From a cider-loving mother to an abusive sister to a workaholic father who could care less about the household he pays for, it turns out the element of kindness wasn't treated quite as kindly as you'd like to think.

But days go by and the trials of the past are forgotten until something pulls them from the deep recesses of your mind. Once unearthed, it's not hard to remember why they were forgotten.

It has been weeks since the defeat of the Dazzlings, and Sunset Shimmer's friendships have only gotten stronger. Whilst finally relaxing in the times of peace, Sunset discovers an old enemy: Sonata Dusk. Strangely alone and apparently homeless, Sonata's luck seems to be at its all time low.
Seeing a little of herself in the former siren, Sunset embarks on a mission to help Sonata find friendship.
