At last free from Opaline, Misty wants what every grown pony wishes for—to fall in love. Luckily, she's got her new best friends to give her advice. And perhaps a secret admirer...?

Casual slice of life, rated T for occasional innuendo. Please don't take too seriously.

Retrieving Grogar's long lost bell was a good start, but Cozy Glow knows that she, Tirek and Chrysalis still have a ways to go before they'll be a true team capable of defeating Twilight Sparkle and her friends. With Chrysalis away on another infiltration/sabotage mission, Cozy has to rely on her other bestest frenemy to be up for another, albeit smaller, team-building exercise. After all, teamwork, just like friendship, has to come from small things as well as big.

Happy Hearth's Warming, everycreature!

It's Hearth's Warming Eve, and Lightning Dust has been drinking alone. She figures it's time to go home, but she gets a visit from a chaotic creature with a job offer. Reluctant at first, she takes it when there is money involved. Unfortunately, the job turned out to be much different from what she assumed.

Written for Whinifree for Jinglemas 2022.

First it was stealing Sunny's lantern. Then it was snatching up little baby dragon Sparky. Misty has just failed in not one, but two critical missions Opaline ordered of her. Though she had tried her absolute hardest, that didn't stop Opaline from really letting her have it—so much so that Misty begins to reflect on where she's at in life.

An alternate take on events that begins in the middle of Chapter 2, Episode 6 ("The Traditional Unicorn Sleep-Over") of Make Your Mark. This story assumes reader knowledge of the show up to that point.

Zipp had a lot of suspicions about Misty, the strange unicorn that Izzy had met in town earlier that day and invited to an impromptu sleepover party at the Brighthouse. But while she'd been exercising her detective skills on their guest all night as the oddities surrounding her piled up, she hadn't meant to drive Misty away. So when, after Misty flees from the party in a panic, Zipp notices that she's still out in the Brighthouse's garden, pacing frantically, Zipp decides to see if she can talk to her, and figure out just what is going on with this curious new pony.

And what she learns may well give Zipp room for pause -- and a need to exercise some comfort skills.

Please note that while this fic is rated E, there is some mild discussion of parental/familial abuse.
