For nearly every citizen of Equestria, it's a holiday: a chance to get together with friends, gather a few treats, and laugh in defiance of the darkness.

For Celestia, Nightmare Night is something else entirely.

Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.

Twilight just wanted to have a nice little Thanksgiving meal at her castle before the holiday crush, with some of her closest friends. It doesn't go quite as smoothly as she would have liked.

This isn't a sequel, but it does contain a reference to a crackfic I wrote a few weeks ago: Chrysalis Is My WHAT?!

If you think that your day is a little too short,
With too much to do for twenty-four hours,
Then you fall back on the final resort,
And go back in time with your magical powers.

Princess Celestia, in her infinite wisdom, comes to the conclusion that she doesn't have anywhere near enough time to do everything on her busy schedule. Not a problem for her, though. The solution to having no time is obvious: just make some more.

The Hive serves the Swarm. The Swarm serves the Queen. The Queen serves the Hive.
***
Chrysalis is dead. Deposed. So is the way of the Changelings. But now the Swarm comes to a point of contention: none of their kind removed her.

The new Queen must be... selected.

They ask the Hive for a choice. But the Hive chooses not. No, the Hive has something else in mind, someone else who should choose. And so do two cultures, utterly alien to each other, find themselves in a dangerous dance...

Okay diary, can you keep a secret?

Next year Miss Cheerilee is going to let us start interning with the ponies of Ponyville, and I know just who I want to intern with. She's cool, she's stylish, refined, graceful, witty, and she was even in Clothes Horse magazine!

She's the bestest most stupendous and amazingly awesome designer in all of Equestria. She's never taken on an intern before, but I'm hoping I'll be the first.

Look out Rarity, here I come!

A Pinkie Promise is a dangerous thing. There are Tartaran contracts that are less strictly enforced. Making one before your first cup of coffee is just asking for trouble.

Based on a prompt by Bad Horse.

My name is Bean Vine Hooffield, and ever since Rarity wrote in some book, I've been hearing that there are some ponies that're saying that Rarity is a garbage pony. Well, I don't think that's right at all, and I'm going to write down why I think that is so that I can prove it too.

Prequel to Fat Stacks... of Books.

Little filly Sunset Shimmer needs something to occupy her time. She’s already read all her adoptive mother’s books, so a trip to the library is the logical solution. Unfortunately for everypony not a princess or the daughter of one, things quickly get out of hoof. The consequences of what follows means things will never be the same again!

These things are mostly books… Almost exclusively books.

Well, except perhaps one thing.
