About a week after the Friendship Games, the human Twilight Sparkle is settling in at CHS and Sunset Shimmer is trying her best to help ease the process. A chance bit of online silliness sparks a conversation that goes places neither expects.

A stream-of-consciousness experiment with my favorite gangly ape nerds.

Rated Teen for suggestive dialogue and premarital hand-holding.

This story is a sequel to A Simple Question

Sunburst has been dating Shining and Cadance for a while now, and while things have been going great, he can't help but feel left out when the royal couple sometimes goes on private trips to the countryside without him.

But this time is different: Shining and Cadance have asked him to join them, and he leaps at the offer.

Turns out they have something very special planned.

Proofread by, you guessed it, the man, the myth, the legend, Undome Tinwe.

The cover art is done by the ever fantastic Pastal-Pony-Pictures. She draws some really cute horses and its an honour to be able to use her art. The specific picture can be found here.

After a mirror portal field trip being conducted by Luna goes terribly wrong, Ocellus finds herself trapped in a strange palace far from home. That palace, once abandoned, is now infested with a hive of love-starved changelings intent on using her only way home as a means to invade her world.

Otherwise, Ocellus appears to be alone.

At first.

The story is inspired by, and a homage to, my favorite game of the last decade. However, this story is neither a crossover nor AU. This story is set after "The End of the End" (but before "The Last Problem"), and is purely a My Little Pony story. Warning: rudeness and intolerance are not allowed in the comments, but spoilers are. Exercise discretion. Remain polite and on-topic. And please enjoy the story!

After being framed for something she didn't do, Sunset Shimmer is is bullied, shunned, and alone. She meets three people who will almost certainly be bullied, shunned, and isolated because of something they didn't do.

Their names are Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, and Sonata Dusk. They are human teenagers who don't know magic is real, this is their first time in Canterlot, and they're transferring to CHS. They have no idea what they're getting into.

At another time, Sunset might have been the one person who could convince the student body that these three were not the Dazzlings. Right now, no one will listen to her.

The four of them have each other, but being associated with Sunset marks Adagio, Aria, and Sonata as suspected cyberbullies, and being associated with them marks Sunset as an evil monster (again.)

No idea what you should expect regarding updates.

It's like this: I realized that, if I set out to write the beginning of this, I probably could. Given that my depression has been generally stopping me from writing anything, it took that opening and started writing. I wrote for five and a half hours straight. That sort of thing isn't likely to happen twice, not until my depression is under better control at least. Also, I have no plan.

Updating doesn't require a marathon writing session (or a plan), though, so it could be that I'll have an update soon. Or it could be that I stall out and it's stuck sitting where it is for ages before I manage to update.

Why This Exists OR Credit Is Given

At some point after Cojo5536 suggested that Sunset meet the human Dazzlings in a forum post, I mentioned that River Road once commented on how much Dazzling Doubles by icecreammac resembles an AaM fic and referred to Cojo's idea as "crossing the streams".

(I haven't read _Dazzling Doubles_ myself.)

After about three hours of that marinating in my head, I decided to start writing. Mostly, as noted above, because times when I can write tend to be rare.

For those who might wonder, the cover art is my own creation based on a screen capture from Rainbow Rocks,

(Takes place prior to "The Big Mac Question" for obvious reasons.)

Big Macintosh's romantic relationship with Sugar Belle is hardly a secret, everypony in town knows about it. Even Cheerilee.

In fact, it's because of the relationship that Cheerilee has arranged to meet with Sugar Belle after the end of classes one day. The meeting is something that Sugar Belle is understandably nervous about since she knows about Cheerilee and Big Mac dating.

But Sugar Belle doesn't know why Cheerilee has called her in, it isn't for the reasons the up and coming unicorn baker might think. Cheerilee has something she wants Big Mac's girlfriend to understand and something she wants to make perfectly clear about her own feelings for the stallion.

This story is a sequel to Desperate Devotion

Married, happy and in love, Twilight and Chrysalis are in a good place in their lives. They're living in the Canterlot Castle, sitting where Celestia and Luna once sat. They have plenty of wonderful friends, and Equestria has been at peace for a long time. If things continue as they are, they could easily live simple, fulfilled lives until they grow old together.

Neither of them were ever very content with being content, though.

After a long time spent discussing it, they finally decide to have a child, and in typical over-the-top fashion decide to have Equestria's first ever half-pony, half-changeling child.

They have no idea what's coming.

While this is a sequel to Desperate Devotion, it's set many, many years in the future. Things have changed, some of which I've written the stories of, others which I haven't. You should be able to follow along no matter what you've read beforehand, (you don't even really need to read Desperate Devotion honestly) but the status quo won't be quite what you might expect.

The dread Coronavirus has emerged in Equestria. Meanwhile, Corona Sheen’s life has been rather miserable of late.

This story is a sequel to The Titans' Orb: Rising Storm

Nearly a year has passed since a company of ponies arrived on Earth, and with Callum's help, they have found half of the Orb's fragments. Their quest however is far from over, for the remaining pieces are still yet to be found, their whereabouts unknown.

Finding a mysterious underground desert temple, Callum makes a discovery that further solidifies his role in Equus' fate. But even with his newfound destiny, an ever-lurking shadow looms over the seven friends as they hunt down the rest of the Titans' Orb.

Nah'Lek the Defiler is closing in...

It had been a month. A full somewhat rough month since Princess Twilight Sparkle opened her School of Friendship. Along side her friends, personal student and personal assistant/ little brother. Everything was peaches and cream lately.

Though unknown to the princess and her friends. Six special students one day by the names of Gallus, Sandbar, Smolder, Yona, Silverstream and Ocellus. Along with a few others. Discover a creature unlike any they've seen before.

What will come next, is any creatures guess. But one way or another, all will remember the name of the creatures simply know as... Arrancar's.

A lazy day for Celestia and the human she is for some inexplicable reason shacking up with.

What does that mean?

Means staying in bed! Means cuddling! Snuggling! And -

Oh dear.

Somehow, this also got a reading from Straight To The Point Studios. Not sure how that happened.
