For some ponies, friendship is magic. For others, it is a curse. Chrysalis, Queen of the Changelings, is freed from stone, to find herself once again the Queen of nothing. She flees her captors, and finds her thoughts turning once more to her errant children.

A one-shot speedwrite, completed in 40 minutes, written for the Quills and Sofas contest FiM 10th anniversary panic fiction contest, on the theme 'friendship is magic'. (update: won second place!)

With Canterlot's steam-powered upgrade from the Great Innovation, Directors Celestia and Luna thought the upcoming wedding in Canterlot would dazzle everycreature around. But then the cyborg changelings came - and in their wake, the return of Equestria's formerly most prolific usurper. Can Sunset get the truth from Chrysalis in her last Canterlot case? And will she like what she finds - about Chrysalis or herself?

WARNING: Steampunk Sunset Shimmer Strongarms Sadistic Steel-Swathed Shapeshifters. Say that three times fast.

Another Harry Potter crossover fanfic (in general; it's actually my first one.) This time, however, I'm giving Harry to somepony a little less scrupulous.

Chrysalis had been planning for the attack on Canterlot for years.

When she wanted to relax, she would walk through an odd portal that led to a world unfamiliar to her.

It was during one of these walks that she stumbled upon the blood wards of #4 Privet Drive... and the negative emotions of one Harry James Potter.

Upon the further investigation she had ordered, Chrysalis discovered the true depths of these emotions.

She also ended up linking Harry into her hive physically and mentally. A whoopsie for most, but for Chrysalis, it presented a chance to give a better life to Harry.

The only downside was that she needed to rethink her plans to include Harry.

The Wizarding World shall beware Prince Harry Chrysalia...

The past always comes back to haunt the present, there is no escaping the inevitable. For decades, Celestia has kept a secret from her student. A secret she made out of pain, and through pain will be revealed for all to see; for Twilight Sparkle is the secret daughter of the Sun.

Now, there will be consequences.

Consequences, they come in all shapes and sizes for every decision. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. These words are lessons that Princess Celestia should know, bits of wisdom she practices in her rule of Equestria. How is it then, that when faced with a decision, she chooses the one that would inevitably bring the most pain? How is it that she couldn’t bear being recognized as the mother of her child? And why? Twilight Sparkle is about to find out.

Well, the Nightmare Forces kidnapped Rarity, they broke her, and then were going to possess her right? What if Rarity absorbed them instead? She's still a powerful Nightmare, she looks even more beautiful than she did as a flesh and blood pony, and she just wants to give gifts, spread generosity, and help Equestria's ponies. But first she needs to convince everypony she's not just pretending to be Rarity and isn't evil incarnate. She's convinced Spike . . . now how does she convince the rest of the world?

The changeling race has a long history, older than Equestria itself. When Twilight invites Thorax over to document the full history of the changelings, the story presented sends her down a dark rabbit hole. From this, she will learn the tragic origins of Queen Chrysalis, the creatures once known as faelings, and the war between the three pony tribes before the first Hearth's Warming.

In her darkest hour, how far will Chrysalis go to save her kind from the brink of death? And what will be the ultimate cost?

Rated T for moderate violence, death and gore. Inspired by the story of Arthas Menethil from the Warcraft Universe.

This story is a sequel to The Wizard and the Lonely Princess

Michael Spriggs is invited to Equestria so he may visit his daughter, the budding changeling Chrysalis in the midst of her teen years. He's missed her terribly in the month since she left, but Luna visited him and offered him the opportunity to traverse worlds and see his little pumpkin.

He is shocked to discover the ponies have been watching Earth for a long time and are preparing to make first contact with Earth. However, his concerns lay fully on the purpose of his visit to this strange world. Fully intending to return home, Michael will follow his daughter in her choice to go out and seek other changeling hives to learn about herself.

Join them, a sorceress, an overweight changeling, and the Sun and the Moon as they venture deep into the greatest lair of the changelings and meet the mysterious Empress of the Changelings. There are secrets, personal quests, discoveries, and the simple desire to survive the odd things this world has in store for a simple human.

Not all is as it seems as changeling eyes are upon father and daughter; watching, waiting...
