Diamond Tiara has always had it easy, and been able to do pretty much anything she wants. All that is about to change.

After an episode of rebellion which infuriates her father, Diamond Tiara finds herself stuck with two choices. Military school, or take care of a small orange creature who insists that his name is Russell.

When Spike asked Twilight to help him create The Noble Dragon Code, he hoped a lot of things would happen.

Getting worshipped as a god by legions of theologically-inclined dragons wasn't really one of them but, hey, whattcha gonna do? Them's the breaks, kiddo.

With the recent premiere of the Equestria Girls movie in Equestria, everyone is overjoyed at its success. Except for Spike, who doesn't like that fact he was the only character to be a dog instead of a human in the movie. Which leads to him calling upon a revolution for change on Equestria. Yeah... things blow out of proportion really fast.

Three weeks have passed since Twilight Sparkle was crowned a Princess of Equestria; but many things have not changed. For instance, one hour every day, all of the animals at Fluttershy's home take a nap, and she has tea.

One day, though, her routine is spontaneously interrupted by the least spontaneous mare she knows, eager to talk about anything, except what brought on her visit in the first place. Fluttershy is left to wonder: Just what is going on in Twilight's mind, and can she help her unravel it?

Rainbow Dash isn't bitter about the whole Mare-Do-Well incident. Or at least that's what she tells herself. Either way, she's not going to miss this chance for some harmless revenge pranks, and so she constructs a plan to prank all of her best friends, starting with Twilight Sparkle. All Dash needs is a quill and some paper.

Thanks to the amazing DShou for the cover image.

Trixie returns to Ponyville to confess her love to Twilight Sparkle, and ask the mare out on a date. However, cold hooves get the best of her, and she realises that she must make a good entrance to impress her. And what better way than to show her amazing talents by wrapping up winter all on her own?

"That’s it! The Great and Powerful Trixie certainly is a genius! This is so great! Twilight Sparkle is sure to fall for Trixie!”

“Hey RD! Come pick me up at the ’Acres at seven. We’re goin’ on a date tonight.”

“What?!”

Applejack seems determined, Rainbow Dash tries to catch up.

My name is Diamond Tiara. I am the most popular filly in school, and with good reason. I'm smart, I'm funny, I'm cool, I'm rich, and I'm resourceful. Everypony wants to be me... which can be kind of a burden at times. Alula, get off of me already!

I'm Alula! I'm not quite as smart as DT here, but I'm a really good athlete, and I'm full of energy every day! After all, I get to see Diamond Tiara every day, so how can I not be?

It's been ten years since Rainbow Dash's father disappeared in a wild, fierce thunderstorm. When the same strange storm hits Ponyville, Rainbow Dash does as much as she can to try and stop it from happening again.

But magic has a strange habit of making things reappear, opening old wounds that could change Rainbow Dash's life forever.

An imaginary friend. That is what Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash had decided the mad pony in the box was, but the raggedy doctor was far more than that. When the supposed-imaginary Doctor appears in present day Ponyville, looking as though mere seconds has passed since they last saw him, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy are in for some very real trouble.

((Heavily inspired by the Doctor Who episode "The Eleventh Hour," as such it will contain plenty of references but the story goes in its own direction. Conceived as an 'episode' with subsequent sequels acting as other episodes in a larger series.) )
