[An AU where Sunset Shimmer never went through the mirror. The mirror portal didn't exist, and neither did the humans.]

When Sunset woke up to find herself in some part of Equestria she's never been before, she had originally planned to drive all the ponies apart in this place and gain more power to show Celestia that she's strong enough to be an Alicorn. But she didn't need to; all the ponies were already fighting with one another.

EDIT: Sequel is up now!

Rarity and Twilight Sparkle are tasked with one of the inevitable trials of romance: figuring out their snuggle dynamics, and what it means to them.

For something like that, actions speak louder than words.

Heavily inspired by the now-deleted story 'Big Spoon' and with cover art by LilFunkMan. It has been edited by me. Contribute to the TVTropes page!

After a fight with Celestia, Sunset flees through a magic mirror into a different world.

Without her horn, any direction in her life, the inability to simply go back home and surrounded by strangers, she has to go on a journey of self discovery to find meaning in her life as dark forces begin to threaten the world she resides in.

But, at least she still has her magic and plenty of instruction manuals to learn more from.

On her way to the attic to gather materials, Rarity is surprised by the visitor waiting in her sewing room. The Element of Generosity will have to dig deep, not to satisfy the client, but to just understand them.

Written as an entry for the May 2020 Pairing Contest.

A big thank you to totallynotabrony for editing this story.

Markus Becker is a Hauptmann, or Captain, of the German "Bundeswehr", mechanized Infantry. At least he was, until his armoured car hit an IED and he was sent to Equestria. There he found, that he couldn't move, no matter how hard he tried.
Luckily for him though, there is four-hooved help nearby...

'Sex'-warning added for a few sexual implications here and there... and because of chapter 32.

Added 'Gore' because I noticed that I went a little overboard with the descriptions of the action. Especially given that it is rated 'teen'.

Minuette has an imaginary friend. At least, that's what everypony else thinks.

When ten-year-old magic student Minuette comes into possession of an antique vanity mirror, she is surprised to discover there is a creature living inside: A bug pony with big fangs and glowing eyes. Most little foals would probably be scared of such a creature, but not Minuette. Armed with a cheerful smile, she decides to befriend the bug in her mirror and uncover the mystery behind his bewildering predicament.

It's just such a shame that nopony else can see him.

This story is part of 'The Bugs in Strange Places' series, whose other entries include The Bug in The Herd, The Bug in The Basement, and The Bug in The Cave. You do not need to read any of these previous stories to enjoy this one, as they are not directly connected.

Inspiration for this story comes directly from this fine individual right here.

No one can top Tempest for long-wearing yet perfect looks. But how does she do it? What's her secret? Rarity wants to know. And then... she finds out...

A fun, quickie one-shot, not set in any specific AU, though it's compatible with several of my other Tempest stories.

User Spaniard Kiwi was kind enough to post a Spanish translation over on DeviantArt -- thanks much!

This is an Elsword Displaced story and despite how creepy the description is the story will not really be too bad. Now on that note the dark tag is there for a reason and there will be some adult themes going on. It's not bad enough for a teen rating but there will be some points involving depression and other things along those lines.

After a millennium waiting for the night of her sisters return, Celestia is ready to enact her plan to save her sister of the dark magic that corrupter her.
The castle was empty to prevent collateral casualties, and Twilight had been making friends in Ponyville to later be able to wield the elements.
She now only had to wait for her sisters return, and play her part.

But things don’t go as she expected

Every citizen of the Crystal Empire seemed to go through memory loss after the 1,000 years banishment. What if King Sombra did as well?
