This story is a sequel to Check Mates

Three weeks into their road trip, Sunset and Pinkie Pie enjoy a day at the massive Infinity Mall. While waiting for the show to start; the pair indulge in food, shopping and an impromptu dance off at the arcade.

And then they kissed. And Trixie’s heart shattered into a thousand pieces.

Trixie is on the verge of saying something to Starlight. Finally. But then she sees Sunburst and Starlight together, and her world begins to crumble.

Written for the Quills and Sofa 'drama' contest.

A chill in the air. Snow on the ground. A glow of tenderness and togetherness in ponies’ hearts. All signs of the season.

Trixie reading everything she can get her hooves on? That seems more like a sign of the apocalypse.

Written for AndwhatIseeisme for Jinglemas 2022.

Usually, the more skilled one becomes, the more the audience gets amazed.

However, for Trixie it doesn‘t apply. But why? No one knows how she does her tricks, so why are they not in awe of her? Is it because of her lack of real magic?

No, it wasn‘t, even if it‘s easy to blame it on it.

Thanks a lot for ChudoJogurt for proofreading it!

Weeks after defeat, the sirens known to many as the Dazzlings lost their magical voice. Adagio became depressed, Aria shut herself from the world, and Sonata just did what she could.

Adagio used to pay for everything, but ever since that fateful encounter, she was simply too depressed. Sonata thought she could do it, but suddenly, Aria was paying for everything.

Sonata wondered; where is she getting all the money?

Now has a sequel! “Whoa Adagio, Why are You So Small?”

Wonderfully edited by Level Dasher.

Rated T for being run over by a hypothetical trolley.

Everyone hates thought experiments. They're confusing, time consuming, and there's usually no way out without making you look like a jerk.

Today, Twilight tries to explain to her friends why letting them die is technically the correct choice.

What's the deal with ponies? Squint just a little and you can't tell one from the next.
Ember doesn't even need to squint to get the effect.
Who would have guessed that a Dragonlord would have problems that needed more than just an application of violence?

With the memory stone crisis behind her, it's time for Sunset to deal with an even bigger challenge:

A caring Princess Celestia interested in seeing how Sunset lives on Earth.

"Oh, no, no, no. That’s not why I’m here, Twilight. But I’m kind of in trouble, and you’re the only one who can help me."
Just as Twilight was about to reply, Pinkie Pie spoke once more. "Like, trouble trouble.”
