When Equestria accidentally opened a portal to another world, they discovered a new species: humans. Their arrival changed the world. For the Equestrian Ponies, it heralded a great cultural and technological jump needed from their stagnating way of life. For the Gryphons, however, they represented something baser: an opportunity to increase food stock and finally have a 'friendlier' predator species to ally themselves with.

For Gilda, one of the the humans was Ancestor-sent, a soul she would protect for bringing much joy to her life. And when a chain of events force her to accompany her human to Equestria, she recalls the circumstances of their meeting, the trials they pass through, the friendship forged through fire, and love born out of understanding under the harsh skies of the Kingdom.

This is her story.

"You are mine!"

Thank you to all my readers.

Gilda returns to Ponyville to try to apologize, but Pinkie just will not shut up long enough for Gilda to do so.

If only there was SOME WAY to keep that pink pone's tongue busy.

Gilda has just lost her childhood friend. She feels awfully foalish at the moment. Can she ever hope to find a new one?

(This is my first one-shot. Inspired by Griffin Village's song "Winter (Gilda)". I hope that you have enough kindness in your heart to forgive her <3)

P.S. Contains some mild language.

A soft-hearted unicorn. A griffon who's rough around the edges. A pair who were never supposed to meet. A story never meant to be told.
Nothing about these two seem to mesh. They don't really work together, and yet, once they meet, they go everywhere together. Have the words of the unicorn touched the griffon's stony heart, or is the unicorn the one being touched? It doesn't matter to them. All that matters is that they get through the day. After all, if they don't admit defeat, then they never really lose.

Maybe it was frustration or more likely hormones motivated you to action. After six years of hesitation and admiration you moved all 120 ponds your manly self to finally make your intentions clear no matter how badly you mess up.

This is my first fic so take that as you will.

Spike feels neglected. Nopony respects what he does and he hears others complaining all the time. When he begins to be influenced by an old foe, Princess Luna helps him fight these feelings to try and return things to the way they were. As this continues, the princess and dragon start to see each other in a different way.

Spike has been abandoned by his friends at the Grand Galloping Gala. While wandering the halls of Canterlot Castle, he finds himself stumbling upon a peculiar pony.

With permission from MallaJong, I am continuing the story of Spike and Princess Luna's relationship.

Fair warning, my writting skills are not of his level, so please bear with me.

After the Grand Galloping Gala, Spike returns to Ponyville and continues as Twilight assistant. However, the connection with the Princess leaves them both wanting more. But with their duties to perform, such luxuries are few and far in-between. When can they meet again, and how will they go about it without raising suspicions?

After leaving on a second pilgrimage to find himself, Spike returns to Ponyville, physically larger and sporting an impressive array of skills and powers.

His plans for a calm life in Ponyville, however, takes a different path as he soon finds himself the desire of several ponies interests, friends old and new included.

Change breeds benefits, as the saying goes. Spike has yet to hear it ring true.
