They say in olden times, if two male warriors fought each other in bloody combat, and both managed to survive, the bond of friendship that would be forged between them would be stronger then iron.

Today, this isn't as true as it may have been before, but that doesn't mean guys still don't fight and walk away better people. Flash Sentry, for instance, currently has been having a shitty week. Nothing has been going right for him, and he's beginning to feel like everything is plotting against him. Of course, his friend, Soarin Skies, doesn't initially realize this and maybe says something he shouldn't.

This, as you can guess, is when things get violent...

"Magic is the sole science not accepted by scientists because they can't understand it."
-Ehrich Weiss (aka, Harry Houdini).

One night in the city of Manehattan, the magician known as "The Great and Powerful Trixie" has moved on with her new life in her newly successful magic show. It was during this night that a certain Spirit of Chaos was spotted by the Stage Director, but he left mysteriously as he'd appeared.

After the show has been set up for the next night, Trixie walks to her apartment during an unscheduled storm which, passing an empty lot in the city's neighborhoods, lightning struck that spot where a new theater appeared. Holding posters and a sign in lights with a very odd name.

"The Great Harry Houdini: Master of Mystery."

A huge thank you to His Highness, PrinceCelestia for the wonderful cover art. And an equally huge thank you to Shadeol for taking the time to edit this fully.

After the girls suffer the effects of some spiked drinks, Twilight reveals a surprising fact about the human world's equine species—basically, they don't get drunk like humans do. Of course, this raises the question of whether or not the same holds true for Equestrian ponies.

The answer is a bit surprising.

Side story in my Harmony and Valor series. Check out the TVTropes page.

Many thanks to FanOfMostEverything for the kind promotional words.

Hit “Featured Stories”, but I have no idea when.

This story is a sequel to She's Just Curious, Is All

The last time he was meant to meet up with Twilight she was busy. She's not busy now though, so she can get on with showing him what she's been working on to send him home. Nothing can possibly go wrong.

This story is a sequel to Just Tell Me The Nasty Bits

Left at a loose end, the local human ends up being asked another question by the eternally-curious Rainbow. He doesn't think too much about why she might ask about what she's asking about. He probably should.
-
I only put this up yesterday, what featured do? Huh?

Being from a completely different world means often being asked questions about that world. Rainbow asks a question she ends up slightly regretting.
-
Wait, I got featured? What does that even mean?

This story is a sequel to This Is What's Meant to Send Me Home?

Rainbow couldn't get a day off so instead just tried to get her work done with as quickly as possible so she could spend time time with her favourite human. The only human available, in fact.

Unfortunately, things often go wrong when you're not there to notice. And this is what has happened.

As she discovers.

Ragar the Ageless has seen many things in his non-life. He has seen fields of cotton candy, the wails of the soon-to-be-dead chanting in chorus. Once he even saw a unicorn. Well, there are a lot of those in Equestria, so maybe that one was less noteworthy. But still, he's seen a lot. Now he wants others to see him in all his glorious evil. The only issue is he's not so good at it.

** EDIT **

Well crap, featured with every chapter. I feel all special and stuff. So let me give you all some love. You're all wonderful people, trees or whatever internet capable folks have been reading.

Dang, look at all those likes. I'm feeling the love. Thank all of you for enjoying my wonderful trip through insane necromancy.

Many Thanks to Locke_Jaw for his wonderful artwork that is my new cover.

Just one week out from her demonic transformation and subsequent rainbow friendship blast to the face, Sunset Shimmer needs a new leather jacket, as her old one (seen here) was destroyed. Reluctantly, she goes to the closest clothier to her home: the infamously uptight Carousel Boutique. Making matters tougher, she must deal face to face with a girl she badly hurt. Can friendship take root even after three years of hatred and distrust?

This is the prequel story for Sunset's Recovery Arc.
