All Twilight wants is to feel appreciated. With her marriage on the rocks and loneliness tugging at her heart, she's desperate for some kind of solution. So when she spots an ad in the paper hinting at a potential romantic rendezvous... well, how could she not be curious? Thinking about it and committing are two entirely different things though, and now that's she's arrived she wonders if this isn't all a big mistake.

That's when an old friend walks through the door.

Inspired by Escape (The Piña Colada Song).

Now with a Ukrainian translation by volkov!

Chrysalis Chrysanthemum is one of the most powerful, feared individuals in the world of corporate business. There is nothing she can't do if she puts her mind to it. At least, that's what she always thought. Then a girl named Sunset Shimmer drops into her life. Chrysalis is set to discover that of all the ways she has succeeded, there's one thing she failed utterly at. Make that three things.

Now she must face the hard truth and find some way to fix it. If only she had the faintest clue how.

The story of Chrysalis as a mother in two parts. Inspired by a long-held and beloved headcanon of mine.

Pre-reading done by Wandering Twilight, Ghost Mike, ShiningBeacon, and AuroraDawn.

Cover art commissioned from AmazingPuffhair, who surprised me by getting it done perfectly in only one try.

Since she became an alicorn princess, Princess Twilight Sparkle has done her best in her role as one. However, while she had grown into a remarkable princess and even gained her own student in Starlight Glimmer, Twilight wasn't a true princess.

At least, she wasn't according to Princess Celestia. It was time for Twilight to take her place as one of Equestria's true princesses.

However, Twilight would not like what it would require her to do. She wasn't going to be the only one to not like it.

It was a simple, straightforward question. Or at least, that’s what she thought. Nevertheless, she looked at the mare opposite to her and cocked her head. “Pardon me, but, do I know you?”

Many are the tales of otherworldly beings coming to mortal peoples to offer their powers in exchange for something precious. Twilight never gave those stories much attention, until one such being arrived in her home one day, offering her one of those infamous contracts. Unfortunately, the demon might have wanted to choose his clients more carefully.

~~~You asked, you receive. Bonus chapter up~~~

Twilight has successfully created fake government jobs to help her terminally broke friends be less, uh, terminally broke. All they have to do is pass a simple little background check, just an easy little formality really. Should be no problem for these national heroes, right?

Right?

Well....

I guess the constituent parts of the cover art might be property of the federal gubbermint, but, honestly, I feel like I've spent enough on ATF tax stamps to make me stealing their crisp PNGs an equal exchange.

Its been centuries since Twilight's friends passed and since then the alicorn has taken many students. The latest one of which is about to get to the bottom of a two hundred-year-old lie.
