Watching Applejack tend to the orchard, Rainbow Dash thinks stupid, sappy thoughts such as: maybe it wouldn't be so bad to become a tree.

My silly little entry for the Arboreal Yearnings Contest where it won 2nd place!

As certain ponies from another world can attest, there’s nothing quite like facing down a dark-winged madwoman’s fell magics to bring a group together. Of course, it wasn’t quite so cut and dry for the Crystal Prep Friendship Games team, not least because their Twilight Sparkle both was said madwoman and left them for greener pastures.

None of them can honestly blame her. Even putting aside all of Twilight’s bad memories at Crystal Prep and the better ones she made during the Games, there’s one argument that might sway even the most die-hard Shadowbolt: Canterlot High has more hotties in its student body than any of them can shake a stick at.

Especially the one who just walked into the diner where they’re having lunch.

So, ladies. Who has first dibs?

Rated T for teenagers being teenagers. Credit to Moproblems Moharmoney for several of the girls' stances on the matter.

Twilight borrows an idea from Time Turner to 'bring the past forward to you', creating a spell that in theory should allow one to see the past without taking part in or altering it. Due to Twilight's genius alterations made with too little sleep, it backfires and results in semi-actual time travel where each pony is sent back in time into their old foal bodies. Various shenanigans ensue with a chapter for each pony.

Luna’s entire personality glitches as she gives her newborn daughter Neoma her very first bath, much to the amusement of Celestia and Twilight. The splashing has been doubled!

Retired Special Agent Sweetie Drops has been living in Ponyville as Bon Bon for just over ten years now, and aside from the occasional monster attack or magical mishap, life has been peaceful. She's happily married and has a successful career running a candy shop. Something has been preventing her from properly appreciating the quiet life, however, and that thing's name is Vinyl Scratch. Countless hours of surveillance has convinced Bon Bon of one fact, and it's that whatever Vinyl Scratch is, it's not a pony. Today is the day she gets to the bottom of the mystery that has haunted for her so long: What exactly is Vinyl Scratch, and what does she want with Octavia Melody?

Equestria has fallen. The New Lunar Republic stands in its place with Nightmare Moon at its helm.

Nightmare Moon’s beloved daughter, Eris, is devastated after her boyfriend breaks up with her. Luckily for Eris, her mother is the darkest entity known to ponykind, and though the sovereign of the night is a cruel ruler, she is fiercely protective of her daughter. Nightmare Moon is about to teach this colt a very important lesson: Never, ever mess with the daughter of darkness.

Strawberry Sunrise makes some bold claims about her home-grown strawberries. The good citizens of Ponyville take these claims a tad too seriously.

Originally a Hearth's Warming gift for Red (<3). This version has been edited here and there, and the ending has been tweaked ;)
