The Piano Man has spent the last month in captivity, forced to play the piano as part of The Great and Powerful Trixie's traveling show. Now he's free, and recovering under the care of the Equestrian monarchy while Trixie awaits trial for her crimes.
All is not well, however. The Piano Man has a long road of recovery ahead, and all the time he must compete with overbearing carers, his own mental trauma, and even discrimination from members of Equestria's unicorn supremacist subculture.

This story is the kinda (can't stress that part enough) better-written sequel to 'The Piano Man'. Because the first story involved some rather dark scenes, I have included a helpful catch-up in the first chapter - so if you have no interest in reading a dark story, then you can ignore the first piece and skip straight ahead to this one.
'The Piano Man: Act II' is most certainly not a dark story, and neither is it sad. The sad tag is in place for scenes in which I reference the previous installment, and nothing else.

The absolutely amazing cover image was created by the even more amazing WIL_I_ZIN, (deviantART) who is just... just awesome, for helping out.

As one of Equestria's more popular writers, you relish the chance to get away and work on your newest romance novel and some side projects, when you meet a particular yellow pegasus who happens to be a fan of your work and oddly enough, you're a fan of hers as well... She just wishes you weren't, because "It's so embarrassing..."

And here it is, the last in my "Mane 6" stories, By a Fireplace! This story, like all the others, takes place during all the others and has its own little niche in the timeline. I've had a lot of questions about the continuity of my stories, but please bare with me. I've got a plan, a timeline, and graphs.

Anyway, about the story itself... Hmm... Well, nothing really special or no warning I should post... This should be a pretty tame story, but if there's a development even I didn't expect, I'll make sure to put it here.

Well, enjoy!

Diablo Crossover.

The Archangel of Justice destroyed the Worldstone to spare Humanity the corruption Baal infected it with. The force of its death knell shatters Mount Arreat and sends Tyrael hurtling across the endless planes of reality. He falls upon a world untouched by Angel or Demon, far from the sight of the High Heavens. So far, in fact, that he fears he will not be reborn from the Crystal Arch.

Wounded and near death, hope appears in the form of two strange creatures bearing the power of night and day.

Tyrael now faces a time of recovery as his power slowly heals within a body fashioned for him by his saviours. Justice Incarnate tastes for the first time the life of a mortal, and it is a strange, confusing experience .He has been left in the care of one Twilight Sparkle to learn of this world.

After all, where better to find peace and harmony than Ponyville?

Act I - The Root of Evil
Act II - ????????
Act III - ???????
Act IV - ???????

What happens, happens. I think that is one of the rules of Causality as stated by the late, great Douglas Adams. It is a pretty important rule and I use it to guide me through life, no matter what goes on in it. So, when I was driving to an out of town job and found myself in another world, I did my best to take everything in stride.

I would be the first to say the adjustment is not easy. Especially, when the first thing you do is make yourself a pony distrusted, disliked and defamed by some national heros. Thinking about that, I think I have to invoke another Douglas Adams quote. "Don't Panic."

This is the result of me getting bored one day and starting writing. Now that I got a bit of it done, I wouldn't mind honest opinions, and flame away if you feel the need. I have thick skin.

As you might notice, there are a few chapters with a box at the top. These are the ones that my editor and I went through again, and hopefully improved. I'll refrain from changing plot but spelling, grammar and flow are all up for grab. Especially for the early chapters.

You have been through the worst, you have lost someone dear to you, you have lost the ability to walk, and yet you still move on. Why? Maybe because it's the right thing to do, maybe because you want to know what's ahead of you. Maybe you want to know someone that loves you, someone that would care for you, and someone that would die for you. Maybe you search for redemption to have a better life? Or be the life of the party? Maybe you could give back to the world, and help others instead of party till you just can't party anymore? Someone somewhere must have said, "You are who you choose to be." Maybe because of your circumstances you have been given another chance? Maybe a chance that allows you to do better, to follow the same path, or maybe even do both?
You decide.
(Second Person fic. My first fic as well! But it is true, the reader does decide. And upon the ideas of the many readers on this site. I will try to construct chapters based upon those opinions.)

This story is a sequel to Horns, Hooves, and Fur

It's been four years since Jace and I defeated Insanity. In those four years, multiple things have come to pass. While the world is purged of Insanity, that doesn't mean that the world is cleansed of all evil...

A new threat is looming on the horizon like the everlasting Sun. However, this one... is one to destroy at all cost, and it is crucial that Jace and I must rid the world of this evil, and stay away from its temptations by any means necessary.

Otherwise... when you stray too far into the shadows... the darkness can swallow you whole....

*Sequel to Horns, Hooves, and Fur - Told in first person by both Jace AND Praxis; POVs will alter every chapter.*

*Others: Since I can only select 5 characters at max, I will have the "others" character box checked because there are more characters in the story. So expect other characters, ladies and gentlemen.

Welp, here's the sequel. Me and Craimer can't thank any of you enough for the support. We really hope that you will enjoy this, even though we think it might not be too good. We've actually been waiting to take a crack at this, to be honest. So... here goes nothing.

Traveling with Discord is anything but average, especially when you've got some mental baggage.
Your best hope is to go with the flow, and keep the show on the road.

(Beware:Cursing in this fic.)
(Beware:Chapters are prone to radical changes.)
(~Don't get me started on those dream sequences.~)
(Chapters with (DANGER ZONE) are being rewritten. Read at your own risk.)

Cenes Hallern has seen better days. Jobless, carless, moneyless, overweight, and now a hermit, he isn't in the best of shape. Will the arrival of the princess of the night help turn his life around?
Previously part of Ponyfall, now an independent fic. Please read before insta-down voting, because doing that helps no one. If you have a specific concern with it, talk to me in the comments. I very much welcome constructive criticism. Emphasis on constructive.

This might get a revamp. After a lot of self forgiveness, I look back at it and wonder how people who read it see me. For future reference, I am much less of a nutter than I portray myself here. (at least I hope so >_>)

This story is a sequel to Post Nuptials

In the aftermath of the wedding, Spike is bitter and avoiding everyone. Twilight's determined to find out what's bothering her charge, but she walks a very fine line when dealing with an emotionally distraught child.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash suspects something's wrong with Scootaloo, so she starts spending more time with her in hopes of picking the secret from her brain. As she begins to truly mentor the young filly for the first time ever, she begins to see the advantages to having a little sister.

And while all this is going on, Pinkie is struggling with some old family issues that have been brought to the surface, meaning she might have to confront her past at last.
