Flat teeth or fangs? Velvety smooth coat or firm carapace? Mane or headfin?

Thorax frets over which face he wishes to show the crystal ponies his age. Fortunately, there's somepony willing to offer a word or two of comfort and support, as well as teach him a life lesson that will stick with him forever.

As the clouds of war loom on the horizon, Daring Do embarks on a desperate mission to retrieve the Crown of the Changelings. An ancient artifact used by the queens of old to establish absolute dominion over their subjects, the plucky pegasus cannot stand to see it fall into Chrysalis' hooves. And considering the queen's recent warmongering maneuvers, the safety of Equestria could very well depend on her mission...

This is a story set in the universe of Equestria at War, after the changeling conquest of Olenia and before the attack on Equestria. It was written for the Equestria at War writing contest.

A new age has dawned in Equestria. An age of exploration beyond the skies. Twilight and her friends have signed up for this voyage. Even though they must leave Equestria, they have high hopes and dreams for it. But what happens when those dreams come crashing down?

Three hundred years after Luna's banishment, Equestria is at a shaky peace, its borders protected by the Equestrian Armed Forces from several hostile races, from raiding Diamond Dogs to the increasingly aggressive Gryphons. Incidents are many, and tensions rise as the newly unified Gryphon Empire sets its sights on the lands and riches of its pony neighbors.

In this troubled time, a young pegasus orphan named Firefly comes of age. A born warrior, her name will one day be known as not just the founder of the Wonderbolts, but as one of Equestria's greatest heroes...

Set in the same universe as the Turnabout Storm novelization but taking place seven hundred years before, this is the story of Rainbow Dash's ancestor, the origin of the Wonderbolts, and the coming of the Great Pony/Gryphon War. Also referenced by multiple stories in the Gentlemanverse.

Everypony knows that the future is predestined; the very existence of cutie marks proves it. Still, Minuette isn't so sure that she has to make the same mistakes twice.

Two ponies look to the future, and all the while one looks back to the present.

This story is a sequel to The Princess And The Dragon

It has been a week since The Storm King's defeat, but Spike has been acting very quiet and won't open up to Twilight or Starlight. But Twilight calls upon Princess Luna, who also happens to be Spike's dragon sitter to find out what's going on.

This has no connection to a previous story I co-wrote with SuperPinkBrony12 Closure (Which I do love), but I wanted to see what things would be like if it were in my head canon of another story we both wrote, The Princess And The Dragon , where Luna becomes Spike's dragon sitter.

SuperPinkBrony12 also served as an editor and proofreader here! Check out his stuff!

(Takes place immediately after "Luna Eclipsed", colab with yodajax10.) Another Nightmare Night has come and gone, and now Ponyville begins the process of cleaning up after it.

Spike offers to help out, but Twilight reassures him that they can handle things on their own. So, reluctantly, the baby dragon decides to spend a little time with Princess Luna, who has just come out of her shell.

But what can the two talk about? Quite a lot, actually. And both will come to realize, they have something in common.

(Featured on 9/09/2016)

The surly but brilliant police inspector known as "The Lens" has spent her entire career putting thieves and burglars behind bars... but only one of them was ever skilled enough to evade her. "The Magpie" is a masked pony responsible some of the most daring and spectacular thefts in Equestrian history, and despite his fame nopony knows who he is or what he wants.

After seven years of pursuit, Inspector Spectacles is determined to stop his most brazen heist yet and put him in prison one and for all... but nothing is ever so simple. Even in defeat, the charming and enigmatic pony has the city of Canterlot in an uproar. Although the Inspector knows everything about his methods, she must now unravel the truth about his personal motives—and in so doing, face a fearful moral quandary.

The story continues in The Days of the Prophets.

A hundred years has passed since the Catastrophe, which meant the end the alicorns’ era. Now their graves make for the seat of a new power: the Parliament of Equestria, where the “three stand as one, now as before and forever”. The motto of the Parliament, inscribed in stone for all to see.

Just wipe away the blood first.

This story is a sequel to Equine, All Too Equine

In the city which has not seen an alicorn for a hundred years, a rumour spreads.

"Fifty bits and I'll get ya a bone of one. No? Okay, call it forty and I'll throw a free trinket on top."

The price varies along with the body part in question, but not enough so to make a bucketload of difference. However, there's also another rumour in the air. There's no words for it; no price; no haggling.

All there is to it is the burnt smell of a martyr's flesh.
