It's been ten years since Sandbar graduated from the School of Friendship and he's doing well for himself. With Yona, he's made a name for himself in the fashion world by becoming the co-owner of the Ponyville branch of the Carousel Boutique only after a few years of working there.

It's been seven years since Gallus left Ponyville to enlist with the Canterlot Royal Guards, becoming the first Griffon in history to do so. At first, both were concerned about the distance, but felt that their bond could only grow stronger.

It's been five years since Gallus broke up with Sandbar.

Now, after throwing himself into his work at the Carousel Boutique for the past few years, Sandbar finds himself reminiscing on the past despite himself.

Written for the Young Six Writing Contest.

On a very cold winter morning before Hearth's Warming Day, Sandbar and Gallus return to the school, but take a moment to sit by the fire and have a moment (mostly) to themselves.

Tangentially related to my series of GallBar stories, but not strictly necessary to read for this one. I promise.

This story is a sequel to After-Thoughts, or How to Express Yourself in a Way that Makes Sense

Following a horrendous Guardian/Teacher conference between Grampa Gruff and (The Great and Powerful) Student Counselor Trixie, Gallus wonders what to do next, and where he truly belongs in Equestria. If he belongs there anyway.

Which is made more difficult when trying to be gay covertly with his boyfriend.

Follows Season 9, Episode 20: A Horse Shoe-In.

Cover art is drawn by, uh, "6jjcgf0d1etqx1tp" on Derpibooru. Or gd_inuk. I am unsure.

I didn't mean to base my story on it, but it ended up being perfect for me anyway.

This story takes place after the IDW 20/20 comic, so light to moderate spoilers abound.

After finally returning home from her adventure to Manehattan, with a cutie mark no less, Applejack spends her first morning back with Macintosh, baby Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith as they await the return of Bright Mac and Pear Butter.

This story is a sequel to Friends and Family Day, or What Happens When You Ignore Half of an Event Name

When Sandbar kissed Gallus, the griffon had no idea how to respond in any way other than running and avoiding his friends so as to not have to deal with his confusing feelings. He's been skipping meals, friendship events, and even sleeping in his room, all to avoid his roommate. However, Gallus finds that he can't hide and run forever, particularly considering that it's a small school and all his friends just want him to be happy. Including, and maybe especially, Sandbar.

After Twilight Sparkle reopens her School of Friendship she decides, as an act of diplomacy, to hold another Friends and Family Day to prove her school is different this time. Almost everyone agrees that this is was a good call and has a good time, but one earth pony refuses to and it's up to his griffon friend to try and change that.

This is a Season 8 story, based on only the first two episodes. Which means I'll probably have to mark this under Alternate Universe eventually.

Morning Glory has been interested in trying to date Cardinal for quite a long time. With the help of Sweetie Belle, he makes an attempt at it.

The only problem being: Is Cardinal trying to turn him down gently, or is he just frighteningly oblivious?

After over a month of trying and failing to acquire a cutie mark, Pipsqueak is antsy in trying anything to get to it while Rumble isn't too bothered. What both colts don't know is that there are some talents that are guided by fate rather than random tasks. And fate is about to hit them like a freight train.

Well maybe not that hard, but it's gonna hit.

Based loosely on episode 7.21. And by loosely I mean pretty much fully. Except maybe geographically.

After twenty years of life, Spike has finally decided to confess his undying love for the mare of his dreams. With flowers gripped in one claw and his common sense buried deep, he'll make it work. Somehow.

Sometimes when you're in a tough spot you'll have to build up walls to hold your problems, just so your friends won't worry about you.

Sometimes all it takes is a minor thing for those walls to come tumbling down and for all those emotions you've held on to for so long to pour out onto the friends you were trying to protect.
