It's not that driving is impossible, it's just impossible for a formerly-hoofed creature such as Sunset Shimmer. She had almost wrecked Flash's car in the past, and to be honest, it would've been funny if she did.

So without a ride to Pinkie's place, Sunset is forced to wait at the bus stop. She could complain about sitting in the freezing weather, or how the bus is notorious for being late and smelling like bodily fluids, but Adagio Dazzle is also waiting for the bus, sitting alone miserably on the bench and shivering in her boots.

Aria Blaze is history's most prolific composer. Writing music constantly for upwards of a thousand years will earn you that title. Now, after a defeat which robbed the three sirens of a magic they've known their entire lives, she relies more than ever on her passion to carry her through an uncertain time. Whatever form fate thrusts upon her, she will never stop making music, and that's all that matters...or it would be, if she could get one roommate to stop pestering her, and the other to stop a downward spiral of self-destruction.

As the Princess of Friendship, the only thing Twilight Sparkle loves as much as books, reading, books, making new friends, books, spending time with her friends, and...books...

...is spreading the magic of friendship. And one easy way to do that is to introduce your friends to each other.

In need of a weekend away from the castle before heading out to the Crystal Empire to spend time with her family, Twilight decides to take a little vacation to the human world...and brings three of her newest friends along.

After all, if Princess Ember, Moondancer, and Starlight Glimmer are all Twilight's friends, surely they'll get along well with each other and with Sunset Shimmer!

Right?

Blueblood just wants to run his charity and be left alone, but High Society - and starry-eyed mares - have other plans.

He's not a good stallion, but maybe he's a better one than even he would guess. Now if only he'd stop being so cynical...

Sunset Shimmer's life has been on the up and up. She turned from her past, made new friends, and is now passing the magic of friendship to others, including this world's Twilight Sparkle.

Which is why, of course, this is all just a mistake. Things got a little out of hand, but it's over now. So now they can just move past this. Why, it'll be a funny story to tell in a few months.

This story is a sequel to Triggered

Sunburst might be a grown stallion, but that doesn't keep an overprotective sister like Sunset Shimmer from smacking a filly.

Just because the episode is over and the end credits have rolled, that doesn't mean it's the end of the story.

This is a collection of postscript scenes, things I personally feel would have (or should have) happened following the events of each episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Inspired by the "Letters" style stories and "Sugarcoat Interferes in Pony History."

(Please note: I'm not writing these in any particular order; when a new postscript is added, it will be published in proper episode order, so don't always assume the latest chapter is the last one on the list!)

This story is a sequel to An Honest Life

Flam's separation from Flim hit him hard. Harder than he ever dared imagine. Now he finds himself wandering the wilderness in search of answers. While in the woods, he comes across the last pony he expected to see. Will this encounter help him climb out of the pit or will it lead to just another downward spiral?

This story occurs at the same time as An Honest Life. It chronicles Flam's journey while he's separated from Flim. Rated teen for swearing.

This story is a sequel to The Mess We're In

Flim was never one to argue with Flam. In fact, if the situation had been any different, they might have been able to work it out. But, fate being the fickle thing that it is had other plans. After a heated fight, they split up. There was no going back, the bridge was burned and the damage done.

It soon becomes apparent that things are never as easy as they seem. Several failed attempts later, Flim is out of energy and ideas. Just when he's about to give up, a chance encounter with Applejack changes everything. Working beside the Element of Honesty was the opportunity he needed. If he could prove his sincerity to her, then nopony would question his desire for an honest life. But, as the days drag on, he realizes a truth that may just jeopardize everything. How can he prove his sincerity when he must constantly hide the truth?

This one has been a long time coming. An Honest Life takes place in the same universe as my long running story, What Changes May Come and runs parallel to This Cruel and Random World. There are some aspects from those stories in this one, but there's no need to read either to enjoy this one. Essentially the events are cannon until the middle of season 4.

Prereading by Asher-N-Hunt-Editin, SageBrony07, and Nomad_Sigma. Cover art by me. This story would not have been possible without wonderful advice from SageBrony07. I can't thank them enough for their time and effort on this story.

What started as a normal friendly visit ends up taking two ponies on a trip down memory lane that leads them both to realize their friendship began even before Rainbow Dash's first sonic rainboom.
