Sometimes you don't need a sparring partner for your rapier wit; sometimes, you just need a shoulder strong enough to support you.

Fortunately, Octavia can do both.

Side A has a reading by ObabScribbler.

Humans.

Truth or myth? Ancient lost civilization or just an old pony's tale?

No pony has ever seen one, and most haven't even heard of them. But Lyra knows that these wonderful creatures are more than just old legends, and she's going to find out... and possibly drive her roommate insane in the process.

After Big Macintosh helps the Mane Six out of a jam, he finds his ordinary life of
peaceful routine thoroughly disrupted by the various misadventures those crazy
ponies always seem to get themselves into.

Vinyl Scratch, the energetic music loving psycho mare we all grew to love by a first 3 second glance. This story, is not that different, or so it seems. Vinyl's social status is very healthy in terms of knowing who she is, but something amiss arises within our beloved DJ. Vinyl will soon show us all her hard times and she may soon learn a very valuable lesson.

And don't worry, it's just a sad/happy ending fic, not tragedy sad. So you will walk away from this fic happy :)

This fic was inspired by TsubukiChan on DeviantArt and his flash animation called Vinyl's Silent Wish.

Short story inspired from an amazing picture by Harwick.

Long years have passed, and Twilight Sparkle has outlived most of her close friends. As Twilight's time in Equestria draws to a close, Princess Celestia teaches her student a final lesson filled with cosmic revelations. (And yes, it does actually have a happy ending.)

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

A thousand years is quite the generation gap, so Princess Luna decides she has to get with the times. However, this isn't quite as easy as she thinks it will be...
