He wished for friendship.
He wished for acceptance.
He wished for peace.
He got more than he bargained for.
He got the throne he’d never cared for and the whole hive to watch over, and now King Thorax must lead his kind into a new era of peace and harmony such as the changelings had never known before. So much is at stake, not just for him or his people, but for the whole world; he cannot allow himself to fail.

Good thing he knows what he’s doing.

…he does, right?

It started with the body of a music radio station's manager being found on the streets: since then, Shining is forced to navigate the dirty and dark streets of Canterlot, pursuing suspects like the musicians Octavia and Vinyl, petty criminals and the manager's marefriend, before eventually confronting somepony he never expected to.

Cheers to BlackFireGallop for proof-reading and advice

A young Sunny Starscout has to write a report for school on the pony she admires the most. It's a no-brainer.

When a charity organization asked Luna to speak at a dinner, she agreed without a second thought, and refused all help writing her speech.

Now the speech is tomorrow, and she has bupkis.

Oops.

(Spoilers for those who still haven't seen My Little Pony: A New Generation yet. Featured from 11/09/21 to 11/10/21.)

Sunny Starscout and her friends have managed to restore magic to Equestria by getting the three pony tribes to unite again. It seems like all is right with the world as far as most ponies are concerned.

But Sunny still wonders what could've caused the bright future Princess Twilight Sparkle had planned for Equestria to fall apart, and how the ponies could've grown to fear and hate each other. And her search for answers yields an unusual result in the form of Princess Twilight herself.

Being brought into an Equestria so different from her own, Twilight is confronted with a horrifying fact: Her legacy has been tainted, defined by the collapse of harmony between ponies after her time. And Sunny will soon learn just what it is that Princess Twilight was trying to do to keep the ponies together.

In order to make sure her class knows a little more about the world, Cheerilee has them exchanging letters with children in other nations. This allows her students to learn about truly foreign concepts, like 'snow day'. And the mere concept of having a random storm grant an unexpected holiday has taught the Crusaders something big: that Equestria is the worst place in the whole world, because the weather schedule means that's never gonna happen.

Surely there has to be a way to get a snow day of their very own. Surely...

...so what's the fastest way to summon a windigo?

(Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.)

When Twilight visits home for Mother's Day, along with Shining Armor, Cadance, and their newborn daughter, she learns that a mother's work is never truly finished.

Revised as of 06/06/2013
Felix Jackson died saving a little girl from a train. Fortunately, it wasn't his time to go and Death was just about to send him back. But Felix pulls a fast one and tricks Death into sending him to Equestria. And Death is none to pleased about this. It's tough enough to avoid death on earth; but when you're the only human in a world of miniature technicolor ponies, hiding becomes all but impossible.

How about a pairing that we know for sure hasn't been done before?

Frederic has been in love with Octavia for a long time. Sadly for him, it's an unattainable goal. Similarly, Rarity was heartbroken by the boorish, uncouth actions of Prince Blueblood. But maybe, just maybe, they can find love elsewhere.
