Spike learns what it's like to be friend-zoned.

Twilight finds the sports section of an ancient newspaper. The pony on the front page looks strangely familiar...

When Spike returns home early from a gathering he sees something that causes him to go running from their little home...the sight of Twilight and Caramel together.

Once Twilight finds him, shivering and cold, she decides to try to address his fears...by giving him The Talk.

But, to Twilight's surprise, it may not be a talk about basic biology that Spike needs...perhaps something far more important is on his mind.

Sidestory of the Scootaverse

Ever wonder what goes on when the focus of a story isn't on it's main characters?

Ever wonder what a family does for fun when you're not watching them struggling on against life? Wondered what silly dreams and ideas come from their heads? When Scootaloo, Luna, and Celestia aren't out and about trying to find their true places in a world that would have them stand upon a pedestal, they do their best to spend time with their family. All of their family, from the Elements of Harmony, to Cadance and Shining Armor doing their best to drive each other crazy. They scheme, they plot, and they have fun in the time that they can spare for each other.

The stories here are one-shots, slices of life from within the Scootaverse, points in time that don't fit into the narrative of Scootamom, or it's sequels, but still took place. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Celestia Vs. The Great Devourer: It can't possibly be that hard to walk into Sugarcube Corner to order some normal bread and trot out without a bucketload of cupcakes, right? Pinkie and Celestia seem to think so.
Chapter 2: Luna would disagree with Pinkie's treatment of Celestia. But first, she must do battle... with the Pinkie Sense! Can she escape becoming a full moon?

After Celestia deals with her daily tasks, she finds a way to unwind in the afternoon.

30 minute challenge. Done in under 20.

There's a lot more going around Fluttershy's cottage than anypony knew. But it might just be time for it to be exposed... or not?

Checklist for driving to the Everfree Northwest brony convention:
1. Get a map; 2. Pack the car; 3. Discover a wounded Queen Chrysalis...
4. Go on a roadtrip anyway

With the recent premiere of the Equestria Girls movie in Equestria, everyone is overjoyed at its success. Except for Spike, who doesn't like that fact he was the only character to be a dog instead of a human in the movie. Which leads to him calling upon a revolution for change on Equestria. Yeah... things blow out of proportion really fast.

Luna has now become her own mare

Cadence has become a beautiful princess in her own right

Twilight has grown up and graduated.

Celestia now begins to wonder about her own life and if she is still needed to be there for the younger generation and if they still need her to guide them.

Princess Celestia, tired of the constant pressure that ruling a nation puts on her, decides to take a day off and let Luna take her responsibilities for a day, something the younger alicorn is more than happy to do. She disguises herself as a pink maned pegasus pony named Sunny Skies and decides to go walking around Canterlot without any supervision. Unfortunately for her, not all parts of Canterlot are as safe as the palace, and she finds herself at the wrong end of a gang of muggers, who decide to kidnap her for a ransom when they see how much money she has on her.

Luna freaks out.

Celestia thinks it's hilarious.
