One day in Canterlot, a mysterious violinist comes into town looking for a job. But after he's hired by Fancy Pants, he accidentally lets out a secret, he's an alicorn. But why is he ashamed of himself? Is it because he's an alicorn, or illiterate, or is it something else entirely?

After both of the Princesses took him under their wings, they are bound to not only help him, but to find out what he's hiding.

A Warning: This story contains a kind of charater peice of an OC Alicorn. It also contains light F/F shipping along with light M/M shipping. Also contains some dark elemtents as well as a few, (what one might call) sad moments.

But if you are interested in a story that is about an alicorn accepts himself as he is, opens up to his past secrets, then by all means, read on.

P.S. In case you haven't noticed, I've taken the advice from Flutter_Bat about editing this again and combining chapters as well. Hopefully I've improved the story. But if anyone finds a mistake, please let me know in the comments so I could fix them as soon as possible.

And a special thanks towards Ariin for editing and pokewarrior21 for proofreading. And a huge thank you to Solereclaimer & Snoman for helping me reedit this.

Music for the 1st and 3rd Movement is from the soundtrack of "The Red Violin." And for the 4th Movement, Music of Zadok the Priest, coronation anthem No. 1 by G.F. Handel; and the Flashmob of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, 4th Movement.

Charity Beller has a simple life, but a good one. The little Amish community she's a part of provides everything she could ever need, if not everything she might want. But when a mysterious pink robot appears, damaged but full of stories about somewhere called 'Equestria,' she'll be tempted by a whole new world she never suspected existed.

After the defeat of Tirek, Equestria is safe once more, but Luna can sense that her sister is troubled. When Celestia retreats to the starry realm of ascension in order to look upon the past, Luna joins her to discover what is bothering her.

When Sombra, ex-ruler of the Crystal Empire, is discovered alive and well, Twilight has her hooves full keeping the tyrannical king in check. Instead of the original plan of throwing him in a dungeon or banishing him to Tartarus, Celestia decides to go with the plan that worked out well enough for Discord.

To reform Sombra.

Pinkie takes the job, and gets right to work in helping Sombra become a better pony. Will Sombra finally change from his old, wicked ways and reform? Or will he instead strangle the annoying, pink menace known as Pinkie Pie?

Frosty Mug runs the premiere (and only) watering hole in Ponyville. He's been behind the pine for years, and listened to many a sob story, and joyous announcement. Enjoy his recollections of a rather strange week in which he served a different Element of Harmony every day, and a pony he would have never thought he'd have the honor of getting drunk. These are the memoirs of a Ponyville booze vendor.

Now with bonus drinks! Consider it 'Happy Hour'!

Warning: Shipping is mentioned.

Twilight and Celestia have been in a relationship for a while now, and Twilight decided that it was the right time to introduce her new marefriend to her parents. Celestia was nervous, of course, but thought little of it.

But when Twilight asks about Celestia's parents, things get far more complicated.

After all, it's always a little awkward when your parents aren't exactly ponies in the first place.

Super special thanks to Fuzzyfurvert and Habanc for putting up with me and my silly ideas and generally being awesome, and to OnionPie and Craine for proofing.

Midnight Storm has had a hard life. She's wandered from city to city for the past three years, and they've all eventually run her out after they've found out what she is. Against her better judgement, she's placed her last hopes on the small town of Ponyville.

The residents here are nice enough, but when they find out what she really is, will they accept her, or drive her out like all the others? And when Celestia finds out about her, what plans does the Princess of the Sun have in store for the mare?

Story now included in The Goodfic Bin

She has seen the fall of an empire, divided by its rulers. Friends turned to traitors, sibling against sibling, daughter against mother
She has felt the pains of hunger, loss of beautiful friends tarnished by rust and grime
She has stared into the very deaths of hell itself. She has lost so much more than any pony could imagine
But still remains crying out for something anypony to hear her side. To stop this civil war between the two empires
Yet no pony heard her pleads, so she donned the armor she vowed to never wear

This story was inspired by a youtube comment on this song
this is also my first fanfic ever and probably the longest thing I've ever typed up in my life.

UPDATE: 8,000 unique views! Wow! I'm incredibly flattered!

Plowpony's Day- a day of peaceful rest and relaxation. Or it was, until Twilight Sparkle badly mangled a teleportation spell. It has left her with a bad case of Horn Rot, a disease that if untreated could prove fatal. What's more, the malady is advancing faster than the slow-brewing potion that cures it!

There is one swifter cure: the Beneviolet, a star-shaped flower that grows in the distant Archback Mountains, far beyond the western borders of Equestria. Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity choose to undertake the long journey for the sake of their friend. Their path will wind through floes of ice, across gold-tinted plains, into distant forests glimmering with magic. They will learn much about the world beyond their homeland- and much about themselves, as well.

Yes, it's "Dangerous Business," here on FIMFiction. A huge debt is owed to all those who have supported me over the years. I've edited the story some to remove extraneous bolding and italics, but other than that, it remains unchanged. I hope new readers enjoy it as much as old ones did.

On advice from Luna, Celestia tries to talk to Cleverbot.

This will end well.
