Before night's arrival, Celestia and Luna discover a ball from when they were young. It brings back tons of memories.

<My first shot at a fanfic! Please give me feedback.>

Luna has always hated her sister's pet-name for her. "Lulu."

Now it's time for payback.

Written as a challenge. Topic: A character gets shrunk!

Sun comes down, Moon goes up. Moon is lowered, Sun is raised. Ever since Discord was originally defeated, that has been the pattern, the heart of stability for life in Equestria, a celestial sign that ponies retain the helm.

But Luna remembers what life was like before, and the shards of beauty which could be found in chaos.

With the second anniversary of the Return approaching along with the associated holiday, Celestia wants to know if there's anything Luna would like to do in marking the occasion. And all Luna wants -- is an eclipse.

Other than Celestia and Luna, nopony has seen an eclipse in more than a thousand years.

This could be a problem.

The epic story detailing how thousands of years ago Starswirl the Bearded defeated the Sirens and banished them from Equestria, how they were exiled to the Mediterranean island of Capri, and what happened next.

“You will come to the Sirens first of all; they bewitch any mortal who approaches them. If a man in ignorance draws too close and catches their music, his wife and children will never welcome him home again; the high clear tones of the Sirens will bewitch him … you must stop the ears of all your crew with sweet wax that you have kneaded, so that none of the rest may hear the song.”
Homer

Luna and Twilight have a conversation at a crucial juncture in Twilight's life. Celestia and Applejack discuss it after the fact.

Special thanks to Nyerguds, Cynewulf, and Lord Destrustor for pitching in on spotting my messes, and to my longtime friends who push me to improve.

This Equestria is much like any other. Rainbow Dash is still fast, still committed, still devoted to being number one. She's still flying upwards and still aiming for the sky. But right now, she's not even aloft. Today, she's going to be and do all those other things without ever leaving the ground.

This story is a sequel to The Mane Six Regret Playing Truth or Dare

The first time the Mane Six played Truth or Dare, Rainbow Dash threw Fluttershy into the portal to the other world. She came out and said, "What happens at the Lit Club stays in the Lit Club." However, Rainbow wants answers. One day, Rainbow Dash and Twilight demand an answer from Fluttershy. She invites them over for tea and cookies, and explains what happened on the other side of the mirror portal. Fluttershy's story will leave Twilight and Rainbow speechless.

Reading the first story is not required, but recommended, especially if you would like to read about more shenanigans.
