Years after Starlight Glimmer becomes the new Headmare of the School of Friendship and Twilight ruling over Equestria, Discord is still teaching useful philosophy classes. Although he is known for his unusual teaching methods, there have been rumors that he may have to take a liking to Professor Fluttershy. However, that rumor was never confirmed in any way.

That was, until one Summer when Discord put up the offer for a surprising class in the felid of Philosophy. The subject was about love. Even with Discord promoting the class, one question is raised: why?

Since Princess Twilight Sparkle had elevated herself to the status of an immortal alicorn, she has come to realize that there would be one part of her friend's lives that they may never get the chance of having - her funeral. To make up for this, she decides to host a mock funeral so they can have the opportunity to experience it. However, word about the preparation for said funeral accidently gets out and as a result, Equestria believes that Twilight has died.

This story was inspired by the suggestion of a friend who wishes to remain anonymous.

Lately, King Thorax is feeling rather down. Although his friends are already dating or married, he feels left out. Hearing this, his brother, Pharynx with the help of Equestria's newest adviser, Spike, set out to find the King a mate. But there's a catch to this match-making, Pharynx has reason to believe that his brother is gay. So who exactly could they get Thorax to date and, more importantly, will it go well in this comedy of assumptions?

A special thanks to a certain someone who offered me the idea who wishes to remain anonymous.

On Hearth's Warming Eve, Braeburn asks Soarin to sleep at his home for the night. From there, the two of them start to catch up on many things of the past, their concerns about the present, and reassurance of a brighter future.

This is my humble Christmas present for my readers. And I hope that y'all will have a safe and wonderful time with the people that mean the world to you.

In the land of Equestria, the music of The Beatles has become beloved. For Ocellus, thanks to Sandbar, she has been introduced to their music and has picked up music lessons to play one of their songs. But what would happen if one day, she wakes up and finds that no one, not her friends, her scholarly Headmare, or even all of Equestria has forgotten about the Fab Four?

An idea that's based on the film "Yesterday," and is taking in a deeper dive into this brilliant concept.

A special thank you to Geek Crossing for this wonderful cover for this story.

Based on the short story by CreepyCrabs, Cinnamon Stick, a student at the School of Friendship seeks help from the counselor. After telling her about the way his parents treat him, the counselor promises him that she will do what she can to fix their relationship. All he has to do was to come to her office again without telling anyone.

Author's Note: This story is the result of a vote I held in which is technically my spin on a creepypasta that already exists.

Ever heard of somepony name Jozèf Boulogne? Neither did Sunburst, someone who has quite the knowledge of history, events, and the could tell you what certain antiques were used for just by looking at them. When he moved to Ponyville, however, he ended up choosing a house that had an unusual feature: a fireplace that's older than the house itself. Fortunately, Starlight gave him a spell so that he could peer into the past from the objects he could find. From there, the spell allows him to communicate with a colt hundreds of years ago.

Curious about who this colt was, Sunbursts sets out on a quest to answer the question. Who was Jozèf Boulogne, also known as, the Zebra Moztrot?

You know how some relative of yours has that one story about you that you never once said and that they will repeat that story to every family gathering until they die? For Braeburn Apple, that story involves in the way that he came out to his father - Johnnieseed Apple.

The following is that account, told from the point of view of the father.

Warning: The following you're about to read contains philosophy in plain English. If you do not like this, you know where the exit button is.

Also, please remember that this is an anthology, in which each chapter is their own independent story.

After the events of "The Philosophical Substitute," Discord is now taking on as a full-on teacher in Twilight's School of Friendship. Even though his past students (the Young Six) have technically graduated his class, they still come to him time to time to ask him some of life's toughest questions. Eventually, even their teachers come to him for guidance.

What follows is an anthology series of what each character learns from the Ex-Lord of Chaos.

A special thanks to Azaclop for proofreading.

Editorial, a journalist for The Manehattan Times is tasked to go to one of the most haunted places in Equestria. In particular, to investigate a bridge that connects Ponyville to Appaloosa. Over the Gastly Gorge, when the moon is absent and the sky is dark, the location is known as "The Bridge of No Return" because those who dare to cross it end up disappearing. Even if there wasn't a paranormal reason for the disappearances, the reporter is determined to find the real reason why.

This is his findings.
