In simplest terms, Ascellal Regression is a rarely observed phenomenon where young pegasi show a distinct aptitude for flight from a very early age, but become less capable as they near adolescence. Not much is known about the condition, rare as it is, since fewer than one in one-hundred-thousand pegasi show signs of it. For the symptoms to be displayed by an alicorn is totally unheard of. And yet, fate persists.

Princess Flurry Heart, with gentle nurturing from her mother, came to reluctantly accept her lot in life. With occasional mood swings and fashion choices to vent her frustrations. Luckily, her father has his own ideas for overcoming the situation. Whether or not these ideas hold any merit, that remains to be seen.

My entry for the Shining Armor is a Terrible Dad 2024 Competition!

In a small cottage, nestled at the border of the Everfree Forest and the town of Ponyville, lives a mare named Fluttershy. A sweet-natured pegasus, she made it her life goal to ensure the safety and comfort of as many animals she could feasibly extend her care to. But a disproportionate amount of her time goes to making sure the wants and needs of her pet bunny, Angel, are met. There's more to him than meets the eye, though. More than Fluttershy could ever comprehend.

My entry for the Portal Transformations Contest I!

The Great and Powerful Trixie cares not for performative norms. She will go out, dazzle the crowd, and be utterly, flawlessly spectacular for every single show. No exceptions. Such is her skill, she doesn’t even need to practice her tricks beforehand.

Except, that is, when she performs with a lowly subordinate lovely assistant in the form of Starlight Glimmer, who believes it better to go through the performance several times in private. What a waste of time, the run up to a show should be spent preparing for curtseys and resting ones autographing hoof. What could possibly go wrong?

In the humble barn at Sweet Apple Acres, friends and family begin to assemble. Today is Applejack and Rainbow Dash’s wedding, and those in attendance expect a somewhat modest and subdued affair, considering the rustic aesthetic and calm surroundings.

Anypony foolish enough to actually believe that has clearly never met Applejack or Rainbow Dash. But it will definitely be a day to remember.

In a quiet corner of a nondescript pocket dimension, somewhere adjacent (and slightly to the left) of an unfathomable writhing tempest of antimatter, between an Ikea and the caged spirit of Asmodeus, exists a draconequus. He has thoughts he needs to put down onto paper, some strongly worded thoughts for an irksome purple princess.

This story is a sequel to On The Rocks

Clear blue seas, sandy white beaches, and absolute seclusion for miles around. After the nightmarish ordeal with Octavia’s parents, Vinyl couldn’t have picked a better place for the pair of them to let off some steam.

Or could she?

One-shot set several months after the end of On The Rocks, but is not canon!

This story is a sequel to Wonderbirds: Beneath the Abyss

'Calling Equestrial Rescue, this is General Dapper of the Indoneighsian Army. We have been assisting with the evacuation of all settlements in the vicinity of Mount Kraken, a volcano that has been ejecting ash for several hours now. The cloud already covers an area hundreds of miles wide, but we expect a full-scale eruption very soon. We have had to abandon our rescue efforts due to increasing seismic activity, but there is still a small group of ponies unaccounted for. Our reports indicate they were hiking near the mountain, but we can find no sign of them. Time is short, can you help us?'

Crossover with the hit 1960's TV show Thunderbirds, which is the property of the Gerry Anderson Legacy and ITV Studios.

Wonderbirds is a series of standalone, episodic one-shots and shorts, not set in a linear narrative to each other. Though presented as a series of stories, you do not have to have read previous ones to understand the narrative in each one.

Finally, it was here. Power Ponies issue number four-hundred and nineteen, the grand finale of the 'Spectacular Siege of the Silver Stallion' arc. Spike had completed all the chores on his list, finished his afternoon nap, and ploughed through his dinner. He'd even eaten all his green vegetables. At last he could settle down, with a small bowl of gems to snack on, and experience the most anticipated comic issue in living memory.

Sadly for him, Twilight was acting strange. At least, stranger than usual.

For context, set prior to the events of the Season 4 Finale 'Twilight's Kingdom'.

Newly-together couple Vinyl Scratch and Octavia have just spent the night out on the town. Vinyl blasted their favourite nightclub with major wubbage while Octavia discovered a new drink at the bar. Now Vinyl has to escort home a marefriend more drunk than she's ever been, and in her intoxicated state, Octavia says just a little bit too much.

This story is a sequel to Scotchtavia

After a heavy night of drinking, most of which she can’t remember, Octavia awakens to a monstrous hangover. But even this isn’t enough to distract her from the obvious fact that Vinyl is acting… different. Kinder, sweeter, and much more considerate. Something happened last night, something that has clearly had a huge effect on Vinyl. But what could it possibly be?
