      what have you done Cover
      by Monochromatic I held you deep in my arms When your world was falling apart I was the light in your dark I was always there for you when you lost it all No one knew exactly what to do with me.I’d been a prisoner for so long, and then a highly-guarded guest, and now? Now, I was simply another person living in a castle whose ruler was shackled in a dungeon, awaiting punishment.  It had been two weeks since Andromeda released the emotions and memories she’d locked away in that stupid little black box. Two…

      i did it for you Cover
      by Monochromatic It had been a dark, stormy night when Fluttershy’s funeral took place, Twilight remembered.  If her mind hadn’t been consumed with grief, she might have thought many different things that day. Might have thought Rainbow Dash would have never allowed such weather on such a day; that Pinkie would have made it a bright, happy affair, meant to celebrate the pegasus; that Applejack would have given a beautiful, earnest speech, and somehow a dark day would have a light shining through. But all she…

      I. darling, don’t you cry Cover
      by Monochromatic Darling, don't you weepThere's a place for meSomewhere we can sleepSee you in your dreams The library had been quiet that day save for the rain thumping against the windows.  Thump, thump, thump.  Sophie tried not to think too much about the many dead-ends of her life, but it was hard not to think about it when the library was empty.  She was supposed to be more—someone making groundbreaking discoveries. But instead, there she was, twenty-nine years old, taking care of the…

      Chapter 1 Cover
      by Monochromatic It wasn't very often that Twilight Sparkle left Canterlot, especially less since she'd started taking private classes in Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, and though she usually very much enjoyed train rides with her mother, this particular time wasn't so fun. For starters, they were going to Dodge City, which the Princess said wasn't admittedly her favorite town, and then her mom was too busy editing one of her client's novels to talk to Twilight, and, to make things even worse, the filly…

      ~ Interlude II ~ Those Left Behind ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic He would never learn the pain of being forgotten. He had never sought out to be recognized in the eyes of anypony but those he cared about. Regardless of the passing of the years, he would never once care whether other ponies remembered him or not. But he cared—painfully, agonizingly so—that ponies were forgetting her. Ponies of all ages and walks of life trotted along the streets of Equestria's capital city, each lost in their own little worlds, their own little all-encompassing…
    • The old castle

      The old castle Cover
      by Monochromatic It started with intruders. Or, more accurately, it started in the library. Andromeda allowed her to spend a few hours every day there, which Rarity was appreciative of. Better the library than her gloomy room-slash-prison.  She turned the pages of her book in slow motions, her ears flicking at the sound the pages made when they brushed together. Truth be told, she wasn’t all that interested in the content of the book. The castle’s public library had no novels or books about things that would…
    • Not On My Watch

      Not On My Watch Cover
      by Monochromatic “I’m nervous.” Rarity looked up from her makeup bag and towards the flustered Twilight Sparkle, who was only thirty minutes away from leaving Carousel Boutique and trotting off to her date. It wasn’t often that Twilight asked somepony out on a date, and as such, Rarity had decided that she simply had to intervene. After all, as Twilight's most fabulously fashionable friend, it was her celestial duty to aid the poor unicorn. “Nervous? Don’t be silly,” she replied, looking…

      A call for help Cover
      by Monochromatic ‘Twas the morning before Hearth’s Warming, when all through the town, ponies ran out, doing shopping they’d forgotten about. The chatter filled the air, and the laughing did as well, of mares and stallions, colts and fillies, preparing their day for a wonderful eve. A beautiful town this was. But we don’t care about this town. Well, not yet, at least! Our holiday story starts somewhere decidedly less pleasant. It starts in a snowstorm and with a poor little mailmare desperately…
