Caramel has worked temp jobs in Ponyville since he moved there, but one day a letter arrives, informing him of a financial windfall large enough for him to open a bakery of his very own! His bad luck finally seemed to be on its way out when a friendly visit from the town apple suppliers turned into a demonstration of how seriously they take the little red fruits in this town. Little does he realize that during his struggle, he'll uncover a devious plot that threatens all of Equestria, starting with Ponyville.

Hey you.

Yeah, you.

C'mere, sugarcube.

Lemme tell ya a story.

Rainbow Dash isn't bitter about the whole Mare-Do-Well incident. Or at least that's what she tells herself. Either way, she's not going to miss this chance for some harmless revenge pranks, and so she constructs a plan to prank all of her best friends, starting with Twilight Sparkle. All Dash needs is a quill and some paper.

Thanks to the amazing DShou for the cover image.

NEW PRINCESS ATTACKS GRIFFONSTAN IMPORTS

The Equestria Daily can exclusively report that newly crowned Princess Twilight Sparkle became embroiled in an argument with the Griffonstani trade minister about the inferior quality of griffon quills, alleging that "they just don't hold ink as well as pegasus quills". Import markets tumbled overnight, threatening the solvency of numerous Equestrian quill merchants. Princess Sparkle could not be reached for comment.

(When you're done, bookplayer has a fun "Let's Read" commentary version!)
(Also, GhostOfHeraclitus wrote a prequel from the perspective of Dr. Spinning Top!)

When Applejack and Ditzy Doo are caught together in the kitchen, what will Granny Smith say? Probably not what you think.

A meta-fictional response to a persistent trend I keep seeing in certain fics.

Twilight hasn't emerged from her library in over two weeks, and Applejack has had enough. The only thing stopping her from bucking the door down is Rarity - the two friends once again at the opposite ends of an argument.

When events quickly change and escalate beyond all expectations however, and Applejack finds herself needing the others more than ever, it is Rarity who steps up to the the vast chasm that comes between them and Rarity who reaches for the other side.

But time is unkind, and Applejack does not have forever. The events that unfold around her will force her to the very edge, but when she falls into the unknown, who will be there to catch her? Will Rarity and the others reach her in time, or will she be forced to bet everything on an even greater risk just to survive?

Just the life and times of Applejack and Rarity.

((Yeah, I write alot of Raijack fics so if you don't like Rarijack anything... don't read my Rarijack fics XD))

I don’t question the “life” bar floating over my head, or my “EXP” gauge, or the little phantasmal boxes that appear whenever I look at an “equippable” object that show its “statistics.” It’s normal for small messages to appear in the sky every now and then, such as [System update in 2 hours.] My kind worships the Developers, higher beings that direct, create, and control everything we see. It’s all normal. This is how things have always been, since I was born. My father, my grandfather, my ancestors have all accepted and coped with these elements.

So why does everything feel so... fake?

My name is Twilight_Sparkle, and I know there’s something wrong here.

This story is a sequel to Steel Soul

Sweetie Belle has discovered a secret. She's spent a few months keeping it to herself, but the nightmares she's had have convinced her it might be time to reveal it.

Sequel to Steel Soul.

Memories are the soul of the self; it defines the past, shapes the present, and guides the future.

A year has passed since the events of What Would Daring Do. The memories of their struggles have bonded Applejack and Rainbow Dash into a union of love. But when those memories are lost, can Applejack find the strength and resolve to save the pony she loves? A broken mind is a catastrophe; a broken heart, tragedy.
