Sunset Shimmer lost all hope in her friends. After all, being turned on so quickly for something that wasn't even your fault has severe backlash. Attempting to leave, she's desperate to find solace. Instead she finds someone she can rely on. The question is whether things will change or not.

Warning: has very dark elements such as self-harm and depression. Be wary and avoid if this is not for you.

Miserably, Wallflower sighed. She was beyond the point of feeling sorry for herself. She just wished someone would.

Sunny would.

Yes, Sunset would. Wallflower knew that, but did it matter? Sunset didn’t even know of her existence until Wallflower tried to erase hers. Would it matter once Wallflower was gone? Everything would just go back to normal, and Sunset could go back to her better friends as if nothing had ever happened.

Because that’s all Wallflower was. Nothing.

CONTENT WARNING: This fic talks heavily about suicide. Please seek help if you’re thinking of harming yourself. You are loved, you matter.

Sunny and her friends travel far to look for a relic of friendship past, but are met with a treacherous terrain, but during the trip, a face from the past shows himself.

This story is a sequel to Cutie Marks and Broken Wings

Learning how to fly had been the start of Tawny's life: a real one, not the shoebox-sized concrete cage her captor had neatly shoved her into as a filly. But the shoebox had been familiar, if claustrophobic, and safe—a known quantity of hoofsteps and ceiling cracks, unlike the outside world of Equestria.

Learning how to live was proving to be infinitely more complicated.

Fourth place in the of the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting 'Expanding Universes II' contest. Each entrant was tasked with expanding the universe established in another author's story—my prompt story was Holtinater's Cutie Marks and Broken Wings .

Cover art by a lovely unknown artist! If anyone knows the name of the artist in question, please let me know, I would love to credit them.

Donut Joe's. The Bakery has been the scene of so many times Twilight and her friends had together centuries ago. The establishment is closed now, the building in ruins. As Princess Twilight, the Ruler of Equestria, takes a trip inside and down memory lane, she remembers the times she had with them before they left.

It's never easy taking care of a loved one lost to addiction, especially when the rest of the world is so quick to leave them behind. Luckily in Ponyville, there's always a light left on in case some pony has nowhere left to turn.

Written for the Feb 21 2021 Quills and Sofa Speedwrite contest, where the theme was "Psychadelics", and the prompt was "Only Option Left".

Scootaloo is just like any other filly. She goes to school, she plays with her friends. Sometimes she feels a bit insecure about her wings, but that's okay.

And then she has to go home.

Scootaloo is now a young mare living through her teen years. After an event in school causes her to break down and fall into a deep depression, she locks herself inside of the old CMC Clubhouse, threatening to take her own life.

===================
Rated 'Teen' for themes.

The world ended.

That, at least, is what it sounded like. Screaming, howling, and then deathly silence.

A month later, Cheerilee and Scootaloo emerge from their shelter in search of food. As they search among the dead bodies of their friends, only one question comes to mind:

Where are the unicorns?
