Things haven’t exactly gone well for Trixie. Ever since the Alicorn Amulet incident she has seen her own fortunes shrink while Twilight's continues to soar. Now Twilight is an Alicorn and Trixie feels left behind. But Trixie has a plan; one Discord is all too willing to aid her in. For a price.

Note: (Immortal Twilight)
Takes place shortly after the defeat of Tirek.

Discord has been reformed for quite some time now, and so far, everything seems to be going fine.

Fluttershy doesn't think so, however, so she sets off to talk to him.

After all, what are friends for?

Submission for the Everfree Northwest convention writing contest. If you like my work, consider donating to my Ko-Fi.

The dream world is filling with chaos that even Luna, the Princess of the Night, cannot control. However for some strange reason, Fluttershy is the only pony that can travel between the two worlds. But much to her horror, Zecora discovers that it is a link in Fluttershy's past that can either be the lock that'll save them, or the key to its release...

The Bearers of the Elements of Harmony must investigate Fluttershy's link to the mysterious force attacking the dream world before the chaos leaks all over Equestria!

This is my first piece, I hope you enjoy it.

Discord is reformed and now on the path towards becoming a productive member of society. To help him stay on the straight and narrow, Fluttershy begins to write letters to him, with the two quickly becoming pen pals. With their sharing of letters, Fluttershy begins to learn more about the conundrum known as Discord, while Discord learns what it truly means to be a friend.

Collaboration with the totally awesome Flint Sparks! If you enjoyed the story, then definitely check this guy out!

A talk. Face to face. Draconeques to pony. Friend to friend. It shouldn't be a problem, right? Well, maybe not why you have the word shy in your name. To the backstory to the present, what to say on a date, and what to do. Well, improve or get advice Fluttershy! I am just a narrator.

Authors Note: Idea I couldn't get out of my head. I hate myself for writing this. Kat might too.
BTW: Bit of Crossover. In a way.

Fluttershy's father is captured by the villianous Discord, Phantom of the Opera! Can she save him while being pursued by the handsome and charming Prince Blueblood? What if she were to take her fathers place? Ponies meet Phantom of the Opera with a splash of Beauty and the Beast!

After contracting whatever disgusting virus the Tatzlwurm was carrying, Discord discovers that a runny nose and hacking cough are the least of his worries. In his weakened state, his powers have stopped working! Thankfully, he's in good hooves with Fluttershy there to help put things in perspective.

Fluttershy has just successfully reformed Discord, but another evil lurks in the shadows. Princesses Celestia and Luna has called upon the Mane Six to team up with Discord in the battle of their lives against a terrible darkness spreading from the south. Discord is more than reluctant to go, and Fluttershy takes it on herself to convince him to join them on their quest. She soon finds out about Discord's dark and tortured past, while forming a romantic relationship with him. Will she be able to save Equestria and her new found friend, or will she have to sacrifice one for the other?

Discord's reformation has left him both elated and confused. He didn't really know how to be anything other than a villain. Wandering around the castle one day, he experiences a flashback of his life before he became the villain, when he was just a silly teenager in love with a woman far out of his league. His flashback paralyzes his body and causes him to whack his head off Celestia's throne, concussing him and leaving him bedridden until he recovers. He requests a visit with his only friend, the pony who reformed him, Fluttershy. As Fluttershy tends to Discord's wound, Discord starts to feel a strange tug in his heart that he thought he'd never feel again. It doesn't make any sense to the draconequuis, but then again.... What's the fun in making sense?

What if Discord had not been turned to stone by the Mane 6? What if he had escaped?
It is three years later and the Mane 6 have moved on with their lives, all except Fluttershy, who cannot get the draconequus out of her mind. The others are happy in their new and comfortable lives, until their enemy returns and will only relieve Equestria of his havoc in exchange for a bride.

This has been adapted into an audio series.
