Time flies when you're having fun. For Rainbow Dash, it goes just a little too fast. Sometimes, you may miss out on life for all of the right reasons.

Twilight Sparkle isn't known to put anything less than her all into magic development. It's only natural she tried her best when Rarity asked her to make an anti-wrinkling re-vitalizing de-aging spell to help smooth some stray laugh lines.

Turns out her best is a little too good.

Now it's up to Shining Armor and Cadence to take care of their little sister, with an emphasis on the "little". Assuming her Royal Canterlot Voice temper tantrum doesn't cause the Crystal Empire to shatter first, that is.

Journals, diaries, logs, all books used to record one's thoughts, ideas and feelings. They act as eyes into the mind of the writer. What happens when that mind is sick?

A cold wind is rustling.

Looks like Rainbow Dash was Daring Do's fan in more ways than one. And Daring doesn't know whether to be impressed or creeped out.

Thanks for the help from my editors/prereaders Pearple Prose and Mr101.

If only there were a "Bittersweet" tag...

Mrs. Sullivan is used to death. One doesn't get to be sixty-seven years old without experiencing it. But she never thought that she'd have to bury her own grandchild - especially not her six-year old granddaughter. The night after the incident, however, she is taken to a world where magic and love might wash away the pain in her heart.

After the changelings' failed invasion of Canterlot, Twilight tries to soothe some of Ponyville's rampant paranoia by casting a spell to prove there are no imposters hiding in the town. But her spell leaves her in an alien body, facing a mob of angry ponies who just don't believe her when she says she is Twilight Sparkle.

Or, at least, she was Twilight Sparkle, anyway...

Luna was never banished, Discord is Celestia's court jester, the Elements of Harmony do not exist, and Twilight grows more pompous and more egotistical every day.

Celestia is not amused.

This story is on indefinite hiatus. I might revisit it, so it's not cancelled, but I'm not currently skilled enough as an author to do some of the things I wanted. Believe me, I've got the drafts to prove it.

Who knew ten words could be so hard to write?

Lightning Dust is my daughter, and one I could never stop being proud of. If only I could have been the father she deserved...

Author's Note: A collab with my good friend Flint Sparks.

Twilight Sparkle is now a princess, and she has acclimated into her position well. This year, she will experience her first Nightmare Night as a princess, but being a princess means sacrificing free time for hard work.

But tonight is not her best night. On this Nightmare Night, the night where nightmares come true, the past will come back to haunt her.

This story was originally written to be for the EqD Nightmare Night contest/competition thing. As you can tell, I have missed the date. But I promised that I would release it, and so I am.

Title is thanks to the Great and Powerful ToixStory. The fantastic picture is thanks to this guy and the picture can also be found here.
