Chrysalis is dying and she has but one thought on her mind. When she is gone from the world, who will care for the one thing in the world she values above life itself?

What will she sacrifice? How much of her pride will be thrown aside? To what lengths will she go to ensure her daughter's life? Will she beg a mortal enemy for mercy, not for herself but for an innocent foal? She is already willing to die for her child so what else could she give to be certain of the filly's sustained happiness?

This story is a sequel to My Neighbor

Mr. Arrow was a friend to her family. Now, Applejack joins him on his yearly visit to Arlington.

Reading My Neighbor is not strictly necessary for this story, but it is very short and will give a lot of context. Other stories with Mr. Arrow are My Neighbor's War and My Neighbor's Neighbor.

As a Memorial Day Tribute, this story is dedicated to all those who have served, especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice. For any veterans living with trauma, I've placed a link here for the veteran helpline. There is no shame in needing to talk to someone. You served us. Let us serve you.

Now with sequels (can be read in any order, though it's best to start with 'My Neighbor'): Their Neighbors, My Neighbor's War, and My Neighbor's Neighbor

Rainbow Dash's mom receives a letter about her daughter's heroism in combat. Now she sits, shaking and trying her best to keep it together as she reads the letter at the kitchen table with tears coursing down. Her daughter was a hero. Was. You see, Captain Rainbow "Danger" Dash of the 91st Wing...isn't coming home.

EDIT: I was contacted and a brony (Seal2001) did a translation of it in Chinese. It's beautifully done and I think it deserves some love. You can find it in the following link

The day had been saved, the Villainous Trio defeated and safely placed in the garden of the School of Friendship. Everycreature was happily celebrating the win and enjoying themselves... everycreature except Ocellus. No, she had someone she needed to talk too now that she had the chance, even if that person couldn't listen anymore.

All good things must come to an end.

What if Twilight never became a Princess? In this alternate world, she too experiences the ravages of time. As her life draws to a close, Twilight Sparkle reminisces on the ponies she's touched... and the ponies she had to learn to let go of.

This fic was written while S2 was still airing. I've cleaned it up a little, but otherwise this is the original story.

This story is a sequel to The Snap

Warning: Mild spoilers for Avengers: Endgame.

After the Avengers' desperate effort to gather the Infinity Stones, Bruce Banner snaps his fingers. Across the multiverse, his efforts to restore the damage done by Thanos reverberate, restoring everyone lost to the dust. Sunset Shimmer and her friends once again feel the power of the Infinity Stones, only this time, as a force for good.

In one world, Thanos snaps his fingers. In another, his intent to balance is spread far and wide. Sunset Shimmer and her friends, unaware of the terrible battle, are faced with the effects.

(One-shot I came up with based on the cover art)

Edit: My first featured story, on 7/6/18. Holy smokes, I think this is the most popular thing I've ever written. Thanks, everybody!

Princess Twilight Sparkle has overseen peace and prosperity throughout Equestria for as long as ponies can remember. During a quiet evening, Twilight tells the tale of her many adventures to her latest student and how she remembers her friends long passed.

But she can't tarry too long, for she has a long-overdue meeting to attend.

*Takes place a couple of centuries after the end FIM*

Edited by the absolutely fantastic Helping Hoof who helped tremendously in getting this story together.

Twilight is taking tea, just like she used to with the princess. She's the princess' faithful student actually. Did you know that?
