After Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom returned home from school with black eyes, their elder sisters, Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash, took it upon themselves to unravel the mystery behind their injuries.

Confronting Diamond Tiara about the incident, she simply shrugged it off, denying any involvement and claiming ignorance of the events altogether.

Rated teen for profanity, narcotics and violence.

I put the alternate universe tag here, because the CMC in this universe are disabled, in fact this universe’s Equestria and Ponyville are designed with disabled ponies in mind, I wanted to create a world where inclusion and knowledge of disabilities was a thing, since that apparently does not work in real life very well, in real life disabled people are still being prejudiced and treated differently.

Work in the orchard had always brought Applejack joy. Seeing her cherished trees grow and her apples shine never failed to put a smile on her face—even if those smiles have grown a little dull as of late. She never once complained about an honest day's work.

But now, like so many times before, she has to visit the one place that appears dark even in the brightest of days. The place that reminds her of her failure.

Twilight had done it. Spring had come on time for apparently the first time in quite a while in Ponyville thanks to her stellar organization skills...

What Twilight DIDN'T realize, was that Winter Wrap Up actually already had an organizer in place and that she basically took her position right out from under her.

Just a feelsy little one-shot I decided to write after it was revealed in episode 100 what Sparkler used to do in Ponyville before Twilight. Seriously, nopony finds it kinda sad?

Also, kinda, sorta spoilers for the 100th Episode, but takes place after Winter Wrap Up.

Spike’d kept a question for a long time now since Twilight would always have herself be intrigued by a book and never paid any attention to her Canterlot friends, but thankfully that had changed when her mentor decided for her to move to Ponyville to make some friends.

So Spike finally takes an opportunity to finally ask her.

And the question is: the title

Trying to patrol the dreams of every pony in Equestria can be stressful. To ease her burden, Luna retools the Tantabus to turn nightmares into good dreams instead of vice versa. Aware of her mistakes from last time, she tests it out thoroughly, making sure there are no unexpected behaviors. And as far as she can tell, there are none.

Except that it's started calling her "Mom".

Faced with the prospect of possibly creating life, Luna seeks out Twilight's advice and assistance. With a little luck, they can get this all sorted out before the sun rises.
