While nobody had really known what a proper coronation ceremony was supposed to look like, it was pretty easy to tell this was not it. At the very least, the room looking like someone had exploded a purple feather pillow was a pretty bad sign.

Everypony knows that dragons eat gemstones. But orange crystals? When Spike brings home some new kind of gems, Twilight realizes they have an ancient magic unknown to ponykind. So, she warns everyone. Well, almost everyone.

Sometimes mistakes change everything.
Sometimes literally everything.

Twilight Sparkle has had her magic stolen by a blood thirsty vampress known as Vesper. Without her magic the elements of harmony are useless so her friends cannot help her. Desperate to reclaim her magic she seeks out help from a dragon she's read about that can move at impossible speeds. This is a tragic tale of high adventure and fun fantasy.

Pinkie becomes a superhero and even lets Fluttershy be her faithful sidekick.

Twilight Sparkle is the new mare in town. She was sent by her teacher, Princess Celestia of Equestria, to study the magic of friendship. However, her feelings get the best of her when her new friend organizes a hangout session and she realizes friendship may not be the only thing she'll discover.

The war between the Avengers is over. Neither side has won. The team is scattered. All Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, and the others can do now is try to adjust to this new status quo.
Until now.
Pursuit of mysterious thieves leads the Avengers to a new planet, populated by...colorful talking ponies. Oddly enough, these ponies may actually know something about conflict resolution and personal problems. The Avengers had better listen, because only together can they stop a sinister force that plans to bring both Equis and Earth to their knees.

It happened quickly, almost as if someone had flipped off a light switch. The sun died, shrouded in insidious black smoke, leaving us in darkness, and a regular mare is left alone to fend for herself in an unfamiliar world. Or perhaps she's not so regular after all, because she seems to have attracted the attention of a few unwanted visitors, and somebody is watching from the shadows, tracing every step she takes through the damned wasteland.

Twilight and Rainbow Dash are visiting Rarity. However, when the first snows of winter suddenly fall--rather than let her friends trudge through the cold on their way home--Rarity invites the two to stay the night at her place.

What started off as a fun night for the three will soon spiral into an embarrassing evening for Rainbow Dash, especially after Rarity unveils to them her newest line of animal-inspired sleepwear.

Filthy Rich always thought he was a good father to his daughter and a good husband to his wife. Sure, his wife was stricter towards Diamond than he liked and Diamond was terribly unfriendly, but he never realized how far things had gone.
Until one terrible day.
