Cheerilee has a terrible little secret, one that she knows may cost her her job and reputation; she knows that it will be discovered one day, and she knows what that means.

But she just can't stop.

Contains linguistic sadism, grotesque grammar, bad teaching and Cheerilight.

Twilight Sparkle flagrantly abuses her Come-To-Life spell, and learns a little bit about love in the process. Also, puns.

Now with actual cover art, thanks to the generous SuddenlyFerrets!

Now with a Spanish translation by Spaniard Kiwi!

The real Nightmare Moon has returned during Nightmare Night, and she plans to get revenge on Twilight Sparkle. However, she hasn't been aware of any events past her demise. Or the secret feelings a certain mare has that she's hated for over two years.

Some Canterlot entertainers aren't just musicians... and some ponies fall in love with them anyways.

When one of Equestria's most popular cellists appears at Twilight's birthday party, it's just another gig for Octavia, but a shock for Twilight and the rest of the party-goers. She arrives, wishes Twilight a happy birthday, wows them with her beautiful music, wows them with her musical beauty, and doesn't leave until after everypony else has left. So when a few ponies suggest that this 'entertainer' might be more than just a musician... some eyebrows are raised, but nothing more. Twilight is beyond reproach, after all, and Octavia can earn her living however she wants. When she sticks around Ponyville, however, it becomes a slightly different story - Twilight is romantically-naive, after all, and Octavia is... most certainly not.

The romance of Twilight Sparkle, Celestia's protege, and Octavia van Clef, Canterlot's most famous entertainer.

Rated 'Teen'. Per FimFiction's rating guidelines, this story contains some 'more adult themes', but has no 'graphically adult content'. Rated primarily for sexually suggestive material, but also (in later chapters) alcohol use and adult language.

Based off an odd storystorming session of mine, Trixie finds herself on the difficult path in the rain when things worsen as she encounters a Changeling beast that attempts to harm her in her stolen image. However, she also encounters her perceived nemesis Twilight Sparkle, but discovers that maybe vengeance isn't what she needs.

Using artistic license on the Changeling involved (I don't know if they all can do magic, but for the sake of the story, this one can), "Wide Gray Sky" is an experimental story working with the silent and nameless variants where there is no dialogue and the characters are unnamed to put more emphasis on their actions, gestures, and so on. An oddity considering my general dislike of Trixie, but ultimately, a good short story to flesh out in the end.

Before anyone asks, I'm not a Twilight/Trixie (or "Twixie"-that sounds like a candy bar) shipper, although I have read some decent Twixie works. This is just how the story developed. Funny where stories lead, huh?

Even the toughest of us have emotions. When a certain cyan daredevil is feeling under the weather, Twilight ventures to help Rainbow out of her rut, and possibly gain more than she had hoped for.

Twilight Sparkle is fed up of her unrequited love for Rainbow Dash. She has decided that the time has come to reveal the passion she has kept hidden for so long - but how? There is only one sane, logical way to do this.

She must become a cloud.

Nothing can go wrong.

Twilight has an experiment planned, and it centres on Rainbow Dash.

As anxious as she is, Dash really has no right to complain.

It was her idea after all.
