This story is a sequel to Death and the Dazzlings

Eight years have passed since Adagio faced off with Death for the other sirens' lives. In that time, Aria and Sonata have gone native, but Adagio has dedicated her life to studying how to kill Death and ensure their safety. Nothing else matters to her but revenge... right?

A plan has been made to tell the CMC traditional fairytales as bedtime stories, in order to improve their cultural sophistication. However, the tellers have been embellishing said fairytales to star themselves in central roles: Rarity as Cinderella, and so on. Now it is Fluttershy's turn... and she doesn't think she's up to the task.

The CMC agree with her there, but they have a plan to help her out, no matter how much unavoidable property damage occurs along the way.

Rated T for minor sexual humor.

Well before Big Mac came to the Pie family rock farm, there was another pony who caught Marble Pie's eye. That pony was very different from Big Mac... and at the time, so was Marble Pie. But her oldest sister, Limestone, was there to watch and to worry.

Defensibly contains spoilers for S5E20, despite being set earlier in time than that episode. Cover picture by senseidezzy.

An argument and a car crash leave one of the sirens--Adagio, Sonata, and Aria--dead. They know this because Death itself has shown up to chat with them and to ensnare Adagio into a game of wits with the very lives of her companions at stake. Adagio doesn't want anyone to die, but she's not so happy with the way they've been arguing so much lately either...

An EQG story. Absolutely no connection to The Years of Ar and S.

A couple months after losing the Battle of the Bands and later graduating from Canterlot High, Trixie Lulamoon moves to Los Manegeles to become a star. Some initial setbacks, plus an offer from a local spirit of chaos, lead her to teach the world a lesson, but she'll soon find that the world is remarkably resilient to being taught and her own lessons are only just beginning.

In homage to the classic Sith Academy corpus. Tags to be added as they come up.

If the sirens had their way, they would have divided and conquered all of Equestria. But a certain Star Swirl the Bearded wasn't having it. Rumor has it he found a way to banish them to another world – one where he believed their magic power would be lost. That world must have been the one where my Canterlot High friends live.

But Star Swirl must have sent them there ages ago. How come they're just surfacin' now?

A cursory look at the sirens' thousand years of history in the human world before the events of Rainbow Rocks. With apologies to Kim Stanley Robinson.

Absolutely no connection to Death and the Dazzlings.

Bon Bon spent her time at the Ponyville Pet Center fundraiser having fun with a seal. This is their story.

Check your disbelief at the door.

Adagio Dazzle, brilliant classical musician and composer, has just lost the battle of the bands at Canterlot High after being betrayed by her best friend Octavia. She gives Octavia one chance to explain herself, but may end up learning--and revealing--far more than she had bargained for.

(Backstory: "Adagio Dazzle" appears to be the name of a new character in Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks. All we know about her at this time is her name, though the "Dazzle" part is probably exclusive to the toyline. Even her being female is just a guess. I decided to take a chance and make a whole bunch of undoubtedly incorrect predictions about the plot of Rainbow Rocks, as part of a shameless attempt at creating the very first Adagio fanfic.)

Star Swirl the Bearded, exiled by Princess Platinum and worried for his continued survival, sends a letter to Clover the Clever briefly detailing his views on ponykind's origins, the nature of the physical world, and the future of his species.

A thousand years before Twilight Sparkle's birth, King Sombra has conquered the Crystal Empire and enslaved its citizens. From there he turns to the land of Unicornia, only for a single unicorn princess to escape his clutches and flee for help to a tiny village called Ponyville.

In Ponyville, Minty the earth pony is living in shame after her accident at the Winter Wishes Festival a few months ago. The plight of the runaway unicorn princess gives her a chance to redeem herself, but can Minty, a pony so clumsy that she seems to destroy everything she touches, save all ponykind from Sombra's menace? Only two things are certain: Ponyville's way of life will be changed forever, and she'll never make this work without a little help.

After all... what are friends for?

Those familiar with the source material -- which is hardly a prerequisite -- will notice that some events have been moved around in time, replaced, or otherwise modified. In particular, the name 'Christmas' has been excised in favor of the winter holiday from Twinkle Wish Adventure, since ponies celebrating Christmas has never once been a thing that made sense. This story is about the characters more than about the exact events (and order of events) as depicted in the animated specials.

As for the citizens of Ponyville, only the ones who showed up in the 2003-2007 (pre-"Core 7") animated specials are counted here. Toola Roola or Princess Peppermint, to pick two random examples from later releases or the massive toyline, do not count. Gem Blossom and Valenshy are also excluded from Ponyville despite their animated appearances, on account of being "jewel ponies."
