It's that time.

Well, it's about that time. As much as I hate leaving things unfinished I just haven't been feeling much love for MLP in a while. The stories here no longer interest me and I really haven't watched an epsiode in at least a year if not more. Why am I doing this? I guess to head off any questions as to where I've been or if such and such a story will be continued.

So, in case anybody is interested, here are the notes I have on stories I was working on, the bits and bobs that don't make up a complete chapter and in some cases the idea of where it was going.

Killer.txt: Not much to go on but the idea of a pony being a serial killer and one that was well known. No, I didn't have an idea as to who it was and no it's got nothing to do with Cupcakes because it wasn't going to be Pinkie Pie. For a while I was thinking Fluttershy but it doesn't matter now.

Honeysuckle came to with a massive headache and a dry mouth, "must have had too much last night," she moaned to herself as she tried to get up to get a glass of water. But she found she was unable to move. Somehow somepony had captured her and tied her up. Fully awake now she strained at her bonds, trying to escape but it was a futile effort as the shackles were quite tight and allowed her very little movement. Looking about fearfully she tried to see where she was and maybe if there was something here that could allow her to escape.

"Struggle all you want my dear, you're not going anywhere, " a muffled androgynous voice came from behind her.

She almost screamed out in surprise but was able to hold onto a little bit of her resolve. "What's going on? Who are you?! What do you want?!?" Honeysuckle managed to ask with more than a little bit of panic in her voice.

"You're tied up. That's of no consequence. And I want to hear you scream, " the voice said with a terrible lack of emotion. She heard them move and out of the corner of her eye saw a surgical tray being rolled into position. The knives and bone saws all looked cold and extremely sharp. Honeysuckle felt the edges of abject terror slowly creeping up on her as she struggled not to cry. No! She wouldn't give them the satisfaction of seeing her fear or hearing her screams. She'd hold out as long as she could and maybe, Celestia willing, she'd die before she broke.

"Let's get started shall we?" she heard the voice coming from above her. She opened her eyes and looked up into the eyes of her killer.

"You!" she managed to squeak.

"Yes. It's me...," the figure said as the first incision was made. Honeysuckle held out for 30 seconds before she screamed in agony as her skin was slowly sliced from her body.

[line break]

"That's the third one this week!" Applejack said as she looked deeply into her mug of cider. Another body had been dumped in the central square of Ponyville when nopony had been around to see. This one had been skinned and by the look of horror on her face, she was still alive when it happened. The only clue to the killer's identity was a bloody hoofprint and the word, "remember" left at the scene of every crime.

"I know right? This whole thing has everypony rattled. Nopony is safe and everypony is scared. They're even saying nopony should be alone with anypony," Rainbow Dash replied as she finished her cider and went to pour herself another. Luckily for her Applejack was too worried and down to mention it.

"Oh buck up you two!" the ever ebulient Pinkie Pie said. She was doing her best to keep the spirits of her friends up but even she was finding it difficult given the situation. However she still gave it all she had because she felt that if she stopped for whatever reason she might start crying.

"At least we know Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and her friends are safely away from Ponyville, " Rarity added. "I would hate for them to have to stay here while these monsterous acts are being held."

Galahad.txt: My attempt at a Gentlemen for Mares story. Guy's callsign would be "Galahad" as he thinks himself to be gallant and noble.

When the doorway between Equestria and Earth was opened it was seen as being a good thing by mostly everybody or everypony depending on your point of view. It didn't take long for both worlds to open diplomatic relations with each other which eventually led to trade, travel and trouble not necessarily in that order. The first two were unremarkable but it was the mingling of the races that some people, and ponies, objected to.

It wasn't so much that these two different species were interacting with each other so much that a new industry had opened up on Equestria namely the creation of the "Gentlemen". If a mare ever wanted male companionship for the night, but couldn't find a stallion, she could call on the services of one of these humans to... well... service her. They didn't come cheap but mares swore by them as being more caring, lasting longer and generally making a mare feel like a real mare and not just something to get off to.

Many were called, few were chosen. Being a Gentleman was more than just being a walking sex machine. It was being a companion for those lonely nights. It was being available for whatever the customer had in mind. And it also meant that when you went back home to visit, people would call you a horsefucker. Which technically was untrue as they were ponies but the idea was the same.

And so we find Miles Anderson, a young man in his early 20's who due to circumstances beyond his control found himself in Equestria with little money after having been swindled by a couple of fast talking ponies. After a few failed attempts at getting a job he was approached by a mare who invited him to a job interview like no other he had ever had.

- Taken before the tester so to speak.
- Check how he speaks and acts.
- physical exam.
- casting couch
- Chooses the callsign of Galahad.
- Need to put something between his getting accepted and his first client. Maybe some aspect of life in Equestria.
- Gets his first client, he's nervous and so is she.

He knocked on the door at precisely 7pm. There was a clatter of hooves from inside, a voice called out "be there in a moment" and after a few moments a pretty mare opened the door and ushered him inside.

Once the door was closed he dropped to one knee and with a warm smile said, "my dear, I'm here on behalf of Gentlemen for Mares and I'm yours for the evening. You may call me, " he pulled out his card with an almost theatrical flourish, "Galahad". She went to take the card from his outstretched hand but in that moment he took her hoof, and gently brushed it with his lips. Buttercup blushed fiercely at this. He had just given her a Royal Salute(?) but she was just a common pony. When he looked at her, his eyes brimming with kindness and gentleness she knew that he would be perfect for her first time.

"I don't know," she said bashfully. "I've never done this before."

"You mean with a Gentleman?"

Buttercup shook her head but didn't seem to want to provide the answer.

"Have you ever been with a stallion?"

Buttercup again shook her head and if she could draw back further into herself she would have.

"What about a mare?" he asked with a hint of amusement in his voice but her blush spoke volumes. "It doesn't matter my dear. If you just want to sit and talk we can do that. If you prefer that we just go to dinner, that is perfectly fine. And if, at some point, you feel you are ready you have only to ask."

Buttercup mustered up her courage and spoke the words she needed to say. "I want you but I don't know what to ask for."

"Well then tell you what my dear. We can start and try certain things. If at any time you don't like it or it makes you feel uncomfortable, then please let me know and we'll stop or try something else. Does that sound good?"

- Start with kissing and gentle caressing. Try to give lots of feels without getting too porny.
- Move onto licking
- fingering and oral until she cums
- Galahad moves to put it in but she stops him. "I don't know if I'm ready".
- "Your body feels ready"
- Plays with her a little longer
- get it on

- More aspects of life in Equestria.
- After hours stuff with other Gentlemen just hanging out.

Continuations: I've left the filename I saved these things under for whatever reason. It made sense at the time

Doorway Side Stories: Apple2.txtThe continuation of Apple Bloom's and Jake's romance, him finding out she's a pony and their respective takes on it. I haven't bothered writing completely in her idiom as I normally go back and fix it later.

Apple Bloom held the nail in place and carefully went to hammer it in only to have it go in crooked. "Horseapples!" she yelled in frustration. This was the fifth time she messed this up today. It was true, her mind was not on her work but kept drifting back to her Jake. Yes it was true, she was a filly in love with a human but deep down it didn't matter to her. She looked at Twilight and Rick and how happy they were together as well as Rarity and Spike. So why not her and Jake?

Just thinking about him made her feel funny inside and made her feel other things too. It had been several months since they had started dating and while Jake was holding back because he didn't want to ruin anything, Apple Bloom felt no such need. She was a farm filly at heart and as such she was very uncomplicated. If she wanted something, she would get it and right now she wanted him. No point in continuing this job if she was this scatterbrained so she dusted herself off and trotted off to the Golden Oaks library to call her sweetie and set up the date for tonight.

Jake was currently at work mooning over Apple Bloom when an errant crab apple hit him in the chest.

"Hey loverboy!" his supervisor called out to him. "Your woman's on the phone!" Assorted catcalls and other slightly more rude sounds were made as he hurried over to speak with his girlfriend.

"Hey Apple Bloom. What's up?"

"Oh hi Jake! It's so good to hear your voice! Ah was wonderin if'n you was free tonight? Ah'd really like ta see ya!"

"That would be great Apple Bloom but I don't get paid until tomorrow and I'm a little tapped out right now."

"That's alright. Come get me at 8. We'll tell my Aunt an' Uncle that we're heading out. Then we'll park a little up the road bring some blankets with us, watch the stars in the meadow, cuddle, make out and see how far we can go?"

Jake was speechless. All these months he'd been holding back becasue he didn't want to scare her away and also her Uncle gave him a bit of a talk one night when he came to pick her up. But she sounded like she wanted to sleep with him?

"Jake? You still there?"

"Oh yeah! Sorry, just to clarify, when you say how far we can go do you mean what I think you mean?"

"Well, if you think I mean that we can rut then you'd be right. Pick me up at 8?"

"Yeah! I mean yes! I-I-I'll be there!"

- Getting ready for the date
- Come pick her up.

"Twi?" Rick said walking in on Twilight in the library as she scanned the bookshelves for something to read.

"Hmmm?"

"Did Apple Bloom say anything strange to you when she showed up this evening?"

"No. Why do you ask?"

"I don't know. That Jake kid looked eager and terrified at the same time when he came to the door and Apple Bloom practically raced out the door when he showed up."

- Twilight says something possibly cryptic here. Or we just cut.

- Lie down on the blanket.
- Both profess their love
- don't get graphic.
- Things go well and Apple Bloom gets back to Sweet Apple Acres late but just incredibly giddy and happy.

- Something happens that forces her to choose between her family and Jake. Granny Smith dying? Applejack not happy with this?

- Chooses her family and gives a tearful goodbye to Jake who is left broken hearted.
- Tries a grand, romantic gesture to get her back.

Jake had spent the better part of the night drinking and mourning his loss. Apple Bloom had been his one. She was the most amazing woman he had ever met and she gave him a bullshit reason why they couldn't see each other anymore. She had to go back to the commune? Well he'd see about that. Images flashed in his mind about breaking into her Aunt and Uncle's place. He snorted at the thought. They weren't related. They might have been close and known each other for a long time but they weren't really her Aunt and Uncle! Maybe they were the reason. Yeah, her Uncle didn't like him and made Apple Bloom leave.

He somehow made it to the farmhouse without causing an accident or killing himself in the process. He would search the house, find her address somewhere and then drive day and night until he got to the commune. He'd fight off every single hippy he could find until he made his way to Apple Bloom. They'd kiss, she'd promise never to run away and everybody would be happy! At least that's what played out in his mind. Reality was much more prosaic.

Jake used the spare key he had seen Apple Bloom use more than once to break in but he didn't know where the light switch was and stumbled around the kitchen only to fall very loudly down the stairs to the basement. Noise from upstairs told him that the owners had woken up and he heard Rick call out, "you better get out! I've got a gun and I'm not afraid to use it!" Jake panicked and ran into what he thought was a closet but in actuality was the portal room to Equestria. He stumbled through the other door, discovered that he had suddenly grown two extra feet and wasn't able to catch himself before hitting one of the shelves headfirst and knocking himself out.

The next morning, Jake awoke with a pounding headache and found he couldn't walk properly and decided to just crawl to the washroom to get some water. He must have really tied one on last night because his clothes were all twisted around him and took some time to get them off. When he found the washroom he noticed that even though he was crawling he was able to see the mirror and reach the sink without a problem. Nudging the tap to turn it on he put his mouth under the spigot and just drank from it that way.

He felt a little better but that all changed when he looked into the mirror and saw a stranger looking back at him. Turning his head back and forth he couldn't believe what it was he was seeing. Somehow he was now a pony. Even his hands had been turned into hooves which could explain why instead of taking his clothes off normally he just ripped them as best he could. It was about that time that he heard somebody moving about outside. Looking through a crack in the door he noticed a lavender unicorn walking about and getting things ready. A moment later two smaller ponies bounded into view followed by a large brown pony.

"Okay, I'll take these two to school. See you soon, " the brown pony said as he kissed the lavender one and ushered the smaller ones out the door. But what Jake thought the really weird part was that he sounded like Apple Bloom's uncle.

- Sneak out and explore Ponyville.
- Catches a glimpse of Apple Bloom in her pony form. Doesn't recognize her but catches her eye and can tell it's her.
- follows her to the Carousel Boutique where she meets with Sweetie Belle
- hears her talk and immediately calls out her name

"Jake?" Apple Bloom said looking at the _________ colored stallion in front of her. She saw his eyes, teared up and launched herself at him knocking him down and proceeded to kiss him over and over again.

Girl from Another Place: Girl3.txtWell, I guess the truth can be told now but I was Umachan. Not all of him mind you but I was the one that wrote this story and gave it to him. We played off each other and eventually he got too busy to continue the whole thing and gave me his account before I got bored with playing two people and decided to have him go away. I think I did pretty well there for a while because nobody ever questioned him or me for that matter. If anybody is interested he's a lawyer now, he married his girlfriend, she's pregnant and they moved to Seattle.

I woke up the next day to find myself alone on the couch. Looking around I couldn't see that anything valuable had been stolen and was about to call out when I heard a noise from upstairs coming from my fathers office.

It was a combination office / library / computer room that used to be the guest bedroom so many years ago when I was still living here but as my parents no longer entertained visitors from out of town they had slowly changed it's function over the next few years. What I found there was a bit of a surprise however. I expected it to be Twlight but what I didn't expect was how she was dressed.

The best term would be childish. It wasn't so much that she dressed like a child in children's clothes. No, she dressed perfectly fine but as if a child had raided their parent's closets and had just put on as many things as they could. She wore a pair of workout pants, mismatched socks, a skirt over the pants, a t-shirt under a badly buttoned shirt, a hat and for some reason socks on her hands. She was currently surrounded by books of every imaginable type and was so caught up in reading that she hadn't noticed me come in.

I cleared my throat and she looked up with a start only to smile when she saw it was me. Twlight got awkwardly to her feet and stumbled over before giving me a big hug. "Oh these books are wonderful! I've never seen anything like them!"

"You're welcome, " I said a little woodenly. The hug was a surprise, not that I minded. She was obviously a touchy feely kind of person. "I'm just wondering if maybe you're hungry?" I don't know what we have but I figure we could take a look if there's anything that strikes your fancy before going out for breakfast.

Twilight's stomach rumbled a bit a the mention of food and she looked away embarassed. I just chuckled a bit and said, "there's nothing to be embarassed about. C'mon, let's go."

She followed me downstairs and I checked the fridge. We had some eggs and some veggies that I could maybe use to make something but then I remembered the freezer and something my Dad used to make all the time. He was on a health kick and would make up a batch of his special muffins which contained everything good he could cram into them. They actually were pretty good, low in fat and full of dried fruits and nuts. "How about a muffin?" I said holding up the bag.

Twilight's face fell on hearing that and I went to put them back when she stopped me. "No, I'd like one it's just when you mentioned muffin it reminded me of a friend of mine. I can't remember her name but she loved muffins."

"Okay. Muffins it is." I went about defrosting them in the microwave and asked, "you want coffee or tea?"

"Oh I'd love a cup of tea. Do you have daisy by any chance?"

"They make tea out of dasies?" I asked but Twilight just looked blankly at me as if I had just asked the stupidest question in the world. "Sorry I don't drink tea but, " I looked about the cupboard for some of the herbal tea my Mom used to drink and came up with a box of chamomile. "How about chamomile? That's a type of flower. Or there's Berry Blast, Red Zinger, Mint and Apple Spice." Again, she looked a little shell shocked when I rattled off some of the names. "Are you remembering something?"

She was about to answer when the microwave beeped and she just shook her head sadly. She was keeping something from me, I know she was but I really couldn't come out and tell her. So I boiled up some water and let her choose her tea while I made myself some coffee.

- Make conversation during breakfast
- Twlight lets go another Equestrianism, Will catches it but doesn't say anything.
- Wants to go to the police as she might be a missing person.
- Twilight begs him not to call.
- Thinks she ran away from an abusive partner which means they need to be contacted more than anything.
- She says "I need you to trust me."
- Will spends time going through his parent's belongings
- Breaks down in tears partway through
- Twilight hears and comes to comfort him
- They have a moment but he quickly stands up saying he can't do this now.

- Twilight goes through some of his parent's thigns. She finds a stack of old glamor magazines and files that away for later.

- There's got to be a scene where she needs to put on a bra and he has to help her.

- They have sex for the first time. She gets ready by sticking her butt in the air. She gets surprised at changing positions but then really gets into it. Yells out "sweet Celestia" when she's cumming.

- Mayeb nickers a few times afterwards, refers to it as rutting. Mentions something about the shape of his dick?

Future Shock: Idea3.txtThe continuing saga of three mechanical ponies in an post-apocalyptic world searching for what they hope is the last bastion of humanity. No actual story. Just random notes with a small bit of the ending thrown in.

- Travel along the road. Small but minor malfunctions.
- Fluttershy's anti-grav unit fails and she falls to the ground. Legs are broken. Applejack gives her a pony back ride.
- Trapped? Natural disaster? One falls into a crevice or something?
- Applejack has a bad gear in her leg. Replace it with a rollerskate / skateboard.
- Finally Twilight and Applejack find the camp and there are humans living there.
- Run away in fear?
- Call them back, help out with whatever they can.
- Twilight starts to malfunction

"Applejack? Is that you?" Twlight called out from the darkness of the hut.

"Yeah it's me sugarcube. How y'all doin?"

"I can only see in infrared now out of my left eye. The right one is broken completely. I don't have long."

"We had some good times didn't we sugarcube?"

"The best. I just wish we..." Twilight twitched at that point and sparks flew out of her ears. "coullllldddddd....... hhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvveeeeee.............. ddooooooon-n-n-n-n-n..." and with that the light went out of her eye and she fell to the side.

Applejack sighed. She was alone but in a way she would never be alone again. There were children here. She could fulfill her function and give pony back rides and even buck apples if need be. She might be the last of her kind but after a long journey she was finally able to settle down and call this place home.

What Dreams May Come: Luna2.txtReally didn't know where to go with this one so I just decided to go for clop although I didn't get very far.

Luna sat back as the young man's dream slowly vanished, it wouldn't be long before the landscape turned back into the featureless grey expanse that was the dream dimension. It wasn't really a dimension but she liked to call it that and besides, she was the Goddess of the Night. If anypony had the right to name this place it was her.

What was fascinating about this was the change that she had undergone. Up until now, all the dreams she enterred had been of her pony subjects but this one caught her by surprise and she turned into a creature halfway between her normal self and whatever this being was called. Well almost halfway. She was a lot bumpier and rounder than he was for some reason. She did however love the feeling she got from her apendages as they were. Her hooves were gone and in their place were some rather amazing digits. And as she stared at them they slowly started to revert back to their previous form as the last vestiges of the dream finally vanished and she was once again alone, looking normal and was staring at her hooves.

Her attention was diverted away for a moment and the featureless plane of his dream started to take on a much darker tone. It was almost as if this was a part of him and now that she was no longer trying to control the dream it was trying to reassert itself. She cast it away with a wave of her horn and sat back for what she realized was going to be a long night.

It wasn't long before his dream started to change again but now that she was watching, it progressed normally and she found herself in an alien world. There were buildings around her the likes of which she had never seen, strange carriages raced through the streets, sounds like she had never heard before washed over her and the felt overwhelmed for a moment before placing her hands on her ears in an attempt to block them out. Strangely enough she had hands. Even more strange was her ears were no longer on the top of her head but on the sides. She summoned a mirror to take a look at herself and was surprised by what she saw. She looked like the young man did but with the same curves and bumps she had in the previous dream. Luna had to admit that she did like this look but it was a short lived admiration as she saw the young man show up in her mirror, turn her around and kiss her savagely on the mouth.

Dozens of thoughts ran through her mind at this point. What was going on? Why was he kissing her? And was it hot in here was it only her. The sounds of the carriages disappeared as she found them both flying through the air, their clothes falling away in the wind and things were really starting to heat up.

A Treaty With the Griffons:Griffon ending.txt As it reads, a bit of the ending for Treaty with the Griffons. Never really got around to writing the middle part of this. Basic idea is the Griffon Emperor isn't dead but was trapped in a crystal matrix and Gilda and Swift Wind are currently trying to get it back.

Gilda launched herself at the young ursurper ready to do battle to the death. The crystal matrix that the Emperor was trapped in flew from his grasp and out the window.

"No!" Swift Wind cried out and without thinking lauched himself out of the window towards the magical prison that held the Emperor in check. He tugged at the bandages around his wing until they ripped away and he was able to straighten in. Immediately pain lanced through his wing as he tried his best to keep it steady. He was gaining on the pendant as it fell but he wouldn't catch it in time. A burst of speed, he shaped his wings and was able to catch it in his teeth. The sharp rocks down below were getting closer and closer so he pulled up as best he could screaming in pain as his wounded wing cramped up. Then, with an almost audible snap, the tendon broke and he tumbled through the air as his wig fluttered uselessly in the wind.

Swift Wind curled himself around the crystal matrix and hoped that his body would protect it and not kill the Emperor in the process.

There was a screech of rage and he was violently pulled to the side as Glida swooped down and at the last possible moment saved him from being killed.

He looked up at her and saw the tears in her eyes as she landed back in the tower and gently set him on the ground. "Don't go thinkin I did this because I like you or anything dweeb!" she said, her voice thick with emotion. "I just didn't want the Emperor to to die."

"Thanks Gilda. I appreciate it." Swift Wind turned to go when there was a thump in front of him and an angry griffon blocked his way.

"You think you can just leave like that? What's the matter with you?" Gilda demanded.

"Nothing. You just said you didn't need me right?"

"Oh you are so dumb!" Gilda's claw flashed out, grabbed Swift Wind and pulled him in for a kiss.

So yeah, that's it. I'll be posting the final chapter to Doorway Side Stories after this. I was waiting for the Apple one to be completed first but since I never got to it, I'll just do it now.

It's been fun. I'd really like to thank this site and the readers that took the time to read my stories and it gave me a chance to flex my creative muscles again.

That's a shame. I thought you wrote well for an amateur. That's not a slam, in fact it's a good thing.

Hope that life treats you well and maybe we'll see you around here again.
