This story is a sequel to Empty Lake, Full Sky
Sunset Shimmer's choices after the Fall Formal lead her through a darkness she thought she'd lost. Sequel/adoption attempt for Empty Lake, Full Sky by Wayward Sun. Please read that first, in order to know what has lead to the events here.
Sunset's fateful choice leads her to question everything she once used to cling to, even as she recovers and returns to school. Particularly curious to the redhead - a rising attraction to a green-eyed blonde.
Teen for reasons, may change as the story progresses...
Featured? Yes! 8/20/2016, first story of mine to make the box!
Chapters (7)
I'm glad this is been adopted. I always loved this story and love to see it continue.
Please do so love this chapter!
All I have to say so far is that it is a lot less atmospheric than its predecessor, although that's probably just due to a difference in writing style; Which isn't a bad thing (although I did enjoy it in the previous story). I felt you did try to go for the same style as the first three chapters though, so I just thought I'd let you know.
My only real concern so far is that you're already laying the AppleSet shipping pretty strong. I don't feel that Applejack and Sunset have had enough interaction so far to justify that
(again this may be due to personal preference, I just happen to prefer the slower type of romance stories).
Aside from that, I think overall you did a pretty good job with this chapter and like diablo; I really am glad this was adopted.
6660453 Thanks for the feedback - I propose to have at least 3 more chapters, and they will have better pacing (I hope). I was even thinking the SunApple (You know Sunset Apples are a thing?) ship may dock for for a little while, as Sunset's supposed to be feverish and somewhat out of it here. I may not have conveyed that well, and I apologize. When it does finally hits them both, it'll be a real shock. I did kind of try to emulate Wandering Sun's original feel, but I can't and probably shouldn't keep trying, since I have a style that is (fortunately for the rest of the fics here) all my own.
I regret nothing.
This is good please update soon
Love it!
6694671 Great.
Next chapter should be in 2 weeks or so, gotta survive finals.
And so, Murphy had been tempted once again...
Applejack's being kind of bitchy considering that she knows Sunset was suicidal not long ago. I get it if she still doesn't like Sunset, but insulting her like that seems a bit far.
6930547 I agree. Even considering what Sunset did at the fall formal, the girl almost committed suicide, Applejack should be cutting her a little slack. She don't have to like her, but everyone deserves a chance or two.
6899210 What could possibly go wrong? Hiatus.
More!!!!
The Dr. Who reference was really unneeded. Otherwise, it was a pretty good chapter.
AAAHHH JEEZE!
Please tell me one of them saw who it was, someone saw who did it!
7496709 Yeah someone had to. If it's not Fluttershy, then I don't know who it is.
I can't wait for more. Keep it up.
I like it. It really captures the essence of the first one.
Sighs Gilda Agai, wish been different bully, she over done sorry.
I can get this Gilda and the Griffon version are different, Griffion Gilda grew up while human Gilda still a teen and a douche.
Well now i wodner if they can do anything about Snip and Snaisl will crack first i can see follow by Trixie.
If it was rainbow smoke then the truck would be gay
sooo... im kinda woried cause, i havent read the rest of the story yet and as som1 who is a hue fan of the anon-a-miss fanfiction I can see where the arthor could turn this into 1. with the mystable.
ALSO I LOVE THIS!!!
yes i know i cant spell
No one does that to sunset... EVER!
Now, AJ, Marmalade could easily have been just as mean as bully!Sunset. After all, the Oranges are a socialite family, and MLP has never really been that great at showing the better side of the upper class (unless it's Fancy Pants. Damn, but I wish I could have pants as fancy as his). She might even have had a similar redemption event where she realized what a monster she was becoming. Probably not as fancy as Sunset's, though. Damn kids, with their magical doohickeys and their demonic possession and their rainbow lasers. In MY day, we TALKED about our problems, dagnabbit!
Any plans to continue this story?

Yes, there are. I am just terrible at updates. My apologies.
Simple answer to that question is eeyep
It's totally obvious that you sound like big Mac when you're pissed AJ
I'm kind of surprised no other authors have thought of using this kind of torment in their stories, see plenty of graffiti and physical abuse but this is creative abuse right here.
More please😍🙏😭
Plz more lol, this is such a good story!
