Derpy tries to find the courage to finally ask out the one mare she's always admired for Hearth’s Warming Eve.

It goes as well as expected.

If you ask Applejack, she’ll tell you Pinkie Pie can be a few apples short of a bushel even on the best of days. They’ve always been good friends, but nothing more than that. After all, what could a hard-working apple farmer and a sugar-crazed party pony possibly have in common?

As it turns out, the answer to that question may not be a pleasant one, but something good may yet come of it.

This story is a sequel to Exes Meet

Sunset Shimmer is a smart girl; she knows staying in her apartment for weeks is unhealthy and recovering from a breakdown requires rejoining the outside world. However, she has not mustered up the courage to do so, largely because she is unable to trust her newfound "friends". She still wants to see them in hopes of proving herself wrong. Well, now they're all coming over to visit. Lucky her.

This story is part of Sunset's Recovery Arc. It was originally the end, but…

Rated "T" for references to self-harm in certain chapters.

Pain has been a reoccurring figure in Pinkie's life for years now. She and Rainbow have faced it together, adapted, and have been able to live life relatively normally despite everything. Though persistent, at one point or another her illness seemed to fade into the background due to their sheer resilience. ...Or at least, that's how it should have been.

This story is a sequel to Odrsjot

Rainbow Dash and the Noble Jury fly east.

The Elements of Harmony didn't work. Nightmare Moon won. Her beautiful night has been unending for over two years now, and her reign over Equestria is total.

Twilight and Pinkie Pie never gave up, even after everyone else did.

An infinity of praise be to Harwick for the cover art.

Time after time, through chaos and through wars, Princess Celestia prevailed.

Of all the terrible forces she could have fallen to, Flim Flam Industry was the last one anypony had expected.

With thanks to gardrek for editing (3-6) and PinkieDP, Ice Star, and Odd_Sarge for prereading help.

The purple alicorn had a question, though she already knew the answer.

The white alicorn had an answer, but it wasn't enough.
