Twilight gets a surprise visit from Sugar Belle, Night Glider, Double Diamond, and Party Favor! They've visited Ponyville to thank all the girls for what they did at Our Town, alongside doing so much for Starlight.

There's something that Twilight did, specifically, that Sugar Belle is especially grateful for.
_{Takes place after Season 6, but before Season 7.}

Former and current rulers in Equestria have disappeared with no clear explanation as to why, no closure granted to the civilians at large.
Everyone copes, or pointedly does not, in different ways.

_{This was originally written October 2022.}

Pinkie has been dropped off in a strange house full of frightening creatures.
Worse still, they are talking about her like she's imaginary.
But Pinkie knows they're lying. She can't be imaginary, can she?

A crossover with Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends.

“Please look after my children.”

Pear Butter’s last words were spoken to the stranger who found their crash: the cruel, otherworldly siren named Adagio Dazzle, who sees in her death a golden opportunity.

What starts as a plan to raise willing minions for sustenance and protection goes… a little differently than Adagio had in mind.

Try as she might, the weather's just not Rarity's medium.

Set during the events of Magical Mystery Cure.

When magic goes wrong, it can have disastrous results. For example, you might end up with two fillies when you only expected one.

An episodic tale about motherhood, two diverging lives, and reckless use of incredibly powerful magic by everypony involved.

Teen rating for more blood in one or two later chapters than they'd allow on the show. Better safe than sorry.

Notice:

The performance for tonight has been canceled due to hazardous storm conditions.

Also, seven young girls have gone missing.

If you have any information as to their whereabouts, please forward it to the Canterlot police department at once.

The battle of the bands can't happen during a rainstorm, it isn't Woodstock. Besides, everyone is too busy to attend a concert. Families are searching diligently for their lost daughters, sisters, and friends. They all know the clock is ticking. If they don't find them soon, they will never get them back at all. After all, the human body can only survive three days without water.

There won't be any Dazzlings in the story, it messed up the whole tone when I tried to add them. Still working on my writing, please leave a critique if you liked it, or not.

Sometimes, life goes on. Even when it doesn't.

In which everyone must learn to cope.

[description slightly updated 10/10/22]
What if Applebloom hadn't admitted to being Anon-a-Miss when she did? What if Sunset took the situation to extreme measures? And what if the Crusaders never stopped posting…?

This is the story of the aftermath of what might have happened, Sunset's recovery from the trauma of abandonment and resulting depression, and the road towards healing and forgiveness. This is also the story of why Anon-a-Miss continued to function long after the intended purpose was completed. There will be roadblocks, detours, and maybe even engine troubles, but through friendship, Sunset's wounds may yet be mended. However… as the one behind the wicked veil of anonymity continues to wreak havoc, who else will be hurt due to her desire for vengeance? Why does she seek it, and for what is it sought for? When the collateral damage inevitably collapses under its own weight, Sunset will not be the only one bearing scars.

[END OF PLOT SYNOPSIS & HOOK]

/x/x/x/

Third person. Present tense (flashbacks are in Past tense). Rated T rather than M as there is no explicit sex or graphic violence. Profanity tag may be pushing the rating a bit (frequency of F bombs was reduced in editing). Sex tag for discussion of sexual activity (both heterosexual and homosexual) and implied nudity. Suicide / Self Harm tag for failed suicide attempts, mentions of past attempts, discussion of cutting, and for descriptions of scars. Contains cannabis mention and implied use (not enough to justify tagging Narcotics but enough to mention). Also contains minor character death (of an OC, in a flashback, off-screen), medical trauma, mental illness, and some depictions of homophobia and the usage of slurs.

TL;DR reader discretion is HIGHLY advised. Feel free to contact me personally if you have any questions about exactly what method of suicide attempts are depicted in case certain types may cause you harm. I don’t want to trigger anyone if I can help to prevent it. (I am using ‘trigger’ here in its medical context.)

It has been pointed out to me that there are some inconsistencies concerning the timeline and canon. I will mention that here to spare you further confusion. This takes place in a light AU I call my EEGC (Extended Equestria Girls Chronology) which consists of multiple fics set in the same universe and timeline. In it I have changed, among other things: Twilight gave Sunset the journal in the events of the first film, the Anon-a-Miss incident occurs within weeks of the first film and long before the second, the OTHER Twilight & Sunset are ‘altered’ and ‘taken care of’ respectively, and the Human World and Limbo are now the same location. These changes were made because the EqG canon is literally impossible otherwise, given the events of the show (and has only grown MORE impossible in time).

Thank you all for getting me featured repeatedly!
Thank you for the likes, comments, and favorites!
Thank you especially for the constructive criticism!

Pinkie's parents are missing, presumed dead.

Applejack is there to pick up the pieces.

Please heed the content warnings! This is a story very explicitly about grief, loss, and depression. Suicide is also an important recurring theme, and cannot be avoided!
