A typographical mistake leads Nightmare Moon's return to play out very differently. It still gets the job done, though.

It’s a cold day in the Crystal Empire, but there’s warmth to be found in the Crystal Hearth Lounge.

Written for the June 18 2022 Quills and Sofa’s “Gay” contest.

Finals had just finished up at the School of Friendship, which meant that the weekend was wide-open for the relieved students on campus. However, since the recent actions of Cozy Glow still lingered guilt across the student body, a group of students decided to take take advantage of their newfound freedom with a gracious visit. They were hoping to find the Student Six in their dorm rooms so they could present a thoughtful gift, and some much-needed apologies for their involvement with the sadistic filly. Unfortunately, the group were only met with Smolder when they tried to state their case.

And to make matters worse, the dragon did not seem too keen on accepting their forgiveness right off the bat.

Can Turquoise and her friends manage to break through Smolder's gruff exterior and prove their atonement? Or is there a deeper reason for the dragoness' resistance to their claims?

Ever since the defeat of Cozy Glow, it was no surprise that the group of students known as the 'Young Six' would remain close friends outside of classes. However, it seemed that Gallus and Smolder were eager to enjoy one another's company away from the others. After numerous instances of the gryphon and dragon slipping away without much explanation, the other four students of their group were determined to learn the truth of their secretive outings. Were Gallus and Smolder secretly a couple? Or was there more to their private meetings that their friends weren't aware of?

To get to the bottom of things, Ocellus was quick to hatch a foolproof plan with their friends. Unfortunately, even with the surveillance in check, none of the group were prepared for truth about the taboo indulgences the two shared with one another...

Warning: the following story you are about to read contains disturbing material that may be unnerving to some readers.

It is (for some) the first Nightmare Night for the Student Six. They spend the evening in costume wondering the fairground of Ponyville enjoying the pony holiday. However, a magic show gets their attention in which the magician shows off a curiosity: a centuries-old automaton. Gallus is asked to come on stage in which, even after the show, the trick that he went along with, follows him back to the school.

A special thanks to LeylaQuartz for having this story finally be edited and inspiring to give an alternative ending.

And thank you to Zachmoviefan for his reading of this story.

Sombra has been defeated yet again. Death has never put a crimp in his plans for total conquest though. However, this time he has been brought back not by a pony or a meddling Draconequus, but by a Dragon. A Dragon who had been planning to have his horn for dinner. Sombra finds to his horror that not only is he powerless, he is stuck alone with this cute aggravating Dragon for around 3 months. What will happen in that time?

A Sombra/Fizzle fic for the Crackship Contest: 2022. Takes place after Sombra's defeat in Season 9, but before Future Twilight at the very end of the season. AU, since it diverges from the canon ending.

Blitzo the Imp never intended to show up in a world of ponies. He still has to find a birthday present for his lover, Stolas the Prince of Hell. How will he do this? Who will help him? Can an Imp blend in with a city as diverse as Ponyville?
Hopefully Pinkie Pie can help her new demonic friend.
Blitzo and Stolas are from the Youtube cartoon series "Helluva Boss".

Rated Teen due to mentioning of alternate lifestyles and gay male shipping.
This got into the Featured box on 1/6/22! Thanks, guys and gals!

The birth of an alicorn is a truly blessed occasion.

Or so some ponies believe.

Nightmare Moon has returned from her thousand years of banishment on the moon.

These thousand years have not been kind to her.

She decides to sell the idea of Eternal Night instead of trying to take over the world.

Nothing will go wrong.

Set in: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Part One. Not to be taken seriously.

Thanks to Petrichord for some of the ideas in this story!

“We need like, magically entwined rings. Six of them. Forged together. Enchanted together. Together forever. Like we’re going to be. And I don’t think that there’s anything like that that we know about. So no marriage for now.”

Smolder scratched the back of her neck. “Actually...maybe...I know a spot?”

“You’re kidding,” Gallus said.

“I was holding off on talking about him until it was time to propose,” said Smolder. “He’s an old fart who lives in a cave on the borders of the Dragonlands. His place is kinda camouflaged to non-dragons so the professors don’t really know about it and neither do your species’ governments.”

“Well, I know what we’re doing today,” Ocellus said. "Committing crime for the sake of my five fiancees. You know, this is one of the few things that I think both Chrysalis and Thorax would be proud of me for."
