Twilight Sparkle has a problem: she can never quite convince herself that she has remembered to pack everything she needs for school. And that terrifies her.

After all, what if she fails out of school? Or what if Princess Celestia decides she no longer deserves to be her personal student?

The only thing Twilight can do is check her saddlebags.

And check again.

And again.

And maybe a fourth time?

But what if that’s the problem and she needs to learn to live with uncertainty?

A story of a young Twilight Sparkle’s struggles with obsessive compulsive disorder.

Luna and Celestia have lived long, long lives and seen much from the time of their triumph over Discord to their reunion at the end of Nightmare Moon's banishment. From war to moments of quiet contemplation, finding one's place in the world is not always easy, even for an immortal, but each sister has sought to do so in a world full of both wonders and dangers.

And, above all, they have relied on each other.

While each entry may be read as a mostly self-contained story, they all take place within one continuity and events mentioned in one may be expanded upon in another.

This is the meager collection of stories I wrote a long time ago for the unfortunately now defunct Thirty Minute Ponies, but never uploaded here.

My Most Faithful Student: Celestia worries
Winter Care: Fluttershy rescues Angel [mild description of injury that occurs offscreen]
Pleasant Rain: Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash's first kiss
Winning and Giving in Los Pegasus: Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle play the slots
Confusion and Concern: Is Nightmare Moon back?

I might use the extensive list of prompts to continue to grow this collection, but each entry is, of course, complete and self-contained.

One thousand years ago, Nightmare Moon triumphed over Celestia and plunged Equestria into an era of darkness.

On the outskirts of the great city of Cloudsdale, Rainbow Dash struggles to provide for herself and her only friend, Fluttershy. Her mundane if uncomfortable existence, however, is thrown into chaos when she finds herself arrested for theft and treason.

When Nightmare Moon sends her personal student, Twilight Sparkle, to aid the investigation, things rapidly spiral out of control as events that will change the fate of Equestria unfurl.
