The day after Nightmare Night, Twilight wonders where was Rarity during the celebrations. A visit to her house may provide insightful clues, even if it means enduring a story where, whatever it happens, Twilight can not laugh.

Nor should YOU. Rarity doesn't like it.

When Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Spike get together to play a certain property trading board game, they soon find that even friendships as strong as theirs can be put to the test — and that in the dog-eat-dog (or pony-eat-pony) world of board games, there can be only one winner.

AUTHOR'S NOTES

This is just a silly little one-shot I came up with one night, while unable to sleep. Comments contain spoilers.

Twilight wanted to teach Ember pony customs. Instead, she learned about unicorns, dragon eggs... and Ember’s mother.

Special thanks to ChappedPenguinLips for editing.

This story is a sequel to Unicorns and Dragon Eggs (or Ember’s Mother Conspiracy)

Twilight was supposed to present a spell that would revolutionize Equestria. Instead, she uncovered secrets that the world—and Trixie—hoped would remain hidden.

Special thanks to FloydienSlip for editing.

This story is a sequel to Trixie’s Father Conspiracy

After a disastrous experience, Twilight went to Rarity for emotional support. Instead, she got Discord drama...

Special thanks to fourths for editing.

The coordination is over, and Twilight is now Equestria's sole ruler.

Too bad Celestia didn't mention a few minor problems that come with ruling Equestria, such as where the royal closet is located, certain laws that are incredibly stupid but must never be rescinded, and the curse that comes with the title of Ruler of Equestria.

Yeah... that last one's going to come back and bite someone.

Rarity comes to Twilight to confess a bizarre secret that will change how Twilight sees her forever. Can Twilight handle it like a seemingly normal, completely well-adjusted and mature pony? Can she even BELIEVE it? (The answers are no, and yes, respectively.)

"Did I ever tell you about

the night

that the mannequin came to life

and haunted

all... the... costumes...?"

Rarity finds herself unable to sleep. Maybe a late-night walkout in a meadow will help clear her mind.
Spike can't sleep at night, hasn't been able to. When he sees Rarity walking around at night. He can't help his curiosity. Maybe a talk with her will help.

AUTHORS NOTE: This story was driving me crazy. It came about slowly. I could hear the two of them talking in my head like always. When I write these 1000 words Sparity stories I'm always listening to 80's soft rock songs.
