History Fanfic / MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicSeason10

* AmicableExes: Cadance and Buck Withers are these. They are friendly enough with each other that Cadance invites Buck and his significant other to Flurry Heart’s second birthday party. Shining isn’t happy about it because Buck used to pick on him in school.

* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: When Grogar gives the Legion of Doom positions in his army, he threatens to feed them to his pet grizzly bear, Scarface, if they don't comply. Scarface is big and menacing enough to make Tirek, the biggest and strongest after Grogar, nervous.
* TheAtoner: In "Sleeping Chaos", upon realizing the harm he’s done to Twilight and Equestria by uniting the Legion of Doom, Discord tries to make amends by creating a Tantabus for himself like Luna did.

* TheBully: Introduced in "Flight School Reunion", Rough Air was an even worse bully to Rainbow and Fluttershy than the colts that teased them in flight school. Unlike the other colts, Rough Air was willing to get physically violent. Furthermore, Rough Air has a disability that won’t allow him to do things like becoming a Wonderbolt. He uses this as his main motivation to bully great fliers like Rainbow.
* TheBusCameBack: Suri returns for the first time since season four, specifically seeking revenge against Rarity.
** Svengallop returns and attempts to use a band for his own gain. Applejack and Rara work together to ensure he suffers consequences this time around.
* DisappearedDad: Spitfire's father, a former Wonderbolt, died when Spitfire was too young to remember him well.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Lavan has one in Zeb. He is the only reason Lavan works with Grogar. Chrysalis and Tirek are loved ones for each other after falling in love.
* {{Forgiveness}}: A central theme of "The Tragedy of Gallus Griffon" episode. Gallus forgives his mother for leaving him orphaned, but doesn’t forgive his father for causing him to be orphaned in the first place.
* HereWeGoAgain: In "Sleeping Chaos", Lyra has this reaction when a giant apple monster terrorizes Ponyville again like when Big Macintosh proposed to Sugar Belle, and Bon-Bon shares her reaction when they get conjoined together like they did when Luna combined Ponyville’s dreams to stop her Tantabus. Both moments pass quickly as they are moments of Discord unconsciously creating chaos due to a lack of sleep.

* ParentalAbandonment: Gallus was abandoned this way due to his father killing his mother and himself because he felt like he failed to change Griffonstone into a better place. Gallus sees this as a blessing in a way because it let him find a new family in the Young Six.

* SpotTheImposter: In "Sleeping Chaos", while in Discord’s mind to figure out how to help him sleep again, Fluttershy and Luna find him there. It only takes Luna moments to detect that something is wrong with Discord’s magic, and deduces that he is a fake- it’s actually a Tantabus disguised as Discord.

* WhatTheHellHero: In "The End is Only the Beginning", Celestia and Luna give one to Discord after they force him to see Twilight in her hospital bed. Remember that even though his actions were only meant to boost Twilight's confidence, Discord once again failed to think of the consequences.

If you thought the magic was over... think again!

''My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic'' returns for its landmark tenth season!

Princess Twilight Sparkle, now supreme ruler of Equestria, faces a personal mental health crisis that ultimately changes royal tradition for the better. At the same time, she takes a young unicorn named Luster Dawn under her wing and teaches her the magic of friendship just as she once herself was taught.

Together with her friends Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy, Twilight works to spread the magic of friendship throughout Equestria while confronting challenging life situations!
