Rarity had everything she ever thought she wanted. The recognition of the Canterlot high society, a booming career, and the love of a loyal and dashing prince.

Of course, none of those old dreams accounted for the prince being another mare. Not that there is anything wrong with that of course, but a proper mare does not go flaunting such things. That's just good manners.

Right?

As Twilight draws towards the end of her life, death and the effect it will have on those she is closest with weighs on her mind. One night, seeing her distress, Celestia shares with her a secret belief she holds about death, life, magic, and the connection between them.

This story is a sequel to The Sun Shines High, and Alone

Celestia and Luna have been many things to each other. Siblings, Allies, Comrades, Rivals, and the bitterest of enemies. Despite this, as they move forward they know they will always be one thing to each other.

Friends.

(The final story of the Moon, Sun, and Dusk trilogy. Reading the prior stories is recommended)

Preread by Taggerung, Pwnego, and Lord Destrustor.

This story is a sequel to The Moon Has a Softer Light

Celestia has been many things in her life. Hero, General, Savior, Sovereign, and Teacher. There are many things she's done as the Light of Equestria, but a chance encounter has made Luna realize Celestia's subjects view her with an emotion she never thought they could.

Fear.

(This story is a sequel to The Moon Has a Softer Light, although most of the relevant details are covered at the start of this story, so reading is not required.)

Prereading by Pwnego and SoloBrony.

Princess Luna has been many things. Artist, scholar, warrior, queen, and villain. There are many things she's known and experienced, yet one night she's asked to do something novel even for her; give advice.

Idea by SoloBrony. Prereading by SoloBrony, Lord Destrustor, and Taggerung

Alone. That's a scary word. Luckily, it's not something Rainbow Dash has to be afraid of. Element of Harmony, Wonderbolt to be, idol to colts and fillies, and all around radical. No, Dash isn't alone. She's completely awesome. There really isn't anything she can't do. Which is why this whole mess is just so dumb. Twilight doesn't know what she's talking about. Dash is perfectly fine, better than fine when you think about it. She really just can't be something as... as uncool as an asexual.

... Can she?

(Rated Teen for somewhat frank discussions of sexuality)

The Discord Association for the Reformation of Villains, Evil Doers, Rivals and Ne’er Do Wells is a support group founded by the God of Strife himself to help former criminals, monsters, enemies of Equestria, and general enemies of the peace reform and reintegrate into society. They haven't been around for long, but there are high hopes for the project.

Twilight Sparkle has been asked to attend, and she has no idea why.

(I wanted to add a Sad tag but apparently wistful or sad comedies are just not things that exist on Fimfiction, so be warned.)

Twilight and Celestia share two moments across time.

A story about growing up.

---

A special thanks to all the friends without whom this story would be much less. You guys are the best.

Luna is not a weak pony, that's what she's been told by her sister.

Yet it's hard. Living with the shame and loneliness. Just like any wound, if left untreated, complications can arise, and like any disaster, sometimes the littlest things can trigger the greatest calamities.

Sometimes, our pain gets the best of us, and we lose our very selves.

A relatively normal day is disrupted when Luna learns that Orcus, the Demon Prince of Undeath, has escaped from Tartarus and is making his bid for conquest, starting with Ponyville. More horrifying though... is that fact that only she seems to care. Time is of the essence, and no one, Celestia included, seems worried about the impending disaster. Will Luna be able to rally the army, shake the citizens of Canterlot from their strange apathy, and save the day?

No. No she will not.

Everypony in this town is crazy.

(Special thanks to my Prereaders, many of whom do not have accounts, for convincing me this fic didn't suck. Also, thanks to Danmakuman for the cover art!)
