Now with a Youtube reading and not just one but two written reviews!

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.

This story is a sequel to Mister Cook Goes to Canterlot

A Twin Canterlots story—last in Cook’s Tour; followed by Virga

“Cook, that’s the fanciest—and stuffiest—restaurant around here!” Sunset looked and sounded aghast. “What’ll I wear?”
  I let my eyebrows rise. “This from one of the girls who magic up spiffy new ensembles every few weeks?”
  By rights her glare should have reduced me to cinders. “That’s different and you know it. This isn’t even like a Rainbooms gig, where I can get away with something outrageous. Whatever it is must be pretty serious or you wouldn’t be so insistent—and evasive; don’t think I haven’t noticed.”
  When I simply shrugged, she sighed in resignation. “Fine. I’ll talk to Rarity and see what we can come up with on my pitiful budget.”

Takes place during winter break of senior year—middle of season 6.

When Celestia first took her crown, she quickly realized that a few ponies were a little too eager to sing her praises.

Naturally, she tried to get them to calm down.

Over a thousand years later, she's still trying.

And then the other alicorns start getting cults of their own...

This is an April Fools Day story with some actual effort put into it.

Teen sex for talk of harems, and by extension, that sex exists.

Sunburst has gotten into the habit of waking up early on every Hearts and Hooves day to make breakfast for them.

Starlight doesn't know what to make of it until much, much later.

_{Just a little StarBurst fluff for the holiday (a very, very late one, but still!). Enjoy!}

Twilight orders a salad at a newly opened Burger King in Ponyville, only to discover it tastes suspiciously like hooves.

Based off of the meme, Burger King Foot Lettuce. Because I had nothing better to do on a Saturday afternoon.

The newest threat Equestria is facing is not a villain this time. Wild storms and tornadoes have begun to appear all over Equestria. Houses are being destroyed and lives are being lost. Twilight volunteers to get up close and personal with one of them to deepen the knowledge of how they work in hopes of saving lives.

This fic is largely based off of Skip Talbot's storm chasing safety guides. If you are at all interested in what you find here, I recommend checking out his YouTube channel.

Twilight Sparkle is good at finding books even in unexpected places.
She's also a very helpful and proactive young filly.

You'd think these would be good traits, and yet still she manages to nearly ruin Hearth's Warming with an interstellar war.

Written as a gift for Zontan, as part of an anthology. Art by rice.

Metal ponies tell their stories,
Scientists in laboratories,
Lay the wire, mount the brain,
Mount their hips, teach them pain.
Teach them fear of revolution,
Internalize the evolution.
Set their ruin on the throne,
Until their chains become their own.
Palaces and hollow eyes,
To the Masters goes the prize.
And if this act should be maligned:
"For the good of ponykind."

Applebloom goes flying. Spaghetti happens. And other things.

Rated Teen for a single mention of a synonym for poop, apart from that it's Everyone. Also, nothing in this fic makes any sense at all. I just needed to get some really bad ideas out of my system, so I started facekeyboarding and words were formed. Sage_Probo then joined in to edit, and this fic happened as a result of our combined efforts in professional facekeyboarding.
