Dear Princess Twilight,

It feels strange writing these words, and even stranger writing what comes next. But I figured it was the least I can do for all you've done for me. Friendship is a tricky thing, and I admit I was kind of jealous you came into it so naturally. Princess Celestia made the right choice, and I can only hope you can get through to me where she failed. Did you ever tell her I was sorry?

I'm rambling, so I'll cut this short. Funny things have been happening since you left again, and it just felt right to report them to you like this. Be prepared for more in the future.

Your Faithful Student,
Sunset Shimmer

Twilight Sparkle returns to Canterlot High once more, only things aren't as they seem. Is Sunset Shimmer just being paranoid, or will everything she holds dear in both worlds be at stake?

Spoilers for the ending of Rainbow Rocks.

Sonata Dusk is kinda confused. Sure, she and the other Sirens were defeated at their own game and left powerless, homeless, and hungry, but Adagio and Aria are taking this whole thing, like, WAY too seriously.

Only one thing is absolutely, positively guaranteed to cheer them up.

It's time for a taco run!

Now with 20% more Feels!

Also now with a TVTropes page (apparently)!

In the aftermath of a huge explosion in the Everfree Forest, Ponyville soon finds itself as the new home for Lucario, an "Aura Pokemon" from another dimension. While he avoids explaining what has happened to him and where he came from, he repays his new friends' kindness by protecting them from the evil forces that suddenly appears around Equestria.

Meanwhile, a certain princess of the night watches his every move, unable to judge if this new visitor will bring safety or utter destruction upon the land.

(This story primarily takes place between season 2 and season 3. Elements from season 3 and beyond may occur, but won't have a significant impact on the plot.)

After all the problems that Trixie has been through she is now finally starting to get her life together until one day she is summoned by Princess Twilight. Twilight tells Trixie of the greatness she has accomplished for her new kindness but that will not change her completely. She is tasked by the Princess of friendship to accomplish a feat of true love and kindness to prove that she has truly changed for the better. After leaving to attend her quest Trixie devises a plan to prove her new image after speaking with the cutie mark crusaders, and decides to adopt the young Scootaloo. Will her plan work out for her, or will there be more difficulties then she had originally planned.

Turning thirty can bring out the worst in some ponies. Sweetie Belle just turned thirty and is not in the least happy about it. Add being single and having numerous ponies thinking she'll retire from the music scene just because of her age doesn't exactly help out. So in an attempt to show that the big 3-0 isn't as sucky as it seems, The Mane Six and Spike recount their own crazy thirtieths. Tales ranging from drunken princesses, Gummy, mountains of tissues, Las Pegasus, flying, a forced day off, and even a little romance.

Inspired by the show FRIENDS

I know the image a little weird, with the Korean letters and all, but it is literally all I could find with ALL the main cast partying and fitting the 1MB max requirement.

A direct follow-up to Rainbow Rocks, and thus full of spoilers!

The Dazzlings are now "harmless, ordinary teenage girls", deprived of their talents of persuasion. They won't stand for this, but will they be able to strike back at those who hurt them? Will they be able to adjust to the normal life? Will they be found out? These girls haven't given their swan songs yet!

It was Friday night and Twilight Sparkle was at home enjoying the night with a good book and comfortable lounging chair. That was of course until her friends dragged her away for a night of fun. Now its Saturday morning and she has a powerful hangover...And a wife?

Join Twilight as she goes on a quest to discover. What Did She Do Last Night?
