In the aftermath of her battle against Tirek, Twilight Sparkle is unwell. She wants more. She needs more. And she is afraid of what others might think of her.

But even in the midst of her growing despair that she has betrayed everything she stood for, she learns something about friendship and what it means to be an alicorn.

Twilight tries on her first pair of glasses, and though she enjoys them, something goes wrong. Anypony who merely looks at her faints on the spot, and she must figure out why before the entire city of Canterlot is compromised.

Now with a YouTube reading by Short Stories, and another YouTube reading by ZeusMacD

Rainbow Dash isn't having a good day.
She woke up lost, in a body that clearly isn't hers, no memory of how she got where she is, and she's being chased by creatures from the depths of Tartarus. Super fun.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ruby Rose is having a wonderful day.
Her team has been sent into Forever Fall on their first solo mission, to investigate recent sightings of Grimm. A bit low-key, but Team RWBY has needed the break since the last fight with the White Fang.
She's investigating some tracks when she hears a scream echo through the forest.

What she finds will change their lives forever.

MLP/RWBY Crossver. No Ruby/Dash ships. If you want that, make your own.
Set post Season 2 of MLP, and post Volume 2 of RWBY; the tournament has not happened yet.

If you've never heard of RWBY, go to RoosterTeeth's Youtube playlist right the buck now and watch it. it is in reverse order, unfortunately but deal with it. Watch the four trailers first.

Not quite sure yet how far I'm going to take this, but I'll figure that out as I go along.

A thousand years after the Princesses disappeared from Equestria, Twilight Sparkle meets a lost Cloudsdale scout named Rainbow Dash. Together they look for a way to end the thousand-year night and dispel the darkness that has spread across Equestria.

Contains fairly mild grim-dark. Inspiration taken from the Dark Souls games, but it's not strictly a crossover.
Chapters titled "Arc #: Chapter Name" are part of the main story. Chapters titled "Character: Chapter Name" are one-shots about other characters, set in the same world, and aren't necessary in order to follow the main story.

This story is a sequel to Culling of the Hives

It's been twelve years since Twilight awakened as a changeling. With Phoenix Roost's focus on economic and population growth, the hive has grown strong.

The rest of the changeling hives have been ravaged by war for years with Twilight's brood remaining aloof. Sphinx psyker immigrants have dispersed throughout not only Equestria but as far as the Griffin and Minotaur nations, eager for a new life away from the paranoia of their homeland.

Yet for all of Twilight's desire for leave the rest of the queens to their wars, the Home Guard's proclamation will force Twilight to return to the jungle of her rebirth.

Real cover art pending.

Mort, also known as the Pale Pony (of Death), has been tasked to take time off from his rigorous duties of reaping souls. Seeking guidance, he is directed towards the town of Ponyville, to learn about the magic of friendship from Twilight Sparkle and her friends. All he needs to do is keep his true nature a secret. That shouldn't be too difficult...right?
