Twilight Sparkle never seemed to notice Lyra Heartstrings. She didn't even remember Lyra's name.

They were friends back in Canterlot and even went to school together. Yet Twilight didn't notice that Lyra just happened to move to Ponyville the same day she did. She didn't even notice when Lyra appeared at her welcoming party. Nor did she ever seem to spot her old classmate passing by in the background on any other day during her stay in Ponyville. Some days she could look right at Lyra and never realize that they knew each other.

Lyra isn't a very noticeable pony. She has put a lot of effort into that.

Set in late season 5, after Amending Fences.
Note: Lots of spoilers in the comments.

A retelling of my first (failed) attempt at a Canterlot Wedding AU known as Sympathy For Lady Vengeance, this new story combines the narrative and thematic elements of The Power of the Equinox by Shaded Blood, The Forgotten and Exiled by Slice141, and The Twilight Citadel by Pyrestrike. The main story is akin to The Magnificent Seven (1960), while the sense of scope is reminiscent of Star Wars (1977) and Lawrence of Arabia (1962).

When Twilight is banished from the wedding, she discovers an even bigger threat approaching on the horizon known only as The Storm King. Because her friends and family don't believe it her in the slightest, she decides to unite an alliance to fight the threat before it even arrives. However, they are eventually forced to travel beyond Equestria in search of aid. So, A Canterlot Wedding Meets My Little Pony: The Movie (2017).

The central cast is listed below:
― "The Team":
• Twilight Sparkle (voiced by Tara Strong): The leader of the group, Twilight Sparkle is the (former) apprentice of Princess Celestia who attempts to save Equestria from the forces of evil.
• Sunset Shimmer (voiced by Rebecca Shoichet): The second-in-command, Sunset Shimmer is the first (former) apprentice of Princess Celestia who is forced to assist her former master's current apprentice save the world.
• Starlight Glimmer (voiced by Kelly Sheridan): A pony who strives for conformity over individualism, Starlight Glimmer decides to help Twilight in hopes of stealing her cutie mark.
• Trixie Lulamoon (voiced by Kathleen Barr): A street magician whose tricks may seem more cunning than they appear, Trixie seeks fame and joins Twilight's team in order to do so. Of course, fate is a harsh mistress; when she meets Starlight, she must chose fame...or friendship.
• Photo Finish (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain): A famous photographer from Manehattan,
Photo Finish, much like Trixie before her, seeks to elevate her fame, but she soon gets more than she bargained for.
• Lightning Dust (voiced by Britt Irvin): An aspiring Wonderbolt with a penchant for competition and recklessness, Lightning Dust seeks not only to send her fame skyrocketing, but to become the strongest pony of them all. Of course, this proves easier said than done.
• Apple Cobbler (voiced by Ashleigh Ball): A baker and former cater for the wedding reception alongside Applejack, Apple Cobbler is the only pony who genuinely accepts Twilight's call for help.
― "The Supporting Cast":
• Tempest Shadow (voiced by Emily Blunt): The loyal and fierce henchman to the Storm King, Tempest Shadow stands beside and serves him in the hopes of repairing her broken horn.
• Grubber (voiced by Michael Peña): A wisecracking hedgehog-like creature, Grubber serves as the cohort of Tempest Shadow, bowing to her every whim.
• The Storm King (voiced by Liev Schreiber): The absolutist, satyr-like creature who can control the weather with his staff, The Storm King is not the main antagonist of the story, but instead the Greater Scope Villain of the saga.
• Dusk Shine (voiced by Tom Holland): A young unicorn who is mysteriously granted with Pegasus wings, Dusk Shine is a crew member of Captain Celaeno after his family disowns him.
• Dawn Cracker (voiced by Olivia Holt): A young unicorn who is a big fan of Twilight Sparkle, Dawn Cracker bears an uncanny resemblance to her idol and is more than happy when she requests her assistance on saving the world.
• Captain Colleen Celaeno (voiced by Karen Gillan): A humanoid parrot and the apathetic captain of a band of pirate misfits, Captain Colleen Celaeno may be much more jaded than her older sister Cataleya...explaining her refusal to help Twilight Sparkle at first glance.
• Catrina (voiced by Judy Greer): An anthropomorphic alley cat and cunning yet goodhearted con artist, Catrina has trouble stepping away from her criminal influence. She partially (and we mean mostly) blames her problem on her former flame Nick.

Yes, some of the characters from the movie don't actually appear, but they are mentioned and will in later installments. Also, fair warning: some of the characters may use firearms.

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.

After not receiving an immediately reply from her mentor, Twilight decided to kill some time and head to her friend Moondancer's party. She wasn't annoyed though; after all, the Princess has dozens of duties to perform, and even more responsibilities! It wouldn't be fair for Twilight expect to just skip to the front of the line. Besides, it wouldn't change too much if she sent her response an hour or so later. Would it?

Twilight Sparkle and Moondancer have never been close friends. Sure, they sit together in almost every class and they talk some, but Twilight has never been over to Moondancer’s house or vice versa. But sometimes, making one choice can lead you down a different path and change the course of your life forever in ways you could never even realize.
What would have happened if Twilight had decided to attend Moondancer’s party?

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.

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.

This is a story from the Canterverse of Skyeheart

the story was also edited by him and Regreme

(A request from A Man Undercover who originally wanted to do the idea but eventually gave it up for adoption. Takes place right after "Amending Fences" for obvious reasons.)

Although Twilight's trip back to Canterlot to reconnect with (and apologize to) her old friends was a big success, there was one friend she didn't get a chance to see: Lyra Heartstrings.

Even knowing that her old friends don't bear a grudge against her, Twilight is still determined to apologize to Lyra just in case. And since Lyra lives in Ponyville, Twilight sees an opportunity.

Upon returning to Ponyville, Twilight seeks out Lyra in order to have a talk. But how did Lyra view Twilight's behavior in the past? Is it possible that she holds a grudge like Moondancer did?

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?
