Fancy Pants and his lovely wife Fleur are quite possibly Canterlot's most heroic duet. Together they conquered countless events, faced hordes of snobbish socialites, and emerged victorious from the most dire of faux pas. May their bravery and finesse be forever remembered on parties to come!

There is a missing element in their perfect life, though: the joy of having a child and becoming a family. When conventional methods fail, will the couple muster enough courage to seek out the alternative, or will they stay a duet forever?

Enter Chestnut—a daring filly from beyond Equestria, out of their social stratum, and definitely exceeding their boldest expectations.

For better or worse.

This story is a sequel to Daring DONE!

The princesses need to take a week off to argue about important issues.

Luckily, Twilight is there to rule Equestria while they're gone!

There's absolutely no way this can go wrong.

As it's a sequel to "Daring DONE!", Twilight Velvet is the writer of the Daring Do saga and our favorite Indiana Jones homage is still a fictional character. That's what the AU tag is about!

Berry Punch and Berry Pinch are a happy mother and daughter that live in Ponyville. They have many friends there, and, despite being changelings, have managed to live a nice life of obscurity for many years.

But when Berry Pinch finally reaches maturity, she learns that, rather than feeding off of love, she gives it.

How will this new revelation effect the citizens of Ponyville, and more importantly, Berry Pinch herself?

Inspired by Karin/Chibi Vampire, by Yuna Kagesaki.

Weevil and Echo are a married changeling couple who, amongst thousands of others at a time of mass migration, have left the Changeling Kingdom in search of a better life in Equestria, the so-called 'land of love, tolerance and opportunity'. Now Equestrian citizens and living in Six Points, a diverse and deprived district in Lower Manehattan, Weevil and Echo have opened their own business and are trying their best to raise their family and simply live their lives

Of course, raising a family is never easy wherever you live, especially in this bizarre urban jungle populated by friends, enemies, and all out crazies. But through it all, Weevil keeps a level head, an unwavering dedication to his friends and family and his values, and by doing so will come out on top out of whatever this Celestia-forsaken city throws at him.

Hopefully.

“But there is something you should know, Queen of the Changelings. You haven’t hurt me or my people half as much as you’ve hurt your own.”

"So the question you must ask yourself now," The princess concluded, "Is what you intend to do about it?"

Cover made by the very awesome Conicer. Go thank him!

Rated Teen for occasional swearing

After losing her mother and her closest friend in the same day, Umbra has decided to leave the only home and family she's ever known and venture to the surface with Tak the changeling as her guide. Intent on finding the thief who stole her ghostly friend, and confronting the pony said to be her birth mother Umbra must travel a good distance in an unfamiliar world to achieve either.

Direct sequel to Umbral Shadows

Umbra works hard to contribute to her family's efforts against their enemies. No one in her family has ever been so gifted in crafting clever traps and insidious poisons. The youngest daughter to the Queen of the mysterious Spiderkin, Umbra does her best to set a good example for her mother's subjects.

Umbra is also a pony.

This' my first try at writing a first person story, hope it's not awful!
Sequel is up, Umbral Travels. If you like this one check it out :o

Much like a fine blade, love tempered in the fires of passion and hardened by adversity will stand against all trials it may face. However, love sought through anger and violence shall not persist. Can a simple changeling drone learn the true nature of love and will the love that he never knew he could have withstand the tests set before it?

Or will it crack and shatter like brittle steel?
