Celestia hasn't taken one day off since she banished Nightmare Moon all those years ago. Its hard to believe, but when you had to rule a kingdom by yourself for a thousand years, it becomes second nature to never stop working.

But Luna thinks she would benefit from spending the day with her as sisters, the same way they did when they were fillies. It would nice to get out of the castle for a day, letting their manes hang loose. And so Celestia takes her up on the idea.

At the same time, Celestia has been experiencing nightmares about a certain day of her life. It continues to haunt her, but she doesn't know why for sure. Maybe today, she can get past it...

A story about growing up.

A special thanks to all the friends without whom this story would be much less. You guys are the best.

Princess Celestia, Regent of the Sun, has long guided the ponies of Equestria with a gentle and caring hoof. Never once did she allow herself to be swayed by thoughts of power, nor did she turn away from her subjects in their times of need. A ruler rightfully adored, she has helped an uncountable amount of ponies with their lives, finding their dreams, and fulfilling their destinies.

But comes the day she had long dreaded, but never feared.

Twilight Sparkle, her dutiful and precious student, has fulfilled her destiny and has become a new princess for Equestria. With her new role comes many responsibilities, but for a curious mare such as herself, so to come the questions. What does it mean to be an alicorn? What does it meant to be a princess? But more importantly than anything else, why is Princess Celestia an immortal, but Twilight Sparkle not?

It is a question the Princess of the Sun must now answer. Her last secret to be told to her greatest student.

Celestia is feeling especially lonely on the first Hearth Warming's Eve without her sister. She makes one desperate attempt to send her a gift.

Princess Celestia has been keeping a dark secret from her subjects for a very long time.

It's not an easy truth to tell, but if anyone can accept her after learning it, it will surely be her most faithful student.

Owen awakes one morning to find tiny ponies populating his home. Like any rational person, he proceeds to cry like a little girl.

Luna has been a fan of gaming ever since her sister introduced her to it. She's always been a fan of first person shooters and the occasional third person. She's never been a fan of simple games, but decides to give her sister's favorite game a shot, simply to humor her. It's not like the game she likes is Gears of War or Dead Space, so it can't be too good...Right?

A short story I did because I was bored and was waiting to get enough cookies to get the Anti-matter Condenser on my own game of Cookie Clicker. Not meant to be a good story, just something fun I wanted to put out.
