Today is Princess Twilight Sparkle’s 500th birthday, and her most faithful student, an earth pony with a familiar name, can’t wait to celebrate!

- Many thanks to my faithful Pre-Reader and all around super-duper best pony, Blood Lord. Go read his story, too!
- This was written during the season 3 hiatus of MLP:FiM.

When evil cultists are out kidnapping innocent ponies to summon their dark god, it's up to Princess Celestia and Twilight Sparkle to stop them! Armed with guns, sharp pointy things, magic up the wazoo, and plenty of ammo, the two are ready to kick some flank and chew bubblegum!

And guess who just ran out of bubblegum?

Collaboration with the great and quite handsome alexmagnet, who you all should go check out and stuff.

One night, just like that, Celestia realizes she's going to die in less than twenty-four hours.

It's been two months since Twilight and Big Macintosh started dating, and what a wonderful two months it's been. As their relationship blooms, Twilight finds out through Applejack that not all of the Apple family may be keen on a relationship that includes one of their own kin, and a unicorn. Worried about their future together, Twilight asks Big Macintosh for the biggest favor she can think of...to visit his entire family, and see if they can't break old traditions.

This is the sequel to Sparkling Cider, my first fan-fiction. It isn't necessary to have read Sparkling Cider to understand Old Traditions, but it certainly wouldn't hurt!

Thanks to all my followers who have been waiting for the sequel, you guys rock!

Twilight rushes home one evening due to a horribly embarrassing event that has just transpired in her life. When Spike finally gets her to talk about it, she tells him of her newly found crush, and how she may have messed up any chance she had at a relationship. With the advice from her number one assistant and friend Applejack, can Twilight fix what happened and get a second chance with her crush?

First fanfic I've written, and a one shot at that. A sequel is in the works if this goes over well!

When Pinkie reunites with Sombra in Canterlot after going on a mission for the princesses, she's surprisingly distant with him. Not sure what to make of her behavior, Sombra tries to figure out the reason behind her actions.

It isn't until a discussion with her friends does he realize why she was so upset.

This is supposed to correlate with the "Reflections" arc in the MLP comics, taking place comics 17-20. This was written after 18's release and is correct with the information up to 19, which has not been released as of now.

Also, side story to this fic here:
The Not-So-Normal Adventures of King Sombra and Pinkie Pie

If you wish to read the comics, here are the available links for the arcs involved.

We are hated, disrespected, hunted, killed, banished.

We aren't respected as living beings.

So what are we gonna do? We're gonna fight for our lives.

We are changelings, and we deserve respect.

Twilight punches Flash Sentry in the face.

Several times, actually.

Everypony crowds around a stallion that waits on a corner. Why was he just sitting there. He's been there for weeks. No matter what happens, no matter what the ponies do or say, the stallion won't move.

They call him the Stallion that can't be moved.
