Starlight's redemption hasn't been easy. Heck, it's been hard. Still, at least her birthday would be coming up soon. A day to just relax with her new friends.

But things don't always go according to plan.

This story is a side story to Crystal's Wishes

On the surface, Velvet Step seems like a pretty straightforward mare. She is in the Canterlot Ballet, the dutiful daughter of Sunbeam and Pepper Ridge, and the very best of friends with Crystal Wishes, her fillyhood friend and current roommate.

However, Velvet has another side to her, one that not even Crystal knows about, and she is keen on keeping it that way.

(Takes place after "Rock Solid Friendship". Proofread by yodajax10 on FiMFiction and Smity1038 on Deviant Art.)

Starlight has put up with a lot having Trixie as a friend. Nopony ever said friends were perfect, and Starlight has been willing to give Trixie the benefit of the doubt for some time now.

But after Trixie accidentally infects Starlight with poison joke when she doesn't listen to Starlight's warnings, Starlight starts to question if being friends with Trixie is really worth it, and threatens to break off their friendship if Trixie can't learn to listen.

While Maud tries to help Starlight calm down and reconsider her actions, Trixie seeks help from Twilight to figure out how to best apologize to Starlight and show that she's changed. But are Maud and Twilight up to the task of healing a broken bond? Or will Trixie lose her closest and best friend?

Following the events of "A Flurry of Emotions," Spike attempts to comfort Twilight when she worries about being the worst aunt ever after the events with Flurry Heart at Ponyville Hospital.

Spoilers for "It Isn't the Mane Thing About You"
Also has a side of some previous episodes before this one.

Spike helps out Rarity and engages in a pleasant conversation with her. He also notices something different about the fashionista. More specifically...her changed mane.

Written for the Make Rarity Not Garbage contest from The Barcast group.

Not gonna win, but might as well enter to be polite.

In the Applewood Derby, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash take over the CMC's carts and race them for their own desires. Everyone knows at the end that the girls apologized to each other, the race is done all over again, happy ending. Right? Wrong!

It will take three injured fillies and disqualification for these mares to learn their lesson. Basically an alternate ending where Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash actually get karma for being selfish.

Following the Changeling Invasion of Canterlot, Twilight's friends, Princess Celestia and Shining Armor lament over how they failed to protect Canterlot from the Changelings as well for their behavior towards Twilight at the Wedding Rehearsal.

AU. When Shining Armor and Cadence's love shockwave vanquishes the Changelings, before being sent away Queen Chrysalis fires a poisonous beam at Twilight's chest that leaves her in a comatose state she might never wake up from. As the doctors fail to find a cure, and everypony starts losing hope, Shining Armor is determined to help Twilight return to them, but on the inside he is conflicted by the cruelty he mustered at her the night before and his failure to ask for her forgiveness before being shot. Shining won't be able to live in once until Twilight says she forgives him, but how can that be when she can't probably even hear him?
Will Twilight wake up and go back to her old life, or will Shining Armor's tortured memory forever haunt him?

Twilight Sparkle wanted nothing more than to see the Northern Stars on the Zeppelin Cruise with her family. But thanks to Iron Will, who was running the cruise, her dreams are smashed into pieces. Saddened by seeing Twilight's heart broken, her family does everything they can to try and console her.

Author’s Note: This story is to serve as how Twilight’s family SHOULD have approached the situation when Twilight started sobbing after missing out on the Northern Lights.

This story is a sequel to I Love Ya to the Core

Spike finds himself on a game show hosted by Discord where he has to choose between three mysterious bachelorettes, not realizing that this is a ploy to settle a love triangle he has not been aware of. Who will Spike choose?
Hearts might be broken and secrets might be spilled.
This is a "sort of" follow-up to "Bride of Discord." Not really a sequel, but is set in the same universe.
