  • Favorites 65 stories - 96 unread chapters I liked these, and you should too.




  • Write-off Rereads 24 stories Stories so nice, I hope to eventually get around to reading them twice. This is a special-case RiL list of edited, published versions of fics I read during the writeoffs.


  • Why I Followed You 86 stories You're probably seeing this shelf because one of your stories is on here. Well, the shelf name should explain that.


  • Pennydroppers 19 stories Stories that make you go "Ooohh... shit." Almost always short, dark, and served with a twist. See "The Cost of Life", "The Arbitrage of Moments", "Happy Ending", "The Rose", or "The Corpse Bride" for the most prototypical examples.


  • Creepy Stories About Flowers 6 stories Why is this a thing? Why is the certificate icon the closest one available to a flower shape (unless you count Apple *Bloom*)? Who knows!?


  • 1. Necromancy -- General Reference 2. Black Magic -- General Reference 3. Death -- General Reference 19 stories SPIIIIKE! I thought I told you to put those on a shelf too high for the CMC! [After "Demise Reprise", I'm tempted to make a "Rainbow dies messily and frequently" spinoff shelf]


  • Fates Worse Than Death 17 stories "Hey, Pterrorgrine, what do you read when you want to feel hopeless and despondent and fearful of the agony of existence itself?" "Oh, you know, My Little Pony fanfiction and stuff."


  • The Royal Treasury 8 stories


  • Readable by Non-Bronies 6 stories JOIN THE HERD


  • The Big Three 3 stories These fics, between them, set me on the course from "yeah, I may like My Little Pony, but fanfic is for turbo-nerds" to millions of words read.

What does it mean to be immortal? Celestia has lived for too long. Her memories are old. She has seen many ponies, and many places, and many times, and many stars, and many dreams. She wakes one night to find she does not know the ponies and the stars of today from the ponies and the stars of any other day she has lived. She no longer knows what was real and what was only dreamed.

She desperately searches for the one pony she knows could not have been a dream.

A few days after the Nightmare Moon Incident, Spike awakens to find Twilight acting a little...odd. Or odder than usual anyway. All of a sudden she's being all motherly, sure of herself in ways she's never been before, and even more outgoing.

But…it’s kind of creepy how she just seems to know everypony’s name, or their habits, and even some stuff nopony else should know.

But she's still good old Twilight...right?

In a world where the Sonic Rainboom never occurred and tied the Mane 6 together, they found themselves taking drastically different paths in life. Nevertheless, they still managed to find one another and stand together when Equestria needed them most.

It's now several months after the Elements of Harmony chose their new bearers, and the citizens of Ponyville are about to take part in Winter Wrap-Up. Their plans are soon disrupted, however, by an ancient, unknown enemy with a desire to seize the Elements and an icy hatred for Celestia and Luna!


(This is an Alternate Universe fic, and the characterizations for the altered Mane 6 were inspired by defender2222)

When Canterlot pays the price for one of Twilight Sparkle's greatest mistakes, hundreds of refugees from the ruined city are stranded in Ponyville. Can the princesses maintain order in the overcrowded town, or will the combination of clashing cultures, Discord's antics, the machinations of a criminal mastermind, and outrageously bad luck send it spiraling into chaos?

"The nine most terrifying words in this language are: ‘I'm from the government and I'm here to help.’”

Veggie Vee is the model bureaucrat: enthusiastic, motivated, and absolutely enamoured with setting the world to rights from the safety of her desk in Canterlot. Being assigned to Ponyville to save her job, therefore, wasn't exactly on her to-do list.

The local citizens aren't too happy about it, either. What should have been a simple poster campaign against unhealthy eating swiftly becomes a war of attrition. An incompetent underground resistance attempts to foil her every move and Veggie's latent megalomania isn't helping. Princess Twilight is nowhere to be seen, and an explosion-happy, candy-loving sugar freedom fighter is on the loose.

Everything is about to spiral out of control...
