After the fiasco of The Fall Formal and Sunset Shimmer, I want to change my life. He wants to prove to everyone at Canterlot High, and most of all to himself, that he can change. Join Sunset Shimmer and watch her life change

Discord is left to foalsit the Cake Twins and Flurry Heart. Mostly Flurry Heart.

This does not bode well, especially since sugar is involved. A wonderland of sugar!

Written for the May Pairings contest, as I do not remember these two interacting much in the show; though I could be wrong and I accidentally disqualify myself because the friendship is not a unique enough pairing, LOL. I will definitely write a sequel to this one.

Slightly based on THIS wonderful fic.

*My story has a lot of slapstick/banter-filled action in the first half, slow-paced cuteness in the second.
(Ships included: ZephyrTree, CheesePie, SugarMac.)

The cake palace mentioned in the story is based on Baroness Von Bon-bon from Cuphead and the Gingerbread House is from the fairy tale Hansel & Gretel.
Yes, the ice cream land premise/cover art IS from Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

Shortly before extracting the Pillars of Equestria and the Pony of Shadows from Limbo, the Bearers of Harmony faced off against a stallion trying to erase all records of an ancient evil, lest that knowledge fall into the wrong hooves.

Nopony ever considered that the two incidents might have been related. Not until Stygian's first novel hit store shelves.

Rated Teen for implied concepts a bit more grim than what the show could get away with.

Cover from the Friendship is Magic mainline comics, Issue #53

When Twilight was little she wanted a friend. Lucky for her, she owned a book with a nice dragon on the front cover. She didn't expect the dragon to be real though! Songfic!
Artwork Isn't Mine!

This story is a sequel to Who Is That?

"What?" Everyone shouted and I winced. I really should have seen that coming.

How the topic of everyone's relationship statuses got brought up, I blame Rarity. I really should have known she would have been the most annoyed at me keeping the fact I wasn't single hidden from her.

Inky Rose doesn't really interact with other ponies all that much. But that doesn't mean she doesn't ever leave the house, and underground shows are exactly her scene.

But the last thing she expected to find at a show like this is Troubleshoes, who looks like he wouldn't know the difference between a goth and a punk if his life depended on it.

Bulk Biceps needs help from Cheerilee. Or does she need help from him?
