Having been defeated by the Rainbooms, losing their dark powers, and even their ability to sing, the Dazzlings are all but happy with how Adagio's plan went. But, as they did when defeated before, they will brush themselves off and keep moving forward.. Now they have to continue living in this world, without their powers this time. As they go on, however, they will start to notice some changes amongst themselves, and realize just how this tragedy affected each of them.

After the events of the Fall Formal, Rarity can't help but think about how things have changed. With the knowledge that magic and portals to other worlds exist, her perspective on life has been forever changed. And she can't stop dwelling on that. Luckily, a dose of Pinkie might just be the thing to help ease her fears.

‘Twas the midmost of winter and into the town was a place where laughter, and cheer could be found. Ponies roamed through the streets with smiles on their faces, seeing bakeries, toy stores and other neat places.

Written for the Hearth's Warming Eve Hearth's Warming Contest! (2nd Place :D)
