"In The Precocious Princeling's Guide to Diplomatic Relations, there are three rules for how a royal ought to conduct himself abroad.

1. A diplomat of Equestria must obey all local laws of the nation they are assigned to.
2. A diplomat of Equestria should advocate for the interests of Equestria to the best of their abilities.
3. Under no circumstance should a diplomat of Equestria get involved in the following: Political parties, popular uprisings, peasant revolutions, class solidarity movements, coups d'etat, or other attempts at regime change, violent or otherwise.

By the time I had finished my tenure in Saddle Arabia, I had broken all three."
-Prince Blueblood, First of His Name

A short one-shot where Sunset and Twilight go to a café to take a break during finals season. Twilight feels a little insecure over her new look, but Sunset is there to ease her fears. This one-shot is a character study of Sunset Shimmer and includes my personal headcanon about her relationships with the two Twilights.

Sunshine Smiles enjoys the promise of a new day, the rosy reds of dawn, the moment when the new sun's light kisses Equestria.

Moonlight Raven prefers the thoughtful solitude of the night, the soft shadows of moonlight and the peaceful silence of a slumbering city.

Two souls who found each other, and rekindled their relationship, so late in life are getting married, and the wedding is surely going to be a grand event. Both Cranky Doodle Donkey and Matilda have led long, eventful lives, and that's led to a long and varied guest list.

One such guest is looking at a wedding invitation from his first ever friend. He's going to go. He can't not go. But one little request, one added specifically for his invitation, has him stopping short. Four little words chilling him to the core.

Come as you are.

Pinkie Pie's clone played a game of hide-and-seek with Apple Bloom. The clone does her best to win, and hides and overhears Twilight send the rest of the clones to the Mirror Pool, from inside a barrel outside the Golden Oak Library.

Seeing that Twilight was trying to send her to the Mirror Pool, the ponies in Ponyville don’t want her around, and that she wasn’t having much fun, the clone chose a new name, went to Manehattan, kept hidden, got a job, and did whatever she could to make sure that nothing and nopony could stop her from having fun.

Contains Death tag for references to sending other Mirror Pool clones back to the Mirror Pool.

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.

Princess Twilight Sparkle helped Pinkie Pie clone herself to finish a giant gingerbread castle in time for the Gala. Twilight's going to find out which Pinkie Pie clone, with science. But somepony isn't happy to be pulled in as Twilight's research assistant.

This story can easily be read without reading the prequel.

A lot of things have changed in Sunny Flare's life between her sophomore and junior years. Her mother, Abacus Cinch, retired; she got her first summer job; and she's started treating her associates like actual friends instead of warm bodies to hide from the conniving masses behind.

It's now the day before Ghouloween (the Pedestrian equivalent to Nightmare Night, for the ponies in the audience), and Sunny's got her first report card of the new Principal Cadance's tenure. After two years of perfect grades... this one's... not perfect.

Unbeknownst to Sunny while she tries to figure out how to explain this to her mother, the former Principal of Crystal Prep already knows why this happened. Sunny Flare might never see the bombs drop, but this reveal will leave a smoking crater in her soul just like the real deal.

Being the guards officially assigned to work directly for Queen Haven may not be the most stress free job in the world, but Thunder Flap and Zoom Zephyrwing wouldn't have it any other way. They've dedicated their lives to being there for her majesty, and come rain or shine (or whatever else there might be), nothing will stop them from carrying out their duties.

Follow the two on a typical day of service, juggling many responsibilities and assignments. Whether it be managing security detail when Queen Haven pays a visit to somewhere, smuggling in Alphabittle for a "meeting" with the queen, or even just making arrangements for Zipp and Pipp's visit with their mom.

All in a day's work for Zephyr Heights' best guards. The smiles from the queen are the only payment and thanks they'll ever need.
