“Please look after my children.”

Pear Butter’s last words were spoken to the stranger who found their crash: the cruel, otherworldly siren named Adagio Dazzle, who sees in her death a golden opportunity.

What starts as a plan to raise willing minions for sustenance and protection goes… a little differently than Adagio had in mind.

A few months ago, Cherrilee's life changed for the better when she met a beautiful, funny, and intelligent mare in a Canterlot bar.

But that all changed when the Changelings attacked. Cherilee heard nothing from her marefriend for almost a whole week before she unexpectedly turned up on her doorstep, covered in bruises. While concerned, Cheerilee couldn't help but wonder, where did her bruises come from? Where had she been this last week? Eventually, Cheerilee couldn't help but consider...

Is my marefriend a Changeling?

Perhaps asking Twilight Sparkle for advice wasn't the best idea.

Controversial yes, but I lack the skill to draw my own, and funds to request a drawing.

She was little more than a clone, and one that always failed.

It was no surprise, being made in the reflection of perfection, but why did everyone else care so much about her, especially Sunset, who went so far as to marry her?

She went with it back then, but only under the belief that she could be more than just a sub-par version of Twilight. She gave herself a new name to fit that—Eclipse—but that name should’ve been her first clue it was all futile.

Now, her entire existence and use to the world is dependent upon the answer to one question: What does she have that Twilight doesn’t?

Nearly a year has passed since Luna first turned to Fluttershy for healing, and through ups and downs, the Princess of the Moon has come a long way. Though, Fluttershy wonders, why does Luna keep returning to her cottage? She spends more time at Fluttershy's cottage than at the castle, since she can take care of ponies' dreams anywhere.

This story is a sequel to Compassionate Compensation

Celestia has always considered herself a simple mare, in spite of her regal, demigod status, and there are few things that have brought her more joy than her dearest, most irate frenemy. Lingering outside a small gala she organized, she keeps her hooves crossed that her plus-one takes her carefully laid bait and joins her.

This story is a sequel to Maid Up

It's said that turnabout is fair play - still Chrysalis would never have expected her arch-nemesis to flip the tables on her. She'd thought that she was finally done playing her little game with Celestia, but she'd been wrong - so very, very wrong...

After Sunset is left with no family to take her in, Celestia decides to take in the young and extremely gifted mare as an adopted daughter.

This story expands on the background of Sunset Shimmer, how she was shaped by her new found mother, how she developed into the mare she was and how she ended up going down a dark path.

Sunset Shimmer wants to become an alicorn more than anything - it's the entire reason why she's Princess Celestia's student. But she's run out of ways to research it and Princess Celestia has blocked her at every turn.

Fortunately for her, there's a new Princess on the block - Cadance. One who's already ascended. One who knows personally and intimately how she did it.

To get her to talk, Sunset will do anything. Even if it means pretending to like - really like - the Pink Pony Of Passion.

For seven-year-old Sunset Shimmer, Hearthʼs Warming is the best thing to ever exist. Thereʼs excellent food, presents, songs and most importantly, Princess Celestia. Her first holiday with her mentor is bound to be the most memorable night of her little life.

For teenage Sunset Shimmer, Hearthʼs Warming is nothing but a waste of time. Time she should be spent studying and getting ahead. She doesnʼt want to spend hours at dinner, especially not with Annoying Pink Princess there. Her last holiday at the castle is one she wonʼt ever forget.

For adult Sunset Shimmer, Hearthʼs Warming is a chance to atone. After years of spending the holidays in the human realm, she finally has a chance to spend one with her mentor again. Especially after the disaster that was her last winter in Equestria. Sheʼs going to
make the most of this second chance.

A tale of love, jealousy and shifting attitudes.
