It started when ponies started going missing. It was small towns and villages that reported them first.

After an attack on Manehattan of seemingly unknown origins, The Regal Sisters begin talks of reviving an ancient order meant to defend Equestria and the rest of the known world from threats deemed 'other worldly'.

Much to her dismay, Twilight is chosen to lead Equestria's first—and last—line of defense.

I figured I could put my ongoing misadventures in X-COM and turn them into a fic of some kind.

Kinda toyed with this idea for a bit until I was completely comfortable with it. Hope you like it! Please leave any feedback in the comments!

Derpy Hooves has always been, well, Derpy. But what if one day, that wasn't the case? Twilight's been experimenting with a new type of spell that she thinks can endow a pony with the entire wealth of knowledge collected in her library and she tries to use it on herself... but it misfires and instead the spell collides with an innocent muffin. But who on Equestria would eat a glowing, obviously jinxed muffin?

When Gilda returns to Ponyville, one thing leads to another and winds up transforms the young griffon into somepony completely different, and I'm not talking about her mind!

this is my first fic, plz tell me if you enjoy

Stuff I've written for Thirty-Minute Pony Stories. I've been aiming for "short and sweet" with these, since I'm a glacially slow writer who can literally spend hours laboring on a single paragraph. I'm hoping that forcing myself to follow prompts with time limits will help me improve my speed. If nothing else, I'm enjoying actually writing again.

Welcome everybody, my name's Markiplier and this is a short story about one of the worst days of my life. I had to spend twenty-four hours in a world of multicolored ponies and try to survive this chaotic world within the allotted time. Fans, they are many, they are awesome, but sometimes... they're not from our lovely little rock called,"Earth."

I hope you'll enjoy this, but should you find something unsatisfactory about it, well... there's a lot more interesting stories you could be reading. Have a good one.

Keep it cool, Condemned.

Applebloom and Applejack were not only good sisters but were best friends. They are very nearly inseperable and do almost everything together. But when Something happens to Applejack... something terrible; how does Applebloom cope?

This story was read on youtube: "I Love You Applejack"
(Author's Notes: This was just a little sideproject that I decided to do, out of complete boredom. If it's not too much trouble, could you leave a comment below, telling me how you felt about this? Thanks!)

Princess Luna has returned. To many, this is seen as a joyous occasion, but for the Princess of the Night, her reappearance brings only heartbreak. The world Luna once knew is but a thing of the past, lost within the dusty corridors of her mind, while memories of her loved ones haunt her nightmares.

Unbeknownst to Celestia, Luna was with a foal when she was banished, forced to give birth in her lunar exile. Now, centuries later, she has come back, broken and somber, to re-take her rightful position as co-ruler of Equestria.

Her hopes to connect with her subjects fading, Luna finds a growing jealousy festering within herself as she fails to accept the past and make amends with her sister.

No matter the case, a goddess must never show her sorrow.

"Chaos always finds a way through order and unity."
