The first time we danced, she broke my jaw in three places.

The life of a disposable minion in the service to the Dread Ahuizotl is filled with acts of senseless violence and hardship, normally ending in a hospital or unmarked grave, but for Disposable Minion #3, the job just got more interesting.

He fell in love.

And love hurts.

This story is a sequel to A Nice Cup of Tea

Why would a pony like Derpy Hooves -- good-natured, well meaning, and simple in her ways -- ever dislike such a wonderful season as Hearth's Warming? She has her reasons, and she makes it a point not to think about them. Still, the season gets her down, and the last thing she needs at this time of year is a special delivery for none other than Queen Chrysalis, herself. It might not be the greatest day of her life, but this delivery still might mean more to the mare they all know as "Derpy" than anypony could have imagined. It is a difficult thing to come face-to-face with a creature who truly understands -- and consumes -- hearts, especially at a time of year when one's heart is doing its best to stave off memories of a time not so very long ago.

This is NOT "A Christmas Carol" with Derpy Hooves as Ebenezer Scrooge. That would be inane (and maybe pretty awesome, but still inane.) Instead, it's an examination of love and the nature of the heart, and a look at one of the reasons why some of us just can't help feeling a little out of sorts at a time of year that is supposed to be marked by joy. There are a few laughs here and there, and there might -- just maybe -- be a happy ending. Still, don't come looking for a warm fuzzies dispenser. You won't get it.

A Misadventure of Derpy Hooves.

This story was written before the Flight To The Finish episode. Any resemblance, even the smallest ones, is pure coincidence.

Everypony knows me as the pony who loves nature. The pony who cares for animals. Some of them even call me a tree-hugger. Let me tell you about this tree over here. It's very special to me...

Author's Note: A collaboration between myself and the lovely MidnightDancer. Be sure to check her out, because she's totally amazing, and I couldn't have done this without her help!

This story is a sequel to Being Neighborly

Sheriff May Berry must keep the peace at a Eutaw County Board of Supervisors meeting. The good citizens of Eutaw need to remove a little potty humor from their landscape. Politics as usually, and other things going terribly wrong, in Equestria's wild west.

Twilight is outraged by the fact Rainbow Dash has begun shipping Daring Do and Ahuizotl.

Nightmare Night has come once again, and Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo are intent on having some fun. Fortunately for them, something they hear in class earlier that day unexpectedly gives them the means for just that.

Okay, maybe a little bit more than they bargained for.

Berry Punch has been feeling quite lonely these past several weeks, so she goes to one of the local bars in search of somepony to have spend the night with.

The life of a Princess of Equestria is always a stressful one, whether you are an experienced one or not. Sometimes you need to get away from it all. That is exactly what Twilight and Cadence thought when they decided to take a trip to the Hoofwian Islands just the two of them. The vacation is suppose to be about having fun, but deep down one of them wants a bit more than that. Their only concern, though, is how the other will react to this.

Some queens come to power through birthright, some through charisma, and some through strength and force.
But there are some queens who rise to power through cunning and treachery...and Chrysalis of the Changelings is perhaps the greatest of them all.
Long live the queen!

Special thanks to TheOneBehindYou and my best friend Lycan for giving me feedback, support, encouragement, and proofreading this conceptual look into how Chrysalis became the Queen of the Changelings.
