Stories set in the Oversaturated World, some silly, some less so.
"I think I hate Starlight Glimmer."
Sunset couldn't help but smile down at the girl in her lap. She tried to keep any condescension out of her tone. "Trust me, Junior, you don't even know what hatred is."
Junior squirmed and scowled on the comfy, understated chair that had taken Sunset five Realms 4 Less catalogs to find. "Do too."
"Define it."
"Not liking someone a lot." After a moment, Junior continued, "Like, really, really a lot."
"I can't tell if you're being this adorable on purpose or not."
After a moment, Junior giggled. "Neither can I." She crossed her arms. "Though I still don't like Starlight."
"Why not?" said Sunset.
"She used me, broke parts of me, stays in me without anypony asking me what I think, got some of my friends to set me on fire and flood me, and taught her own friend how to teleport my organs."
"Okay, those are pretty good— Wait, what was that about your organs?"
Junior slumped. "Long story. And just when I thought she might be going, she gets to stay anyway. And nopony asked me again!"
Sunset held back most of her laughter. "Do they even know you're there to ask?"
"Well..."
"And she did fix the damage she caused, right?"
"Yeah, I guess."
"And from what I've heard, the fact that she's making friends at all without brainwashing them is a huge, harmonious step forward for her."
Junior squirmed a bit, then looked up at Sunset. "And she did help with the whole changeling invasion thing."
Sunset nodded. "There you go."
"I still wish somepony would ask me how I feel about it."
"How about I go write Twilight and tell her how you feel?"
Junior hopped off the chair and beamed as she picked up the castle hat she'd left on Sunset's end table. "That'd be great! Thanks, Aunt Sunset!"
Sunset grimaced. "I'm... really not comfortable with the idea of being a castle's aunt."
Junior paused in front of the portal to Equestria's Astral Plane. "Cousin?"
"Cousin works."
Starlight blinked and shook her head. "I've offended your house?"
Twilight reread the latest missive from Sunset, then nodded. "Several times over, apparently."
"I... That doesn't even... What?"
Twilight shrugged her wings. "I mean, it is the offspring of the Tree of Harmony."
"Even by your standards, no, by Sunset Shimmer's standards, this is bizarre."
"I don't disagree, but I think you still owe somecastle an apology."
Starlight sighed. "Promise to never say 'somecastle' again, and it's a deal."
Some of the blame goes to MythrilMoth, and all of the blame for the story that helped engender this idea goes to me.
So, yeah, my fault.

ALL OF MY WHAT
This was hilarious and 120% cannon as far as I'm concerned
Edit: Twilight, you should be ashamed! She's a lady, therefore the correct term is somepalace, obviously!
Yeah, season 7 looks like it's gonna give me a LOT of fuel for Bratty Daughter.
Also:
*JUST EFFIN' DIES* XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Well, at least she's not identifying as an Apache helicopter.
Crossartifacting is so confusing.

Palaces are feminine, castles are masculine? Gender essentialism strikes!
'...now what's this about "teleporting her organs"?'
8100913 better say nothing abut Keeps then. And Fortresses I won't poke with a 30 yard stick!
8100935 Rooms, Cute map, other varyus things that came whit the palace.
8101217 Oy, don't harken on Fortresses. They are a bit over protectiv, but thats just becouse they care about everyone whit in them.
And I allway found Keeps to be realy good friends. Yes some are a bit wierd and keeps to themself, but that dousn't meen that there are strange sthings going on in them all the time... moste of the times...
season 7 is out?!
also somebod somepony somcadtle can all be phased out by somesoph, shorthand for some sophont
So she's dere with Sunset but tsun with Twilight huh? Well Sunset is kind of family by now.
8100346 8100500
Perhaps the best part is that I can easily hear Twilight saying "somecastle" with complete, unironic sincerity.
8100788
Excuse you. Junior is a land, thank you very much.
8100935
"Yeah, about that. Next time, teach teleportation somewhere that doesn't contain one of the most important and irreplaceable magical devices in all of Equestria."
"Oh. Right. Sorry?"
"It's fine. This time. And to be fair, you were able to find it afterwards."
"I feel like there's a story here."
"Well, this one time at magic camp..."

Note that Junior is not Little Tree. Different worldlines. If you ever need to tell them apart, remember that Junior's mom has much better fashion sense and Little Tree can grow giant crystal slapstick peaches. (Though given the transtemporal nature of Namepending Castle, it's entirely possible that the two could compare notes.)
8100913
Well, Castle's protect the home, but Palaces are where the work really gets done.
"Well, Starlight, nocastle objected to calling anycastle somecastle. So you'll just have to live with it."

Yeah, most castles and palaces are lands, but several are enchantments. Had to go to Fortress to get an artifact (Snow Fortress).
It is begging the question to assert that the Friendship CastlePalace should be a land because you say it is a land.
If you go with the translation convention theory that nopony in the show is actually speaking english, the whole "somepony" thing makes me wonder how equish is structured so that the speaker or subject's race is included. Also, how many words for hay they have.
I was hoping that someone would eventually ask themselves how the Tree has responded to all this mass stupidity that Starlight has inflicted upon it.
Now... how does one apologise to the intangible spirit of a very large building and how does one make up with it? Is Starlight going to be hoof-polishing every surface for the next few days?

Given that there are several sentient races in Equestria, a pronoun structure that automatically includes species information is sort of an inevitable direction for a language to take.
Huh. I never thought of it like that. I actually thought Sunset was talking to the embodiment of Time, but her calling him Junior and him calling her Aunt kept throwing me off.
Oh my god...somecastle
Yes, like the rest of the comments before me, I needed to voice my complete amusement at how much sincerity I can imagine twilight saying this with in the show
Here's Starlight, needing to make an apology and show she is genuinely sorry and instead she's like, "Never say somecastle again." What if the castle WANTS to be known as the person it actually is, Starlight? So inconsiderate!
