A Penny for the Old Guy
Knowing the exact moment when you're going to die can be a blessing or a curse. Having the ability to watch the clock get longer and shorter with every choice you make, well, that's just torture.
No matter the threat, autumn days in Canterlot had always seemed so golden and fair. Though it had been a fact for years that one must watch their life tick away, growing shorter or longer with each decision made, the death of a close friend elicits a more imminent response. Fumbling through their grief, six friends must learn to deal not only with the tragedy, but with their own fears and uncertainties. Each trying a different means to recover from the news, they must learn to both enjoy what time they have left, and find a means to pay their own ferryman.
