Capper is invited to the Boutique, Rarity has a date, So what about Spike...Maybe? Spoiler? Wings? Movie?

Long ago, two enemies destroyed one another in a fight to the death. Their spirits sealed away for the past 500 years, until an expedition released them from their prisons.

One spirit possessed a stallion, while another possessed a ninja plushie, a plushie that will soon drag a colt named Button Mash into a demon hunting adventure. Great evil stirs, and it is up to Button Mash and his cuddly killer ninja plushie to stop it!

Story inspired by Checkered Ninja, a book/movie from my home country of Denmark.

While the setup is similar, the plot is different. If you ever get a chance to see the movie, or read the books, you totally should. If you can find some in your native language.

Sweetie Belle's job at the national radio station, Equestria Public Radio, had been a major success. Working her way up from newbie audio technician to host in just a few months, every show she did every weekend was just another joyous radio where she could share her interests with the world. Every weekend night, she would come on and serenade the world with her personal jazzy picks and talk to so many people about whatever interests or idiosyncrasies they had. The only thing was, no one knew it was Sweetie behind the mic. All they knew was Lady Luxury was more than willing to listen to each and every one of her viewers.

Spike was lonely after he came to terms with Rarity's lack of affection. Months and years pining after her and barely a hint of reciprocated affection. While on a year long trip around Equestria, Spike had a lot of time to think and after days and days of soul searching and consideration, he realized the affection he held for Rarity's little sister just bubbling under the surface. A long time friend and companion, he was conflicted, so he called in to his favourite radio show to ask for advice.

A sweet wholesome fic about Radio host Sweetie Belle and Lonely Listener Spike. A web of love and pseudonyms inevitably to be unraveled. Will love withstand the deception?

Rated T for innuendo, crude humor, and mild profanity.

It all started out as just another day for me as I strolled through the streets, nodding to the myriad of delicious equines passing by. However, none of these ponies piqued my interest as I craved the most delectable of Ponyville's delights. For this changeling's pallet hungers solely for the unique Perky Pink Parfait, but she's been acting weird lately. She's catching on, I'm sure of it! I know I should move on, this can only end badly, but I'm hopelessly addicted to the pony of my doom!

Continued due to popular demand! Now you can read the whole story as Shattered Dreams, the clueless changeling romeo, sits under judgement by Twilight and friends as they pick through his memories to see if he really is in love with Pinkie or just using her.

Warning: There are some dark themes, such as where do changelings come from. However, it is not meant to be a dark fic.

It is only tagged as Romance, because it has a bit of everything on both sides of the spectrum from sad to comedy.

I had tagged it gore since gore is present, but more hinted at, and kept to a minimum. Since I won't be making anyone hurl, or even squeamish, I went ahead and removed it.

I would have tagged it sex for really awkward comedic moments with sexual references. The best kind! But there's nothing serious enough to warrant a tag. Sorry guys the clop is over that way:

This is a collection of thirty twenty-eight short stories for the National Pony Writing Month I'm participating in.
Every story will be added as a new chapter, to create a big compilation of all the stories I write for it, and will be about different ponies, different locations and different adventures.
There could also be a variety in the length of the stories, depending on it how many ideas come to me while writing, but my general goal is to write 60,000 words, which means every story will have 2,000 words minimum.
I will add a description for each story below as soon as I have written it.

Note: The gore tag and the teen rating are only there because of the first story "Back from the Grave" and because this was the only way to getting it passed through moderation. All the other stories are suitable for "Everyone".

This story is a sequel to About Last Night

One month ago, Twilight Sparkle and Applejack got drunk and then got married.

Now Twilight's a princess, and the pair have to work on integrating that new aspect of it into their relationship. Add to that Spike's feelings on the matter and the fact that he's getting the attention of fillies his age, and Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash's relationship, maybe they're better off grabbing a few more drinks...

Discord has one friend. One. A single tie binding him to Equestria, a lone strand of pink tail hair keeping him in some sort of line. His interest in the world's welfare may exactly equal that of his friend's lifespan -- unless there's a next generation for him to adore. And so in the name of the realm's survival, Fluttershy is going to start dating, with Equestria's greatest expert in attracting ponies as her very reluctant prison-sentenced advisor. All Fleur has to do if she ever wants to come home again is get the world's most socially hesitant pony happily married off and pregnant, while constantly keeping Discord in the dark about what's truly happening.
