My entry for the May 2021 Pairing contest.

Speaking publicly was never one of Twilight's strengths, or even areas of comfort. So when she has to orally deliver a sociology report in front of the whole class after transferring to CHS, she's naturally anxious about the entire premise. Fortunately for her, someone out of left field has seen fit to assist her in her endeavor if possible. Someone who is understanding of what she's going through, supportive of her position, and incredibly fuzzy.

Princess Luna finds a way to escape the guilt and shame that drove her to create the Tantabus.

(Warning! There might be side effects.)

A young Empire chafes under unsecure space lanes plagued with piracy. Viceroy Celestia sends her star pupil to solve this crisis, and to learn what leadership on the battlefield really means. Twilight Sparkle and her strike team will forge a bond that stretches across the galaxy.

Okay guys full disclosure. I had no intention of writing this because its connection to the original show is tenuous at best, and it's fucking Looooooong. But then I read the comic Rogue Diamond by TheFlimFlamBros and Pia-chan on e621 and. . . AND I FUCKING LOVE THIS COMIC. Seriously big shout out to them. Go read that fucking comic. But anyway, if I can adore that comic, which is so absolutely divorced from its subject matter, then I can write this. So thanks to them for giving me the artistic courage to take this much artistic license.

This story is a sequel to Forever Mare

Discord has been sealed in stone. King Sombra took the Crystal Empire with him. The fledgling nation of Equestria has dealt with great monsters. Yet, something is rotten in the Everfree Forest. The fear of one more mythic woe is at hoof.

And she's now at the point where she will do anything to escape that, even when nopony else believes in her.

Princesses Celestia and Luna would quite like to retire, now that Twilight Sparkle's ready to take the throne. But Twilight doesn't seem to have gotten the message.

Luna had always enjoyed the night, even when she was but just a filly. She never really knew many ponies who enjoyed the night. That is, until one fateful night when she met a unicorn and discovered that she's not alone with her feelings,
