It’s Hearth’s Warming season. Ponies of all kinds are excited for this holiday. Unicorn, Pegasi, Earth Ponies and all creatures alike.

All except one.

Sprout Cloverleaf just can’t seem to get into the Hearth’s Warming mood. It’s not that he hates this yearly holiday, he just isn’t as excited, or even interested. Nothing to make him truly feel happy.

That is…until he spots a little filly in a store who desperately wants to buy a dress for her Mom.

This Christmas themed fanfic is based on both the Christmas song Christmas Shoes by Newsong and the 2002 film of the same name, starring Rob Lowe.

Sprout comes across something he wish he hadn't seen. Something awful. Something... dry.

It is now up to him to save his friends from their awful... culinary skills?

The pony tribes have just reunited, and Pipp has accepted the job of teaching the unicorns and pegasi about the wonders of the internet. They're excited to see what this technology can do for them, and she's excited to be something more than another pretty face on social media. Nothing could shake her enthusiasm now.

Written for the 2023 Thousand Words Contest, in the "Comedy" catergory.

(Spoilers for Make Your Mark: Chapter 4. Featured on 7/5/2023.)

Having left Opaline for good, Misty is still trying to get used to the big changes in her life: Living in Maretime Bay, and having actual friends.

To make matters worse, Misty is still plagued with guilt over the role she played in helping Opaline become so powerful. And the guilt continues to linger despite the reassurances of her friends.

Then, one day, Misty runs into a friend of Sunny and Hitch that hasn't really hung out with them in a long time. But Sprout seems to know at least a little about what Misty is going through, in fact, he claims he can relate. Yet neither he or Misty suspects that something might be blooming between them.

Zipp and Pipp spend a bit of time together to discuses the finer things in life, much to Pipp's annoyance and Zipp's satisfaction.

Just a simple Story. Wasting time while thinking up new stuff.

OH GOSH IT MADE IT TO FEATURED 06/19/2023

Shortly after the events of the movie, Sunny invites her friends to try a recipe she found. The conversation soon turns to wings.

Did you know pegasi lose theirs?

Now with a reading!

Your closest friend, Sunny Starscout, has had a rough week. She seems intent on keeping it that way, but you have a plan. A convoluted plan, perhaps, but a plan nonetheless. It involves smoothies, fireworks, and most importantly, a hug. Your goal?

Her smile and optimism: Restored.

Hitch may have a paid-off mortgage…but he isn’t the only young landowner in Mareitime Bay.

Takes place at least a few years before the start of MLP A New Generation.

3/7/23--#1 on the Featured Box. Thank you everyone.

Sunny Starscout is no stranger to strange things happening in Maretime Bay. However, today takes the cake, for everypony is speaking in a strange, incomprehensible manner. Can Sunny get to the bottom of the situation and restore Ponish to normal? And what precisely is 'craunching a marmoset' anyway?

Based on English as She is Spoke, a masterpiece of unintentional comedy.

In the featured box as of 04/10/2022! Thanks guys!

Now has a dramatic reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S9xrSyC55c&ab_channel=StraightToThePointStudio

After waking up alone and trapped in Equestria, I found myself treated with noticeable caution by its inhabitants. Not that I blame them; I am a predator species after all, but that still doesn’t make it easy. Will I ever find my place in this world? Turns out I may not be so alone in my struggle for acceptance. Following Luna’s return, the bat-ponies are also faced with adversity and although most ponies see their return as ultimately positive, it only takes a couple bad apples to spoil the bunch. We are all individuals, with strengths and weaknesses and should treat each other as such. Unfortunately, not everypony sees it that way and although it’s natural to group yourself (and others) together, it’s still ultimately harmful.
