Neither knows the other waits on the far side of a millennium.

happy literal last minutes of Pride Month!

Longdesc

There's nothing left that can save Equestria. Not Discord, not Celestia, not Luna, not Cadance, not Princess Flurry Heart. But their presence can at least buy Starlight Glimmer time to escape. She just needs to convince Trixie to come with her.

Info

An entry into the Pride and Positivity event.
The first draft of this fic was the third-place winner in the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting T is for Trans contest.
The first draft of this fic was a submission for a prompt from Bean's Writing Group Discord server, "Five Minutes Too Late". Thanks to Bean and RanOutOfIdeas for their feedback.

Thanks to The Sleepless Beholder for prereading on the second draft.

Battleship Bismarck. The pride of the Kriegsmarine: fifty thousand tons of guns, table games, and slot machines. Senior citizen discount to the buffet.

With discussions and pre-reads from the Samey90, Raleigh, Mockingbirb, and the usual discord crews.

This story is a sequel to Luna's Daughters

(Can be read without first reading the prequel.)

Centuries ago, in the years after Nightmare Moon's banishment, Luna and Celestia's descendants helped Celestia build the new nation.

Luna's great-granddaughter, Gale Glider, forged the Royal Equestrian Coast Guard, imbuing it with traditions of valor, sacrifice, and bravery. Her final words remain their sacred oath:

Preread by Sledge115 and RDT, thank you!

Cover art found on Google without any attribution, alas.

Out in the Bridlewood Forest lies a castle older than legends themselves.

This story is a sequel to Ms. Midshipmare Dash

Ensign Rainbow Dash, Royal Manticoran Navy, thought her past was behind her. She was wrong.

A sequel to Ms. Midshipmare Dash. It's by no means necessary to read the prequel first. 

A crossover with The Honorverse, but zero knowledge of that source material is needed. I created an Honorverse Crossover group.

Thanks to Samey90, Justified Paranoia, Mockingbirb, and Raleigh for pre-reading.

Cover art by commission with Harwick. This looks amazing, and big thanks!

Not an entry to any contest.

Being a pony from a human world is hard. Being a Queen's officer is harder.

No need to be familiar with the crossover source material ahead of time.

Thanks to Sledge115 and Raleigh for pre-reads, and various Discord denizens for idea bouncing.

Sequel: Fusion.

Love is built up over time, and no one knows that more than Ocellus.

Smolder doesn't know how beaks work. Like, when they're not being used to peck worms out of the ground. Gallus, Silverstream and Sandbar try to explain.

There's a lot of kissing involved.
