My name is Octavia Philharmonic. And this is the story of how my new life. The life that started when I died and became a vampire pony. And it all started with my older sister, Melody Note. But these days, most know her as Vinyl Scratch.

This story is a sequel to The Bridesmaids

[First Person] [Alternating Perspectives][Equisverse Era 1]

Last year, during the changeling invasion of Canterlot, Colgate, Lyra, Bon-bon, Vinyl, and Octavia discovered their friend Twinkleshine was actually a changeling named Meep. While most of them were hurt by the deception, their friendship was ultimately strengthened by the truth.

As fate would have it, Lyra, Bon-bon, Vinyl, and Octavia each have their own equally dark secrets. Ones they hide as deeply as Meep hid her real identity. Time has a way of bringing everything to light. This time, it's an invitation to dinner.

One year had passed since Pinkie Pie had met Twilight, and she had decided to skip a visit to the dentist during this period, due to all the adventures and food she had to finish. However, Twilight convinces her of the importance of healthy teeth, and the two visit the dentists office to learn that 12 months of sweets, sugar, cakes and muffins don't make your choppers any more able. Will Pinkie have to get dentures? Will she ever look at a cake the same way again? Will I regret asking questions in the description? The answer to all is probably.

For Colgate, it's just any other day, complete with scared foals, teeth, floss, gigantic caverns, plaque feinds, and an evil oral menace known as Dr. Cavity.

Just an average day.

While on her way to pay her friend Twilight Sparkle a visit, Minuette has a rather extraordinary encounter with somepony who has a surprising resemblance to none other than her.

Chaos, confusion, and shenanigans at the expense of Ponyville's residents ensue.

Minuette and Colgate look so similar, their best friends can't tell them apart. When they discover that each of them has only one parent, it gets harder to believe that it's a coincidence.

Experiment 247: Day 1

Subject of study: Why does Rainbow Dash keep crashing into my library?

Hypothesis A: She thinks it’s fun. Disproved because Rainbow prefers staying in the air and hates helping me clean up.

Hypothesis B: She’s clumsy Rainbow is extremely graceful in the air

Hypothesis C: None . . .Further study needed.

For the Abyss' competition.

This story is a sequel to A Stallion for the Time Being

Minuette likes strong drinks, good-looking stallions, and Twilight Sparkle (who upon occasion has been known to be a good-looking stallion). Oh, and she's the physical embodiment of the metaphysical concept of 'Time'.

Twilight Sparkle likes books, rationally-developed hypotheses, and Minuette (in any form). Plus, she happens to be the incredibly powerful alicorn Princess of Science (totally a real thing).

Together, they have a perfectly happy (if complicated) relationship. But Ponyville has more than its fair share of mysteries, and when trouble comes knocking... Minuette is there to pretend she's not home.

---

This story is a continuation of sorts to A Stallion for the Time Being, though reading it is not strictly necessary. These short standalone stories are a change of pace for me, focused on Twilight and Minuette dealing with a variety of supernatural shenanigans. More to come as ideas strike me!
