For a long time, Twilight could feel it; a sense of emptiness she couldn't explain. Now that she's a princess, that feeling is stronger than ever. She finally decides to bring the matter up with Celestia. In response, Celestia gives her an old book.

The contents of that book will change her perspective of the world... and her beloved mentor. Just accepting the truth is a challenge. And after that?

She has to make a decision.

Author's note: THIS GOT FEATURED!? NANI!? (2/5/19) Thank you all! Have a Pinkie hug! Also thanks to the people who've pointed out grammar mistakes, I am not perfect unfortunately.

My name's Sun Glow. I'm a Pegasus working at the Baltimare Weather Department because that's the only place that will take me. The only thing people care about is that I look like a Pegasus version Princess Celestia and I hate it! Day in, Day out, getting mistaken for her, getting comments about it, being denied jobs because of it and a lot of accusations of being a Changeling. I hate it! I want it changed but nopony can change but there's one pony that probably can: the Princess herself.

I never asked for this look and I've had it since birth. But all I know right now is that if the Princess can't change it, nopony can.

Ocellus has been having some conflicting thoughts on her place at the School of Friendship. She loves her time there, and the friends she's made, but she can't help but wonder if there's anything more to it than just friendship. So she does the sensible thing and asks her guidance councilor.

Smolder and Ocellus have been secretly together for months, and after a steamy night together, the tired dragon tries to return to her own room undetected.

Thanks to Freglz for prereading.

Spike has gotten his wings a few months ago, and Twilight can't keep denying that her little dragon is growing up. And as embarrassed as she is at the idea, nopony else can give him "the talk".
Or at least, that's what she thinks.

Twilight and Rainbow both believe that the other takes her for granted. They make a foolish wish that they will soon regret. So yeah, be careful what you wish for, I guess. Turns out even the Elements of Harmony need a good ol’ friendship lesson from time to time. This fic is loosely based off the novel and movie Freaky Friday. Contains Flashlight and Soarindash among others so YE HATH BEEN WARNED. I hope y’all enjoy.

When Celestia told her that she was planning to retire, Twilight was understandably upset. But that was nothing compared to when she found out just what the process would involve. And the rather direct and frankly regicidal role she needed to take.

Twilight and Chrysalis have come a long way in their relationship over the years. As their wedding looms, Twilight is about to learn a terrible secret.

This update was viewable several weeks early for all patrons, so if you want to see more updates like this as well as get access to patreon only stories consider heading over there!

After accidentally learning that each Princess has their very own secret rooms to retreat inside whenever they wish, Twilight Sparkle makes it her mission to uncover just what could be inside Princess Celestia's.

Perhaps Twilight should have knocked first.

This is the moment that she has been waiting years for.

After all this time, Equestria's new ruler pays a visit to her most valuable prisoner to fully map out her failure. Years of deception, manipulation, and betrayals have led to this one moment, and she intends to savor every look that crosses the Princess of Friendship's face.

And after, when the alicorn truly understands how perfectly she was played, there will still be one final bit of business that needs to be settled...
