Many ponies leave out cookies on the night of Hearth's Warming Eve. It's tradition, after all.

It's been a tradition for a very long time.

Before Luna's banishment, over 1000 years ago, Hearth's Warming was a holiday about ponies coming together and be merry. But now, she found that she doubted that there was still any love left. So she asked Cadence about that; and she told her, Celestia and Twilight a story about love.

This story is a sequel to Daughter of Discord

As Hearth's Warming draws near, every pony runs into some holiday drama. Mothball searches for the perfect gift for his marefriend, Screwball; Prism fears her parents Rainbow Dash and Soarin won't make it home for the holidays, while Discord has to make amends to a filly whom he accidentally told there was no such thing as Santa Hooves.

Hearth's Warming Eve.

For the ponies of Equestria, it is a time of giving and great joy, but for little Rose Aphid it could be the last day of her life. For you see, Rose is an outcast female changeling, and it has been a long time since she has felt love or kindness.

With time running out, her journey takes her to the most unlikely of places in search of love.

The first story in the Life of a Rose.

Twilight is home for the holidays, and she and her brothers have a special little tradition between them as they reflect on the events past.

Hearth's Warming is considered the most wonderful time of the year. It's especially true in Our Town, where the holidays promise an opening of a new ski resort and a plethora of family reunions. Everypony is anxious to rebuild old relationships and show them their home, and spend the snowy days in the comfort of their homes and the warmth of family love.

With the exception of Sugar Belle, who doesn't want anything to do with her father.

When Party Favor realizes that Sugar Belle would be lonely on Hearth's Warming, he, Double Diamond, and Night Glider conspire to have their friend be a part of each of their families for a short time, so that she would have somepony to celebrate with.

Still, with Party Favor still having tensions with his own father, Night Glider clashing with her sister, and Double Diamond trying to make sure the opening goes smoothly while simultaneously keeping his siblings under control, Sugar Belle is not sure that plan would go smoothly.

Warning, ship alert! This story has a bit of SugarFavor, so read at your own risk.
Takes place before The Cutie Re-Mark.

If there's something Daring Do hates, it's fancy Hearth's Warming parties.
If there's something Daring Do loves, it's saving the world.

Combine the two, watch how long she lasts.

On Hearth's Warming Eve, Cogs gets the biggest surprise and the best present ever when Twilight Sparkle pays him and his family an unexpected visit.

This is a Christmas/Hearth's Warming special one-shot that takes place a few years after Cogs met Lavender, early during the Growing Up Dandy story.

With Hearth's Warming Eve just around the corner, Twilight Sparkle's followers are beginning to lose hope in one another. Supplies are low, and spirits even lower. Twilight begins to doubt herself, for how can she lead ponies if she can't even be trusted to feed them?

It will take the love of her friends, and the compassion of all those who call her their leader, to make it through this year's Hearth's Warming Eve. This winter, Twilight and her friends will realize that so long as the fires of friendship burn in their hearts, no pony will ever be cold.

Optional musical accompaniment located in first comment per chapter.

With her friends out of town for the holiday it's looking like Scootaloo will have a very lonely Hearth's Warming Eve. As fate would have it her honorary big sister is having a similar problem.
