It's not easy to go back to your life after a thousand years of insanity and exile. It's not easy for Luna to even leave her room. All the same, there's a special somepony that Luna desperately wants to get closer to, and that's worth facing the outside for. All she has to do is get up the nerve to talk to her.

The legend is known throughout Equestria, but there are few who believe. Those who claim to have seen the beast are dismissed as crackpots and madponies. Those who bring evidence before the world are dismissed as histrionic deceivers. There are those who have seen, however -- those who know -- and they will forever cry out their warning from the back seats of filthy, old train cars, even to those who dismiss them, who revile them, who ignore their warnings unto their own mortal peril.

"The sasquatch is real!" they will cry forevermore, even as nopony believes.

But from this day forward, Sassy Saddles will believe.

Written on a dare. I apologize for nothing.

Twilight attempts to lose her virginity at a party during her college years.

The keyword being 'attempts'.

It was supposed to be a fun day. Simple, really. All Fluttershy wanted was to help shepherd adorable baby turtles into the sea, and eat a nice lunch on the beach with Angel afterwards.

She was not expecting to be scared out her mind by an orange-purple cube thing that seemed to distort reality with its very presence.

"Because I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and there’s not a single creature with wings I can think of who is exclusively attracted to the opposite sex.”

Now with a reading!

And another!

The graffiti did not bother her. The art of vandalism was, in some form or another, as old as civilization itself. The content, on the other hoof, was an entirely different issue. “Princest Is Wincest,” it said. Bad grammar and spelling were one thing, but this was an attack on the Equestrian language.

Luna frowned. She would have to ask Celestia about this at the first opportunity. Perhaps there were spare funds for a literacy program. If nothing else, Tia might be able to explain what exactly the phrase meant.

Raven Inkwell picked the wrong week to take a vacation. Specifically, the week when Shining Armor was brought in to consult on improving Canterlot Castle's defenses against the threat of Grogar and his cronies.

To say that Raven has a mess waiting for her when she gets back is a colossal understatement.

Not a crossover with Untitled Goose Game—as of Episode 200, the wingèd menace is canon!

In the wake of the Canterlot Wedding, Fluttershy has to ask Twilight a very difficult question. And then things get weird.

The girls of Canterlot High come up with a rather unconventional plan to save Camp Everfree.

It is a plan that requires them to take off their clothes.

Princess Celestia sent her student, Twilight Sparkle, to meet five mares in Ponyville who will help set up the Summer Sun Celebration.

She just never said they'd be hot.
