Ah, Maud. So misunderstood. She tries her best, really she does, but somehow ponies never quite seem to like her. But she wasn't always like this. When she was young, before she grew up, before the accident...

This is the story of how a happy foalhood came to an abrupt end, and how one of Equestria's most singular characters came into being.

----------------------------------------------------

*EDIT* This story was written before "Hearthbreakers", and thus can no longer be considered canon. So think of it as what could have been, rather than what was.

Longdesc

In the Dreamlands, the Princess of the Night meets a young fashion designer named Coco Pommel, drawn to her passionate vision of sparkling white and brilliant diamond and rich indigo. While helping her learn to speak her feelings to the mare of her dreams, Luna is reminded of a mare from her own past. One that lived and died a millennium ago, in an Equestria far different from that of the modern day.

Info

Idea to write CocoLuna inspired by RDT's Broken Promises at a Hearth's Warming Eve Pageant.

Maud did not love Rainbow Dash.

Maud did not understand love.

Maud understood war. Maud understood battle. Maud understood loss.

Those are the things Maud understood.

The student six order from the drive-thru. Smolder wanted a burger, but everyone else agreed on tacos.

If this performs well, I will write a stoner chapter.

Inspired by the weird anomaly that is semillon.

Twilight has OCD, and its causing some serious issues

One day, while deep in thought during a flight, Fluttershy finds herself flying over Sweet Apple Acres. She ends up helping Applejack harvest her apples, but she's got something that she's having trouble getting off her chest.

(My first pony fanfic! Originally posted on EqD back in March-April 2011. I'm pretty sure it was the first AJ/FS fic on EqD, a fact I like to tout because I am silly.

Being as it's my first work, I think I've improved quite a bit since then, but I'm still quite pleased with how it came out as a whole.)

Sometimes I get impatient with how long I write and how long it will take before I get to a part I want to write, and then I write it anyway. (Which is why I'm calling this Eating Dessert First; it doesn't have much to do with dessert, no more than my other fics anyway, but it's me writing the "good parts" first.) This is a compendium of snippets from future parts of my fics, or single-idea scenes where I don't know if I want to write the rest of the fic, or character practice scenes -- basically anything pony that's out of its larger context, assuming there's going to be a larger context.

Because this is a compendium, it's tagged Random because literally any other tag (with the exception of Second Person, which I will probably never write in) could be included. I'll mark individual chapters with what tags they ought to have and what characters are in them.

Note: Cover art probably has nothing to do with the actual fic. Unless I do decide to do a snippet about Celestia and cake.

Following a suggestion from Twilight, Starlight sets out to learn more about Ponyville's residents. She is not ready for the story that Octavia tells her.

A one-shot, set between Seasons 5 and 6. Loosely based on Episode 2 of Yudhaikeledai's "My Little Pony in the Sims".

This story is a sequel to Hard Chitin and Soft Fur

Chrysalis has a small purple filly named Twilight in her castle, and it looks as if she's going to be adopting her for a long while. Can Twilight's love change her, or even the entire hive?

Only time will tell, though Chrysalis is determined that she could never find something so fuzzy and energetic in any way cute.

A sequel by popular demand! Rated T so I have a little flexibility with language and the like, but for the most part I imagine things will be very light and non-explicit.

Since the day she ascended, Dragon Lord Ember has strived to move beyond the shadow of her father's rule. She's pursued some strange things to achieve this, perhaps none more strange than forging a close friendship with Twilight Sparkle, now ruler of Equestria. They've exchanged hundreds of letters over the years, growing closer and more familiar to each other with every one.

Ember knows her feelings for Twilight have changed, but the distance between them had provided an easy excuse to ignore them. Had, because with a summit between the Dragon Lands and Equestria starting, Ember and Twilight have the opportunity to once again enjoy each other's company.

And Ember is not the only one trying to come to terms with her feelings.
