It has been a peaceful few years under the reign of Princess Twilight Sparkle. Ponies are happy. Equestria is progressing. New technologies have appeared, including the first fixed-wing planes. The first intercontinental flights now soar across Equestria, allowing long-distance friends and family to meet up for the first time without an arduous journey or fancy magic.

Earth Ponies are not meant to fly. Rind Watermelon knows this—and it terrifies him—but he will go with his fiancée Smoldering Ember to meet her family in Kiria, realm of the Kirins. It is only a twenty-hour flight away. He just has to look out the window, and ignore that he is in a metal tube hurtling through the sky on flimsy wings.

And there is something on the wing.

Every Kirin dreads the day they get a B...

Homes razed. Land scorched. Lives lost.

In the wake of great tragedy, Queen of the Kirin Rain Shine must make a fateful choice.

Whether she wants to or not.

This story was written for the 2023 'Sovereign Rulers 4' contest, using the prompt Rain Shine / Loyalty.

Typical firefighter day in Canterlot. Everything is boring and routine as long as there are no curious Kirin tourists nearby. They are burning with interest and have no idea about firefighters. For damages, please contact the officials.

A silent kirin gets trapped in quicksand. She can't scream for help.

(Takes place some time after all the kirin went into the Stream of Silence.)

This story is a sequel to Nightmare Night

Valentine's Day comes every February, romantic partner or not. Singles have Singles Awareness Day which just seems like . . . anyway, Cinder Glow might have an unusual interest in conversation hearts but she also hasn't got a partner, so what better way to celebrate an almost-holiday than spend some time with a friend?

There are plenty of things on Netflix that aren't romantic, and it turns out that conversation hearts and popcorn are a decent mix.

In the end, Christmas is a day like any other.

Unless your boyfriend is unlike any other.

This story is a sequel to Portrait of a Kirin

Cinder Glow seemed interested in human holidays, so I decided that I'd see how she felt about Spirit Halloween and how she felt about participating in a human tradition.

A long time ago, Equestria was the most prosperous nation in the world. Princess Twilight Sparkle's reign was an age of harmony where creatures of all shapes and sizes lived together. But then, one day, the ponies all disappeared, and so did magic.

In the centuries that followed, the creatures all went their separate ways, but a young changeling named Solifuge dreams of recreating Twilight's utopia. When a kirin named Moonbow Shine crashes her hive's anniversary festival, she's the only changeling willing to talk to her, and together they set out on an adventure that will uncover the secrets of the past...

Or, My Little Pony: A New Generation AU where the Earth ponies are changelings, the unicorns are kirin, and the pegasi are hippogriffs. Inspired by this art by Scribbling Potato. Cover by Little Tigress.
