Trixie has not had it easy since the alicorn amulet had corrupted her.
Her hopes for the future dashed, she has moved to the Everfree Forest with only a hallucination to comfort her.
When even the forest chases her away she will need to depend upon the goodness and generosity of another for the first time in a long while.

In the distant future, year 2205, the United Earth Government Expeditionary Fleet has spread the roots of mankind across planets in the most remote of places. Along the way, we have documented the life that thrives on these exotic worlds, learned much about the greater galaxy.

Expansion is key, and knowledge is power in this day and age.

Never before in any documented finding has man seen another sapient species beyond himself. When the scouting crews from the U.E.G.S Clarke suddenly find that they are not truly alone in the universe, it will be time to put to the test the First Contact situation they had never prepared for.

As an immortal alicorn princess, Twilight Sparkle has lived for a long time. However, her friends were mortal ponies, and they eventually all died. A hundred years after they have all passed on, Twilight can only think about them, and how much they meant to her. Now that they are nothing but memories, how can she carry on?

The answers she seeks may come from a most unexpected source: another alicorn, one who once threatened to cover Equestria in eternal darkness, but whom Twilight considers a daughter. With her help, Twilight might just find that she is truly not alone.

This story takes place after the events of Magical Mystery Cure and Past Sins, which was written by Pen Stroke. Nyx and Past Sins belong to Pen Stroke.

Also, check out this CinemaSins-Style review.

Waking up in an alternate universe in which you are a supervillain can be hard.

Finding out your friends are rebels trying to kill or overthrow you isn't very easy to deal with either.

But trying to solve the situation? That's a real horn cracker.

30 years have passed since Twilight's coronation and Discord's reformation. 31 years have gone by since Nyx's birth. The black alicorn has become a hero all this time, thank to all the friendships she has made.

A new age approaches as Nyx is told of a rumor that a spell from Equestria's founding may save a kind from eternal suffering. To do that, she must set of on a quest to understand and gain enough power to perform it.

But the kind she is hoping to save has counteracting ideas...

I recommend Reading Jussonic's stories to understand some things

Rainbow Dash spends extended amounts of time with Twilight at the library. Being even lazier than usual, she starts to exercise less for the sake of reading. At the same time, her intake of delicious sugary snacks increases, but not without the help of the friendly librarian.
Why is the unicorn letting her eat so much? And why doesn't the pegasus really mind?
Note: Twidash fic, with chubby dash. Somewhat suggestive. Not over/forced feeding.

It's a normal day for Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle but Apple Bloom is missing...yet again. With Apple Bloom missing the two remaining crusaders decide to held out and have some fun on their own. Imagine their surprise when they find Apple Bloom coming out of Sugarcube Corner with Diamond Tiara!

Second Learning to Love Story. Have to read the first one to get some of the stuff mentioned in this one.

Spartans never die, they're just missing in action. This has never been more true for Jorge-052 as, after activating the slipspace drive that was supposed to kill him, he is instead flung into a strange world where war is but a distant memory. Will the aging soldier be able to adapt to this new peaceful planet? Or will his only salvation be found in finding a way back to his own chaotic universe?

THIS STORY IS NO LONGER BEING WORKED ON. THE IDEA IS UP FOR GRABS; PLEASE CHECK MY USER PAGE FOR MORE INFORMATION.

Humanity has had the urge to learn and understand since the dawn of their species as Homo Sapiens. From the first telescopes and the study of the stars by sailors, to the colonization of new worlds, Human beings have pursued the unquenchable thirst for knowledge in all of its forms, no matter what the cost.

Now, in the year 4025, long after Humanity began expanding their reach into the deep expanse of space, a new world is found that defies all laws of physics and reality...

There are reasons why The Great and Powerful Trixie chooses to wear an informal - and admittedly childish - cape which covers her flank. These reasons remained concealed...until now. While Twilight's parents are visiting her in Ponyville during her performance at the end of "Magic Duel," Twilight connects the dots and discovers a secret about Trixie which changes everything.
