This story is a sequel to Silver's Decision- The story of a bystander

My name is Silver Spoon. I never wanted to become a bully, even by association, and after last summer, I'm not. Me and Diamond Tiara had a big fight, resulting in us parting ways- permanently. Needless to say, she did not take it well.

This year I'm starting 6th grade with my new friends, Boysenberry and Sketch. I've also decided to cultivate my special talent for cooking, instead of hiding it like I used to. Things are starting to look bright.

But Diamond Tiara is starting 6th grade with her new friends too, Aquamarine and Coronet. Long story short, they don't like me.

But now I'm not sure which is worse- being the bully, or being the victim?

Stargazing is Silver Spoon's favorite hobby. The peace, the quiet, the gentle glow that covers the land, the constellations shining like diamonds in the dark.... But all of that would mean so much less without her best friend by her side. Perhaps tonight is the night to bring up a certain touchy subject, if Silver Spoon has the guts.

In the human world, Applejack’s parents are alive.

She has to meet them.

Written for the A Most Delightful Ponidox contest.

Few ponies immigrated to America in the Nineteenth Century, and none thought much about the Civil War. Battles, talk of slavery and politics... those were human things. Ponies stayed away.

Except for Soarin. Yet as he scouts the armies from above, he finds he is not alone.

Celestia: a filly of twelve. A cynical, hungry pauper, with a young sister to protect and feed.

But the food has run out. Winter has gripped the land for too long, and now the pair face starvation.

The cynic in Celestia knows she can't move the sun. But the child in her wonders... and so she tries.

(Inspired by the Donovan song of the same name.)

Snowdrop heard the twinkling in the stars in the dead of night. A sound which none other could hope to comprehend and, in her saddest moment, a single tear froze on her cheek. Down in swirled with the snow until it clicked into her hoof... And she heard it. The faint twinkle of a star.

Snowdrop's time came and went like every other pony in Equestria, but she left behind a gift of unsurpassed beauty: the glorious and intricate snowflake. But she left behind something else as well, the ever gentle and timid Snow Sparkle. Sparkle can't hear the twinkling of the snow or the stars, but she can see more than anypony. She can see how they sparkle.

This is a sequel to SillyFillyStudio's amazing video, Snowdrop

On a windy and restless autumn night, Peter and Snowdrop share some cuddles and a heart-to-heart talk.

Author's note: Just a little fluffy story that came to mind after a recent watching of "Snowdrop", which also allowed me to give Thanksgiving some overdue attention. With Nightmare Night (Halloween) and Hearth's Warming (Christmas), many overlook this holiday. Well, I found something to be thankful for and so did my characters. ^^

Special Thanks to Silly Filly Studios for giving us the gift of the adorable Snowdrop!

Diamond Tiara isn't stupid enough to do something like speak back to her mother without a plan. So when her mother calls her upstairs when she gets home after befriending the Cutie Mark Crusaders, there's only one thing she can say:

"Thanks, Mother."

After all, without her, she never could have made those stupid blank flanks want to be her friend.
