Millions of years in the future, Celestia and Luna watch over a dying world. Its surface is a cracked, barren wasteland, baked by a dying sun. The ocean is a caustic soup, choked with salt. Few creatures can survive this hellish future, and even their days are limited.

Princess Flurry Heart has found something at school that she wants more than anything else in the world. Something she will do anything to get. Something that an unsuspecting young colt has.

An extra cookie.

Done for FanOfMostEverything’s Imposing Sovereigns contest for Princess Flurry Heart: Schemer. Read them all. They’re great.

Being the Princess of Love has grown tiresome for Princess Cadance. She used to enjoy helping bring two ponies together, but lately, ponies have just expected her to help. She feels used and abused - her job seems more of a burden than talent.

After a final unwarranted incident (and one too many drinks), Cadance decides to ship at will... Her will, that is.
