Orson’s graduation party was almost everything he imagined it would be. But considering how low the prices for venues could be these days, he would’ve been insane not to take full advantage. Besides, after four years of financial responsibility in college, his family was footing the bill for once.The party couldn’t be perfect, of course. Where his college town had once had a dozen different bakeries, now there was only the single big-box store left, and its selection of non-pony related treats left…-

"I can't believe I almost missed it!" Iron Feather exclaimed. He took the book from Lotus, turning it over in his hooves.She let him have it without much resistance, backing towards the door. She felt much better after cleaning up, but some part of her would feel strange until she got dressed. "You expected to realize I could... puke books?" she asked. She still had a towel wrapped around her lower body, but in practice it didn't cover much. She couldn't get tight without restricting her legs, which…-

Marie did not have good dreams. Her entire world was a raining, stormy mess, flashing white as she bumped and rolled down an endless hill. The impact at the end was always the same, violent enough that she could hear it through her bones instead of her ears.But then there were others. She was still asleep, that was undeniable—but somehow she wasn’t alone anymore? Like a crowd of ghostly spectators were crowding around her. Not to mock—this wasn’t school—they were here to help her.Maybe the…-

The next morning passed in a rush. The ponies in school seemed to wake at different times. Lauren and Preston woke among the earliest, along with many of the others with wings. Despite waking just before dawn, Lauren didn’t feel tired. Preston didn’t seem to either.Fortunately for them, there were enough other winged ponies that someone had been called to organize breakfast. For everything else that had changed since yesterday, cereal with milk still tasted as bland as ever. There was at least one good…-

"My friends escaped containment and 'treatment' in the Starfall hospital. They had already watched friends die, or suffered permanent injuries at the hands of the ones trying to 'save' them. I had to get them free. Of course, if the place they escape to gets destroyed, that isn't very helpful either." "You know this death is coming, but you're still here," said Azelf. They bobbed up and down in front of the map table, only occasionally looking back at…-

Phil broke past the defensive end in a triumphant burst of speed. Fingers brushed against the edge of his uniform—then he was through. The yards fell away beneath him as he approached the end zone, entirely focused on his speed. Any second now there would be a crushing impact, driving him to the ground.Phil was so utterly focused that he missed what was happening to him, at least at first. He might've missed it completely, if it wasn't for the cheering. This was a season-defining moment, clutching a…-

Gabriella obviously wasn’t from any of the clans of birds who ruled the Republic now, or even the empire at the time of the Migration War. I might not have an exhaustive knowledge, but I had a fair idea about the distinct physical patterns. This bird was indeed one of the Equestrian variety, with feathers in a simple pidgeon gray.“I had a visit from Dawn yesterday,” she said, glaring down at me with an expression I couldn’t quite read. “She told me you might be coming.” She looked me up and…-

The human airship had been impressive in its own way, even if it became incredibly frustrating as soon as the engines actually turned on. But Ocellus kept her mouth closed and didn’t complain during the flight. Compared to her friends, she was fantastically lucky. At least she didn’t have to spend the entire trip strapped into one place for fear that walking around would unbalance the whole thing.Equestria might not know how to make airships stay as warm inside, they might not know how to make them out…

Twilight Sparkle knew she didn’t have much time to act. Freezing water poured in from all around them, water that was cold enough to reach through her fur right to her soul the instant it touched. Much of this priceless relic was being destroyed in that contact, shelves knocked over, scrolls that had been preserved by the ice now being torn to shreds as that same ice melted.Any thoughts of relief—that the artifact might still be working—would have to wait for the moment where her and her friends…-

Say that they should stay in Star Hall, if they can make it work 80%"I'd be leaving people behind if I stayed," Wayfinder began. "My sister is out there. I'd have to go back and get her. But before I did that, I'd want to know how this place works. How you're able to survive the dangers.""What even is the Overgrowth?" Ruby interrupted. "This awful forest is getting bigger all the time, forcing the isolation zone to burn it back. We've already seen at least one danger, presumably there are a bunch more. But…-
