In a far, far away future, Equestria isn't anything like it was once when the elements of harmony where still in existence. Instead, the always-burning twilight rules the land of ponies and magic - just as the rest of the world.

Few are still alive, fewer even have the will to live.
But some can't die, no matter huch much they may yearn for it.
Such is the fate of princess Twilight under the twilight.

There is no magic in this world anymore.
There is no hope.

Only the twilight.

Octavia is looking for a new home in Ponyville and decides to check out Vinyl's available space. Of course, she would happen to come to town right when a major storm's about to hit, and that storm would drop a whole tree on Vinyl's home. Seeing their situation, Fluttershy kindly offers them shelter.

That might not have been the best solution. Can Fluttershy help these two musicians get along, or is a new storm about to form inside her cottage?

Takes place at the same time as the Season 1 Episode, Look Before You Sleep.

I am surprised and flattered to discover a new audio reading by Scribbler Productions!

Twilight Sparkle just can't find enough time in the day. She has to study friendship for the Princess, hang out with her five friends, and juggle her own hobbies and interests besides. But when a novel solution presents itself in the form of an experimental new spell, will it solve her time crunch, or will she be distracted even further?

This story is a sequel to Party Pony Proposal

(It is strongly recommended you check out Birthday Built For Two and its sequels first, as well as Sticks and Stones, though familiarity with both is not required.)

Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich are finally going to get married, and their marriage is the talk of the town for Ponyville. Pinkie Pie is all too excited to plan her own wedding, especially when she's marrying the pony of her dreams.

But it turns out that Maud has already decided to get married to Mudbriar, and her marriage ceremony is going to fall on the same day as Pinkie's wedding. So what's a party pony to do when she's got two big celebrations to oversee on the same day?

Why, combine the both of them into one super double wedding spectacular of course! Pinkie and Maud will get married on the same day at the same time, and both Cheese and Mud are onboard with the idea. But is Pinkie up to the task of juggling her own desires with Maud's subdued ones? Well, maybe she'll have to rely on some extra hooves for this occasion.

This story is a sequel to Class for Two

(It is highly recommended you check out Birthday Built For Two first, along with its sequels. Though familiarity with them is not required to understand this fic. Takes place after "The Last Laugh" for obvious reasons.)

Thanks to Pinkie Pie, Cheese Sandwich is back on his hooves and ready to spread laughter and cheer wherever he goes. And Pinkie Pie couldn't be happier for him, especially since he's her very special somepony.

But it isn't long afterward that Cheese returns to Ponyville once again, this time with something very important he hopes to ask Pinkie Pie about. Something that will change their lives forever.

Will Cheese be able to work up the courage to ask? And if he does, how will Pinkie react?

This story is a sequel to Rock Solid Approval?

(It is strongly recommended you check out Birthday Built For Two first, in order to better understand some things. But familiarity with it is not a necessity. Takes place prior to "School Raze". Proofread by Smity91 on Fanfiction.net.)

Cheese Sandwich has been on the road for a long time and despite the letters, there's much about Pinkie's life he hasn't been aware of.

But now the party pony finally finds himself with some free time, coincidentally it's on the anniversary of the day he and Pinkie agreed to enter into a relationship.

When Cheese comes back to Ponyville, he's surprised to learn that Pinkie Pie is now a professor at Twilight's school of friendship. And so he decides to do what he does best, surprise the pony he loves more than anything.

But how will the students react to the knowledge that one of their teachers is in a long distance relationship with a pony they've never met before?

This story is a sequel to Birthday Built For Two

(It is highly recommended you check out Birthday Built For Two and Starlight and Sunburst's Misadventures in Flurry Sitting first. Takes place after "Rock Solid Friendship" for obvious reasons. Proofread on DeviantArt by Smity1038.)

Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich have been a couple for some time now, and their long distance relationship has seen its fair share of challenges. But Cheese has finally come back to Ponyville, looking to settle down for a while and take a break from party planning.

Of course, this temporary rest gives Pinkie the perfect opportunity to finally introduce Cheese to her big sister, Maud, now living in Ponyville adjacent.

But Cheese Sandwich has never met Maud before, he's only heard about her from Pinkie's letters and they haven't told him much. And he's very concerned about what she might have to say about him dating her younger sister. What if he can't get Maud's approval?

With Pinkie Pie's birthday coming up, her friends find themselves facing a bit of a dilemma about how to celebrate it. Fortunately, Cheese Sandwich just so happens to come back to town, and he's more than willing to take over the party planning.

Pinkie is quite thrilled to know her party pal is back in town, but soon she can't help but notice that Cheese seems to be acting rather strange around her.

Will Pinkie be able to figure out why Cheese seems to be acting so odd? And what's the real reason behind Cheese's return to Ponyville?

After Twilight said Cadence was evil, everypony rejected her warnings. Twilight feels sad and betrayed. Sad that especially Spike, Shining Armor and her mentor had avoided her, and betrayed that her friends had told her that they would take what Twilight would tell them seriously after the Lesson Zero events. Twilight just didn't expect Nightmare to come keep her company.

Pinkie Pie gets sad sometimes. It's just a fact of life, and it's one Fluttershy had to get used to when they got together. Sometimes Pinkie gets sad, and all Fluttershy can do is be there for her.

Pinkie is brash during these episodes, though, and that can cause problems. Such is the case when she's spending time alone at her "thinking spot," the mirror pool in the Everfree Forest, and an accident leads to her falling straight into it.

The magic of the pool splits her in two, and suddenly there's a new Pinkie in town. She isn't there to party, though, and her sour expression and flat mane don't seem like they're going to disappear anytime soon.

She'll just have to learn to live with it.

This story is set in the same universe as most of my other stories, and as such the setting and characters may be a little different than they appear in the show. None of my other stories are required reading for this one, but they do have context for why characters may look slightly different or live in a different town.

Going the other way, this story does have slight spoilers for other stories in the chronology, notably for my last story.
