Twilight, Minuette, Lyra, Moondancer, Lemon Hearts, and Twinkleshine spend Hearth's Warming Eve in a little cabin in Crystal Mountains. They don't mind the bad weather and spend time playing cards, drinking hot chocolate and talking about random things.

A somewhat belated Christmas fic.

A thousand years is a long time for sisters to be apart. Celestia begins to feel again with a part of her heart that went numb all those night ago, but her little sister's return feels almost too good to be true. Luna may feel insecure in an Equestria different than the one she remembered but she now knows how much Celestia missed her...and how much she missed her big sister.

Twilight Sparkle, in a surprise gesture, goes to visit her Canterlot friends and take them all out to dinner, also having gotten tickets to see a wildly popular stage show. They're all happy to go, but Moondancer's noticing that Twilight seems rather... desperate... in her need to see them happy...

A commission done for Alex Warlorn

Twilight Sparkle is not in a good place. Shunned and abandoned by her friends, her mentor and even her family for a thoughtless outburst at the wedding rehearsal. But she still has friends in Canterlot, even if she forgot about them.

Oh yeah, and somepony should probably do something about that whole changeling issue.

Written under the prompt "Warrior Twilight" for FOME's Imposing Sovereigns Contest.

Twilight Sparkle was annoyed to say the least, when her mentor Princess Celestia dismissed her warning of the Mare in the Moon and assigned her to go to Ponyville to supervise the Summer Sun Celebration. 'Make some friends' she says.

The thing is, Twilight already had friends. Friends she's had ever since she got into Celestia's school for gifted unicorns, friends she's taken for granted for many years, friends who she just happens to bump into before leaving Canterlot and invite themselves along to the celebration.

Between the crazy ponies in this little town and the crazy ponies who call themselves her friends, she finds herself at her wit's end while being constantly sidetracked in trying to prepare for the fabled Nightmare Moon's return. After all, it's not like these old schoolmates of hers are going to be able to help prevent eternal night and the end of Equestria as they know it, right?

This story is a sequel to Friendship was always there

After their victory in the 'Longest Night' incident, Twilight learns that she had little to nothing of information about those she was introduced as friends.

Determinate to avoid a possible disaster, she plans to have a get along with all of them to reforge the friendship among all of them.
