How do you improve on perfection, once perfection has become outlawed?
Pinkie hopes to find out, with the help of Pinkie and several (mostly) willing volunteers.
After all, nothing bad ever came from mixing high-sugar coffee drinks and highly experimental magic, right?

Written for the Quills & Sofa's "Expanded Universe 2" contest as a sequel to Grand_Moff_Pony's The Amazing Arcane Alicorn Frappe
Reading the prequel is not required, but will make certain aspects of this story clearer.

This story is a sequel to Professional Fitting

Rarity has a plan.

She can't quite bring herself to say what it is-- she's nervous, perhaps even a little scared. Saying it would make it very real, and she can't quite handle it being so real just yet.

Whether or not she says it, though, one thing is for sure: Twilight will find a way to screw it all up.

An entry in the Quills and Sofas Expanded Universe contest. This fanfiction was written and posted with permission as an expansion of AFanaticRabbit's fic Professional Fitting. It is absolutely required reading! Don't try to read this fic without it!

Normally, I try to link everyone who read and commented during the contest, but that was a whopping 22 people this time around! Instead, I'll just send out a heartfelt thank you to all the folks at Q&S, with a special shoutout to Seer for organizing this behemoth of an event. Check out the other entries here!

This story is the sequel to It's Good to Meet Bad, by the talented Atom Smash.

Several months ago, Tender Taps blew into Manehatten and auditioned for his first performance. Opening night he was terrified, until he met a tough-talking hairdresser who helped give him the confidence to step out onto the stage.

She also gave him the confidence to ask her out.

Time has passed, and now he's ready to audition for another, very different kind of show.

Written for Quills & Sofa's EU2 contest, where participants wrote sequels for another author's story. While reading the original wouldn't be necessary to enjoy this one, I highly recommend it.

Prereading provided by all the participants in the contest, including over twenty other very talented authors.

On the day a comet passes overhead, Princess Twilight Sparkle decides to keep the sky dark, allowing all of Equestria to enjoy the view.

It's weird-- but a good weird! Definitely good.

Some other things are weird, too. But they might also be a good weird.

Check out the sequel, Light Show!

First place in a Quills and Sofas speedwriting contest with the theme "heartwarming" and the prompt "light up the sky". Originally written in 75 minutes, this version has seen some editing and adjustment. Special thanks to Red Parade, Emotion Nexus, and Aurora Dawn for pre-reading during the contest!

This story currently stands alone, but I may add more stories about what happened on Comet Day at a later date!

Luna goes in search of what she wants. Instead, she finds what she needs.

Fourth place in the 60th Quills & Sofa's Speedwriting contest, 'Plain Jane'. The prompt was 'Second Glances'.

We, the ponies of New Canterlot, do hereby dissolve the position of Monarch of Equestria, stripping it of all rights and privileges, effective immediately.

Second place in the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Event 100 contest. The prompt was "A Worthy End."

Cover art by the delightful Snow Quill.

In an abandoned castle deep within the Everfree forest, the battle of Everlasting Night is almost to a close. Nightmare Moon is weakened and nearly defeated and Twilight has awakened the five Elements that her friends embody.

But there's just one problem. She can't find the sixth!

In a last-ditch effort, Twilight casts a powerful and ancient spell (from a library she technically wasn't allowed in) to summon the final Element from the next universe over. (They won't miss it, right?)

Unfortunately, her spell works a little too well and now she's swimming in Elements. Can she find the true Element of Harmony, or will she go mad trying to sift through so many that are just slightly 'not right'?

After taking the throne, Twilight had a lot of things to do - a transition that had never happened before was bound to be fraught with a thousand unexpected complications.

As part of the transition, Twilight finds herself going through Princess Celestia's old personal papers, finding secret after clue after instruction long forgotten about. And among those papers, Twilight finds a letter.

A letter addressed to My Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle.

A letter never sent.

Special thanks to RanOutOfIdeas and SymphonicSync for proofreading!

Lightning Dust will never be a Wonderbolt. When she left the Academy, she swore she'd never look back. When the Washouts disbanded, she swore she'd forget about them.

Yet after all these years, against all odds, she finds herself here. At a Wonderbolts show. Just on the wrong side of the glass.

Entry into a Sofa and Quills Speedwriting contest, where it placed first! Written in the span of half an hour (time limit was an hour but I had to go early) with the prompts 'candy' and 'bittersweet.'

This story is a sequel to The Enchanted Kingdom

Hello!

I am completely restarting this story as an entirely new story to go live sometime soon. Go here for more info!

Once upon a time, there was a mare who did not believe in fairytales, and a very different mare who did not believe in herself. Their lives intertwined, weaving together a fairytale like no other, filled with chaos and love, friends and enemies, adventures and tragedies. A fairytale they felt would last forever. But it couldn't.

Be it with a bang or with a whisper, everything eventually must come to an end, whether we like it or not—their story is no different.

With nothing left to lose and everything to gain, all Rarity and Twilight can do is make sure it's an ending worth telling.

Final story in The Enchanted Trilogy.

I have moved on from Fimfiction but The Enchanted Carousel is still actively being written and published over on my personal website TALES FROM HOLLOW SHADES!
