After putting on the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was shown just how much of a monster she really is. But that wasn't all the Elements did to her.

Sunset has now been forced to serve penance by answering any question truthfully and by doing anything asked of her, whether she wants to or not.

And she really doesn't want to.

Until all of the hatred in her heart is gone, Sunset is at the whim of her peers, unbeknownst to them of course. Can her new "friends" help her down the road to redemption?

If not, there's always that other Twilight Sparkle she keeps running into.

This story is a sequel to Sour Sweet, the Christmas Parade Critic

Schizophrenic symptoms include severe mood swings of course, however they also include delusions of persecution, the beliefs of the afflicted that those around them will betray or hurt them.

You and Sour Sweet attend Sunny Flare’s toga party where a drunken Gilda ridicules Sour Sweet for having not “given any” to her boyfriend yet. Afterwards, Sour Sweet begins to believe that you’re going to leave her. Even worse, it will be her friends to take you away. It’s up to you to set her mind straight and perhaps help her begin to open up sexually in the process.

( Contains no actual sex, just discussion, strong language, and the one naughty, titular gesture )

This story is a sequel to Sour ‘n Sweet ‘n Pretty

You take your girlfriend, Sour Sweet to go see Canterlot City’s Christmas parade. Naturally, she mocks the whole thing.

Also, Derpy seeks the autograph of the parade’s Guest of Honor, Time Turner, star of the Doctor Whooves TV series… and it may only be up to her best friend, Rainbow Dash to make that happen!

( Serves as a follow-up to Riding Into the Future as well, however it's not required reading to enjoy )

You’re a shy guy attending Crystal Prep who’s had a deep crush on Sour Sweet for years. One morning, you finally gather the courage to compliment on how pretty she is. There’s only one problem. She doesn’t agree.

This story is a sequel to Sour Sweet Reality

During a visit to Sunny Flare's mansion, Sour Sweet explains how her anxieties make her feel that having a mental condition means that she shouldn’t have children. As fate would have it, she discovers that she has run out of her medication the very next morning. Deciding to stay home from Crystal Prep and wait for her mother to pick up more, she learns that not all hallucinations are terrifying… especially those that call her “mama”.
