Sweetie Belle wants revenge for something the school bully did to her but later learns that all actions have their consequences.

This story is staged way back in the early episodes of season one (Episode 8: Look before You Sleep) it is also my semi-first attempt at a grimdark. I would love to hear your feedback.

Twilight isn't having a very good day. An experimental spell blew up in her face, an army of changelings is attacking Canterlot, and she just died. Yet somehow, it looks like it's going to keep going downhill from here.

Given the chance to correct what's gone wrong, Twilight swears she's going to fix all this even if it kills her. Which it will. Frequently.

Sunset Shimmer finds herself stuck in a time loop where she's forced to live out the main six singing a song to help Twilight win the crown over, and over, and over...

And over...

Except, things start to get a little... weird, at one point in the song.

Twilight's relentless study of Pinkie's strange abilities leads to a horrifying revelation.

This site really needs an existential horror tag.

Rainbow Dash’s lies catch up to her and that leads to some interesting revelations about all of the mane six.

A big thank you to Shardikku for help with editing and advice.

It's time for our friends to have a serious talk with Rainbow Dash. It's time for her to move on from her friend's passing. Pinkie Pie is gone.

...Right?

Comedy Crackfic, don't say I didn't warn you.

EDIT: Hey, featured on publishing day, 5/26/20!

This story is a sequel to Princess Celestia The Changeling Queen: Stories Behind the Mask

At the Royal Wedding, Chrysalis and the Changelings were revealed to all of Equestria.

But another mask was torn away that day. A mask born for a thousand years. A mask created on one promise. A mask, that has become synonymous, fused, to its bearer.

A mask that when ripped off, causes Twilight, her friends and Luna to question everything they ever knew about the one pony, one very important pony.

At the Royal Wedding, the meaning of the phrase 'Princess Celestia' changes forever.

NOTE: Chrysalis is NOT Celestia!!! That'd be impossible to pull off.
