Trixie and Spike get stuck in an old well. 'Nuff said.

Commission for Swashbucklist, Spike's number one fan.

Lost, starving, and hunted by the law, a lonely changeling finds a traveling entertainer who he plans on using to restore his energy by extracting as much love out of her as possible.

Too bad his target turns out to be Trixie.

After a brief violent encounter and some mutual blackmail, the two of them decide to perform together in front of the town to raise enough bits and love for them each to go their separate ways.

It works out better than they expected.

Due to a mix-up in the pantry, the jasmine tea that Princess Celestia orders for consumption with her breakfast turns out to be made out of coca leaf, instead.

A period of overwhelming bureaucratic efficiency, aggressive platonic affection, and mild insanity follows.

An entry for the April 2015 write-off event, with the prompt “Great Expectations.”

On a rainy day, Vinyl Scratch meets Fleetfoot in a bar. Together, they talk a bit while drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes. Nothing else happens.

Celestia has long been a master of the ancient art of making the perfect cup of tea. Luna, on the other hoof, follows the dark heresy of coffee. Caught between them is the newly-minted princess, Twilight Sparkle, who for some reason can't make a drinkable cup of tea no matter how hard she tries. Will Celestia be able to correct her errors and show her the way into the enlightenment of the true beverage, or will Luna win her over to the dark side at last?

In this one-shot idea, Fluttershy asks her friend Discord if he would be interested in taking up the job as a teacher at the new School of Friendship. Discord agrees to teach them something if he were given a chance to test-drive it by having a few students to see if he would take up the job. What follows is a lesson on the meditations of Reniegh Haycartes.

A special thank you to DuskHeart13, The Hat Man and SashimiPony for taking the time of proofreading this.

Note: this and its sequels were written before "Matter of Principles."

Ocellus should have expected this question to come up someday. She really should have...

Just a silly little thing I thought of and had to write down.

Twilight is showing Celestia her new invention – an advanced lie detector. Without her knowledge, Luna and James asked her friends to join the presentation. But that shouldn't be a problem. After all, the mane six has nothing to hide! … right?
