Applejack finds out the hard way that she is one of the few sane ponies in Ponyville. Or perhaps Equestria overall. Because of this, Princess Luna often comes to visit to discuss her policy plans with the farm pony. Hi-jinks ensue.

Diamond dogs don't concern themselves with the affairs of the surface and, if they had their way, wouldn't go topside at all. Unfortunately, there's things of value up there, and so they regularly send scouts, with scout duty the punishment for disruptive dogs to remind them why they stay beneath the earth.

Precious has been exiled to scout duty, but she doesn't mind that at all. The surface world can be downright beautiful, and when she's up here she doesn't have to deal with Rover's ego. She's very content to spend her days beneath the sun, watching for any ponies that become separated from the herd.

Until she meets a pony. One who talks to her. And she figures she can afford to let one pony go. No one will ever know.

She should have realized that one pony never stays just one pony.

You’ve seen Humans in Equestria… but have you seen them done quick? Will PonyRunner420 crumble under the pressure of one frame tricks, uninvited couch commentators, and suspiciously self-aware NPCs, or will he successfully kill Celestia in record time?

A short story about the magic of speedrunning, and it’s power to bring people across the world (and across dimensions) together with the common goal of raising money for charity, and just killing Celestia really fast.

While hanging out at Twilight's castle the subject of height comes up, Spike says that he always thought the Mane Six were the exact same height, aside from Twilight. However, they all find this absolutely ridiculous. There's obviously a difference! (This is not a sequel, but it does contain reference to my story "That's not my name")

I was just hoping to get this last job done, always getting sent to this dimension or that, always doing the interests of others. Unfortunately, everyone's luck eventually runs out, and it looks like mine has ran out as well. Now somehow I got stuck in this place, in a foreign body, and things just keeps getting worse for me. What did I do to deserve this?

Twilight Sparkle learns that the trust and goodwill of the Princess isn't always a good thing as she's given the trust of an important assignment. When that assignment turns out to be long-term, how will she handle taking care of a filly of her own? How will she handle this strange new filly, who proves to be much more than she appears. As a matter of fact, she seems to be from an entirely separate universe.

Meanwhile, Second Chance has kept only enough of her memories to know that she isn't what she should be. The wonderful world of Equestria has its own dangers, and she seems to have a knack for attracting trouble. The more of her memories return, the more she wishes she could just forget. But you can't forget when all of Equestria depends on you remembering.

Only one thing's for sure: The longer Twilight keeps this strange filly in her care, the stranger her own life will become, and things she thought she knew about Equestria will unravel before her eyes. Strange ancient devices, an eccentric mint unicorn and her so-called "Equestrian Precursor Society" are only the beginning for Twilight Sparkle as she begins a journey of her own. She too may wish she could simply forget. Unfortunately, it's too late for either of them.

Rainbow Dash is widely known for her propensity for pranks. While seeing an unsuspecting Anonymous the human in the outskirts of Ponyville, Rainbow decides to hit him with classic from her arsenal, the ol' lightning stomp prank. It's simply really, she's played it on tons of ponies before.

Rainbow didn't think Anon would get hurt. She didn't think he'd become paralyzed. It was supposed to be a harmless prank!

Time is running out for this planet and every living thing on it. The eons quickly turned into millenniums, then centuries, to decades, years, months, weeks, then days, and final hours. Equus does not have long until it is decimated.

How will Twilight react to this catastrophe? A world doomed to a fiery demise. Fate has set a path to end all life on this planet, but maybe . . . just maybe . . . it doesn't have to be the end at all. Although, that is for you to decide.
