Fluttershy has come a long way since Twilight came to Ponyville, but she’s still very shy compared to most ponies.

But who would have thought that a big time star would be shy as well?

A gift for BlackWater with thanks for SOOOO many things.

There was only one explanation. For all of it. All of the strange, erratic behavior. Her irrational fear of the sun. Her nocturnal habits of locking herself in in the dark and closing all the blinds. Wearing her sunglasses everywhere, even inside! It was time to invest in some silver, garlic, and a wooden stake.

Octavia has a musical history and a side to herself she'd rather not have to explain outside of Ponyville. Inside Ponyville... well, everything was fine until she spotted Vinyl Scratch. What was she doing here?

Don't panic, Octavia! Don't freak out, don't lose your mind, don't....
Oh well.
(And check out Goombasa's excellent dramatic reading!)
Cover by Page Turner.

Vinyl and Octavia, despite living together, have never been seen at the same time. Is there a reasonable explanation for this? Or, could there be a deceptive reason?

Thanks to TheArtrix for the cover art.

Randomreader-001 (webshoter) did a fanfic reading of this. You can listen to is here.

Octavia and Vinyl have been dating for months, but neither has had a chance to introduce their significant other to their families. Vinyl always dodges the issue, but when Octavia is insistent, they have a fight. This leaves Vinyl with no other option than to have Octavia over to meet her parents.

Maybe she should have told Octavia who she really was?

Dramatic reading by Goombasa available here.

Now in Russian, translated by Hopeless.

After an eventful meeting with Vinyl's Mother, Octavia and Vinyl need to get away from Canterlot in a hurry and end up visiting Octavia's estranged father. Who is a legitimate and upright business-stallion.

[This is not seriously written. Do not take it seriously.]

Inspired by the story Vinyl's Heritage.

Yes, there will be guns being used by ponies. No, not in the way you're probably thinking, but still guns yes. Don't like guns? Then don't read this story silly filly.

A lone vampire bat sneaks through the mirror portal and ends up in the human world. Instead of apples, it now craves something far richer. And unfortunately for Sunset Shimmer, she's its next snack.

Sunset can't remember any of her activities past sundown. The light hurts not just her eyes, but burns her skin. And she's thirsty.

So very thirsty.

It's up to the Rainbooms to save Sunset from herself before she drinks the whole city dry. Too bad Twilight Sparkle is her primary target.

Thanks to Saro0fd3monz for the inspiration!

Now with a TVTropes page!

Now with a French translation!

After the events in Play For Me and Blueblood's Pets Octavia has a few quirks. She stares at things that aren't there, refuses to eat, hoards candles, and won't so much as look at her cello. Vinyl Scratch is doing her best to look after her.

Blueblood has an inherent love for the orchestra, but he does not care to attend the symphony. He would much rather have private performances. Sequel to Play for Me.

Octavia has no idea where she is. She has no contact with the outside world. There is no hope of escape. There is only one instruction: "Play".
