When you're a changeling, there's a lot of things you can do a more easily than everyone else. Fit into a tight space, sneak out of class, reach the top shelf. A little shape shifting is all it takes. When Ocellus feels the need to try something else for a little while, it's as easy as making herself a set of fingers to snap.

But maybe you don't need a whole transformation to try something different.

Yona has something she needs to talk about, but she gets a little distracted.

The most dangerous assignment of Captain Gallus' career: protect Luster Dawn, friendless magical prodigy, from Ponyville. Isn't there a nice war to fight instead?

Spike and Smoulder want to hang out with Ocellus over spring break. That's good! But they're going to the dragon lands. That's bad! But Ocellus is a shapeshifter. That's good! But Ocellus has a thing for dragons, and oh no this just got complicated...

Big thanks to Salty Alty's editing for making this nice and readable

One day everyone is going to graduate. One day they'll go their separate ways.
Ocellus may have just found a way to stop that. Draw a spell circle, sacrifice a little blood, stay friends forever. It's a simple process really, until everyone's feelings spill over the floor.

A new School Year is starting, and despite everything he's done in the name of harmony Gallus isn't sure if he can live up to the ideals of friendship. Not when there's still this gnawing angry voice in his head.

You're no better than any other griffon.

The first story in the New School of Friendship continuity

Everyone wants to be special. That's why there's comics and shows to idolize special powered individuals. But if we actaully knew any, we'd be scared and if they were special they'd be scared. What happens when a lot of ponies realize their special? Individual goals, government plots, shady organizations. ... saving the world or conquering it?

(A story based on Heroes)

Berry wakes up from another one of her drinking parties in a daze, but this time there is something floating around in her head. It's important, possibly life changing. What is it? It's the recipe for the best wine in the world. There's a problem though. These ingredients are weird as hell! You can't find any of it in Ponyville that's for sure. It looks like Berry, Ruby, and some of their friends are in for a wild RPG adventure.

FOR WINE!

(I've taken the liberty of adding background music to the story to add to the RPG-ness. Feel free to ignore it.)
