All Twilight had to do was finish Starswirl the Bearded's final spell. She didn't have to become undead, seal her soul in the Elements of Harmony, or enlist her friends in an effort to fix everything... but you have to play the hand you're dealt.

Even if it's rotting off.

Big ups to Themaskedferret for all her support on this story.

The charming prequel to A Twilight Sparkle Story

The short tale of how I was trapped in a diabolical plot by a certain purple pony, and conclusive evidence that Twilight Sparkle may in fact be deranged.

A cutie mark appears on a pony's flank when he or she finds that certain something that makes them different from every other pony. - Miss Cheerilee

While there may be some fillies out there crusading for cutie marks on what seems to be a daily basis, several of their classmates have already had theirs appear. Haven't you always wanted to find out how it happened? Of course you have.

(The colt characters don't really interest me; sorry, colt fans.)

They may be princesses, but Celestia and Luna are still sisters. Sisters that don't get along too well. And, like most older sisters, Celestia finds Luna to be extremely bothersome.

Luna loves her older sister and wants to be like her. But she can't, because Celestia doesn't feel like talking.

Now has a Reading done by Short Stories

Something I just couldn't get off my mind until I wrote it down. Be warned: the ponies in these battles really go off on each other. Almost exactly like it is in "Epic Rap Battles of History", except with less cursing. There's plenty of verbal bashing, though.

Vinyl Scratch is the DJ for most of these battles, and will be doing the all-caps commentary (except for the ones she's in, of course). OC tag because of slight self-insert.

I've heard that this story is better when read with someone else. You know, with each person doing one half of the rap battle?

...should there be a 'sex' tag, considering some of the stuff brought up in the rap battles?

Quiet mornings before school starts can be lonely, but peaceful. For some people, they're a good time to just breathe and prepare themselves for the day ahead. Fluttershy and Adagio Dazzle find themselves doing this in the same place at the same time, in their own ways.

Based on a picture that was a little too big to be the cover art, but cute enough to inspire some shipping anyway.

Now comes with actual cover art courtesy of SkycatcherEquestria!

Now comes with Trope page!

To feel alive again, one just needs to find the right frequency.

Twilight's friends may have faded away, but their memories remained, forever in light waves.

SpongeBob and Patrick are transported to Equestria, and they become ponies. They quickly become best friends with Pinkie Pie. With the assistance of Rainbow Dash, they form the greatest team of pranksters in the history of forever. Laughs ensue so long as you set your standards low. Very low, dry humor abundant.

This fanfic is basically random adventures with the Spongebob and My Little Pony crew. Please enjoy, and if you have any Spongebob episodes you want me to do feel free to let me know in the comments below.

Princess Celestia believes that Strife, Discord's brother whom is locked up, will escape and use new powers to overthrow the kingdom. So Twilight Sparkle is called forth to aquire an apprentice to train by her side, none other than SpongeBob Squarepants! Can Twilight and SpongeBob and their friends work together to stop Strife, especially when Plankton gets invovled.

EDIT and NOTE: This is meant to take place during Season 3. Here, Twilight is a unicorn, Discord is reformed, and the Elements of Harmony are still around. Also, Season 4-9A seasons of SpongeBob never happened.

(Some minor parts including Strife's design have been edited)
