• MLP: FiM
• Drama
• Slice of Life

The story of why this random human is the most diehard Shimmerist of all.

This ones a little non-canony since I'm updating it to take place in the real 2023. Everything that happened in the last five years from covid to Vtubers and AI art happened in this version. Also I'm going a slightly different route than a lot of the other spinoffs seem to. It focuses on someone who was left disenfranchised in the aftermath rather than empowered.
