With the new princess and her Friendship Council firmly in charge of Equestria, Filthy Rich decides that it's time for him to step aside and allow Diamond Tiara to take over Barnyard Bargains.

Now what?

My entry in FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns II contest with the theme of Abdication, this story didn't reach the Top Seven.

Thanks to Damaged, Mockingbirb, Samey90, and HiddenMaster for brainstorming and VikingZX for insight into convention center guests (on a scale of bad to worse).

Diamond Tiara has had it up to here with her mother, and her father's apparent refusal to do anything about her behavior! Unwilling and unable to put up with such nastiness any longer, Diamond does the unthinkable and runs away from home, leaving her trusty tiara behind in the process!

The filly moves into Carousel Boutique with Rarity, despite the surprise and protests of not only Rarity herself, but also Sweetie Belle. However, it seems nothing can change Diamond's mind. Reluctantly, Rarity agrees to let the troubled filly stay, for a while.

But when Diamond is kidnapped by the diamond dogs while on a gem hunt with Sweetie Belle, she will be surprised by the pony who comes to her rescue.

(Takes place after "Applejack's 'Day' Off" but before "Spice Up Your Life". Proofread by Smity1038 on Deviant Art, and proofread and edited by deadpansnarker on FimFiction.)

Spoiled and Filthy Rich are so over. Witness the joy. Savour the moment. Start saving your money again. Before all that though, a final moving send-off for the lady herself. Enjoy!

Will probably never be canon... but you never know, right?

A sort-of sequel to Filthy Rich Gets Divorced! (Almost) , but definitely able to be read without seeing the original.

Spoiled Rich has just been elected head of the Ponyville school board. With this new job, she's moving back to Ponyville full time, creating a situation where the hired help is too busy with the move to adequately serve her daughter, Diamond Tiara.

Enter Spike, number one assistant to a Princess and hero of the Crystal Empire. He can handle a pushy little entitled filly like her, right? Right??

This story is a pseudo-prequel to Crusaders of the Lost Mark. It sheds some light on why Diamond Tiara had a change of heart, which in my opinion, was way too abrupt in the episode. This story takes place around the time of Princess Spike, even though it bears nothing in common with that episode's premise, other than featuring Spike. :twilightsmile:

Dark, grey clouds settle over a treeless plain. Icy rain soaks your mane. Old castle ruins, infested with changelings, loom over the town. This is the village of Trottingham.

But in Roseluck’s garden, lies a beacon of hope in this desolate land.

In her garden grows a lone rose bush.


This story is set in an AU similar to 19th century England. Think Sherlock Holmes.

Hearth's Warming, truly a most pointless holiday, at least as far as Spoiled Rich sees it. The rich mare sees it as nothing but a waste of time that could be better spent doing almost anything else. And she's the only one in all of Equestria who thinks that way.

However, on this particular Hearth's Warming Eve, Spoiled is about to have an out of this world experience. For a few "spirits" will be stopping by in the hopes of teaching her a lesson, not only about the holiday, but about herself.

Together, they'll delve into Spoiled's past, present, and future, digging up memories Spoiled herself has long forgotten. And realities she's ignored or payed little attention to over the years.

But will they be able to pin down just why Spoiled hates Hearth's Warming so much? And can they do the impossible and get Spoiled to change her ways (or at least make amends)?

There has long been a secret in Equestria, known only to those who have become mothers. It is known simply as the 'naming dream', a personalized dreamscape greeting from one of the princesses, where they praise the expectant mare for bringing forth new life, and give them a suggestion on what to name their foal. As almost every pony in Equestria has a name that lines up with their future endeavors, this suggestion is almost always taken to heart.

Unfortunately, it is not always the case. After seeing her daughter turn over a new leaf to help the "blank flanks", Spoiled Rich takes a look at herself, and her life. She has lived a privileged life, and is indeed spoiled. But why was she given the name Spoiled Milk? Only one pony in Equestria would have that answer: Princess Celestia.

Pinkie Pie loves cakes. She loves baking cakes for all the colts and fillies of Ponyville. But there is one mare in Ponyville who is completely against good taste and actual cakes.

That mare is Diamond Tiara's mom, Spoiled Rich. And yesterday was Tiara's birthday.

So what if Pinkie made an edible cake. She was not a pony who would be deterred from her beliefs.

This was a bakery.
