Written for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Group's April Fools contest. Posted because it's ridiculous and today is a good day to be silly. :D
Entered it into Bicyclette's Thousand Words Contest under the Experimental category.

Fluttershy is a private mare. She keeps to herself when she can afford to, much preferring the company of animals to ponies. She doesn't like to really say why that is. She doesn't know how to tell anypony what happened. She doesn't know how to explain it or even where to start.

She just wonders if anypony else has heard the singing too.

A fic I wrote in a burst of inspiration while listening to In Birdsong by Everything Everything. Prereading done by the tremendously talented Red Parade. Cover art by SymbianL.

We must have shared a womb.

Sometimes twins eat each other in the womb.

Warning: the following fic contains cannibalism. It is technically a spoiler, so proceed through all with caution.

While taking a break from helping Rarity sew uniforms in the workshop, Sweetie Belle meets a foal about her age. 

Originally written for the Quills and Sofas Random Acts of Kindness 24-hour Speedwrite. The prompt was "There are no strangers; only friends you haven't met."

Spoilers for the general plot and ending of the G5 movie.

The return of magic also caused the Crystal Empire to appear again, but two Crystal Ponies, banished from their homeland, wish to change that.
And now it's up to Sprout to stop them, save all of Equestria's magic, and accept that his family played a larger part in history than he would have enjoyed.

Written for the G5 Bingo Writing Contest. Prompts were "Sprout + is keeping a secret from + Sweets + Crystal Ponies + School for Gifted Unicorns".
Contains a silly plot, (intentionally) butchered history, and stereotypical Swedish/IKEA-ish proper names, mostly meaning that I added a bunch of unnecessary umlauts to vowels. =P I apologize to Prince Shining Armor, Princess Luna, and all Swedish people reading this. Also contains an actual IKEA name - Älvängen/Alvangen is/was a set of lamps, including a desk lamp.
Might do something else for the cover image later - right now it's nearly 1am and the deadline is upon me, so this needs to go out NOW.

The Elements of Harmony have freed Princess Luna from the clutches of Nightmare Moon, and she could not be more grateful to their bearers. For her first Hearth’s Warming since her return, Luna wishes to give each bearer a gift in thanks. However, having not spent any more time in Ponyville, she knows very little about them, and thus has no ideas on what to give them. 

Having regained her power to dreamwalk, Luna decides to search for inspiration in the Element bearers’ dreams, but upon her first foray into the Dream Realm, she finds someone she never would have expected.

Rainbow Dash and Applejack have finally admitted to themselves and each other what they always sort of knew, and are now a happy couple. The only step left is telling the rest of the Apple clan after a nice Hearth's Warming Dinner. However, newlyweds Big Macintosh and Sugar Belle have a big announcement of their own to make.

Which they do.

Kind of...

Written for Dreadnought for Jinglemas 2021. Prompt:

I'd love to see Applejack at the very least, and Scootaloo if the author could make it work.

Now with a reading by Admiral Stoic Rum!

The holidays are meant to be a time of holly jolly fun, spending time with friends and family, and celebrating the magic of friendship. You usually couldn't pay most ponies to take a work shift on Hearth's Warming. Redheart, of course, loves the Hearth's Warming shift. It's her favorite time of year, and she can spend it with the only friends and family she has: her patients.

But this particular Hearth's Warming might be different.

Written for NeirdaE for Jinglemas 2021

The manuscript was old, hidden in Maretime Bay's lighthouse for generations at the very least. At first glance, it appears to be a religious text, full of references to unknown places, unknown creatures, unknown rulers. But is there more to the manuscript than meets the eye? Can Maretime Bay's existence really be traced back to a single group of pilgrims seeking a new life? And why would these pilgrims have sought to escape from their princess, Twilight Sparkle?
