Twilight Sparkle and her assistant Spike. Two names that cause Canterlot Castle to shake. Between her bizarre experiments and excentric personality, the unicorn becomes an extreme annoyance to everypony, especially when she starts fixating on a 'Nightmare Moon'. Spike is also a nuisance, often stuffing his face with random things and causing explosions randomly.

Exhausted with the chaos they keep causing, Celestia sends Twilight and Spike to Ponyville at the onset of the Summer Sun Celebration, hoping that the calmer environment will help them calm down and make friends.

It has the reverse effect.

In this story Twilight acts like Invader Zim and Spike like Gir.

Princess Cadance and Prince Shining Armor ask their mutual bedmate Chrysalis to bring them coffee. What they get seemingly defies the laws of known physics and is likely unfit for consumption. This doesn’t stop them.

Based off a noodle incident out of Breaking in to Avoid Being Broken that seemed too be good to be simply left as that.

Thanks to Tired Old Man, Nova Quill/Firimil, and
Steel Resolvefor their edits and suggestions and, of course, coffee.

Flurry Heart doesn’t want to be smothered by her parents. Shining Armor doesn’t want to be stuffed full of changeling eggs. When a rogue bug queen makes a power play in the heart of their kingdom, they’ll both be forced to confront their fears the only way they know how: dysfunctionally.

An entry for the “Shining Armor is a Terrible Dad” contest.

Through a convoluted series of events, Chrysalis must save Equestria from a new chaos god, as well as several legally distinct new foes.

Cozy Glow, Tirek, Chrysalis, all are names feared by many. However, after their defeat, memories of them have started to fade.

Not Twilight's though, no she's thought of the incident every day since she ascended to the throne, and today she had a very disquieting thought.

"Didn't Discord say he could see while like that? What about them?"

So she asked and so he answered

Flurry Heart is going to have a sleepover. There will be colts there. Shining Armor has feelings about this.

Done as part of this contest.

Now at that 'tricky' age of nine, a moody Flurry Heart is left with her aunt Twilight for the afternoon while Shining Armour goes off to take care of... something. Their time together is more eventful than either one expects...

So I heard there was some kind of Shining Armour Is A Terrible Father Contest on, and I wanted in.

Let's see how we do!

Pincer is a changeling, a proud soldier of Queen Chrysalis. After the failed invasion of Canterlot, he finds himself trapped and at the mercy of Princess Celestia's Royal Guard. Believing that Celestia sees his species as nothing but soulless monsters, he prepares himself for the worst. The weeks crawl by, marked by an endless series of questions he will not answer for fear of endangering his friends and family at The Hive. As his nerves wear down and his interrogators learn just how ruthless he thinks they are, they have nothing to report but his belief that they will kill and destroy his kind without mercy.

Celestia steps in to prove him wrong, and what Pincer learns leaves him questioning everything he has ever known — but also gives him hope for what he'd never thought possible.

Now with a TVTropes page.

This story is a sequel to Steamboat to Nowhere

Following his arrival in Ponyville, Thomas awoke the next day, ready to continue on his way to Tall-Tale once he was all packed up, and while he received good news from Happy Storage World that his truck, trailer, everything in them, and a little bonus surprise were all ready and waiting for him, and his Family were relieved that he was ok following the steamboat accident, he receives bad news from Tall-Tale, and now no longer has a job waiting for him. Dejected, he contemplates what he's going to do next, when an old family friend reaches out to him, and says he wants to offer him a more permanent job. Intrigued, Thomas goes and meets the man, one Mr. Edward Strauss, at his home outside of Ponyville, and he offers Thomas a job in the Smokey Mountains in Western Equestria, near the town of Spirit Water Forest. After some deliberation, Thomas decides to accept the job, little knowing that he's about to embark on the journey of a lifetime

(This story picks up immediately after "Steamboat to Nowhere" leaves off, and will still contain some references to the horrors of Thomas's life while he was still addicted to drugs, and encounters with his demons, but nothing too explicit. Story will also contain some mild profanity, as well as a scene of senseless destruction caused by a drunk driver, but aside from this, it'll be pretty normal, almost wholesome. Also, the later parts of this story, and the ones that follow, will draw heavy inspiration from the lore of Great Wolf Lodge, the 2022 animated movie "The Great Wolf Pack: A Call to Adventure", and the sequel TV show, "Tales of the Great Wolf Pack". I would have tagged it as such, but no tags for these exist yet)

This story is a sequel to Compassionate Compensation

Celestia has always considered herself a simple mare, in spite of her regal, demigod status, and there are few things that have brought her more joy than her dearest, most irate frenemy. Lingering outside a small gala she organized, she keeps her hooves crossed that her plus-one takes her carefully laid bait and joins her.
