JonTron visits the land of talking, magical ponies while the author experiments with the concept of combining the literary medium and a multitude of short clips of the visual medium for a relatively entertaining experience.

Rated T for the Tron in the JonTron ...also language.

Warning! Comments contain comments about the story! As such, since the comments are commenting about the story, it can be deduced that the comments commenting the story are commenting about information relevant to the story, which means that those who decided to read the comments before reading the story, for whatever reason, should be warned about comments commenting about information that's relevant to the story and the spoilage that may occur.

Edit: story featured on—ah, who even cares? I mean, why even bother noting the date? What am I gonna do? Look back fondly on the exact date that my story got put in the featured box? I mean, honestly, I'm pretty sure I just lost a whole bunch of views just for having the word 'featured' in my story's summary.

Part one of the Yearbook

Fluttershy never thought of herself as an adventurer, but when opportunity arises, she sets out to the frozen north— the land of Arctica. This journey must be undertaken without her friends, but that doesn't mean they can't help her along a little on the way.

Still, Fluttershy has no idea what strange things lurk in the north...

Part Two of the Yearbook

Fluttershy has been in the frozen northern lands of Arctica for less than a week, and has already run into trouble. She's found something of a curiosity—something she cannot place or name, something that does not seem dangerous, but sends her into unease nonetheless.

With an almighty blizzard bearing down on her, Fluttershy does her best to make sense of what's happening in the cold north....

Rainbow Dash's dream has come true, and she's been accepted for training at Wonderbolt Academy. All she needs to do is fill out a few forms, get fitted for a uniform, and get vaccinated for Feather Flu.

That last one might be a bit of a problem.


Marston241 showed me the picture, and I pretty much had to write a fic based on it.

Ponies expect certain things from a mysterious shop that appears at the end of a lonely side street, and Old Gob does his very best to provide that experience. The candlelight flickers, a thick layer of dust coats items of dark and fantastic powers, and the door creaks ominously as ponies enter and leave with their purchases to discover the costs and rewards. Of course, sometimes the costs outweigh the rewards.

They certainly did for Twilight Sparkle and her friends. So when they manage to get to the shop right before it closes and disappears, they aren't going to leave until they get a refund.

(Fic contains a small amount of comedic TwiJack shipping.)

Second place winner for the February Writeoff Association prompt "Closing Time."

This story is a sequel to A Fact for Twilight


Applejack's mother was a Manehattan pony who fell in love with Sweet Apple Acres and the farmer who lived there. The gold necklace he gave her wasn't expensive or flashy, but she loved it anyway. Now that Applejack is ready to propose to Twilight with the same necklace, she hopes it really is fit for a princess.

(Cover art base by Sketchy Jackie. This is a stand alone sequel, you don't have to have read A Fact for Twilight.)

Under the guiding hoof of their newly-crowned monarch, King Sombra, prosperity and love flourish in the lands of the Crystal Empire. With peace spanning half a century, most ponies have forgotten the true terror sleeping behind the forbidden boundaries of the northern wastelands.

However, rumblings of a powerful threat from the borderlands have alerted key ponies in the Empire. The tepid peace between the two nations begins to waver as the embittered changelings prepare for war.

With the kindling in place and the flint struck, the mettle of kings and countryponies are taken to their limits, testing just how far each one is willing to go for their homeland.


Foreword: Due to some confusion noted by several people, I will clarify here that this story takes place in the original time of the Crystal Empire (after Discord's original reign but before Nightmare Moon's first iteration.)

Thanks go out to my wonderful editor, nucnik
