It was a week before Nightmare Night, when Rarity decided to take a trip to Canterlot.

And while there, she meets a sweet, classy mare with a prismatic mane, and a habit of saying "Darling". But there's something about her that she finds just too familiar.

And as she'll learn, maybe there's more to this familiarity than meets the eye.

Update (4/8/2023): Now with a Dramatic Reading by Obab Scribbler

Author's Note (11/14):

Sweet Celestia.

Less than 24 hours live and this story has set three milestones for me. This is the first time I've had a story of mine be top of the Featured list, the first time I've had a story of mine get over 100 Likes, and the first time that a story of mine has reached over 1,000 views.

Thank you all so much. I am amazed.

AN: No way! This got featured?! Thank you so so much! This really means a lot to me!

When Spoiled Rich runs into the difficult case of no longer having any staff working in her mansion, she understands that she herself doesn't exactly know how to take care of herself. And with a little issue coming up in some three days, she's going to learn the hard way what her character has brought upon herself.

An arrogant mare can remain arrogant for quite some time - the question is, what gets her to open up her eyes?

This is an entry into the Ancestral Tribute Competition!

Author's Note: I saw this competition but ended up joining too close to the deadline! Kind of how the theme of a three-day time limit is in the story, I myself had a similar thing where most of this fic was written in three days, separated into three parts which I wrote in what I estimate to be eight hours total. I don't think I did a superb job, but this was refreshing and I hope enjoyable!

Also, this is my first attempt writing comedy - ever!

On that note, I also attempted to write this fic like an episode of MLP, kinda - to an extent. I thought it'd be a nice way to guide the process.

Why Spoiled rich, when there are so many other interesting characters that qualify?

Well - if choosing from the best parent was going to be a painstaking process full of struggle as I couldn't possibly choose a small enough number to fit into the entry...

Why not try my luck with a...not-so "best" parent?

Sunny and her friends need to find a new place to live, before they drive each other crazy. But first, Sunny has to admit that to herself...

In "Tell Your Tale", the Crystal Brighthouse sort of came out of nowhere. Here's one possible take on how it came to be.

Twilight and Applejack get more than they bargained for when they agree to get Pinkie Pie out of Sugarcube Corner for the day. Pinkie's sudden obsession with the bakery's back door leads to an improbable adventure that sweeps Fluttershy up in its wake.

Now with a TVTropes page!

Some time after the Battle of the Bell, Discord receives a letter from an old colleague. However, they weren't really happy with the Draconequus pretending to be him over the course of a few months and want revenge for the damage to their reputation... not through normal means, but in court.

Much to no one's surprise, Discord chooses to fight the accusations against him.

The Equestrian Legal System will never be the same after this.

Based on an idea that Jade Dawn mentioned on Discord and I decided to try and make something silly off of it while working on another bigger project that just seemed too good to pass up. Takes places some time after 'The End of the End', but before 'The Last Problem'

Like with my other recent stories, it's just another bit of randomness. Nothing too serious.

Sunset has decided to return home... wherever that may be.

Will she find somewhere, or someone, to call home?

With the end of the last year at Canterlot High approaching, all students find themselves on the crossroads that will decide their future.

Most of them will go their separate ways, only the tightest groups sure to remain together and stay alive though the long distances between colleges. For most, their paths are clear.

For Trixie, it's something quite different.

For how can she decide her destiny when she doesn't know the answer to the question that's haunted her all her life?

Just who is Trixie Lulamoon?

Somehow managed to be featured fourth on 14/8/2022!

Petty Power fully understands the responsibility of being a luggage inspector: he's there to make sure nopony brings anything onto the zeppelin which could interfere with Profit. And those nasty rumors about a potential sabotage attempt? Those have to be ignored, because nervous passengers don't board. Less ponies, less profit. Easy. And here's a group of young mares waiting to pass his checkpoint. Inflicting them with Rules and Regulations should be simple.

Petty is mere hours away from losing his job and leaving Equestria forever. But realistically, he probably deserves it.

Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.

The filly sings. Water rushing all around her, free as a bird, she sings. Is it in pain? Is it from joy? Such a thing, no one knows.
