My take on a scene that probably should have been in My Little Pony: A New Generation. Pipp Petals and Zipp Storm finally hash things out before going on to Bridlewood.

Pipp finds something hilarious. She really, really wants to keep it.

Only a few days have passed since magic's restoration and when it comes to the little things, Pipp is still trying to adjust. Minor details like 'all of Zephyr Heights still knows I couldn't really fly' and 'I went outside and the dirt got me.' The royal family's reputation still needs a touch of repair, and that's why her mother is considering whether to send the siblings away for a while. Just until the gossip cools down.

Zipp wants to go investigate the new. Pipp would like to have her status quo back, thank you very much. So they can really fly now? Why does that mean things have to change?

...and maybe she can also make... lightning? Electricity? As in 'that stuff which keeps my phone, and therefore me, alive'?

The new might have possibilities. Which includes an increased chance of exile.

(Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.)

No pony should care what Pipp and Zipp like to do together in their spare time. Their sisters, after all. If they want to spend time alone together, could blame them?

Thanks to the heroics of Sunny Starscout, Hitch Trailblazer, Izzy Moonbow, Zipp Storm and Pipp Petals, magic has at long last returned to the land, and after many many years apart, earth ponies, unicorns and pegasi no longer live in abject fear of each other. However, there’s still one big loose end Sunny has to tie up. All it took was one little question from her new friends about her old foalhood friend Sprout Cloverleaf.

10/3/21 Now with a live read courtesy of StraightToThePointStudio! Check it out along with reads they've done of other fics!

Pipp has broken a new record, a 36 hour livestream! After a very long sleep and what can only be described as a fever dream she wakes up to a new day except something is very very different... She can't talk normally!

Hitch Trailblazer, a strong figure in the town of Maretime Bay. He's arguably one of the biggest figures there and an instrumental part in keeping the balance! He's admired and he does quite a good job at his duties. But when a certain stallion catches a cold, a few ponies are gonna have to step up in order to make up for Hitch being out of the picture! ((Hitch x Pipp!))

Being sisters, Pipp and Zipp have a bond with one another that can often be found between siblings, sharing experiences that strengthen their sisterhood. One of those experiences is simply by exchanging text messages, a private way of connecting on a personal level. Someone like Zipp, who's known her younger sister for so long, would likely know her sister through and through.

Using only the text messages to tell this story, we'll see just how well Zipp knows her sister when something appears off with her.

Made for 'The Twilight Files Contest' and the 'Hot Pony Summer Contest'. ...pretty ingenuitive, aren't I? The latter wanted a story about G5 and the prior wanted a story written in a document format (such as a transcript or a letter). Going off of that knowledge...

Now with a Youtube reading and not just one but two written reviews!

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.

Pipp Petals loses her contact lenses. And her self-confidence.
