Twilight Sparkle had everything she wanted and then it exploded.

That was last week. And sure, she got a swank new castle out of it, but that's poor consolation. Coping with what she's lost - and gained - isn't as easy as it sounds. It's a good thing she doesn't have to deal with this on her own.

Twilight Sparkle and Celestia are seeing one another.

They both want it - happiness, to share in their moments, trials and tribulations, all of it, no matter the changes that come.

Now they just have to tell the parents. It should be simple enough.

But a lot of things are simple at first.

My extra special, somewhat belated thanks go to friends Tired Old Man and Vylon for much editing, and additional thanks to Tired Old Man for penning the wonderful title description above. You guys are great, you really are.

An alternative to HiE stories. Midnight, a 14th century knight's steed and veteran of numerous battles during the hundred years war, faces her demise during one such engagement only to find that fate has other plans in store; including a chance to start anew in another world. But can a mare who knows nothing but conflict adapt to a land ruled by peaceful pastel-coloured ponies, or will it prove too much?

Warning: contains brief scenes of descriptive violence; especially in earlier chapters. Not enough to warrant an M rating, I think, but hopefully the mods will let me know if I'm wrong.

In the magical land of Equestria, two alicorn sisters raise the Sun and the Moon every day to give the world a night and day cycle, basic for the survival of life. There are also two alicorns who rule over two very core aspects of life and harmony itself. Those are Love and Friendship. While not as ancient as the two sisters, all princesses are essential to the world's balance.
This balance is also sustained by the hard-working ponies, who make the seasons change and manage the weather to fit their needs, so everypony has enough food and water, and every animal is also attended to assure that any of them are caught in the changes of seasons.

But what about the planet itself? What about Mother Nature?
This is the question that Gaia asks when she arrives to this foreign world. After so much work her son persuaded her to take a long vacation in Equestria, saying that she needed one and assuring her that he would be in charge now, and she must take a break. But what can a several billion-year old alicorn possibly do to pass her time in this land?

Twilight decides it's time Rarity starts learning how to teleport. That means, tutoring classes. Rarity is slightly less than pleased, especially after seeing what most of said classes appear to be about.

Written on the context of Monochromatic's "The Enchanted Library," around the start of the second arc. But don't worry, it doesn't contain any spoilers past the basics of the AU.

It came without ceremony and without warning. A huge monolith of mechanics, steam, and smoke that was unlike anything Equestria had ever seen before. It's origins are a mystery. One that demands to be solved.

Luna’s return from banishment has been a challenging learning process. But as the years pass and Luna becomes more aware of Equestria’s current technological state, she has a critical question for her sister.

Why?

After the whole strawberry incident, Anon decided to switch to mangoes for a while.

Will this be any better?

Written for the One Thousand Word contest by Bicyclette

How one brave little bat pony managed to beat the odds, sneak past the royal guard into Celestia's mango grove and then out run her pursuers to safety. All for the greatest tasting mango she's ever had.

After pranking her commanding officer one too many times. Night Wing decides to get back at Echo with the one thing that will sure cause chaos: The Laser Pointer!

He's going to have so much fun with that thing.

It's gonna suck for the maid ponies that will have to clean up all that mess afterwards.

Edit: Sweet! This made it to the Popular Stories section (10-31-2016)

Finally! I do a story that's not human-to-pony.

1. Why am I doing this? Well, it's because I have an Echo page and very randomly throughout the last three to five months, I've been posting random pranking moments between myself (Since I run the Echo page) and Night Wing or just having fun with him which is Here , Here , Here , Here , Here , And Here

But, it was this post that gave me the idea of trying my luck at doing this laser pointer story with Night Wing getting back at Echo with said item with the post being this one.

Also, Night Wing is a commanding officer bat guard that I briefly mentioned in First Night on the Job

I also know there are other laser pointer stories which I've read and loved which are these The Laser Pointer and Princess Celestia and the Laser Pointer

2. I'm super happy that I was able to get a fan that likes my Echo page to help edit the story for me because he added stuff that I never thought I would have added.

-

3. What's my expectations? For a story that's not human-to-pony. I just hope that people can just love this silly/random story. If this somehow got 50 likes then I would call that an accomplishment since I'm not asking for much.

I'm just curious if anypony that normally be on the bat pony thread, Echo fans or maybe Zee66 read this, would they like it? Only time will tell... I'm pretty sure I got Echo's character down well enough I think.

4. I guess to end this. If you happened to see any errors that my editor missed then just let me know and I'll go to fix it.

Hopefully you'll enjoy this.
