      Together we sang, I’m ready now Cover
      by Monochromatic I. My dear Twilight Sparkle, I’d hoped to speak with you on the train to your Coronation. Or perhaps not. I’m not entirely sure what I would have said, too busy finishing your dress, too busy delicately pushing it all away. In truth, if the girls hadn’t come along, if things had gone as planned, I don’t believe I would have said a thing. I would have kept it a secret. And we know a thing or two about secrets, don't we, darling? This unspoken desire that started so long ago, on…

Twilight was sure ‘rareté’ must mean perfection in French because that’s what she was. Twilight looked up towards one of the nearby library tables, and watched as Rarity listened to her personal tutor. The elder mare was…

      The Interview Cover
      by Monochromatic Twilight Sparkle had the tendency to get carried away. It was one of her personality quirks, and though her friends would usually grin and bear it, sometimes it could prove to be a little too much. “Rarity, this is getting ridiculous! We haven’t seen her for days!” Rainbow Dash said, following behind Rarity as they made their way through the castle’s hallways, avoiding ponies hurrying back and forth. Rainbow shot an errant pony a suspicious look before continuing, “Look at…
