CW: Themes/suggestions of mental illness, self-harm and suicide

Unable to handle her anxiety without the memory stone, Wallflower Blush tries to end her life. The attempt leaves her too injured to recover, and with just hours left to live, she expects to die all alone—until Sunset Shimmer appears, asking, “Why?”

Crossover/Sequel with Wanderer D's Sunset's Isekai can be read here.

Wallflower drawing is by s-i-ren.

Starlight loses her sight in a near deadly accident. Her life changes significantly.

To Casketbase77, who proofread, Nitro Indigo, who has waited quite a long time for this to finally be finished, Supermarine Spitfire, who I'm relatively certain also wanted to see this when it was done although I am unsure, and Amit, whose stories I heavily based the structure and cover image of this one off of. We miss you, dude. You're quite possibly the best etymologist I've ever met.

God damn, I write too many sad stories. My next one will be funnier, I promise.

A (belatedly informed) entry into the My Little Pony Renaissance Contest. I promise it was! I just forgot to enter it!

It's been a year since Twilight passed away from her illness. In that time Fluttershy's barely recovered. Her friends are worried about her but Fluttershy refuses to move on. Can her friends guide her back into the light? Or will she too succumb to the darkness?

Sequel to Disease in The Darkness

This story is a sequel to To Linger In A Place Where You Don't Belong (fade)

“You are at the Gates,” I repeated. “Or, you would be. Your body is elsewhere, but you are here. And here is nowhere. Here is where you remembered yourself last being. It’s a test you cannot fail, but one you will never pass.”

Blue wings justled at her side. My clouds mimicked her. “Am I dead?”

“Do you remember dying?”

Started as a Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Panic entry, expanded to this!

”Alright, starting today, I’m going to start journaling this stuff. Maybe I’m overthinking it and I will just come off as a raving lunatic, but I’m sure I’ll laugh about it later down the line.”

A young, anonymous high school junior revisits an old show that he used to watch as a kid. It was one he used to watch near religiously, to the point that television was banned from the house. After reconnecting with cable, he finds the show once more. However, even his nostalgia couldn’t make him sit through a kid’s television program all over again.

Yet, ever since rediscovering it, he finds that it’s been popping up far more in his life than he realized. What was first thought of as an aggressive marketing campaign changes when the show appears to be communicating to him. Join our journalist as he finds himself stalked and hounded by My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, the Animated TV Show!

Author’s Note: Now for something completely different! I had the urge to write a sort of mystery, almost meta-style narrative. I also wanted to try out a first person story. I already write myself into things anyway! *ba dum tss*

UPDATE 7/29/25: This story is cancelled. Please read my blog post to get the conclusion. I just don’t have the passion anymore, but I still love this story. Thank you and I’m sorry.

Warning: Philosophically dark.

A lot has happened since Celestia and Luna disappeared nine hundred years ago. There are no wars, no diseases, no pain, no death. Princess Twilight, Discord, and Spike do everything to ensure that the utopia continues.

But even the most ideal paradises have ponies that wish it wasn't so.

Story inspired by Mister Saugrenu’s artwork 1000 Years in the Future.

Phoenix came to Equestria two years ago through circumstances unknown. For two years, Phoenix had waited for Princess Celestia and her top scholars to answer one question: Will he be able to go home?

The answer finally came... And it was "No"

His new friends have, surprisingly, found he's taken the news quite well. Very well!... Maybe even too well. However, they never had a reason to doubt Phoenix wasn't doing as great as he said he was. That is, until he tells Twilight Sparkle he wants to explore his new home by walking from Ponyville to the Crystal Empire with no bits, the clothes on his back, and whatever he can fit into his small, makeshift backpack.

This story is a sequel to You Are Sick

Sometimes it's late at night, and you can't sleep. Sometimes you just stare at the ceiling and imagine what it would be like if you weren't here anymore, how the world would be different. Sometimes it seems like the world wouldn't even be worse off without you around, and that you might be better off without it.
But those are only idle musings and thoughts. It's not like you actually wish you were dead...
...right?

Warning: Contains depression and suggestions of suicidal/self-destructive thoughts. No actual death or physical self harm takes place. Please don't read this if you're feeling depressed or suicidal, I don't think this would help.

This is a stream of consciousness from the point of view of Berry Punch from the Broken Love series. Can act as a standalone.
Please don't worry. I'm ok.

This story is a sequel to Sirens of the Night II

After the Fall Formal I thought that I had lost everything. The crown, my one chance to return to Equestria. Turns out that I was wrong. I have gained so much. Some of it I didn't even know that I was searching for. My name is Sunset Shimmer, and this is my story.

*I want to thank everyone who has enjoyed my stories.*
