Some ponies say it's no skill to pull a canal barge, but Mersey knows better. Even algae on the bottom makes the barge pull differently than when it's clean, and its momentum can be a help or a hinderance, depending on the situation.

Locks, docks, and opposing traffic all need to be dealt with, as well as an extra barge in Fens Junction that's going all the way through to Stroudwater. If that wasn't enough, she's got to look after her brother and keep him out of trouble, both on the canal path and at the public house.

What it says on the box. Pinkie Pie has a hearse (somehow). She drives it. Hijinks ensue. What kind of hijinks? You'll have to read to find out!

This description is inspired by a thing Eldorado said years ago.

Was also my entry in the Go Steady in the Dark event on writeoff.me.

A storm knocks out the power to Luke and Moonlight Zephyr's house. She doesn't realize the implications of it until she tries to make herself a smoothie.

Not having electricity is, for her, a minor inconvenience. Not having her smoothie is a tragedy, and the obvious solution is to fix the wires.

Luke is not on board with this plan. Power lines are dangerous.

She's not convinced, and she can fly.

Fundraisers at the Pet Center always came bundled with all kinds of emotions for Fluttershy. She knew all her little animal friends needed homes, but she couldn’t deny she was also quite sad to see them go.

Thankfully, Pinkie Pie was there to help.

This story is a sequel to Night Rose

Nothing has been the same for Roseluck since her whirlwind trip to Marecelona months ago. Memories of the Tablao Rosa, and the incredible, unexpected romance she found within its walls, fill her dreams. Frustrated with work and distracted by visions of the past, she visits one of Canterlot's hottest nightclubs to dance away the stress.

But a chance meeting may hold the key to reconnecting to a piece of herself she thought was left behind forever.

Days after her banishment to a new world, Adagio Dazzle stands at the edge of the ocean, hungry. She seeks a morsel not merely of the sea's bounty, but of the power her siren body once wielded, of the knowledge that her days as a dominant force of nature are not yet over.

She has a lot to learn about the human body.

Rainbow Dash was beautiful, the most beautiful pony to be born in a century — and so her fate was sealed. Beauty must be sacrificed, and so Rainbow Dash must die.

Winner of the 2023 EFNW Iron Author Contest. I think I beat out about 40 other writers, and it was hugely exciting to win. Hope you enjoy the read!

Prompts were: vibrant vestigial, vexing volcano, verdant vegetable. Pretty insane for prompts, but Xepher had to pronounce all the Aztec words in my story so I think we're even.

This story is a sequel to In Her Wheelhouse

Ocean City leads up its tourist season with a big car show, a steady parade of classics on the streets and on the boardwalk in the morning. Like a tide coming in or a field ripe for planting, a town shaking off its winter slumber by inviting crowds in . . . Corduroy Road has a job to do, and after it's done she can unwind at an amusement park.

Unless, of course, it's still in the spring maintenance phase of operation.

With Splash Mountain, Speedworld, mini-golf, and a train which may or may not be fake (open to philosophical debate), Jolly Roger Amusement Park has something for everypony!

Inspired by Dogman15's comment on the previous story.

Generally speaking, working at the Canterlot City Museum of Science and Natural History is far from the most exciting job in the world. But Maud Pie is fine with that. And on the slow day of the week, she was prepared for a relaxing, low-stress day on duty.

And then Fluttershy came in with a rather pressing emergency.

An entry into the A Thousand Worlds Contest II. Pre-read by The Sleepless Beholder and Dewdrops on the Grass. Very loosely inspired by a true story from Tipper.
