Apple Bloom was hopeful when Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo got their Cutie Marks.
But as she got older, the idea of remaining a blank flank forever became less of a mild fear and more of a disappointing reality. Now an adult and one of the few ponies in existence without a Cutie Mark, she has created a unique brand of study known as "blankology" in the hopes of uncovering the secret of her blank flank, as well as the blank flanks of other adult ponies.
Lately, her enthusiasm for her work has been slipping. Is it time for her to give up blankology?

Pinkie Pie really should have known better, some folks who could see were startled something fierce by her welcome wagon. That poor little filly had no idea what hit her.

And now she has to live with it.

Inspired by a scene from the story ...And it's freaking cold up here.

Gilda never chose to be born a carnivore. If she could, she'd become an herbivore like her pony friends. But her own biology has betrayed her morality: she has no choice but to eat meat for its nutrients. So she hunts zebras, the only feasible food for her. At least she will try to do it as humanely as possible.

Princess Twilight Sparkle wants Equestria to join the rest of the world and finally switch from measuring in hooves, pounds, and gallons to meters, kilograms, and liters. But not everypony is happy about her proposed change.

Now with dramatic reading. Thanks, scorpion1m!

Celestia must deal with sick and dying changelings showing up in Canterlot, and writes for help.

This story took 3rd place in the Iron Author contest at Everfree Northwest 2013, and was originally written in less than two hours.

The first chapter contains a revised/edited version, and the second chapter is the original text, exactly as submitted/judged (typos and all.) See the author's notes at the end of the story for the contest rules (as the contest-provided theme is a slight spoiler for the story.)

When Cadance comes to foalsit Twilight Sparkle, she finds the young filly playing a pretend game of cards with her stuffed animals. Curious, Cadance joins the game, only to find Twilight is far more serious about her betting than she lets on. Can she help Twilight learn what's really valuable?

Originally meant for the Writeoff Association's January contest, "All In" but quickly surpassed the word limit and was never entered. I really liked it though, and finished it anyway.

Spike accidentally break one of Twilight's telescopes, so Twilight decides to punish him. But what is the best way to punish him?

Warning: Depicts Twilight as a cruel pony. Kinda.

Do you need to know what texture an apple's skin has to be in order to be sure that it's ripe? There's an app. for that! Ever wondered how many apples it would take to fill the cement foundation of a skating rink? There's an app. for that too! Ever felt like having an adoracute hologram with orange freckles that you could summon at any moment to chat with you in a charming country accent? Well...

When Twilight Sparkle donates a bunch of crystalline "smart-watches" to the citizens of Ponyville, she unwittingly includes a free download of a holographic Applejack with each prototype. Now the entire town is enamored with utilizing their helpful little neighborhood apple pony. The only thing is... would the real Applejack approve of all this?
