This story is a sequel to The Republic

Sequel to The Republic.

After peace negotiations fail, the Lunar Republic falls back from Ponyville and into Appleoosa. Of the Mane Six, Luna's supporters decide to stay in Ponyville while Celestia unleashes the Royal Guard on the small town. The ensuing massacre leads to civil war, where Premier Luna uses her powers of state to build up an army to face Celestia's growing regime, the Solar Empire.

Through it all, Discord tries to protect Fluttershy from the brutality of the war by hiding the truth from her, and Twilight Sparkle begins a new religion recognizing Celestia as a divine being.

Sorry for the poor description.

Luna has always been the watcher of dreams for her ponies, and caretaker of their private fears. Over time, she has come to see many of the ponies of Equestria feel oppressed and downtrodden, and yet she can find no reason for it. Everything is perfect in Equestria. Or so it seems until Luna discovers a secret history Celestia has tried to bury - along with a series of philosophical manuscripts and political manifestos.

Apple Bloom is one of the many ponies feeling trapped in her life, and this manifests itself in her dreams. Luna, inspired by the ancient philosophies from Celestia's forbidden library helps Apple Bloom through her problems by taking her on as a student. Apple Bloom, true to form, decides to share these ideas with her friends.

Little do they know the repercussions...

Something I've been dabbling in for the last few months. First pony fic, and - quite frankly - it's rather unrefined. Mostly me exploring philosophy from pony's points of view. I don't know if the Lunar Republic and Solar Empire are "fanon" material with their own respective histories, so I just made my own rather than research it. Sorry to any fans of that AU if I've stepped on toes. Also, I'm trying to keep this politically neutral; that is, I'm not trying to make the Republic or Empire, or their respective philosophies, the "good guys" of the story. Think of this as a crack fic, if it helps.

This fic centers on the rise of the Lunar Republic and its secession from Equestria. I plan on making a sequel fic which focuses on Celestia's transition into Empress of the Solar Empire, probably lamely titled "The Empire". Anyway, tell me what you think. Really let me have it. Also, I wasn't sure what category to put this in; it's not really dark, but it's not much else either. Any tips there would be appreciated.

Since the Timberwolf incident, Applejack hasn't been feeling well. She can't eat, she can't sleep and she's not sure why.

Little does she realize that she's suffering from the deadliest disease of all: love.

But who is she pining for?

This story is a sequel to I Love Ya to the Core

Spike finds himself on a game show hosted by Discord where he has to choose between three mysterious bachelorettes, not realizing that this is a ploy to settle a love triangle he has not been aware of. Who will Spike choose?
Hearts might be broken and secrets might be spilled.
This is a "sort of" follow-up to "Bride of Discord." Not really a sequel, but is set in the same universe.

Cover Image by WolfSpirit1292, who also adapted this into a comic!

After being shipwrecked in Illyrimane, Applejack disguises herself as a stallion so she can make her own way into the world and serves the Duke Spike, who sends her to woo the Lady Rarity for him. Applejack is soon shocked to discover that the unicorn has fallen for her instead!

How will she untie this tangled knot? More importantly, how will she win the dragon she loves when he thinks she's a boy?

Based on William Shakespeare's play Twelfth Night.

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

*6-16-2017 Edit, added Rainbow Dash tag because it triggered knighty.*

One night at a get-together with her friends, Applejack learns that not only do her friends find her brother attractive, they've already got dibs on who will try to court the stallion. If they fail, the next mare in line will take her place. With the challenge set, will any of her friends succeed in seducing the stallion? Not if Applejack has anything to say about it!

With a special thanks to The Abyss for being my drinking buddy, editor, proof reader, and whatever else I'm sure he did when I was too intoxicated.

Discord, Luna, Sombra, and Celestia are the best of friends when they were small. They played and laughed together. They even got in trouble together.

But something happened to take that all away.

Now, they're battling so their kingdoms can survive. Fight after fight, blood splattered everywhere. But no matter the battle, they ask the same question.

"What happened to us?"

Fearless optimist Celestia sets off on an epic journey -- teaming up with rugged, yet charming mountain man Sombra and his loyal friend, Ursa Minor -- to find her sister Luna whose midnight powers have trapped the kingdom of Canterlot in eternal darkness. Encountering gloomy conditions, mystical trolls and a hilarious bat named Star Swirl, Celestia and Sombra battle the night in a race to save the kingdom.

Based off the plot of Frozen. Art isn't mine.

When famine strikes Equestria it is changed from a place of abundance and happiness into a place of scarcity and destitution. And see how one act of kindness can change anypony for the better. (Based off of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables.)
