After a wild bender with her friends, Sweetie Belle learns the downside of consuming alcohol the hard way.

Fortunately, Rarity is there to help her recover and offer her sister advice.

Both characters are adults as this takes place some time between "The End of the End" and "The Last Problem."

Rated Teen mostly for references to alcohol and mild suggestive humor

The only thing more shocking than a letter from their parents is what it says.

Making friends isn't easy. Twilight Sparkle thought friendship was supposed to be about picnics and songs, not fights and hurt feelings. Princess Celestia never warned her about those. But maybe what feel like detours are just another part of the path, and the 'friendship reports' written and abandoned in fits of rage and sorrow will lead to a genuine one...

Written for the Dialogue Only Contest.

So little is remembered about the days of Ancient Equestria. Now, with the magic of friendship restored, the curiosity of Sunny Starscout sets her eyes upon a strange old journal among her late father's belongings.

"The Daylight Horror" by Twilight Sparkle. Between those pages, Sunny discovers a harrowing tale, suggesting that the late Princess Twilight was quite the versatile horror writer.

After all, it is just a creepy story... isn't it?

Zephyr Breeze is a worthless bum — a pony unable to root himself anywhere he drifts to, drowning his sorrows before he crawls back home to his parents once again.

He is nothing more than pony doomed to be torn apart by the winds of destiny dragging him from one city to the next.

Or is he?

Our Town is a settlement where ponies are finally, truly equal through casting aside their destiny and spitting in the face of fate.

In a dim, dingy bar, Double Diamond extends an offer to Zephyr.

Come join Our Town.

Come join our circle of friends, where you can finally be free.

Shortly before extracting the Pillars of Equestria and the Pony of Shadows from Limbo, the Bearers of Harmony faced off against a stallion trying to erase all records of an ancient evil, lest that knowledge fall into the wrong hooves.

Nopony ever considered that the two incidents might have been related. Not until Stygian's first novel hit store shelves.

An entry in the 2024 May Pairings Contest for the Original Pairings group. Last minute best minute.
Rated Teen for implied concepts a bit more grim than what the show could get away with.

Cover from the Friendship is Magic mainline comics, Issue #53
