Honey Sweet hasn't seen Lemony Lime in 5 years. They were best friends. They finally bump into each other in Manehattan. How will they handle this?

Princess Twilight Sparkle travels to an abandoned ancient castle along with the Royal Sisters in order to investigate reports of inexplicable incidents that have been taking place there, suspected to be the work of bitter spirits. However, she has no books, or almost any source of information to provide her with leads.

Almost, except for a pure white teapot.

2023 edit: I started this story 8 years ago. I'm continuing it on a whim. My writing style has changed since, but most likely I won't be redoing/tweaking/editing the original 5 chapters. Hope you enjoy anyways!

Part of a series of companion fics to each of the "Fiendship is Magic" comics.
Fiendship is Magic #1 Fanfic (Sombra) : Sombra Omega
Fiendship is Magic #2 Fanfic (Tirek) : Madness for Power
Fiendship is Magic #3 Fanfic (Sirens) : Music Wars
Fiendship is Magic #5 Fanfic (Chrysalis) : The Need for Change

Nightmare Moon may be reveling in her triumph over the Nyx and her newfound influence over ponies' dreams, but she is far from completing her goal of spreading eternal nightmares to all of Equestria, and far from completing her banishment of a thousand years upon the moon. Still, the Nyx resist her in their own ways for now...and back on earth, Celestia still has hope for the safe return one day of her little sister.

And, meanwhile, Nightmare Moon experiences her own bouts of distress. Sometimes strange 'nightmares' plague her--nightmares of love and redemption and the pony princess who she used to be. They don't come often, but whenever they do a strange confusion overtakes her. Slowly the years pass, and her confusion grows...until the thousandth year when, signaled by the bright light of her banishment's final full moon, everything the princess of the night ever was is finally set free to return to Equestria again.

"Now a long, long time ago, I gave in to the darkness so, I could have all the power, pitch black for every hour. And though she tried to stop me, I'll rise again, if slowly. For a thousand years I will prepare, this is only the beginning of the nightmare."

Not being dead, isn't being alive.

Sometimes we just need a little bit of imagination to realize that. Life is a very abstract concept, as so death.

Disaster has befallen Equus: Mysterious storms that have begun to drain the land of magic have appeared, and there is no end or solution in sight. Much of Equestria's population — those that could, at least — has retreated to the lands surrounding Canterlot, where a great magical barrier keeps them safe, if only barely. Ponies, griffons, and even changelings do what they can to eke out an existence when even the Princesses seem incapable of saving them.

Using the last of his rapidly diminishing magic, Discord creates dozens of small starships, and a small troop of changelings volunteers rise to the reaches of space in the hope that there may yet be help out there, even if there is none at home.

One of them, Flick, lands on a distant planet and pleads the case of Equus to the inhabitants.

She is the light in the darkness. The giver to the poor. The strength to the weak.

She is Scootaloo, the orphan that Ponyville deserves.

And no swarm of evil will ever stop her from doing her duty.

Despite similarities, this story is not related to The Magic of Orphan Cookies.

It is the night after Nightmare Moon's banishment by Princess Celestia. While still dealing with her grief at the loss of her sister and closest friend, she must also deal with running her kingdom and keeping the public from fearing her corrupted sister. One-shot for now, may update someday.

My entry to the April Lunaverse writing challenge.

Cheerilee has lived the life of a schoolteacher with a smile and devotion that is unparalleled to any other pony in Equestria and yet, her career has left her single and lonely.

However, a simple and unexpected reunion with a student she almost forgot about may perhaps change that.

((Characters Aged Up. Cheerilee x Silver Spoon.))

((I do not own that picture. This dude does: here! Praise that person!))

The Nexus is a powerful multi-dimensional machine that rips heroes and villains from their homeworlds and sets them against each other on battlefields in far off destinations (for reasons that no one can explain)! Under normal circumstances, it just takes characters from the worlds of Blizzard Entertainment (Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo). But in celebration of the new season of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and the announced release date of Heroes of the Storm (tm), the Nexus has sent some of Blizzard's greatest champions to battle the holders of the Elements of Harmony in Equestria!

Now, with Princess Twilight trapped inside their team's Core, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity must take their team of 5 to the lanes to battle in DotA-style to save their friend, and their base, in Ponies of the Storm!!!!

(I recommend changing your chapter reading format to have a dark background to read this. You'll see why.)

*IMPORTANT*
Time to get real for a second. I'm not going to finish this story. There are two main reasons.
1. Activision's influence over Blizzard has soiled a once beloved company. Their premature halting of development on Heroes of the Storm showed their love, not for creation and entertainment, but for profit. The same with the mishandling and understaffing of Warcraft 3 Reforged. A company exists to make profit, I understand that. However, after things like the Diablo Immortal incident and the Blitzchung fiasco, I can see they no longer aim to please fans and make money at the same time.
2. More importantly, after the recent allegations that have come to light (July 2021) about the behind-the-scenes activities at Blizzard themselves, I can no longer support them as a company. It hurts. I love their characters and their games, but... unless they clean house and really fix their internal issues, I cannot give them another penny. I will not give them any additional positive attention by continuing this story. Can you "separate art from the artist?" Do you stop watching movies or shows if a lead actor has been shown to have done something despicable? Can you be sure every name listed in the credits is always a well-behaved human? What percentage of the people involved in a piece of media can do something wrong before the whole thing is tainted? I think many people have had to deal with these questions in recent years. Whether you do or not is for each individual to decide. As for me, in this case, the artist has ruined the art for me.
