Graveyards.

They are where the living pass on into the afterlife. Where the dead rest and find peace that will last them for all of eternity, and their living loved ones come to pay respect to them. But for Twilight, an Alicorn who has laid numerous ponies to rest, and has paid her respects to countless souls in the vastness of her lifespan, the graveyard is a lively place. For her, 'best friends forever' isn't just a saying, and the bonds of a true friendship don't end when life does...

"My dear Twilight Sparkle,

Thank you for your recent letters. And I must apologize to you first and foremost that I have not responded back in kind to each and every one. I imagine has this concerned you, but please don't worry. Things have been very unsettled here in the castle as of late. Princess Luna has been researching Equestrian history, and I find myself in a strange kind of mood..."

Chrysalis corners Celestia about an old debt.

Dodging ensues.

It's been a while since Twilight Sparkle has heard from the changelings. Queen Chrysalis hasn't stirred any pots or burned any stews that Twilight hasn't heard of. Yet, when she is asked to visit the Changeling Hive for trade negotiations, she had to settle the score.

Twilight wished the score wasn't as shocking as it sounded, as Queen Chrysalis had more on her mind than just trade negotiations.

Thanks to Soaring for helping clean up this story's description.

When Cadance comes to foalsit Twilight Sparkle, she finds the young filly playing a pretend game of cards with her stuffed animals. Curious, Cadance joins the game, only to find Twilight is far more serious about her betting than she lets on. Can she help Twilight learn what's really valuable?

Originally meant for the Writeoff Association's January contest, "All In" but quickly surpassed the word limit and was never entered. I really liked it though, and finished it anyway.

Twilight has a question for Queen Chrysalis.
"Just what does love taste like, anyway?"

After letting go of her guilt in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?" Princess Luna is confronted by her creation, the Tantabus, who has a really strong message for Luna despite her victories.

This story is a sequel to Hidden Voices

After winning the Talent Competition, Sweetie has become more confident in her singing and has even begun to muster up the courage to audition for a part in the upcoming school play. Of course, it turns out that she isn't the only filly in the class to be interested in show tunes and Bridleway classics.

Now stuck competing against each other, Sweetie and Diamond will face off to gain a part in a play. But, what will come of the fight between the two fillies when their friends begin to doubt them?

ButtonBelle is a couple in this fic, though it is not the main focus of it.

The fields of magic and dress-making have always been separate arts, until Rarity decides to perform a little "experiment".

The result is a creation so polarising, that soon all of Equestria is caught up by one enraging question:

Just what colour is that dress?

Hello there. My... name is Fluttershy, and I am a yellow pegasus and the Element of Kindness. Though, the Elements are on the tree and we're using some sort of rainbow friendship power... Nevermind. I have been helping a severely injured... pony. I... I'll say pony for now, but she was once a terrible enemy, but... she wasn't, at the same time.

But I fear I cannot help her forever. I think my new friend will die.
