The first worst part of loving somepony is that you eventually have to tell them, that was something nopony disputed. The second worst thing is that they will leave you, or so a certain mare thinks. Princess Celestia struggles to cope with both of these thoughts when she sends Twilight Sparkle to Ponyville.

Little candle, why must you try and be so bright?
Can you not see that the Sun high above you provides enough light?

This story is a sequel to Family Reunion

The Main Six, plus Starlight Glimmer and Spike, decide to take a vacation and opt on a trip to Neighagra Falls to get away from their stressful and often downright strange lives. After exploring the nearby caves, Starlight and Spike are caught up in a mysterious flash of light and suddenly find themselves in Canterlot...except that it's a thousand years in the past! Careful not to attract any unwanted attention (or inadvertently cause any time paradoxes), the two seek out Starlight's great-great-so-many-great's-great-grandfather, the legendary Clover the Clever to return them to their proper time. Along the way, they encounter younger versions of the present-day diarchs, anachronisms, a treasonous conspiracy and an angry witch.

To think...they just wanted a vacation away from the weird stuff.

Set during Season Six; takes place after "The Saddle Row Review" but before "Spice Up Your Life"

*Exists in my head-canon universe

When Rarity gives Twilight a present, the alicorn learns that simple gestures often hold greater meaning.

This story is a sequel to Wishing Werelights

Before she had her cult town, Starlight Glimmer lived her life as a wanderer with a decaying mind. The mare's self-imposed isolation increases the instability of her corrupt ideals by giving them the chance to fester. Her inability to reconcile the loss of her friend Sunburst outlines some of her worst parts, which she jots down in a series of journals.

Here is one week of Starlight's entries.

Set before the events of the show and a prequel to the above story. Vaguely inspired by Regidar's Hypnagogic Drift and You Left Me Standing At My Front Door by milesprower06, but this is related to neither. The title comes from this song. Contribute to the TVTropes page!

When ponies all over Equestria begin to fall asleep and aren't able to wake up, Luna makes it her mission to find out why. Things turn for the worse when Capper is attacked by a mysterious creature leading them both into an unknown world beyond their dreams.

Now, from this world, the two must work together to find out what is going on and how to wake the ponies of Equestria up before it is too late. But they soon find out that the creature may not be the only thing trying to make sure they don't make it out alive.

Cover art is not related to the fiction but is like a reference over Spike's animation he is doing.

Silence. The golden rule is silence. Silence, and obediance.

For years, you have trained as a royal guard. Now, thanks to the fortuitous return of Shining Armour, your old-time friend and Captain, you are promoted to guarding Celestia personally. What follows, though, is the discovery of a personal side to the Sun Princess that you could never have imagined, not even in your most vivid dreams.

Minuette has an imaginary friend. At least, that's what everypony else thinks.

When ten-year-old magic student Minuette comes into possession of an antique vanity mirror, she is surprised to discover there is a creature living inside: A bug pony with big fangs and glowing eyes. Most little foals would probably be scared of such a creature, but not Minuette. Armed with a cheerful smile, she decides to befriend the bug in her mirror and uncover the mystery behind his bewildering predicament.

It's just such a shame that nopony else can see him.

Second act and on edited by Xanni & Brony2005

This story is part of 'The Bugs in Strange Places' series, whose other entries include The Bug in The Herd, The Bug in The Basement, and The Bug in The Cave. You do not need to read any of these previous stories to enjoy this one, as they are not directly connected.

Inspiration for this story comes directly from this fine individual right here.

Rarity and Twilight Sparkle are tasked with one of the inevitable trials of romance: figuring out their snuggle dynamics, and what it means to them.

For something like that, actions speak louder than words.

Heavily inspired by the now-deleted story 'Big Spoon' and with cover art by LilFunkMan. It has been edited by me. Contribute to the TVTropes page!
