After feeling alone and unwanted, as well as justifiably angry, Sunset makes a deal with a seemingly kind older man. He just might not be as innocent as he lets on. (Not the Sunset Shimmer demon everyone knows from the first movie.)

NOTE: While the beginning does deal with the aftermath and consequences of Anon-A-Miss, the story isn't about Anon-A-Miss. It's about Sunset and her dealing with her new circumstances.

Every schoolfilly has heard of the Federation - the tall, mysterious, magicless beings from another world, who visit only rarely and briefly; waiting, they say, for 'stable planetary political unity'.

This is the story of when they first visited Equestria; of early contact between the Princesses and the Federation. It is also the tale of how Princess Luna, with some help from the House of Sparkle, managed the first fully Equestrian warp jump; and of how Spike became the first dragon in space.

Additional note: There is an alternate ending for this story, which can be found over here. It follows on directly after the chapter titled Further Communications (and there is a note in the author's notes for that chapter to that effect, with another link).

The reasons for the split are contained in the comments to this story. (Note: Said reasons contain spoilers)

Friendship, the Final Frontier.
When a Starfleet ship discovers that the Orion Syndicate is enslaving ponies, her commander decides to do a good deed and return the rainbow-maned pegasus home to Equestria. Things don't go smoothly for the crew of the USS Judges, but what they find may be one of their biggest discoveries ever.
A Friendship Is Magic/Star Trek Online crossover.

With nothing happening, no world-conquering villains or Crystal Hearts being shattered and so on, Twilight is bored. She has nothing to do, plainly. But while in the middle of a drab reading session, she notices something doesn't feel right. Not to her, but in the night sky. She can't see it, but she can sense it. Something not from this world has entered her world, and it could be the first ever message from aliens.

And perhaps those aliens are trying to say hello.

(Btw, look up "Pioneer Probe Plaque" if you want the image described here. I can't post the actual thing because of mild nudity in it, but you can search it for context.)

An Earth ship is thrown to another galaxy by an Ancient device. There it picks ups a distress call from another vessel under attack. The Tau'ri ship, the Firestorm an Ancient Hunter-Killer from the Pegasus Galaxy, moves to investigate. Once there the commander is shocked to what he finds. A frigate name the Ponyville.

Takes place a year after Stargate Universe and one thousand years after the end of Friendship is Magic.

Twilight Sparkle is not in a good place. Shunned and abandoned by her friends, her mentor and even her family for a thoughtless outburst at the wedding rehearsal. But she still has friends in Canterlot, even if she forgot about them.

Oh yeah, and somepony should probably do something about that whole changeling issue.

Written under the prompt "Warrior Twilight" for FOME's Imposing Sovereigns Contest.

In order to save Shining Armor and Princess Cadance's sex life, Sunset Shimmer teaches Cadance how to be a bad girl.

Written as a Jinglemas 2018 present for Jqnexx.

It was Christmas when it all started.

Christmas was an amazing time of year, and it seemed that everything would simply pass by.

Until she stumbled onto a detective's doorstep in the middle of the night, with nowhere left to turn.

Join Deadwood the Detective as he walks through case after case, using connections and common sense to help those who no one else will listen to, sometimes even for free.

Justice sometimes really is its own reward.

(This story was sort of inspired by all the Anon-a-Miss stories I'm seeing pop up. As someone who was out of the loop for a while, this gives me the ability to write interesting case stories, and create something that I've always wanted to make - a detective story. The first chapter is more of an alternate ending to Diann's own Anon-a-miss story.)

(This story is a case-by-case story - if you feel you've got an interesting 'case file', don't hesitate to send it to me!)

The fate of Equestria once again hangs in the balance. But it comes in the form of the deadliest organism imaginable. A super predator made to hunt apex predators. A form of life dedicated to the eradication of any organism born under a star.

Help however doesn't come from Equestria's God Princesses or The Elements of Harmony... It too comes from the stars... In the form nopony would ever suspect.
