Rewritten on February 27th, 2015.

Big Mac wants to go out and do something. More specifically, he'd like to go on a date, but when Applejack finds out some of the details, she drags him to a fair and Big Mac ends up dating Fleetfoot. Will this date end well?

(Dark tag added due to minor themes and language that will likely pop up from time to time, may remove in the future if needed) (Removed Dark Tag for the time being, if/when such themes come up I will re-apply it)

Takes place on modern day Earth.

Fifty years after the portal between Equestria and Earth opened, humans and ponies have managed to merge their two cultures together, letting each species live among one another and, in some cases, form strong relationships. Thanks to the combined efforts of pony magic and human science, these families have given birth to children. In more recent years, pony/human hybrids, dubbed “anthros”, have started becoming more of a common sight in some regions, but still a rare sight in others. Along with their rarity, it has not been uncommon for Anthros to suffer from hate and discrimination from less welcoming members of the communities.

Despite this, many of the Anthros have managed to overcome the discrimination they’ve face and go on to become more successful in life in their still rather young lives.

Melody, a young thestral anthro, has just been accepted into Aurora Academy, the largest multi-species school in the country. Now she has to deal with balancing classes, friends, hobbies, and trying to deal with her roommate.

This story is a sequel to Something Of A Tender Moment

Note: This is an alternate sequel to For The Love of A Mother. Read it first and then the prologue.

Azure Glide, former prince and captain of the Canterlot Royal Guard, had been in a self-imposed exile for a decade over a certain incident that shook him to his core. He comes to Princess Twilight Sparkle with a favor to ask of her. After all that time, why would he return?

Note 1: This was written during the time when the final episodes were first leaked. I planned on releasing this the day after MLP ended.

Note 2: For the courtesy of others, please spoiler anything related to the plot in the comments. Thank you. :)

This is a prequel to Azure's Last Journey.

In the final days of his grief-induced exile, an elderly Azure Glide looks back on the life he once lived. All his thoughts drifted to one... the moment he became a father and what led up to it.

This story is a sequel to A Motherly Princess

Throughout her thousands of years of life, Princess Celestia ruled the land of Equestria, fair and benevolent. No other ruler had a greater love of their people than her. However, her heart yearned for a child to care as her own. But at last, her desires were fulfilled

However, there was one fear that Celestia knew all to well in that matter. Sooner or later, she would have to face it.

This marks the final part of my Momlestia Trilogy.

Someone actually thought this fic was worthy to be in the Twilight Library. Well... if you say so.

Thorax is a junior processor, class Q, and has lived his entire life in the hive, yet he dreams of things bigger. Grander. Much more important than watching pH levels in vats all day. Wouldn't you know it, his application to the espionage services gets accepted, too! Maybe he really is going places!
Except he nearly flunked the exam, and knows nothing of the outside world. Regardless, Queen Chrysalis charges him with a very important mission: Spying on the inhabitants of Ponyville, especially Twilight Sparkle.
Nothing, of course, goes right after that.

Shining Armor and Princess Cadance's wedding didn't exactly go off without a hitch - in more ways than one. But with the day's excitement over, the pair head to the honeymoon suite in Canterlot Castle for a different kind of excitement. However, Princess Cadance has something she needs to tell her husband...

A/N: Started "one-shot" fic, written after reading "Adventures of a Teenage Foalsitter" and realizing there was a decided lack of romantic and knowing/consenting Shining Armor x Queen Chrysalis. The first chapter can be read as a standalone story, but, well I suppose it's obvious, the story does go on.

Who would have thought a pony and a changeling could have children together. I certainly wouldn't have. This is Shining Armor, and I'm in a weird situation. Chrysalis has shown up to my home and dropped a kid off stating that it was our son.

What will Cadance think? How am I going to raise a changeling child? Why does Chrysalis keep coming into my life, and why am I finding it harder to keep her away? Hopefully answers can be found with as little problems as possible. Oh who the Tartarus am I kidding, my seed is a changeling! There's bound to be a problem along the way.

Story inspired by Bakki's excellent fanart.

This story is a sequel to A Day for Family

Friends and Family Day has come and gone, leaving behind both many happy families with a plethora of newly-forged, long-lasting memories, and one exhausted griffon with a multitude of hauntingly bad memories that he would rather forget.

Of course, he also made quite a lot of good memories as well. Funnily enough, almost all of them focus on a certain pink hippogriff. These are memories he wouldn't trade for the world.

Unfortunately, it's never really that easy even if Gallus wishes it would be. So while he may be in a far better place than he was before, he's still far from being as well as he could or wants to be.

Luckily, he has a great number of others, willing to stand by his side to help him heal. His teachers... His friends... Silverstream... All of the ones that he loves are standing with him as he makes his journey toward serenity. And while that long, arduous journey is still his to walk...

He doesn't have to walk it alone.

WARNING: Though the Suicide Tag is included, the act itself does NOT occur! In fact, it is added specifically because of Chapter Nine - and ONLY Chapter Nine - where the topic is brought up and discussed briefly.

All other chapters are devoid of any major discussions of the subject matter.
