The train sped through the countryside, heading toward arguably the most important city in Equestria. Inside, ponies moved about, going on with their daily lives. The servers trotted to and fro, pushing trolleys filled with food both sweet and salty. The engineer kept an eye on the unwinding track, while his assistant threw more coal into the engines of the train. The mothers shushed their loud foals, and the fathers read their newspapers. Change usually went like that, didn’t it? Unnoticed by all…- 352.1 K • Completed
The party that came after Princess Luna’s liberation was one unlike Hollow Shades had ever seen. No matter where you were, inside or out, you could hear it. The laughter, the dancing, the celebration of a cursed town that was cursed no more. It invited you to join, drew you in with the infectious cheers, and you would be remiss to not attend. Unless you were Princess Twilight Sparkle, and you were too busy debating whether you should take apart an Element of Harmony or not. Destroying…- 231.2 K • Completed
- Rarity sometimes likened Twilight to light. It was a peculiar word to describe somepony, wasn’t it? Or that’s what Twilight would say, at least. She’d roll her eyes and point out that light was a concept, a notion, the result of the sun shining overhead or a candle flickering in the darkness. And yet, Twilight Sparkle was like light. Rarity could be clever and point out that the word itself was inscribed in the alicorn’s name, or that her first name represented a shifting in light between day…

- “Oh, Rarity, it’s lovely!” Inside Carousel Boutique, Rarity smiled at her customer and adjusted her glasses. She took the dress she’d spent all morning working on and made a few last-second adjustments. “Yes, it’s quite the design, if I do say so myself!” she agreed, carefully folding the dress and setting it inside its box. “I’m terribly sorry I took so long with it, Spring, but I’ve been traveling quite a lot as of late.” Spring Showers shook her head. “Oh, it’s all…

- Heart’s Haven. A secluded village known for its curious location at the bottom of Galloping Gorge, next to Galloping Valley. Local tourism books stated that many centuries ago, a river flowed at the bottom of the gorge, and it was only after it had dried out inexplicably that ponies founded the town down below. Local ghostly princesses begged to differ, however, claiming that actually, Rarity, Rustle River did not dry out, but was moved underground by Princess Celestia and Princess Luna so that…

- No one said anything after that, and especially less so Princess Twilight Sparkle. But then you came back. The statement rang in her head like a haze, every word making sense individually but not as a whole. ‘You were dead and you came back’ would make sense. ‘You were dead, then you came back’ would make sense. But she had said neither of those things. Huh. “Oh. Okay.” “Okay?” Rarity asked, looking up at the alicorn. “Okay?” “Yes,” Twilight replied,…

- Twilight Sparkle had faced nightmare versions of herself before. It was, however, one thing to face a Twilight she’d created. It was another thing entirely to face one Rarity designed. If she’d had the time to think, to pause everything and reflect upon it, she’d have felt rather horrible at seeing how that one sunforsaken mistake two years ago still haunted her significant other. But… But there was no time to sit and feel awful because the nightmare Twilight didn’t much care for any of…

- An entire week went by before Twilight agreed to talk. An endless number of tasks kept appearing on the checklist, kept moving up the list of priorities, and Rarity allowed them to. It had been over a week, yes, but even so, she could still vividly picture the memories Twilight had inadvertently shared, as well as the fear and guilt that had accompanied them and briefly plagued Rarity. In that moment, Twilight Sparkle’s carefully constructed barriers had been ripped away, and it was only polite for…
