Spike comes across Chrysalis after the events of the Royal Wedding, and shows pity on her from seeing the state of her, and her hive. However, she must still work to garner his trust before he will show enough emotion towards her to sustain her. He visits her in secret, and as the years pass, she accrues his trust.

Although more than just trust begins to develop. . .

NOTE: Weird shipping is weird, but it will pose an interesting challenge. Who knows, maybe this will blossom into more than a simple one-shot/short story.

Teen for some gore, and likely use of language - subject to change in the future.

This story is a sequel to The First Journey: Feelings of Etherealism

Ink managed to survive his fight with Nightmare Moon, and he defeated her for good. Now, he has returned to his peaceful life in Ponyville. However, other issues have arose. A steady stream of his friends from Earth have been popping up, and there is another threat to the throne. . . But is this threat really all it appears to be?

NOTE: So, part 2! This time, Luna x OC x OC, plus numerous other pairings of canon and OC characters, if I get around to them. !)

Just a normal day for Connor, nothing unique about it. Then he decides to go somewhere for lunch, and his entire life gets changed forever. He isn't complaining about it, but he is having some trouble adjusting to this. . . newfound world, shall we say?

NOTE: I know that is a rather cliche description, but eh. It works.

Sequel: The Second Journey
