Stan was one of the lucky ones to make it out of the Canterlot disaster unscathed, unfortunately for him that means he now has to deliver a treaty to the princess.
Who happens to be one of his most deepest darkest fears.

Pincer is a changeling, a proud soldier of Queen Chrysalis. After the failed invasion of Canterlot, he finds himself trapped and at the mercy of Princess Celestia's Royal Guard. Believing that Celestia sees his species as nothing but soulless monsters, he prepares himself for the worst. The weeks crawl by, marked by an endless series of questions he will not answer for fear of endangering his friends and family at The Hive. As his nerves wear down and his interrogators learn just how ruthless he thinks they are, they have nothing to report but his belief that they will kill and destroy his kind without mercy.

Celestia steps in to prove him wrong, and what Pincer learns leaves him questioning everything he has ever known — but also gives him hope for what he'd never thought possible.

After losing her wings Rainbow Dash is faced with a decision that will both redeem her and damn her.

This was written for a writing group using the theme of "MLP Cliches". It was the perfect opportunity to write a parody or comedy, but I don;t really find cliches to be funny, so I wrote this. WARNING: this fic contains serious themes and is not intended for sensitive readers. It also has very little to no actual super-fun and no candy at all.

Cliches include: Rainbow Dash loses her wings, Scootabuse, tyrant Celestia, and Twilight is a drunkard among others.
