Equestria is safe once again, and Twilight has found her destiny. Still, the beginning of this new chapter in her life comes at a high cost, and Twilight must come to terms with the bittersweet ending to her latest adventure.

It's not like the movies. Not every relationship is a perfect, happy ending. In fact, most are not, but Sonata didn't know that.

Now she does. And for the first time, Sonata's heart broke.

The worst thing is?

She has only herself to blame.

This is my entry for the EqG 10th Anniversary Shipping Contest.

Despite losing her voice due to a sore throat, Trixie has to go to school today. It shouldn’t affect her daily life much.

Huge thanks to PseudoBob Delightus for proofreading this fic!

Spike's life has always been one of boyish fantasy, lusting after the mare of his dreams and goofing off when not helping Twilight Sparkle. For as long as he can remember, he's always been Twilight's little brother first and assistant second. As an androgynous baby dragon, it's always been assumed that he was male based on what other ponies, namely Twilight, have said. Why would anybody have any reason to say differently?

Following traumatic and confusing circumstances, Spike is left with an enormous question on his hands. How could he have laid eggs? Only one pony has the answer, and it will shatter the basis of his entire life. Ultimately, life is only what you make of it, and it's up to Spike to determine where to go from there.

The year eats away at Sunset Shimmer. It's more than not being in the spirit of things. How will things ever be normal again in her life? Sunset looks to the internet for answers.

This is a holiday story written for Anyone who needs it.

Things are going to be okay.

Celestia has worked with promising young unicorns and their parents for many years. However, working with Night Light, the father of her prize pupil, presents a challenge she hasn't faced in centuries.

After hearing Twilight's favorite Hearth's Warming story, Starlight was inspired to join the celebration... but it's still mostly made of ponies she doesn't know, and musical numbers only do so much.

Good thing there's a pony there who can empathize, and who's willing to listen. Maybe too willing...

Cover assembled from this and this. Set during Season 6.

Flash Sentry knows his friends are superheroes. He loves that about them. But when he gets the call that they've gotten hurt fighting the forces of evil magic, he doesn't know how to cope. He doesn't know how to help. He probably would've gotten a speeding ticket if his dad wasn't the chief of police.

To make matters worse, Timber Spruce shows up.

Recommendsday Shoutout from the Completely Lovely TCC56

Sometimes, watching those we care about suffer can hurt more than anything.

Iron Will doesn't sit down and take pain in stride, though. He's gotta fight back. Like an angry bull. So when the ignorant jerks up at the state capitol decide to be idiots, he has to figure out a way to make things right again.

Only sometimes, there's no perfect catchphrase for the job.

Nothing bonds ponies quite like a crisis. When Sombra has seemingly succeeded in taking over Equestria, Mrs. Shy takes refuge with Twilight Velvet as the two of them pray for the safety of their children.

Death and suicide/self harm tags are used only because they are themes in the story. No actual death or suicide/self harm occurs.
