Rarity explores the memories of her wife, Sunset.

To relive all of the little moments that made their life together so special.

And to say goodbye.

_{An entry to the Spring Fling contest}

The morning after an intense high can be pretty weird, especially when said 'high' was turning into a raging she-demon.

Beaten, humiliated, and forced to face her inner demons, to say that Sunset was not in a good place would have been an understatement. Yet, much to her surprise, her emotions were far more in control than the situation would have warranted. Whatever happened last night, it was messing with her, and now she had to deal with that, alongside the impossible task of making amends for what she tried to do.

Unfortunately for her, she isn't the only one feeling strange.

Fortunately for her, a certain someone doesn't think her situation is as hopeless as she does.

My own attempt at a classic fic premise, involving my favorite little bacon horse. Rated T for the occasional bit of bad language.

While not a direct sequel, this takes place in the same universe as Obsession and Ambition. They're not at all necessary to understand this story, but they are connected to this if you want to read them.

Once upon a time, Princess Celestia meant the world to her young protégée, Sunset Shimmer. In many ways, she was the world to the unicorn filly.

Now, the relationship between mentor and student has become deeply strained. Some weeks ago, the two suffered a major spat. As the rift between them grows and emotions churn inside Sunset, she begins to wonder exactly who she is in the eyes of the age-old alicorn who controls the sun.

And as Celestia prepares to leave for a diplomatic errand, she finds herself confronted by her volatile pupil -- and, put on the spot, must find a way to bridge the gap before it's too late.

Ignores the depiction of events in the comic The Fall of Sunset Shimmer. While the story works as a standalone prequel to canon G4 animated media, it is also canon with my ongoing longform story Together from Canterlot to Canterlot, as well as, separately, my alternate universe setting established by What My Destiny is Telling Me. (Despite the name, it is not directly related to my story Late-Night Conversations.)

This story is a sequel to Past Sins

Hearth's Warming is a time for friends and family to come together, celebrate harmony, and welcome the new year. Nyx is looking forward to just this as she rides the train to Canterlot with Spike and Twilight. She's going to meet her extended family for the first time and wants nothing more than to make a good impression. Yet, the sheen of the holidays can't hide the trouble caused by meddling grandparents, relentless reporters, and a paranoid uncle.

On a dark night filled with even darker magics, an insane cult attempts to give Nightmare Moon a body and life of her own, utterly separate from Princess Luna. But, when the spell is interrupted by Celestia, something unexpected is created.

Now, a little black alicorn filly named Nyx finds herself living under the care of Twilight Sparkle, only to be haunted by memories and emotions from her past. Is she Nightmare Moon reborn or is she simply a doppelganger with a soul and mind of her own? Can Twilight Sparkle protect Nyx from those who refuse to see past her dragon eyes and black coat?

Or, will Nyx be forced to inherit the sins that may not even be hers and become the greatest evil Equestria has ever known?

Life hasn't been kind to Trixie. After losing her wagon during her first encounter with Twilight, and her pride in the second, she finds herself in Ponyville once again. She only intends to make amends with an old friend and hit the road as soon as possible. However, a fateful meeting with a pink pony might lead her to a future she never imagined.

Featured! Thank you so much for taking the time to read! I'm quite sure you will all enjoy where this story goes!

WARNING: There are major spoilers in the comment section. You have been warned!

On the night of Christmas Eve, the CMCs are having a sleepover, talking about what to post next as "Anon-a-Miss". Sweetie Belle is getting worried about Sunset, but Apple Bloom and Scootaloo ignored her worries and told her that Sunset will be fine.

But later that night, they were shocked when they were visited by the ghosts of Apple Bloom's parents, who express their disappointment in them and wanting Apple Bloom to confess to being Anon-a-Miss and make things right. When Apple Bloom refuses to do so, her parents then warned the girls that they will be visited by three ghosts later tonight. Apple Bloom brushes this off, thinking her parents were just joking, only to find that they weren't the next time they woke up.

Based on a classic Charles Dickens' story, "A Christmas Carol".
