When Sombra, ex-ruler of the Crystal Empire, is discovered alive and well, Twilight has her hooves full keeping the tyrannical king in check. Instead of the original plan of throwing him in a dungeon or banishing him to Tartarus, Celestia decides to go with the plan that worked out well enough for Discord.

To reform Sombra.

Pinkie takes the job, and gets right to work in helping Sombra become a better pony. Will Sombra finally change from his old, wicked ways and reform? Or will he instead strangle the annoying, pink menace known as Pinkie Pie?

Granny Smith nurses an ailment one night, and meets somepony from her past better left forgotten. But the pony in question will not be chased off and his deal will not be denied. For honor, for love, for the soul of the Apples.

What if Discord had not been turned to stone by the Mane 6? What if he had escaped?
It is three years later and the Mane 6 have moved on with their lives, all except Fluttershy, who cannot get the draconequus out of her mind. The others are happy in their new and comfortable lives, until their enemy returns and will only relieve Equestria of his havoc in exchange for a bride.

Sleep is an interesting thing. For some creatures, it is a an undesired necessity. Children, for example, will refuse to go to bed, no matter how tired they truly are.

Spike is a child and it doesn't matter how much he's yawning or how much difficult he has keeping his little balance; he is not tired and he will not sleep.

"Bedtime," says Twilight.

"Not without a fight," says Spike.

At her coronation after-party, Twilight gets a little freaked out at the prospect of growing into her new life, especially one specific aspect of it. She knows better than anyone that talking her problems over with a friend can help tremendously, but she doesn't have many friends with whom she'd be comfortable talking about this particular problem, let alone ones who would really understand what she's going through.

...unless she broadens her definition of "friend."

Discord has been reformed for quite some time now, and so far, everything seems to be going fine.

Fluttershy doesn't think so, however, so she sets off to talk to him.

After all, what are friends for?

Princess Celestia somehow finds out about the mysterious Mare Do Well and discovers her secret identity, leaving her furious. As a result, she revokes holding back an old punishment she had for Twilight Sparkle and places the blame on Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie as well. While serving their time doing community service for the stuck-up sophisticated ponies of Canterlot, their track records are all smashed to pieces and Ponyville steadily falls into disarray. As Rainbow Dash mourns over being lonely, she remembers a promise she made to a friend - to become like a big sister somepony always wanted. Having someone to confide in makes all the difference.

Yet another Mare Do Well aftermath story.

Two days after the Mare Do Well incident, Rainbow Dash is feeling pretty rotten about her friends and their actions. But hey, it’s no big deal. Sure she’s feeling betrayed, alone, depressed, forgotten, and all that jazz, but nothing’s going to come of it. Right?

I mean, it’s not like there’s some evil nightmare entity that feeds on pain and loneliness and uses these emotions to turn ponies into monsters…

...oh wait.

Note to self:
Eat that cake Friday! Or else Luna gets it...

Discord scratched his goat-beard-like goatee, eyeing the note attached to the small refrigerator.
"I knew sneaking in here was worth it." He smirked. "Celestia's private cake, in her own private fridge... I'd be stupid not to take it..."
He looked around to make sure that no one was looking.
"Whelp, finders keepers!"
"Discord?!" A terrifyingly familiar voice called out from behind him.
Crap

All Discord wanted was some cake. Sure, it belonged to Miss Sunbutt, but that just made it all the sweeter! It would have been nice if he hadn't been caught in the act though...
And neither one is willing to let it go.

(definitely not my best; didn't really put much effort into it. Just a sort of test-drive on FimFiction.)

After contracting whatever disgusting virus the Tatzlwurm was carrying, Discord discovers that a runny nose and hacking cough are the least of his worries. In his weakened state, his powers have stopped working! Thankfully, he's in good hooves with Fluttershy there to help put things in perspective.
