Sea storms are a nasty but well-paid business: the business of Mobile Ops Pegasi Stormfighters. The small, pet-like "storms" cultured on mainland are nothing by comparison and hardly deserving of the name. Tempests on the ocean have no master. They're monstrous machines of pure untamed brutality. Only cruise-liners or larger naval vessels maintain teams large enough to actually waylay a storm of such scales, and even then each pegasus has the work of five.

Smaller ships with only a team of four, like The Bumbler, could at best hope to make the weather a little less deadly in anything stronger than a squall. By the mediocre standards of most inland ponies it would seem cruel to send two pegasi out in such conditions, but that's what they are paid to do. And the more dire the storm, the more necessary their job.

Following his uncouth behavior at the Grand Galloping Gala, Blueblood is sent to Ponyville by Princess Celestia to make amends to the Bearer he insulted.

Instead, he falls instantly in love with a strapping peasant stallion he sees in the market.

Unfortunately he is not very good at romance.

Twilight has never failed a student before, let alone four! With Starlight’s help, can she figure out how to grade four friends who didn't do the assignment?

This is a fun little one-shot to get back into the swing of things. Thanks to Bright Sight and Wireframe for pre-reading!

Octavia’s never without an idea, she’s never without a plan. Ideas, those are a tenth-bit a dozen, she’s got ideas for days. Plans, well, those are trickier. Short-term, long-term? Medium-terms? Plans intersect goals and she’s not exactly sure how they do; in her head it’s one thing and then she gets home after a day’s work and what counts as research and what counts as wasting her time when she could be doing something productive? Who could say?

Now with a reading by StraightToThePointStudio!

When you're a changeling, there's a lot of things you can do a more easily than everyone else. Fit into a tight space, sneak out of class, reach the top shelf. A little shape shifting is all it takes. When Ocellus feels the need to try something else for a little while, it's as easy as making herself a set of fingers to snap.

But maybe you don't need a whole transformation to try something different.
