Vinyl Scratch, the mare behind DJ PON-3’s purple shades, is boldly exploring new frontiers of electronic dance music. Meanwhile, Spilt Ink, music critic for Sound on Sound magazine, is just as boldly exploring how far he can stick his head up his own rectum.

Trace the trajectory of one mare’s career—and one stallion’s sanity—through this peek into the music world’s sordid underbelly: the album reviews.

“If you want to see a pure distillation of the most conceited reviewership possible, look no further!” —Chris
“Overimportant pretentiousness ...” —Present Perfect
“The complete verbal destruction evoked from this critic is so outstandingly cruel, it feels like I’m viewing a different kind of art.” —Tired Old Man
“Enough WUT in it to potentially scare away some readers.” — PaulAsaran

This story can be enjoyed on its own, or as a companion piece to Octaves, by JapaneseTeeth. Basically, JT asked me to help with the music reviews in one chapter of his story. I enjoyed writing in the voice of a stuck-up indie music critic so much, I couldn’t stop myself from writing more, and then this story happened.

After Rainbow Dash reveals some unknown romantic feelings that she had, I'm not really sure how to respond, because I'm not attracted to small colorful horses. However, as determined as she is, Rainbow, and for some reason all of Ponyville, won't take "No" for an answer. They devise to bring back an old tradition to settle the romantic matter.

Warning: Strong Language like shit and fuck but that's bout it.
Also, the Romance tag seems to be one sided in this story so just be aware.

Marble pie is known to be the quiet one of the Pie bunch. But that doesn't stop her from wanting to visit her big sister in ponyville. As they come by Sweet Apple Acres, Pinkie begins to chat up Applejack. Until they are unexpectedly summoned by the cutie map. While Pinkie and AJ are gone, Marble is left in the reliable hooves of Big Macintosh.

Twilight Sparkle is a devoted and faithful student, willing to do anything that Celestia asks of her. But that relationship is perhaps not two ways. When given the opportunity to find a solution, she settles on a potion.

This is currently T-rated. It might turn into an M-rated epic, or it might stay a short one shot. It could also be a T-rated two shot. Let me know what you want out of it in the comments. It's a story that's been on my mind for years, about self mind control. It's been hugely towned down, and I may be convinced to provide the much darker original first draft if someone is curious. Also, this version was written entirely on my phone. Cool.

Losing a child is the most terrifying thing that can happen to a parent.

Sunset Shimmer had been gone for years. Celestia had never really given up hope that she would see her again, but the doubt had always been in the back of her mind: what if she never returns? The echoes of their last fight followed her all those years.

And now that Sunset Shimmer has returned, Celestia wants to see her again. She has an offer to make, to a filly she raised as a daughter.

A leprechaun names Liam goes upon ponies who has his pots of gold.

Fluttershy regrettably decides that it's time for her to get a haircut, so she goes to Rarity for assistance.
