Meet Daymos. He's just like any other pony in Ponyville.

He works.

He plays.

He has bodies in his basement.

Okay, maybe he's not like any other pony.

But he's only trying to help.

He's a killer with a conscience and murderer with morals.

So if you end up on his table... You probably deserve what's coming.

Author's Note: Okay, this is going to take a while... I have a HUGE story planned for this thing and it's going to take a while to write it all. But I feel like if I write like 3000+ words a week, I can make some headway on it. Now, about the story. It's not exactly a crossover; it's more of an 'inspired by'. One day, I started wondering how a Dexter-esque pony would play out and this spawned. I wanted to submit it to Equestria Daily... But I kept feeling like their requirements were so arbitrary and restricting. I almost dropped it because of all the tiny little nitpicks. So, here you are. Unabridged, unabashed, unedited. Enjoy.

Princess Celestia tires of constantly being surrounded by decorum, deference, and formality, and decides to take a day off from being Princess. But visiting Ponyville incognito is harder than she expects. Will she be able to fit in and make friends without blowing her cover?

One night, after returning from her first and worst date ever, Twilight Sparkle decides to put dating on the very bottom of her 'what-to-do' list. Upon hearing that, Spike strongly disagrees and decides to change her mind with a little more than few words.

Will he manage to rekindle the yearning for romance in his long life best friend or will he fail? Read to find out!

Many thanks to: YourNeighborhoodAlicorn and MythrillMoth for pointing out some of the most glaring mistakes which helped this story become even better! Kudos to both of you, I'll reflect on that information and try to become even better at writing!

A/N: The original idea of this story as well as the art for cover belong to Lisboa.

On a night of storms, when the winds were whipping and the rain was pounding against his window, Pennington never expected to have anypony come knocking at his door. Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined it to be a shivering, waterlogged blue-and-silver mare, in need of a roof over her head and a way of earning a few bits.

To Pennington, taking in Trixie as a tenant in his home seemed like nothing, but as the two of them worked with one another more and more, something seemed to grow between the two of them... Something blossomed in their hearts that neither of them had ever felt before.

Until the day Pennington's world came to a stop. Until the day his life seemed to shatter.

((A prequel to "Happy Adventuring, Twilight!" The inspiration for this came to mind on Hearts and Hooves Day. Personally, I always thought that Trixie had a lot more to her than was ever shown in her episodes, and this is an effort on my part to show a little bit of her story.))

Suri Polomare had every reason to be confident. A little theft here, a little deception there, and Fashion Week was as good as hers.

Too bad she didn't think about the long-pressured conscience of a certain timid assistant.

Inspired by the artwork of muffinshire.

Edit: So I've been told this story was featured. That's fantastic and I love you all for it. For srs.

A refined mare fresh out of high school and a dropout following her dreams find themselves forced to spend a lot of time together.

With the help of a meddling psychology tutor and their new classmates, can they find what they've been looking for?

A continuation after 'Three's a Crowd', Fluttershy and Pinkie stay to take care of the sick Discord. Unfortunately, Fluttershy has to leave to get more medical supplies. That leaves Discord to be watched by an enthusiastic Pinkie Pie. It doesn't go as bad as both would have thought.

Rate Teen for one or two questionable jokes.

Rainbow Dash accidently pranks Princess Celestia. Her life is basically over.

Sometimes I just hated going to school with all of those stupid foals. None of them were as pretty or awesome as I was back then. They all thought that I was really mean to them, but what did they know?

At least, that's what I thought at the time. One day I had to have a talk with Ms. Cheerilee about it, and I didn't like what she had to say...
