It's Diamond Tiara's birthday. To celebrate, her father promised to get her anything she desired. A promise that leads Diamond Tiara and her father to a family owned jewelery store.

But when she picks out something the owner refuses to part with, what's a filly to do? Well, one grey filly seems to have the perfect plan for both sides to get the things they most desire.

Many thanks to my prereaders: Mudpony for ripping my story a new one, Bootsy Slickmane for the early assist in editing, and the ever supportive Mattricole for reading and pointing out mistakes.

Destiny is a fickle thing. For Diamond's life was one of many pleasures. Over the years many things have changed, but one thing seems to remain constant. Apple Bloom and Diamond Tiara, for richer or poorer, some things never change.

Having lost their fortune to some bad overseas dealings, Diamond is left with little choice but to accept the kindness of the very mare she's teased since their foalhood days. Though much has changed over the years, how will life treat Diamond now that she has to live under Apple Bloom's rules?

What goes around, comes around is often said. But so few ever expect to experience it as much as Diamond Tiara. And she's getting pretty sick of living it.

Nyx discovers the truth about Diamond Tiara.

Fic is -100% Pen Stroke Approved and cannons!
He knows it to be true, deep down, really deep down... okay, probably not ENDORSED.

Totally not an April Foals fic. At all.

Because DiNyx is the ONE TRUE PAIRING.
Search your soul. You know this to be true.
I regret nothing. To the Diamond Cutters for not writing my OTP. Fo SHAME! LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!?

Welcome to The Diamond Cutters 2nd installment of The Diamond Refinery series. This is going to be a special edition of the refinery. The goal of this event is to create a story with 5 protagonists, come up with a story as to how the CMC with Diamond Tiara & Silver Spoon end up, literally or not, working as one to overcome obstacles.

Be it a quick super heroes base episode to defeat giant monsters, a spell interrupted by the five fillies that somehow cause it to go haywire that somehow merge them into one being, or even just write a normal five fillies being forced to work towards a mutual end, whatever that may be. Almost anything goes!

The Harmony Project "Five Become One"/"Working as One"

Diamond Tiara picture (Top( By Cmaggot (Bottom) By Atryl.

Diamond Tiara is introduced to the world of Po-Neigh-Oh! from a most unsuspecting pony. Silver Spoon!

What will Diamond think of all this? She never did quite get these sorts of games, it was beneath her after all, but to find out her BPFF (Best Pony Friend Forever) was actually into it? Well, it was a shock to the prissy pink filly to say the least.

[NOTE: A simple test fic and something for the gang at Diamond Cutters. Nothing serious.
A short and simple story about ponies playing games. This is supposed to be an example for a Prompt:
<"Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara play a game. Others may or may not be apart of their game."

So, Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara planning a game night? Or they out to be a little more creative with what and who they play with? From simple board games to a match with the very fate of reality hinging on a single move, it is up to YOU to decide what these fillies do or get into!>
