This story is a sequel to Blink


Teleportation is a mysterious thing. Is it as simple as it looks, or is it really just some copy that appears to take your place? The latter, it's definitely the latter. Too bad there is no way to know without trying it yourself. Now, stuck in a death-filled place with no magic and only her double for company, Twilight faces starvation and worse unless she can escape. But how does one escape without magic? Most would say you can’t.


Unofficial sequel to Blink by ocalhoun and one of its prequels, Not The First, by Flash Notion. A timeline was created by Cocoa Bittersweet to keep track of all stories within the Blinkverse.

This story is a prequel to But Would Anything Matter?


Littered around Ponyville are stains of blood, an’ more an’ more bodies. Ponies I knew. Ponies I called friends. Ponies who will, dependin’ on how much of ‘em is left, probably get up and do the same to anyone else left alive. I wish I could stop it, but I can’t bring myself to desecrate their bodies like that.

Everypony who was able to evacuate is gone, I think, an’ all that’s left is me an’ Dash an’ the other… the other things that are lurkin’ about.

Thank you to The Legendary Bill Cipher, Zontan, Lofty, Red Parade, Moonshot, and Stynger Skies for prereading, editing, and thwacking me over the head when things don't make sense. In theory, I could do this without you all, but it'd be worse and every other letter would be in comic sans.

This story is a sequel to Raining Down


The rain hit Canterlot harder than Ponyville. At least in Ponyville they end at some point, allowing a break if not safety until the next. An intermission between the storms.

But in Canterlot, the rain seems to never end. It’s constantly beating at the walls, resounding through the halls, and pouring in the mind.

Luna tries her best, she has done all she can to manage being the primary princess for over theee years. However like Twilight, it has worn her down. How much so, is yet to be seen. The Rain is carrying something, and what it is does not make the lack of a cure better by any means. In fact, it may mean the future is far bleaker than ever imagined, for more reasons than one.

The Sequel to Raining Down. Told in a journal format. Part two in the series. Luna’s perspective.

Death tag for pony deaths due to the rain carried pathogen.
