Spike, the lion raised among lambs, is pushed aside for the last time. He bids his home farewell with the heat of his fire to his back, the girls left to worry, wonder, and quarrel. Could it have ended any other way? Should it have?

Not everybody comes home, and those that do can bring back more, or less than they had upon shipping off.

After claiming that Xbox 360 has no game, Spike pisses Twilight Sparkle off more than ever in her life.

What ensues is the worst case of Spike abuse to date, as well as what is now known as the 'Ponyville Massacre.'

After lulling the Equestrians into a false sense of security, Discord has sprung his master plan and is on the verge of bringing the nation to its knees, but one (Macho) man will stand as a glimmering star of hope in the long night. THE BRIGHTEST STAR OF THEM ALL, OOH YEAH! Macho Madness is rolling through Equestria and it can't be stopped, not by you or your army of Hulkamaniacs, because, comparatively speaking, you are like a leaf in the Everfree Forest and I'm-- I mean the Macho Man is the entire forest.

Rated S for Slim Jim.

Business at Carousel Boutique has been picking up ever since the Royal Wedding. While the work has been a godsend, Rarity soon finds herself buried in custom orders, fussy Canterlot ponies, and deadlines she's unsure she can meet.

At the end of her rope, she remembers that time there were simply too many Pinkie Pies, and has an idea.

What could go wrong?

(Story inspired by a comment left by MarineMarksman on another story of mine, Oh, you. Thanks for the inspiration!)

My name is Artemis, I was sworn in as Princess Celestia's personal guard quite some time ago. I've watched her for so many years and silently stood by her side during all the recent ups and downs of her reign. Now I'm going to tell her how I feel. I know it would never work, we're just too different. But sometimes, there are things in a stallion's life he just has to do, and things he has to get off his chest.

What happens tonight will be anypony's guess, but one thing is for certain... it will be a night to remember.

Part one of the "To Love" trilogy. > Part two can be found here<

It was another somewhat normal day in Equestria, everypony had something to do. Then without warning, Steve Irwin appeared.

Crikey!

Steve Irwin was awesome.

The Christian God, that is.

Crossover with Christianity.

After Babs Seed moves in with her cousins and grandmother at Sweet Apple Acres, seven years and twenty-eight seasons of lessons about friendship, love, and the true meaning of family shape her into the mare she ultimately becomes.

What became of Babs Seed's mother and sister? Will the bobtailed foal ever see the ones she left behind again? How will the other Ponyville Cutie Mark Crusaders react to their fourth member earning her cutiemark before the rest? Is family what we are born into, or is it what we choose to create? And, ultimately, can a city-pony truly adapt to country life?

This is the second installment in the Tangled Roots timeline. "Sweet Apple Anthology" is a collection of sequential side-stories spanning across seven years after the end of the first story's final chapter and continuing to its Epilogue.

The story continues in the third installment, Severed Roots.

Rated Teen for some language, violence, and darker elements.
