining like diamonds in the dark.... But all of that would mean so much less without her best friend by her side. Perhaps tonight is the night to bring up a certain touchy subject, if Silver Spoon has the guts.

Now translated into Polish, thanks to Samey90

One night, Silver Spoon receives a text from her old friend, Diamond Tiara, who requests to meet with her. She gets there only to find her best friend severely hurt, physically and emotionally. With no one to turn to, they spend the evening sharing each other's pain and trying to find some ray of hope in a dreary, cruel world.

Diamond Tiara tries to keep herself occupied during another sleepless night.

Part of a little writing project with Mattricole, seeing how each of us would write a story about Diamond Tiara having insomnia. Be sure to have a look at his take on the idea here. It's a bit funnier.

Also, check out Sleepless, by Samey90, which was inspired by this story.

This story is a sequel to Sleepless

Bat pony district of Canterlot. It's not a place shown on postcards. In the caves under the town, everything looks different. Life, death, morality... Everything is different, except one thing. Crime.

Canterlot. It’s not Manehattan or Detrot, where poor, little ponies commit their little crimes. In Canterlot, crimes are so big, they go unnoticed. Ponies can’t comprehend them; just like an ant can’t comprehend a pony passing by.

But somepony made a mistake. Small crime; a broken body on the pavement.

Scootaloo and Archer both saw many things in their lives. But this trip will take them to places they wished they didn't know.

This is the letter she leaves behind.
