Just something I thought of.

WARNING: Contains depressing content, self-harm, and suicide

The thing about each and every one of us is that despite our imperfections; we have our own skills, talents, and quirks to define our identities from others. Some may have similar traits and talents, but no two persons are alike when it comes to potential, time, and honing of one's abilities. But what if that single talent you always had, that single specialty you thought you always held onto, that single gift that you unlocked yourself with determination and conviction, vanished right before your very eyes? What if you could no longer use it? What if you could’ve used it to save someone you loved but you couldn’t?

Celestia finds Luna in bed on a Friday night, something rather uncharacteristic of her sister.

Tell me what you think.

I did some thinking about this story, and it's more-or-less how various people cope with grieving someone's passing. Each character represents a different viewpoint.

After taking over the friendship school, Starlight Glimmer begins to get frustrated. It isn't running the school itself that is frustrating her, it is one particular individual and his interest in her. After doing some deep thinking and talking with Trixie and Phyllis, she comes up with a magical plan to fix the problem. Thing is, she might take things a few steps too far.

Nearly all phenomena in Equestria are explained by "Magic" but what explains magic? This backstory follows the rise and fall of SCIENCE in Equestria and the stories it developed along the way.

Magic is used to describe events; The party was magical, or, I do not understand that, ergo, magic.

My goal in this backstory is to develop a scientific system for discovering the workings of magic. I will pull examples from the show and use them to attempt to prove my theorems from a first-person perspective. There will be failures, successes, explosions and more SCIENCE all along the way.

Exactly one year after becoming the ruler of all Equestria, Twilight Sparkle pays a visit to Ponyville and the School Of Friendship, and is shocked to discover that an old friend has done something with Starlight Glimmer, and assumed the position of headmare to get what she wants, and she isn’t exactly eager to let Twilight run and tell anypony.

After receiving a mysterious dark tome from Sunburst, Starlight Glimmer finds herself drawn into a world of madness and horror. Hounded by dark forces, and with only her friend's cryptic notes to guide her, Starlight must unravel the book's secrets to avert a calamity one-thousand years in the making.

An ordinary young man who is obsessed with magical stories finds himself wishing he could really do magic, when suddenly he appears in Equestria as a young unicorn foal. He decides to ask around for advice from other unicorns about doing magic, and even enrolls in a certain magical unicorn school run by a princess. In addition to learning how to use his newfound magical power, he also needs to find out what his Special Talent is and get his cutie mark.

This story is a sequel to Yosh's 'Ail-icorn Thermometer' Post Short Story

Thanks for the requests to see this story extended. It's, truly, the first tale I ever wrote that ever got such acknowledgment.

This was written entirely by 'Fabulous Diva Rarity' based on all the ideas suggested along with the original work itself. Cloe is very talented in writing stories and, given how I'm struggling with some RL stuff at the moment, I asked her to use her astounding talents to give a satisfying 'conclusion' to what I never believed would wish would be requested at all.

If you are looking for a writer who can really bring out love, care, and emotion in a story, you should definitely check out and, if possible, commission Cloe. You won't be disappointed.

The Great and Powerful Trixie would happily tell you that not only is she one of the most elegant and competent unicorns in Equestria, but also one of the most gracious, forgiving, even-tempered, and tolerant ponies in the world.

And on the birthday of that insufferable Mud Briar, the Great and Powerful Trixie was about to prove once and for all that she is not any of these things.

No, she was actually rather a terrible person in general. (And not a very good murderer, either.)

This story is a sequel to Claws Scratching on A House of Glass

It's been a rough few weeks for Bastion: misunderstandings, weird dreams, international intrigue with the threat of a changeling Queen looming over him...

So it's decided he needs a little break. He needs to go someplace new, reset himself a little, see how he acts without anyone trying to steer him one way or another. Appropriately enough for the heir to the War Engineer Faux Pas, that place is Fight Camp.

It's not long before he makes some new friends, of course, and learns some new combat tricks.

His new friends, however, may be a league too high for him, and have their own dark pasts to worry about.
