Now, I know this is an overused story idea. Vinyl and Octy, dorm mates. Only read this sixty thousand times. So what's new this time around? Well, three unique twists. One, Vinyl is half changeling, and her abilities are feeding off emotion in general, not just love. But she doesn't know this. The more she siphons off of others, the more worn out they become, which can lead to having severe side effects eventually. The other two secrets are spoilers, and I can't be telling you them, can I? Although I do give a tiny hint of both of them in the first chapter.

This is a reboot of my story The Formative Years, but its significantly different this time around. No reckless self inclusions. Less major plot twists. Octavia is a steadier character, who shows real growth. The inclusion of Lyra as a main character. And after the first few chapters, the story lines will be have started going seperaye ways. And above all, no TARDIS stealing ponies killing the Master and ending the story. So, read on.
