A little story written in collaboration with DarknessRising, who is sadly no longer with us. (He went on to do something more fulfilling with his life. Think he became a guitar player in a famous rock band or something.)

It's Pinkie Pie's birthday, and Discord has decided to give her something special.

The entity of chaos decides to give Pinkie Pie his divine powers for one whole day.

Yay for the party pony, but a whole load of NOPE! for the rest of Ponyville.

Let's see how this turns out...

UPDATE - FEATURED! 6th of October, Monday, 2014. Meh, whatever. I prefer the Popular Section.

UPDATE - Featured. 12th of April, Wednesday, 2017. Yeah, yeah, well done me. So who wants to look into my YouTube channel at some point?

Everypony has a dream when they are young. Sometimes, their dreams die out as they grow older. Sometimes their dreams come true, and they live the dream.

But for Spitfire, her dream of being the captain of the Wonderbolts isn't enough.

She dreams of something else. Something more...fulfilling.

Twilight Sparkle is facing a crisis greater than Tirek, the Changelings, and King Sombra combined.

She's read every single book in existence.

So it is that she has nothing new to read.

She does not take it well.

Pre-read by The Albinocorn and MythrilMoth.

Okay, let's get this out of the way. My name is Peek, and I'm a changeling.

So, ponies arent that bad. Who knew? Well, the thing is that I've been tasked with infiltrating Princess Twilight's social circle, and somehow turn the Elements of Harmony against eachother. Should be simple, I mean, I've done things like this a hundred times before.

But, guess what, these ponies are friendly! And I hate to say it, but I think I've taken a liking to these fluffy fleshbags. They're my friends, and I don't want to hurt my friends.

But one thing that's been on my mind lately, I can't keep this up. I can't keep lying to my friends. But how would they react? I mean, they haven't had the best experience with my kind. I can only hope they can be as accepting as they are with actual ponies. But on the other hoof, if I don't follow through on the mission, I'll be kicked out of the hive. I'll be all alone.

I guess I'll have to choose...

After having a falling out with Discord about a misunderstanding, the draconequus sparks the Mane Six's interest in his past with Princess Celestia. What really happened all those years ago? Well, after visiting the Princess, she tells them that there IS more to the past than just Discord trying to take over. There was something that happened much sooner than that. Something that the Six don't expect.

Celestia and Discord were best friends.

The Six sit back as Celestia unravels the untold story of how she and Discord met, their budding friendship, and how it all came to the moment of Discord's takeover.

[1 out of 2 Christmas Specials, 2016]

Almost two weeks before Hearth's Warming Eve, Twilight decides to try a little experiment.
Unfortunately for Twilight, however, her hypothesis failed to take account of a Hearth's Warming tradition she never knew about: and just what a pony in love is willing to do to get themselves noticed.

The Mane 6 get a surprise visitor on Hearth's Warming Eve. And there's presents! And look out for a very special surprise guest in the story!

This story is a sequel to A Prose By Any Other Name

One week after his return, Opacare Prose must delve into the streets of Manehattan to stop the corruption that has been brewing within its steel skyscrapers. It seems like an easy job; stop Mayor Grifford Finch, reveal his corrupted ways, and help Manehattan return to its former glory.

But all is not as it seems. Behind Prose's one-stallion war against his former friend, is a shadow of an organization bent on one thing, and one thing only: the complete annihilation of the author and the mayor. As the two ex-friends exchange words and blows, culminating in an explosive confrontation, that organization from behind the scenes makes it move gradually, determined to take Manehattan over without either noticing.

If Opacare Prose has any hope of saving his city, then he must accept the assistance of the mares from Ponyville, as well as forge unlikely alliances with any pony willing to side with him. His goal of stopping Grifford Finch will eventually overlap to other goals, ones that, he will discover, are far more important.

He can't save everything, though... as his war continues, casualties will rise, and somepony important to him could be forever lost...

This story is complete! Sequel is posted!

Opacare Prose had it all. He was an accomplished writer, noted storyteller, and acclaimed novelist. He had fame and fortune at his beck and call, and it seemed that no other stallion was so well off.

So when he mysteriously vanishes off the face of Equestria with no warning, it comes as a shock for the nation. His disappearance sparks an uproar of panic and confusion. Ponies and cities alike are put on the watch, looking for him endlessly...

As this is going on, an enigmatic, new pony suddenly arrives in Ponyville. His clothing and belongings look like they've been in several fights, and he looks ready to pass out. However, when ponies question where he came from, he refuses to answer. It seems he has a secret, a dark one, eliciting suspicion against him. He secludes himself at the edge of town, seemingly hiding away from civilization...

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are intrigued, and set off to somehow break through that stallion's cold exterior. Yet, they will inadvertently embark on their own, grand tale, filled with mystery, intrigue, and a troubled past. Will they manage to make it through and understand just who this mysterious stallion is; and what he is hiding?

When Twilight Sparkle slipped beneath the covers last night, everything had been fine. She had friends whom she loved, a teacher she adored, and a bright future ahead of her. But when she woke up, her blankets and quilts had been replaced by hospital gowns and padded restraints.

Everything is wrong and nothing makes sense; even her friends have changed. The doctors keep telling her that she is sick, that none of it was real and that it was all in her head. Yet she remembers a life far beyond the hospital walls. She couldn't have made it all up on her own. They must be lying… right?
