Sequel to "Breaking Chaos". Pinkie Pie has been having dreams, dreams that make her wish that Discord was still with her. Six months ago, she had to give him up. Now, with Gummy in tow and three certain fillies also following her, Pinkie releases Discord and they start to think they're home free! Until a sinister character plots to ruin their would-be happy life together.

After a passionate, year long relationship comes to a rather dispassionate end, Fancypants, and Fleur de Lis each decide that they could use some time away from Canterlot and each other, each independently choose to stay with a friend in Ponyville.

While there, Fancy finds himself falling for a mare he barely knows after her friend accidentally kicks an apple at his horn and sends him to the hospital, while the friend Fleur is staying with, a shy yellow pegasus, finds herself being drawn to her.

My entry for the Unloved Couples' Writing contest. Also an experiment in writing two pairings at once.

Hearts and Hooves Day; a holiday reserved for ponies to express their love for another, whether it be with a bouquet a of roses or just a simple box of chocolates. However, for the former King of the Crystal Empire, it's only a source of annoyance and rage.

But, for Pinkie Pie(who has been tasked to reform Sombra), it's a way for her to finally show just how much she loves to make everypony happy. Will Pinkie be able to pull Sombra out of his hate for the holiday?

This is a side story to "The Not-So-Normal Adventures of King Sombra and Pinkie Pie". No, it does not need to be read in order for this story to make sense.

Comments are appreciated, whether they be critiques or compliments~

Also, I'd like to give a special thanks to all my faithful readers and commenters in my previous stories with this pairing. You've inspired me to be a better writer and I wouldn't have nearly as much writings if it weren't for all of you. Have a very loving and caring Hearts and Hooves Day, everypony~

This story is a sequel to The Cake Batter Incident

After being revived by his dark magic, Sombra finds himself in Ponyville, under the care of Pinkie Pie, his assigned reformer. However, with a strange voice in the back of his head and Pinkie's odd allure, Sombra finds himself feeling something that hasn't been felt over a thousand years...

Will he be able to overcome the trials that come with being Pinkie's "friend"? And how will he prepare for what's to come?

First person POV.

Badger is half horse, half griffon. He is taller then most griffons and a lot stronger then said griffons. He has an outstanding military career in the small 4 years he was in the ERA (as well as his entire kind has). He was sent back to school on orders from Celestial herself... To learn a new trade, other then war. Along with school, comes the inevitable, drama, bully beat downs, epic reactions, parties, magic, and jackassery.

Join our solider as he uses what he learned in his time in the military and previous schools to fight off bullies, challenge unicorns, fight back against the rules, and get into some awkward conversations and situations.

I am currently looking for and accepting OC requests. My brain is too full of tiredness to make them all myself, and name them.. Fuck that shit. Why not give the bronies a shout out and include their character? Give them some publication?

Tl:dr. Badger is a tough mo fo, hoping to survive in school like he survived his military career. I need any and all OC's to help.

Synopsis

Greed strengthens a dragon. But what of the opposite? Spike feels a little bit of himself broken away with each passing day as Rarity flaunts her newfound love with another stallion. But that's the least of his troubles. A formal gala for which he is the guest of honour quickly approaches. With the relationship between the Council of Friendship and the nobles of Equestria at stake, he is certain this gala could only end in a big political disaster. Enter Princess Luna, cunningly disguised as the sweet elegant mare by his side, intent on turning him from a laughingstock into the star of the show. But jealousy and misfortune swiftly strike, leaving Luna permanently stuck in her disguise. Together they must maintain their cover until they somehow figure out how to fix everything. As the days pass, as the 'one more day's turn into a week, they slowly come to a startling realization - Perhaps there is nothing to fix?

'We’re taken on an adventure, and if I dare say, we aren’t just told the damn story. We’re allowed to experience it. Spike has a moment, and I feel warmth. Luna tosses off the royal baggage, and I feel the feels. This is a great and glorious orchestration in romance...' - Wing

'Bravo! Bravo! ...I'm not into Romance stories because I don't really like them at all but this story here...This is my favorite!' - PlatinumPony

'I don't think I can accurately express how much I truly enjoy this story, right now. When the characters are happy, I'm happy. When they're not, I'm not. It's all so perfectly done that it's like I'm living the story instead of merely just reading it off a page. This already wins first place for most adorable story I have ever read...' - Drgnwolf

'Oh my Gods the feels! I smiled, laughed, got very angry and very sad all in one chapter! Please oh please complete this awesome tale soon! The suspense is killing me!' - Wiriamuzu

'I always wait until a story is finished before thinking about adding it to my favorites. Always. I have never added a story to my favorites before it's finished. This story is the one exception.' - Jomp

'Yeah. You just made a grown-ass man make a 'squee' sound.' - HoneyBadgerr

'Of all the stories I've read I can safely say that this is the one that best combines the written word with sound and music, there are plenty that have tried the same and not even come close to what you achive here.' - Lore

'This is the greatest story I have ever read. This is also now my favorite story. If you don't upload another chapter soon I will wait patiently until you do. I will climb mountains for this story. I will go to Disney Channel.com without my parents permission for this story. If i don't finish this story, i will write down in my will for someone to finish it for me. You, ascended pony writer from a land where the pigeons poop gold, are the greatest person in history.' - Blooming Cherries

'I am loving this story so far. The storytelling, the drama... oh it is so magnificent. A well crafted story by a well deserving author. I tip my hat to you sir. I can see some form of "Beauty and the Beast" in here. But what also surprises me is the way it is written. I've even had some moments of portraying Spike as Holden Caulfield from the famous story, The Catcher in the Rye. Just the way he speaks sort of reminds me of the way that poor man was, and the bits of Spike not wanting to detach from Rarity felt similar in the regards of Holden not wanting to grow up. Again, Pen Mightier, you have done a great job. Keep up the great work!' - XxEpsilonxX

'My cheeks hurt because I been smiling all the way down the chapter. Princess Luna really is the best pony.' - Allen Vth

Trixie meets Discord the Draconequus, and he offers some help for her situation. Somehow, romance came out of it.

This is pre-Season 4, set in between Magical Mystery Cure and Equestria Girls, and Twilight just literally became an alicorn. :) The cover art is from the episode Celestial Advice, haha. *This story FINALLY HAS been posted on the date of (9/22/22) to make it close to what I would have written had I been able to write it in time for the contest I wrote it for.* :D Happy reading! Update: THANKS FOR THE 500+ VIEWS! YAY! :)

The fic is for: this contest.
The contest folder is here.

Glenda is Stygian's biggest fan in Griffonstone. (Not that there was much competition.)

Set a year or two after Twilight's Coronation and many years before the finale episode. Contains no S9 spoilers.

Note: M-rated sequel, "Beaks and Talons," available here.

Glenda is from the wonderful comic "The Convocation of the Creatures."

Winner of "Most well-written story" in the May Pairings Contest 2021.

Every single sentence this author wrote made the story come to life in a BIG way! I didn't once feel like I was reading a story. I felt like I was experiencing it, like I was right there, in the characters' shoes, feeling what they were feeling, seeing what they were seeing. It also helped me to get a better understanding of each character and love them on a deeper level. For example, let's take one paragraph from the story:
...
This kind of vivid imagery is found throughout the entire story, and the characters' voices help bring out their personality in meaningful ways that help you bond with them, to learn to love them beyond what the comics or cartoon give you. This was a no-brainer as the most well-written story in the contest.

Big thanks to Aragón for help with story structure, Wolfjack for trout en papillote, and  Steel Quill, Krack-Fic Kai, Sledge115, and Nitro Indigo for prereading.

Cover art via commission with Harwick. I love it and it is far better than I ever envisioned or deserved. 

Discord gets surprised by a mysterious letter, inviting him once again to the Gala. Oh course he's honored to get an invitation but what surprises him more is that Luna asks him to dance. Discord accepts, knowing just how wild she can be. If only Celestia could see them now. Oh wait she was watching. He was going to have fun...

Based on the song: "Shut up and dance with me."

Luna seeks her own place in the world. Her sister is the sun in more ways than one and she's grown tired of always being eclipsed by that light, so she makes a decision. She will go on sabbatical, see the nation she was exiled from, participate in it, and what better place to start than an empire as timelost as herself. But stepping out of the light of the sun can lead to places full of shadows, and not even the Mare of the Moon commands all darkness.
