When she was helping her moms friend Carrot Top in her field a day, she overhears Carrot Top say a very interesting word. Excited by her vocabulary being expanded, she rushes home to tell her mom and sister the news.

Done in honor of the series by Alex Warlorn. Discord hurt a LOT of ponies in his brief reign of terror, and here we see Cheerilee trying to deal with the fallout of her own chaos-driven madness. But will the pony she seeks to help and apologize to accept it? Or will Cheerilee's sister continue to seek the only solace she's always turned to?

Berry Punch was an average pony, living in an average city, who owned an average business. In fact, everything about this particular mare was average, with the exception of one thing: her child. While bat ponies weren’t unheard of in Ponyville, one certainly would not meet one every day, let alone the first bat pony documented in the history of Equestria.

Sgt. Marcus Burns, SAS, is sent into the Everfree Forest by a strange bolt of magical energy, and Ponyville's local drinker stumbles across him.

What happens, happens. I think that is one of the rules of Causality as stated by the late, great Douglas Adams. It is a pretty important rule and I use it to guide me through life, no matter what goes on in it. So, when I was driving to an out of town job and found myself in another world, I did my best to take everything in stride.

I would be the first to say the adjustment is not easy. Especially, when the first thing you do is make yourself a pony distrusted, disliked and defamed by some national heros. Thinking about that, I think I have to invoke another Douglas Adams quote. "Don't Panic."

This is the result of me getting bored one day and starting writing. Now that I got a bit of it done, I wouldn't mind honest opinions, and flame away if you feel the need. I have thick skin.

As you might notice, there are a few chapters with a box at the top. These are the ones that my editor and I went through again, and hopefully improved. I'll refrain from changing plot but spelling, grammar and flow are all up for grab. Especially for the early chapters.

Berry Punch writes a strongly-worded letter to Princess Celestia speaking her (very crude) mind about some nuisances in Ponyville. What's wrong with a little drink once in a while? Huh?

Warning: this story has a lot of swearing, strong language and hints of mature themes.

Berry Punch and Berry Pinch are a happy mother and daughter that live in Ponyville. They have many friends there, and, despite being changelings, have managed to live a nice life of obscurity for many years.

But when Berry Pinch finally reaches maturity, she learns that, rather than feeding off of love, she gives it.

How will this new revelation effect the citizens of Ponyville, and more importantly, Berry Pinch herself?

Berryshine is a simple mare from a simple town, and she has a simple wish.

A break.

Just one little holiday to recharge the old batteries, a nice, relaxing trip to someplace new, like maybe a reindeer town. Unfortunately, a 'minor' mishap up North means her train is commandeered for Shining Armour and Cadence's royal mission... with Berryshine still on it.

But hey, it's not like she needs to get caught up in anything, right? After all, the real heroes of Equestria are there to take care of business, and they never make mistakes.

Right?

After Twilight’s coronation all the girls go to the bar to have some drinks. Unfortunately Celestia can’t hold her liquor.

Due to a typo on her permit to build a new barn, and the meddling of a recalcitrant bureaucrat, Applejack is stuck running a bar, at least until Mayor Mare gets back to town. So sit down and have a drink in Ponyville's least likely watering hole!
