Rainbow Dash gets a fortune cookie that says she will a get what's coming to her. She doesn't believe it but as the day goes on, the worse things get.

Five years ago, Puzzling Insanity lost her father. The anniversary is always painful, but this year, she decides to do something to distract herself.

This story is a sequel to JTHW: Journey To Hearth's Warming

17 months ago Canterlot was ripped apart and remade, Ponyville was destroyed, the main six vanished, the princesses were defeated, and a new group the Anti-Six rose. Now what is left behind for us to find? Seeing 9 ponies on their journey to find out. 9 characters intertwined together in 17 months of living hell. See the start, the end, and then the confusing stuff in between.

This is an anthology story, with almost every 17 months getting one chapter per season. Most will get around six chapters in all so I'm guessing a series of six seasons. However, once introduced, Month 17 and Month 2 will get extra chapters between every 4 months, because their months will be covering more events.

Much like my Hoodwinked series, to ensure no overloading, each chapter will be around 1k words, including the longer stories. Plus, I will be posting three chapters each month. Seasonal breaks are akin to my Journey To Hearth's Warming series, but with winter breaks at the end of November and returning in February.

For those wondering, yes, this is a remix of my Friendship Lost. Rather instead of trying to post multiple stories at once and hoping everyone stays in the loop, I've decided to just combine them all into one story. Yeah, some plot points have changed, but some paths haven't. This means, yes, Flash Sentry will be a grey character in the future, but in the past... well you are just going to have to read and find out how he gets there.

As for its connections to Journey To Hearth's Warming. At most you are required to read Season 1 episode 3, and the Season 6 Prologue. That's it. Nothing else is required for a good while in this story.

The idea behind the cover is it's what everyone sees upon looking at Canterlot now. By taking the classic image of Canterlot and splicing it through several photoshops then pasting the strange pieces of each over top of the original and then shredding it with draw n copy n paste. It's meant to feel very very wrong.

Discord knows Fluttershy and Rarity go off without him all the time.

The real question is where they go, and why?

And why is seaweed involved?

The Luxury Lotus Spa prides itself on rest, relaxation, and comfort. Sometimes they do get referrals from therapy clinics or have clients with deeper pain. Both Lotus and Aloe are well-qualified to handle these sessions, but often the responsibility of running the place leaves no time for the personal touch.

Enter Redheart. When she accepted the twins' invitation to moonlight as a spa therapist, it meant she could break away from the responsibilities and rush of her hospital duties. The slower pace and casual caseload gives her a chance to refocus, get back to the basics, and use some of the skills she learned before becoming a nurse.

Done as a commission for Doomslayer3. Think of it as a sort of novelized ASMR, if you like.

(More Characters To Be Added)

the Flower Ponies and Spa Ponies are whisked from Equestria and are thrown onto a fast freight in Ohio while the locomotive operators were getting ice cream at a trackside ice cream parlor. lord knows what's gonna happen.

This story is a sequel to Spike Pie

Spike Pie and Pinkie Pie return from the Grand galloping gala and show Limestone, Maud, Marble, Aloe, and Lotus an Old Scrapbook from when the two were younger and spend the night retelling old adventures from their childhood.

This story takes place immediately after the ending of the First Spike Pie story and I recommend you read the first story in its entirety before reading this one

Once all the dust is settled, Ember's hand maiden heads out to Ponyville on her recommendation. Once there, she's invited into the spa, where she's tasked with taking care of a certain pegasus' feather problem.

Rainbow Dash has a crush on Aloe, and has decided that it's time to tell her. To her annoyance, it seems Lotus knows her secret. Also, Rainbow Dash has a thing about people touching her hands, for some reason.

The prologue is a fun little scene I thought up to go along with the story, and the official story is only 1k, so... I'm claiming this fits into my exactly 1k stories!

This little weirdness was inspired by the random background pairing of Aloe and Rainbow Dash in my story Seducing Success, if you're interested.

There are many words that can describe the equine force of nature that is Pinkie Pie: loud, fast, bouncy, hyperactive, wild, frenzied, fun...

These are, Rarity would freely admit, normally absolutely wonderful qualities for her friend to have. However, there are circumstances where even the most universally positive qualities are... not ideal. And, she would politely insist, there is at least one place in Ponyville that Pinkie's irrepressible exuberance should never intrude upon: the spa. Rarity would consider this a reasonable arrangement.

And yet, thanks to an ill-timed conversation and the dread spectre of social politeness, these two worlds of hers will soon collide when she is forced to invite Pinkie to spend some time with her in her haven of relaxation.

Will the Ponyville Spa survive? And even if it does, will Rarity's reputation there come out unscathed? Or will, by some miracle, Pinkie bring herself down to the realm of mortals and show Rarity more about herself than she ever could have guessed.

Note: the cover picture is entirely unrelated to the story, except in as much as it involved Pinkie and Rarity at the spa and it amused me.
