Sweetie Belle discovers one of Rarity's long-held trade secrets.

And she thought Discord was chaotic.

Always fearing for her friends' safety, Twilight Sparkle takes it upon herself to create body doubles to use as protection.

Each body double looks just like the original.

Sounds just like the original.

And is also highly explosive.

Twilight Sparkle wants you to ignore that last part.

Equestria has been saved once again from an evil villain trying to drain all of its magic. The vile villain has been sentenced to Tartarus, so that she may never again harm other ponies with her evil.

However, Celestia didn't quite expect the villain to be a nine year old filly.

Or that she'd have to actually tell the filly's parents.

Cozy Glow has won.

She has taken over all of Equestria and with her powers she is virtually unstoppable. With the princesses trapped in the sun and moon, Discord put in stone once more, and Twilight and her friends trapped in Tartarus, nopony is there to stop her. Nothing will get in the way of ruling Equestria.

Except bureaucracy.

Gardening used to be a simple hobby in the human world before Equestrian magic complicated things. Principal Celestia finds herself faced with a problem no amateur botanist should have to confront: singing plants. Luckily, the mirror portal offers easy access to one of the best magical horticulturalists in the multiverse – one with more than a century of experience, who is not about to let herself be outsmarted by a bunch of overgrown weeds.

Written for Aragon's Comedy (Is Serious Business) Contest with the prompt We Learned Something Botanical. An alternate take on the Equestria Girls short “My Little Shop of Horrors,” set in the Oversaturated world.

Reading Oversaturation is helpful for context, but not necessary to understand this story.

Rated T for some “adult” references, just to be safe.

Stable. Calm. Orderly.

That was what Starlight Glimmer had sought when she set up her community, a place where all ponies would be equal in everything they had or did. No fighting, no competition, no cutie marks: it would be the perfect symbol of Equality by which the rest of Equestria would rally behind.

But one stormy night, a mysterious mare arrives to question Starlight about her beliefs, doubting whether Equality is truly what Ponykind needs. Surely such notions are those of an older time, and Equality is a future that Starlight can defend.

... isn't it?

This story is a sequel to What Shy Did on Her Summer Vacation

"When you wander probability space, you notice some trends. Trends like Sunset and her friends getting the same summer jobs in a lot of worldlines. Well, ours isn't exactly close to baseline. It turned out a little differently for them."

Part of the Oversaturated World. Reading the prequel isn't required, but provides context for some parts.

"Wait, prequel?"

Shush, Ditzy.

It's the oldest chocolate shop in Equestria, the very first -- and on this night, it's also out of business. The final treats have been sold, the vultures have already begun to circle the equipment, and the proprietor polishes the remains out of pure habit while wondering what to do with her life. But that question will have to wait, as she has one more customer to take care of.

The very first.
