Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle are on the cusp of graduating. It's the night of their last dance, when everypony else plans to lose their virginity.

But Sweetie's not so sure she wants to do that.

Just for fun, Spike and Twilight try to write a Power Ponies fanfiction. Simple and easy fun, right?

Nope.

There are a few things about the fanfiction world Twilight needs to learn if she wants ponies to like her story.

Now with a French translation!

Sire,

The condition on the battlefield is critical. The Royal Guard is far too strong to overcome. If we continue to fight them head on, we will surely be wiped out. Our numbers are few, and our options are limited, but we have one choice that could save us all. The Crystal Empire carries within it a relic of immense power, which could be used to protect us from assault. I will lead a force there and take control, using a new magic I have at long last perfected. Our only hope is to relocate any surviving griffons to the kingdom, and simply hold out until the ponies are in a mood to discuss peace.

If we are to put this plan into action, we will need to draft a large number of griffons. However, due to the immense losses we have already suffered, I doubt they will come willingly.

With any luck, we may be able to survive.

- General Sombra

Pinkie Pie is hired by Ponyville's local newspaper to write an advice column.

Don't worry, she knows what she's doing!

Also, a quick reminder that we are not yet accepting new questions. If you submit any, you run the risk of them being answered in many months. Currently enough questions for up to 24 weeks total (including already published columns).

Tagged random because I don't know what questions I'll be getting.

You know what they say once you hit rock bottom...

During a casual conversation with his brother, Rumble was challenged by Thunderlane to say 'yes' to any and every question thrown at him. If Rumble won, he would get the game he always wanted. Rumble agreed, but this agreement backfires when Scootaloo, who he had been friends with for sometime, asks him out on a date.

This cannot end well.

This story is a sequel to Scotchtavia

After a heavy night of drinking, most of which she can’t remember, Octavia awakens to a monstrous hangover. But even this isn’t enough to distract her from the obvious fact that Vinyl is acting… different. Kinder, sweeter, and much more considerate. Something happened last night, something that has clearly had a huge effect on Vinyl. But what could it possibly be?

Newly-together couple Vinyl Scratch and Octavia have just spent the night out on the town. Vinyl blasted their favourite nightclub with major wubbage while Octavia discovered a new drink at the bar. Now Vinyl has to escort home a marefriend more drunk than she's ever been, and in her intoxicated state, Octavia says just a little bit too much.

Cheerilee catches a massive cold and won't be able to teach class for a while. She calls in for a substitute, but ends up getting an eccentric creature named Miss Frizzle with her even stranger contraption. She can only hope that this new "teacher" can teach without causing mayhem.

Story idea based off this comic

When you fear the cure worse than the affliction, how can you ever hope to recover? For Berry Punch, there's never been an easy answer.

And when she is forced to confront consequences worse than any she could have imagined, it's just going to get harder.

With only her newfound desperation to drive her forwards, Berry Punch throws herself into what might truly be her last living attempt at recovery.

My appreciation goes to Simon_oSullivan, Tired Old Man, and Burraku_Pansa for their contributions.
