Ponyville's verry own baloonest
No! not that one, aviation balloons not party balloons.

Chery berry considers flight for earthponys beyond just the balloon.

Lunch time is one of the more normal times at CHS. All the students come together at about the same time to do the same thing, and the odd breaking into song notwithstanding, not much really changes about that. It is, after all, lunch time. It’s when you eat lunch. Then you carry on with your day. Kinda hard to mess up.

So, one day, Aria Blaze decides to eat some lunch.

Staring at the sun makes you go blind.

In this world, the mane 6 never found each other, and each found a more... evil calling. starlight glimmer is a med student who wants to explore the differences in humans, and how to eliminate them to make everyone equal, so what better mentor for her than the renowned biochemist dr Twilight Sparkle! But Twilight isn't all that she seems, and may be connected to something far more sinister than Starlight could ever imagine...and maybe she'll join her, only time can tell. However,one thing's for sure: friendship isn't magic, and its doubtful it ever was...

We are not owed anything. On a hill overlooking Ponyville, a small scene plays out.

2013

Sunnie Bun and Velvet Melody have a big problem, namely a milkshake so bad they didn't sell a single glass. Now they're sitting on nearly forty gallons of nigh-undrinkable sludge that needs to disappear tonight, and they've run out of ideas.

That is, until the perfect pegasus for the situation decides to stop in for a visit. Soulful Radiance, master chef and all-around expert belly rubber, decides to pop in for a chat and a shake, and gets a little more than he bargained for.

With his help, drinking forty gallons should be a breeze for the two tubby mares, right?

*content warning: weight gain, stuffing, belches, all the good stuff. Also some mare-on-mare making out and sexual themes. Viewer discretion is advised*

A little story for Soulful, who’s been a homie since day one 💛

Normal girl who lived on earth, things changed for for me I was another place in Equestria met new friends, scared and lonely also homesick. Learned their culture and having fun.

Flash Sentry and Twilight Sparkle seem to enjoy their lives, normal as it can get with equestrian magic around. But one day, they along with a girl named Daisy Glimmer, and a couple of demons from hell, (Blitzo and Verosika), meet a strange man with a strange box and their lines have changed for better and for worse than they could ever imagine. So here's a question for all of you: Would you all like to travel through time and space in a box with a man that is not of this world for an adventure of a lifetime?

In a separate universe, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle were born into the world as alicorn princesses, twin daughters of Empress Celestia. One day, they were sent away to Ponyville, where they were destined to meet 5 special ponies. The story is as we know it; with loyalty, kindness, honesty, generosity, laughter, magic... betrayal, distrust, danger... and so much more.

Spotify alternate link.

Twilight has had a long reign. She has watched ponies develop technologies that those of the past considered mere mythology. She has watched them scour the world and discover continents that were hidden from view or simply lost beneath the waves. Many creatures and tribes of ponies have come and gone, and the sea of stars is where they went last.

The alicorn accompanied them and acted as a figurehead and council before retreating back to Equestria. Now she is crumbling apart in the final years of her life as her magic consumes her body and the ponies are on the verge of dying out. As she watches the sky, engulfed by a black hole crowned in light, Twilight is approached by a still young mare, unfortunately born in an age where she will be all that's left of her people in just a few years.

She asks Twilight a question not about herself or her future, but about the alicorn herself: How does a god die?

Apparently it's on EqD too.
