Ever since the Gabby Gums Gossip column ended, most of the articles' exaggerations were forgiven and forgotten. Among those was an article titled Celestia: Just Like Us? With that wiped, the subjects of Equestria quickly went back to raising Celestia up on the pedestal of princess-hood that very few could ever hope to attain.

Her thoughts about trying to fit in with her fellow ponies are carried with her to an evening shower.

Rated "Teen" because the reader will be exposed to a naked woman in the shower. Seriously, kids, don't peek.

Discord never did strike Applejack as somebody she could trust. Heck, when he was evil, she at least had an idea of what to do about it. Now, he seems more or less a nuisance than anything else.

AJ takes pride in her work. No pony can question that. But Discord believes that's just because she's never had the power to do anything differently. So he makes an offer. He'll loan a copy of his powers at no charge. How long will she be able to resist the easy road when it also seems right?

Dr. Wolf, are you sure you don't want to write these stories? I mean, they practically write themselves.

The years were passing by quickly at the university. Lyra was well on her way to getting her degree in String Instrumentalists. But after having a look at her major path, she finds out that she's missing a few units of science. The only science course left in this semester that has a remaining seat is... human science.

Celestia d**n it.

Not your typical human-esque pony story.
Rated "Teen" for a few choice words.

It's inevitable that the Cutie Mark Crusaders will eventually succeed in their goal to get pictures on their flanks. What isn't set in stone, however, is the timing. Who will get their mark first? What effect will it leave on those left behind?
The last question is especially difficult on Apple Bloom's conscious. How can she support her friends when she sees visions of fate pulling them apart?
Perhaps the wanderer of dreams can shed some light on the matter.

Credit for the idea goes to Dr. Wolf.

To the rest of the world, one thousand years was a long time for the Crystal Empire to disappear. For the locals, it was merely a day. When Spike the Glorious saved this kingdom alongside the Crystal Princess, Opal Bloom was filled with as much joy as her fellow Crystal Ponies.
But when all the celebrations are said and done, what can she do? As much as she doesn't want to remember the miserable times, the fact remains that Sombra killed her parents. She hides her misery behind a beautiful white smile.
Perhaps it's time for Opal Bloom to express her true feelings in writing.

Ever wish your fanfiction had a bit more SNL - Celebrity Jeopardy? Well, shame on you! You should be more careful with what you waste your wishes on.
Most of this little side project will be good, clean fun. But slightly more mature themes may slip in from time to time. Please read cautiously.
I'm not the first one to think of such a crossover and I know I won't be the last.
Edit: August 18, 2014. I'm done with this. It probably shouldn't have dragged for this long anyway. Good afternoon, everyone.

The ponies are about to find out that shipping isn't all it's cracked up to be. In fact, it is very uncomfortable to be so close together.
---
Rated "Teen" for dry humor that would go right over a child's head.
One-shot.

Noi is a filly of many traits. She's a champion pillow-fighter, a student detective, and the youngest professional ice cream taste tester in Ponyville. However, she is not fearless. She has good reason to be scared. After all, she loses her mother to a terrible curse every year.
"The Needle" has returned.

I stumbled across this pic on Lumorn's page and thought that it needed something in writing.
Rated "Teen" for slightly horrific daydream sequences.
One-shot.
(Where is Noi's character tag? She had a spoken line in the show and everything!)

At first, the filly thought it was just Snips and Snails being Snips and Snails. However, some of the other ponies around Ponyville have started to make the same mistake, even when Sweetie Belle is in the exact same room just a couple yards away.
Well, Sun Glimmer has had it! She decides to take the most desperate action possible to show Equestria who she is. She's going to do the one thing that Sweetie Belle never had the guts to do: Sing at the next talent show.
Will the combined support of her sister and her musical tutor be enough to accomplish this task, or will she end up copying Sweetie Belle's stage fright?

The cover image is a (possibly permanent) placeholder until I can find a picture that captures Sun Glimmer's frustration and/or fear.
Rated "Teen" for a brief alcohol reference.

Edit: Here are the other two fics in which this interpretation of Sun Glimmer makes a cameo.

Not very many ponies knew about the pony that strives to be Ponyville's first ice archer medalist. Not very many ponies recognized the potential in Archer.
Tootsie Flute is not very many ponies.
---
As a sort of side-quel to "But... That's My Big Brother", "Center of a Tootsie Flute" explores the innocent love interest that one filly has on another.
