A pony who feels he has nothing left to live for confides with Twilight to do him a favor she absolutely refuses, which results in the desperate pony taking things to the extreme!

Lessons:

-You can never truly understand someone else's pain (what goes through their head)
-People can be loved, appreciated, and needed/wanted... but sometimes even these are not enough
-You can try to persuade someone not to do it, but sometimes it doesn't help.

Twilight messed up big time, and as a result she is paying the price when vengeful ponies trap her and Spike in a situation where they are doomed to perish if help does not arrive on time.

Lessons:

-Make sure you know what you're doing before you decide to help someone.
-Beware of your serious mistakes, for they can come back to get you.
-Honor and fighting for it is not always the smartest thing
-Some people cannot be persuaded to change their minds

Twilight's paranoia, OCD, and obsession with Friendship is going way over the line-- She can't think straight, she can't understand her surrounding, and she ends up making things worse for others instead of better.

She is then persuaded to see a doctor to help her deal with her problems, (In relations to past Friendship is Failure stories) and reflect on different perspectives and aspects of how life does not truly revolve around Friendship alone.

Lessons: (Available all through the story)

*A Short Alternate of S3 Ep16*

After Twilight foolishly attempts to battle Raven, she is spared from death by Lightning's quick actions, but she is then subjected to proper but devastating reprimanding for her actions.

An elderly woodcarver who is down on all hope, slowly embraces the spirit of Hearths Warming, and finds he has a lot more to live for than he believes.

A simulation is run to show what would happen if Power Rangers Starfleet battled The King of Monsters, all viewed by a computer geek who has bought stolen computer software for a very foolish goal.

Don't be fooled by the many downvotes (It's bullies and haters being mean) Give the fic a chance.

-Everyone's dreams and realities are being targeted by an evil institution from another world, planning to harness dreams to conquer all, but a magical knight comes to aid Starfleet in pushing them back.

-A young filly who hates her parents, all grown ups, and does not wish to grow up herself, discovers a magic that not only will keep her young (With a catch) but allow her to get even with adults on a crazy and vengeful streak!

-Castor and Leilani seem to have some connection towards the Dream Knight.

-The team feels that their lives are changing too drastically with their new promotions and growing families, as if their hobbies and other jobs are fading away.

When you break up with someone, or you have your feelings rejected, sometimes it's "Can we just be friends." Well, Twilight and Princess Cadance try to sort out a pony who is not willing to just be friends with a pony that let him down.

Lessons:

1: Some people just aren't willing to settle for "just friends."

2: Friendship is a two-way street, and to make it work, everyone must play their part properly.

3: Forcing a Friend to do something they cannot stand; are you a true friend to them?

Twilight wants so desperately to make it up to Moondancer, and hopefully reconcile their friendship, but unfortunately, things just don't go how Twilight hoped it would.

*No, it's not a Dr. Seuss story*

Lightning Dawn recalls his very First Hearths Warming, when an evil creature with a heart of ice attempted to destroy Hearths Warming, forcing him, Twilight Sparkle and some of their allies to venture out and stop the creature, but only if they can learn to deal with each other's opposing approaches and idealism.
