I hated her.

She took everything from me.

I wanted to take everything from her.

Then she gave something back to me.

Sunset Shimmer doesn't eat meat for some really obvious reasons. Rainbow Dash is extremely offended about this and tries to change that.

It... goes about as well as you might expect.

It's not that driving is impossible, it's just impossible for a formerly-hoofed creature such as Sunset Shimmer. She had almost wrecked Flash's car in the past, and to be honest, it would've been funny if she did.

So without a ride to Pinkie's place, Sunset is forced to wait at the bus stop. She could complain about sitting in the freezing weather, or how the bus is notorious for being late and smelling like bodily fluids, but Adagio Dazzle is also waiting for the bus, sitting alone miserably on the bench and shivering in her boots.

Hanging out at Sugarcube café, Rarity confronts Applejack about what happened during the Friendship games.

It's the autumn of the girls' senior year, two (very eventful) years since the last time Sunset Shimmer had any aspirations at becoming Princess of the Fall Formal (and three years since she actually won). But it seems the title isn't done with her yet, as Trixie, taking a shot at winning the coveted crown, has now sought out her aid -- by asking her to be her date to the dance.

And, in a move that surprised even herself, Sunset said yes.

But as the two prepare to head to the dance, Sunset can't help but wonder if Trixie, whom she'd grown to consider a genuine friend in the months since the Memory Stone crisis, had more on her mind than Sunset's clout in asking for her hand at the dance -- and whether she herself might have any such feelings as well.

Featured from 8-10 April 2022!

Takes place senior year, two years after the events of Equestria Girls (sophomore Fall Formal), five months after Forgotten Friendship (late junior year) and in-between Sunset's Backstage Pass and Holidays Unwrapped.

This story is a sequel to Meeting Mister and Missus Sparkle

The Grand Galloping Gala: the premier social event in Equestria. Well known as the most glamorous event of the year by ponies who have never gone, and known by those who HAVE gone as being awful, and in recent years, downright dangerous. Sunset Shimmer has returned for The Gala for the first time since she ran away to the human world, and she has brought a date: her girlfriend, SciTwi.

With the reputation The Gala has gotten in recent years, one pony is insistent on having at least ONE year where no guests are sent to the hospital, no new construction is needed on the castle, and no one is almost sent to another dimension.

This can...only end well, right? Right?

No...no it can't.

Rainbow Dash is used to feeling her heart beat a mile a minute... while performing stunts with the Wonderbolts, or fighting any threats to Equestria with her friends. But as she flies over Ponyville heading to the castle of the lavender alicorn who stole her heart she's coming to realize that as long as they're together her heart may never stop pounding. Not that she's complaining.

Twilight Sparkle has to say something, do something to get her feelings across to Sunset Shimmer. A late night in Pinkie's kitchen provides the perfect opportunity. She just has to actually get the courage to do it, or else she'll be regretting her inaction from a world away.

Three distinctly opposite couples have fun with each other around town.

After transferring to Canterlot High, Twilight Sparkle realizes she has a crush on Sunset Shimmer. Being the analytical type, she develops a plan to capture Sunset's heart...using the scientific method.
