This story is a sequel to Spitfire's Off Day

It's Spitfire's day off and she doesn't know how to spend it. So, she hangs out with Fleetfoot and Soarin, her two best friends.

That was the wrong decision.

So, she goes to visit her favorite human instead, who just so happens to need a breather from his day-to-day job in Canterlot. Together, they make a day of it.

Spitfire finally finds out just how good it feels to be with someone you love.

Ms. Harshwhinny is a bit infamous for her cold, serious demeanor. She's a mare that knows how to get things done. She's a professional, for crying out loud!

How you, a human, ended up getting ordered around by her is a long story. Either way, you have some very serious business to attend to tonight.

When Twilight first saw her, she thought the mare was beautiful, and she couldn't help but be attracted to her. When she got to know her more, she began to realize that the mare was somepony she connected with and loved. But as date after date went by, the mare got more and more nervous, as Celestia struggled to figure out how she would break the facade to the mare she had grown to love.

It's a gorgeous summer day in Ponyville, and both Tempest Shadow and Twilight Sparkle both have a bit of a situation on their hooves—they both want to take advantage of the nice weather and go on a relaxing date to get away from the chaos of the world.

But Twilight and Tempest both have very different ideas as to what they want out of dates. And, to make it more complicated, neither of them have ever been on a date before. So, seeking advice from their friends, the two wrestle with their feelings for each other and push to make this first date go well. At the end of the day, though, they are both still too afraid to ask.

My first story on FIMFiction; the first of many, I hope!

It has been nearly a thousand years since Twilight Sparkle died. Celestia and Luna are gone. The Holy Equestrian Diarchy, ruled by a bigoted and brutal theocracy, has driven ponies apart and divided them along tribal lines. Unicorns are driven from society, feared and hated.

The lessons of friendship, painstakingly written down in the journal of friendship by Princess Twilight and her friends, have been warped and twisted to fit the Diarchy's hateful ideology. But to the average pony, this is the truth and reality of the world they live in, beset on all sides by enemies monstrous and magical.

Emberglow, a young pegasus mare, aspires to join the elite Knights, magically enhanced warriors dedicated to the holy Saints worshiped by the state religion. Can she uncover the lies and deceptions that have led the world to this bitter place?

Note on timing: I began writing this long before Season 9 aired, so none of those events happened as far as the narrative of this story is concerned.

Lightning Dust is upset that she didn't make the Wonderbolts. Anon is upset he is unable to get back home.

The two unexpectedly meet in Cloudsdale in the middle of the night. This is their story.

Inspired by Amenra's A Solitary Reign, particularly the closing three minutes.

Spitfire was sick. She was sick and tired. But Equestrian's lone human was there, and she was peeved about it.

She was about to find out how easy she was to read.

Written in a hour and a half. Pure one shot galore. I hate everything.

It had been an accidental falling-in that had brought them together. Sort of together. Velvet's divorce, Sunset's break-up... it was an awkward thing to know that failure of a relationship had helped them bond. Remaining in the only city they'd ever been able to call home, perhaps it was inevitable that their sorrow should not be endured alone.

But now comes their first Christmas. And tonight's date night is more intimate than before. All it would take is a single moment for the sparks to truly fly.

Part Two of my 2023 Christmas Special. Enjoy!

A Canternet outage hits Maretime Bay and Zephyr Heights. Without proper online communication, Hitch and Zipp can only send old-fashioned written letters to each other from their corresponding locations.

A story told through letters and texts, Hitch and Zipp tries to solve the outage while keeping the public calm. They write back-and-forth letters helping each other, teasing each other, and even reach the point of revealing their true affections for each other.

“I actually feel really sorry for you.”

What if those words actually meant something to Opaline? What if the love of a daughter was able to break through her mother’s icy cold heart? With all of Equestria on the line, Misty is forced to confront Opaline in Zephyr Heights, and reveal the truth of her allegiances with the ponies. But one key sentence might be the difference between condemnation and redemption….
