Written for the Expanding Universes 2 contest for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Group. The prompt was for each of us to submit a story, and then someone else would write a prequel or a sequel to it, expanding the story as we see fit. We're on Discord here if you'd like to join us.

Between Flim's position as co-head of the technology branch of the Crystal Empire's Research Division, restitution for a scheme gone wrong, and a loving, if overly affectionate, relationship with Flash Sentry, things are going great.

But the day has been odd and it seems to center on something about Flash...

This story contains LGBT themes. Emphasis on the GT.

Art Credit goes to me.

Twilight has a migraine.

Migraines can be quite bad.

Weird experimental piece that took third place in Seer's Spookfest - a Quills and Sofas speedwriting contest that took place over a year ago. It was originally written in 75 minutes, and this version has a new ending ;)

Thanks very much to the lovely folks who read and commented during my first ever speedwrite: Mousse, The Legendary Bill Cipher, applezombi, Vis-a-Viscera, Seer, rice, Red, Equus, Novelle Tale, Silent Whisper, Buttery Biscuit, Emotion Nexus, Sweet Banana, Zontan, Hat Man, and Flashgen. I'm so glad I met you all!!

Trixie shows Starlight her favourite holiday song. Starlight really doesn’t like it for some reason.

Celestia's son gets a surprise gift for Hearth's Warming and doesn't know how to feel about it.

Written for Petrichord for Jinglemas 2021

Written with help from Emotion Nexus, GapJaxie, Semillon, and Miller Minus

It's been ten years since six friends defeated Nightmare Moon. Ten years since a mare began her journey through friendship. Ten years since a path far into the future was set for her.

And, to that, they raise a toast in a bar.

Based on the 3rd-place winning entry to ROBCakeran53's 37th Panic Write of the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Group. Inspired by 4EverfreeBrony's Hoping and Friends Up Above. The prompt was Cocktails.

Special thanks to Holtinater, Emotion Nexus, AuroraDawn, Speccer, and Stinium_Ruide for editing, and also thanks to iAmSiNnEr, Xrevias, and Valoria for prereading.

Even though this story is a prequel to Three Tenses of Friendship, it is also meant to be a standalone story. No knowledge of the events in the sequel is required.

Featured two hours after publication! Y'all are awesome!

This story is a sequel to Running Off the Rails

Wallflower is attending a high-class garden party. It's been fun, but she has to leave soon and go back to her life in Canterlot.

She would rather not since that means dealing with somepony she would rather avoid.

Thankfully, she appears to be trapped in a time loop.

What fortuitous timing!

Now if only that pegasus would leave her alone.

Prequel reading is not required but recommended.

Suicide and Self Harm themes are present in this story but nothing overly graphic or explicit.

This story contains LGBT themes. Emphasis on the L.

Celestia has sent her sister to the Moon. It had to be done; she could not risk Nightmare Moon destroying everything they had achieved together. Yet the events of that fateful day haunt her, reminding her of what her negligence led to, what pain it brought upon herself and her sister. Without her sister to ward away the nightmares, she wakes up screaming every night, having witnessed the Elements banish Nightmare Moon.

Yet, tonight's dreams are worse.

Rated Teen for descriptions of violence and blood.

Inspired by Mourning Zephyr's A Sun Without A Moon and On Wings Of Moonlight by Aurelleah.

Cover art by the talented applejackofalltrades.

Special thanks to AuroraDawn, applejackofalltrades, Dewdrops on the Grass, Emotion Nexus, Salespony, Sledge115, and Xrevias for proofreading, and to HapHazred, Shaslan, The Sleepless Beholder, Stinium_Ruide, and Speccer for editing. This story wouldn't be as half as good without all of your help.

Rainbow Dash turns into a ferret. Everypony is somewhat happy about this. Since Rainbow Dash is no longer a pony, her feelings of distress and terror don't count against that.

This is not a comedy.

Written for the Quills and Sofas Genre-Swap Panic. We were given a prompt and a genre that we couldn't write. In my case, that was "The spell wasn't supposed to turn Rainbow Dash into a ferret, I swear!", and my forbidden genre was comedy. Rainbow Dash Ferret Horror, folks! It's a thing now. This one won third place, too! My prize was... getting told I need therapy in the comments, which is, you know, fair. I'm a writer. My brain works in weird directions.
