The CMCs find an Instascam account impersonating them.

A little story I used to put my headcanon about how time works between the main series and the Equestria Girls sub-series. It's a discussion of why Sunset is so young despite being older than Princess Twilight, as well as why timeliness don't always match up between the two.

I don't trust her. What's she up to behind those big eyes and bouncy curls?

Smolder doesn't trust Cozy Glow, and thinks there's more to her than meets the eye! However, the other students are thinking the same thing as well! They decide to investigate, but what they may see may not confirm their suspicions! Smolder isn't sure about Starlight's sudden departure, and her accusations may not be as accurate as they thought.

Yeah, Smolder's got trust issues!

This story is a jab at Hasbro for turning Cozy into stone, and not sparing her a chance at reformation. Don't hate me. This is MY opinion!

(AAA! Thank you so much for the feature!!!)

Learning of an opportunity to take over Ponyville once again, Queen Chrysalis launches an ambitious attempt to infiltrate it - her plan involving a disguise she hadn't tried before; a young filly.

However, in her haste and excitement, she forgot a crucial detail.

A detail that caught the attention of three caped crusaders.

This is my entry for the recent prompt in Bean's Writing Group! The prompt was "Chrysalis secretly lives as a pony in Equestria", but I kinda voided the bonus prompt.

The very much unauthorized re-write of Jonny Bench's story called The Crippling Secret. I thought it would be fun to re-write it, but Jonny himself hasn't been on since half a year ago, so-

I did some reverse-image-searching, and I think the cover image comes from sjui00. Hopefully they don't mind my use.

Story was released 10/22/22, but I really, really rushed writing it. Usually, my stories take about five drafts before I'm happy with it. This one, I only did two then published it. On 10/24/22, I re-edited the story to flow better.

The worst part of a betrayal is often not the act itself, but everything that lingers after. Trying to piece together the motivations of someone you once trusted, sifting through memories for some sign you might have missed.

Wondering if, somehow, they had a good reason behind it all.

Seeking closure, Twilight tries to find answers in Cozy Glow's abandoned possessions, but the truth she discovers is one that will make her question everything.

Sunset Shimmer is just trying to have a nice dinner with her friends when it is RUINED by an uninvited guest with an affinity for black goo. She knows what it is, she knows who is responsible, and she is very VERY unhappy with him. And she wants to let him know.

Rated T for exactly one instance of harsh profanity.

I did not expect this to get as popular as it did but I am very glad that people enjoyed it. Thank you all so much for getting featured, 100+ likes, and countless additions to favorites lists! 💜

Sunset never backs down from a gaming challenge, but when she finally faces a boss she can't beat, frustration is getting the better of her. On the verge of giving up for the first time ever, her friends show up to see if they can help, but will they be enough or will this be the first boss she's had to accept defeat from?

One second she was about to taste the sweet and delicious victory she's been yearning for since she was imprisoned.

"You're a pony yourself, aren't you? I'd be damned if you were the next one to bring my downfall, pony."

Instead, she's tasting the Castle floor as her mind began to fully understand the situation she was in. All decisive thoughts were thrown out the window. There was only anger and pain.

In order to make sure her class knows a little more about the world, Cheerilee has them exchanging letters with children in other nations. This allows her students to learn about truly foreign concepts, like 'snow day'. And the mere concept of having a random storm grant an unexpected holiday has taught the Crusaders something big: that Equestria is the worst place in the whole world, because the weather schedule means that's never gonna happen.

Surely there has to be a way to get a snow day of their very own. Surely...

...so what's the fastest way to summon a windigo?
