Dear Diary,
Looking back, a scientific, step-by-step plan is completely ineffective for social situations (Note to self: don't do them, ever). Inviting Princess Luna to a Pinkie Pie Hearth's Warming party, with a checklist of steps in your head, was an awful idea. There are too many variables that a checklist cannot prepare for, such as an entrancing outfit. The plan resulted in a spectacular failure of when awkward meets anxious.
For future use, a spreadsheet might be better.

Finally, after years of begging, Celestia gives Twilight permission to access the Forbidden Wing of the Royal Library, a wing so secret even the other princesses can't access it. Twilight rushes to Canterlot, excited for the research potential.

Then she finds those books…

(There's an FAQ here. Please read that before commenting.)

Sweetie Belle had never really considered how so many ponies contributed to the mosaic of her life. At least until she thought she might not get another chance for one of them.

Rainbow Dash has a new problem to deal with. After talking with Princess Twilight, the Alicorn tells her that the Wonderbolts have some new "requirements" for their tryout applications this year. One of those being a required amount of community service hours. To help her friend, Twilight suggests to Rainbow that she go with Scootaloo and Spike on a upcoming field trip to finish her remaining hours. Eager as she is, the Pegasus takes up the princess on her idea.

The next day, everything was going alright... For the most part. When they come across a comic book exhibit at the Manehattan Museum, both youngsters convince Rainbow to go inside and take a look. As they look around, they come across one of the biggest setups at the Museum on a new comic book that has gained some popularity over the past few years because of the characters and the story as a whole. But when they check it out, the Cyan Pegasus gets a strange feeling. Like something about it seems... real?

Note: Takes place a few months after the events of Season 4. This story is a crossover that I came up with based off of Blizzard's newest game, OverWatch. This is a two part story that includes a small epilogue to the events that occurred. I hope you guys enjoy it.

OverWatch belongs to Blizzard Entertainment
MLP belongs to Lauren Faust and Hasbro.

Princess Celestia seeks a method of getting back at her sister for a joke she pulled on her. While searching her room, she finds out that she has a crush on a certain farm stallion and spreads rumors around the Castle, that eventually get leaked out.

Apologies must be sent out for some of the details said, but a very mad farmer mare wants to have a talk over Dinner and get to the bottom of this.

Light-hearted comedy that I wrote while I did my dark story, and thought I would post it as a palette cleanser. ONE-SHOT

On her way to Canterlot High for her music club, Octavia meets Vinyl Scratch and is annoyed by the music blasting from her headphones. After getting yelled at, Vinyl responds by making odd gestures with her hands. It turns out, Vinyl Scratch is deaf, and she feels music instead of listening to it. Feeling ashamed, Octavia wishes to make it up to her, but is surprised by Vinyl's request.

Big McIntosh has a unique way of appreciating music, and Octavia certainly provides an experience. Octavia would love to get in touch with her earth pony roots, and Big McIntosh has the deepest roots around. They could learn so much from each other about why they do what they do, and they just might gain some insight into their own simple gifts in the process.

A holiday tale in which Cheerilee learns the true meaning of the word "wassail"; Granny Smith fails to learn the true meaning of the word "polymath"; and somehow, amidst it all, three flowers finally begin to put down roots. Happy Twelfth Night, everypony.

Now with a Spanish translation by Spaniard Kiwi!

Sunset convinces Twilight to spend a Christmas with her and the girls in their world so she could get a taste of what it's like while accidentally showing her one of the best parts of the holiday.

The Canterlot Archive decides to create a document listing the age of every pony in Equestria. It's impossible to mess this up.
