She was once a great mare, the pride of Equestria's rulers.

The sole wielder of the element of magic...

Now  but a shell of her former self after just one tragic night...  and the long months that followed.

Because what would it be like to have your closest friend violently taken away from you?

Even after a full year with no sign of him, would it ever seem possible that he would ever be seen again, or that he was even alive?

Twilight Sparkle, with the help of her friends, attempts to rebuild her life from the ground up after a full year of dwelling in the past, and trying to find any trace of her former assistant.

Spike's gone, but does Twilight have what it takes to bring herself back from the same void?

Imprisoned in the tunnels beneath Canterlot, she withers away in hunger and despair.  In the castle above, curiosity leads him to a door that he is forbidden to open.  When they finally meet, it is just the opportunity she has waited for.  Mislead by a child's trusting innocence, Spike unknowingly stumbles into the clutches of Equestria's greatest foe.  And once you embrace the darkness, the darkness never lets you go...

The Helicoprion, a long-lived genus of shark-like cartilaginous fish that went extinct millions of years ago. This predator certainly was a strange one, seeing how its lower jaw was basically a mix of a fruit roll-up and chainsaw. I make a living studying fossils, and this guy certainly takes the cake for the number one in the weird factor. So imagine my surprise when I inexplicably turn up in Equestria of all places. As a Helicoprion. Guess it's just one of those days.

You can thank Csquared08 for the idea for this story. And I will get that seal of approval, one way or the other.

And here's a dramatic reading made by these two hilarious dudes, RazortheAwesome and DaedaltheusXIV.

After becoming an alicorn princess, Twilight receives a new pair of wings. Celestia and Luna comfort her in their own way before her coronation. What they should've done was teach her how to hide her arousal.

This story was written in the midst of the "alicorn Twilight" hysteria which permeated the brony fandom in the weeks leading up to the season three finale.

Discord has been preparing to make Fluttershy a special gift for several weeks, but when it comes time to present it, is it going to be what he hoped? Not shipping.

Based off "Broken Spirit" and not "Keep Calm And Flutter On" (as amazing as that episode was)

A role play with my friend Miccha.

Princess Celestia is high and mighty in a lot of ways, motherly and mentor-like in more.  But her proteges have almost always been unicorns, with one or two pegasi, and not one earth pony in all of her over 1000 years of life. When Applejack, staying true to her Element of Honesty, even with the Princess, bluntly states that Princess Celestia understands little of what it's like to be an earth pony, the princess realizes the flaw in her understanding of her subjects. Turning to a newly reformed old friend, Celestia begs to be an earth pony for a day. What happens, nopony could have guessed.
