Retirement. It was a tough subject for Spitfire. She knew she was about to retire soon, but she hadn' t notified Fleetfoot and Soarin of her decision. Unfortunately for Spitfire, Fleetfoot already knows and is more than apt to tell her all of her feelings on the matter. She's angry. She's anxious. She's upset.

She just wants Spitfire not to leave. Was it that hard to want something like this in life?

Apparently to Spitfire, there's more to this than meets the eye.

Written originally for a Speedwrite for Quills and Sofas' Spitfire Contest under both prompts Leave No One Behind and Finish Line, where it tied for 1st place. This is a revised expanded version of said fic that is now a submission to the 2024 Wonderbolts Sitewide Contest.

Pre-read by 6-D Pegasus.

Sunny and her friends discover an abandoned tower. Exploring it should be fun, right? A nice adventure for a bunch of ponies. Who knows what will be inside.

Who knows who will return alive.

This was originally abandoned after being started (a few months before the release of MYM ch 2 at latest). But I found it and felt it deserved a chance, even if it’s a bit cheesy. But since this was made so early in G5’s time, little no stuff from either series or comics will be present.

Due to the way that she was raised, Misty goes to get psychological help with the help of her friends.

Spike had never thought he would meet his birth parents, he had been with Twilight for quite sometime now and he was starting to lose hope that he'd ever meet them. But when he goes to the Dragon Lands to see the Migration, he not only meets a kind dragon who helps him through the place, but he also helps find someone he never thought would get to meet..

Harold. A little boy who carries a special purple crayon with him and with his imagination anything he draws comes to life. And he manages to show everyone what his imagination can do. Even show friendship towards Spike when he got left out once again.

This is a gift for Roxas2017. And guys? Please be nice to him. He's recently lost his grandpa and this story needs to bring a smile to his face.

(Takes place within the universe of The Sitter with the Diamond Tiara and its semi-sequel A Dazzling School Daze. Familiarity with both is not required, aside from a little bit of context.)

Diamond Tiara has come to a realization of sorts about what her future should be and what sort of career she wants to pursue. A recent experience has convinced her to become a teacher, rather than take over her father's business.

But the young mare finds herself still plagued by uncertainty over her decision, doubts have crept into her mind about who she is and what her career path should really be. So she decides to have a talk with somepony she believes can help clear things up.

Cheerilee is quite surprised to be visited by one of her former students, but nevertheless agrees to hear Diamond out. And Cheerilee's advice and guidance might be just what Diamond Tiara needs to hear.

Discord decides it would be funny to pop in on Twilight. That's nothing new. However, this time it could not have been more ill-timed, as just at that moment, Twilight had been testing out an experiment combining Harmony magic and the properties of Grogar's bell.

This permanently severs Discord's connection to Chaos.

Without magic and in a changed body, he has to find a new path in life, and it will not be easy, even with friends there to help him.

Another year older, another year grayer.

Things have settled into a routine for a while, but neither of them admits how dragging it is. The boredom and tedium of aging has started to wear them down.

After all, they saved the world multiple times, their businesses are incredibly successful, and all their friends and loved ones are happy, so why wouldn’t they be, too?

What is missing that makes them feel so hollow?

At least you still have your last friend in Ponyville.

The best part of your day.

And maybe, just maybe, she’s the answer to your emptiness.

Out of all her friends, Sunset is closest to Pinkie and spends a good majority of her time with the girl. Partially because Sunset loves Pinkie a bit more than a friend. And apparently she's not that good at hiding it considering everyone knows. Given encouragement by Rarity to confess, Sunset says pretty much what the hell and goes for it.

If only Limestone didn't make Pinkie visit a choosing stone or whatever the hell Maud called it after the two have been dating for four months.

A pony is dying, and they don't know why. Yet they don't complain, cry, scream, beg the maker to stop this, say goodbye to family, friends, loved ones or even embrace their fate. The only thing they do is ask themselves a simple question that matters to them alone.

'What should I do with all my stuff?'
