An act of goodwill by Applejack suddenly leads to her entry into the first annual "Miss Ponyville Pageant." Determined to help their friend pull a victory, Rarity and Fluttershy give the work horse a crash course in in the finer aspects of lady-like behavior. But how bad do they want her to win? More importantly, who's gong to take care of AJ's hat?

As the Cakes make a very special gingerbread house the act reminds them of their lives together; hinting at those they loved, challenges they faced, and the struggles that continue even after lovers say "I do"...

My Little Dashie take, with Pinkie Pie :D

On an extraodinary day, I find an extraodinary box in front of my house! I open it, and who could be lying there - but Pinkie Pie!

I had read My Little Dashie. True, it DID *sorta* make me act all sappy, but for this to rehappen - but to me! And with everypony's favourite pony - Pinkie Pie!

Little did I know, that picking up the box, and making up my mind to raise Pinkie Pie - or should I say, Pinkamena Diane Pie - was the exact definition of "biting off more than I can chew"

Who knows what disaster is about to strike Ponyville and its innocent citizens? Who strikes fear in the heart of evildoers who bring harm to the quaint quirky town? The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well knows...

When Pinkie Pie decides to remain the sole Mare-Do-Well, her choice ends up having both positive and negative repercussions for herself and for her town. An ongoing series about her challenges in keeping both her regular life as well as her hero alter ego.

UPDATE: After a two-year hiatus, I have returned with the next chapter. To not keep the readers waiting, I have divided it into small sections and posting them as I finish. Due to obvious reasons with so many things that have happened in the canon universe of FiM, this story is now under "Alternate Universe". Some pieces of the current canon will be included but others will be left out. Please bear with me, yes?

Don't expect quality from this fic.

Being a creator means creating your own world, where you pour your love and heart into it.

In a stormy night, after a strange event in her office, Lauren Faust gets teleported into the magical land of Equestria. The land... that she created. What will she do now? How will she return to the reality from her own imagination? Will she even be willing to leave?

Discord has been given a second chance to change his chaotic ways after he is transformed back to his baby self after he is defeated by the elements of harmony. The main 6 has the task of taking care of him until he has fully proven himself to the princess he has changed his ways.

Discord is once again loose, but after using his randomness to find some interesting information on some strange phenomenon in another world that has to do with an island and a bunch of humiliating events, the crazy spirit of disharmony and chaos comes up with a new, sick, twisted, disturbing plan that involves capturing 20 of the most popular ponies (and three non-ponies) and forcing them to play a new game while the rest of Equestria watches in horror (or most likely secret amusement and possibly envy of not being picked themselves).

What does the rotten host Discord have in mind for our 20 unfortunate selections? Well, looks like you'll have to wait and find out! Maybe, just maybe, if Discord is feeling generous, the winner of his new "game" will get a grand prize. Everyone pick a character to root for and let's get it on!
