After discovering some more of Star Swirl’s unfinished spells, Twilight's curiosity causes her to cast one, in spite of Spike's warnings. To her surprise, the spell doesn’t seem to do anything. Frightened that perhaps she repeated her previous mistake from Magical Mystery Cure, she rushes to Ponyville only to find everything is as it should be. After this, she agrees not to try to fix any more spells and goes to sleep...

Only to wake up in the past.

Using this opportunity, she begins to correct past mistakes. There are some setbacks, but overall Twilight believes she is making the world better.

Yet as she seeks to fix the problems of her past, she will find that sometimes past mistakes are exactly what our future needs.

For those wondering about continuity with events in the show, chronologically, I'd say the events take place just before the episode Filli Vanilli. The basic outline of this story was actually planned out before season 4 began and much of it was written before the end of season 4.

This fiction was featured on Dec. 9, 2014 - Now that's a great Hearth's Warming present. Thanks guys.

If you want to know more about the writing process for this story, you can check out my blog post More About "More About Time" for, well, more about this story.

Twilight creates a spell that should allow anypony to experience an amazing 24 hour day in the span of about an hour. She wants to test out a lighter version that should give her a 5 minute experience in a few seconds to make sure the spell is safe. After a successful test, however, she is worried that it might have actually worked better than expected...

Kosumi never seemed to fit in to life in the city of Canterlot and it doesn't help that he doesn't even have his cutie mark yet. One day, he meets an old unicorn that teaches him a fascinating unicorn game called "go." He loves the game, but after playing it for months he begins to wonder if earth ponies can even get a cutie mark in playing a unicorn game - most unicorns would agree he can't. Perhaps a trip to the Canterlot Go Club will determine just how well he can play this ancient game.

This story is about ponies playing the real world game of go. It does feature Japanese terms used in the game of go, because it was written by a go playing brony for go playing bronies. If you are curious what the game is (or just what it looks like), Wikipedia has an article called "Go (game)" that you can look at.

Currently on hiatus as I have too much going on. If it makes you feel any better, one of the big distractions is my continued study of the game of go.
