That love can be a painful thing is something we both know all too well, sister. But it does not give you the right to throw your happiness away for mine...

I will not ask for your thanks for what I do now. I only ask for your forgiveness, and perhaps a promise to let yourself be happy.

At her coronation after-party, Twilight gets a little freaked out at the prospect of growing into her new life, especially one specific aspect of it. She knows better than anyone that talking her problems over with a friend can help tremendously, but she doesn't have many friends with whom she'd be comfortable talking about this particular problem, let alone ones who would really understand what she's going through.

...unless she broadens her definition of "friend."

Everypony has one 'Longest Night', a night that just never seems to end, whether they want it to end or not. For Celestia, her Longest Night began on the first night she had to raise her sister's moon.

Heartbroken and filled with despair that she may never see her sister again, Celestia makes a wish upon a falling star to see her sister one more time. Little did she realise that the stars listen.

A one-shot story of two sisters, and one Faithful Student.

It's been a while since Discord's reformation. Most mortals are still intimidated by him, scared of him, but that's only to be expected. But Discord isn't looking for their approval; they'll come around, in time. He wants someone else's.

Mortal life is too short to hold a grudge for long. Immortal life is a different story. And even the greatest of the great have sore spots.

Discord visits Celestia to try and comprehend why the princess does so many unusual and inane things. He simply just doesn't understand her.

This is one of the stories I had planned in the long run. I had thought that it would be an interesting topic to delve upon and it would be a good way for me to experiment with heavy dialog and drama. It also was a way for me to try and write Discord and see how I personally perceived his character and I admit that it's a rather different approach than what you'd normally see on this website. Overall, I guess I'm just testing some waters out here.

Celestia will be reprimanded hard in this story, just to let you know. I love Celestia, I really do, but there's truly little we know of her and by introducing specific headcanons to explain some discrepancies, it's possible to view her in a rather negative light. That being said, she is the protagonist of this story and though this may be A headcanon, it is most definitely not MY headcanon.

I wrote this sometime in the middle of the night (give or take, four or five in the morning) so the congruency of this story is slightly questionable. It's really just a conglomeration of different ideas that came to my head at the time that never really ties together in end. Essentially, I'm just warning that it may seem like an odd read when you're done.

I would've written this story much later – I actually wanted to finish the romance one I'm working on first – but I'm trying to get back into a writing mood. I haven't been on a computer in over a week and I just can't finish the last chapter of that other story. I feel that I don't have the gumption for it yet. I hoped that by writing this, I would be able to get back on track. We'll see how that goes.

As for the cover art, I would have given it one but I'd also need to get into a drawing mood for that particular shtick. Unfortunately, that usually takes longer for me to get into than wanting to write. If you're willing to make cover art for me, that would be fantastic and I would very much appreciate it. If not, that's fine. I can make it some other time.

Truth be told, I'm not sure if this story is even good. I guess I'll just let the masses decide. I hope you guys enjoy the story and a comment of any kind would be appreciative.

Discord has lived for quite a long time. Centuries as a ruler, a millennium as a rock, years as a reformed draconequus, it all gets very tiring. A nap is exactly what he needs. But when you live forever, time loses its meaning, years pass in the blink of an eye, mortals come and go like mayflies. And that's fine.
After all, any being that is truly important will live forever. Discord would never associate with anything less.

The alicorns have seperated themselves from pony society and conduct research in secret.

At the same time a young Princess Celestia can't wait to meet her new baby sister, little does she know this day will be one of the worst she will ever experience.
