Discord Day...

Just a term bronies in the human world use to describe the random day of February 29th, or an actual holiday in Equestria courtesy of a certain meddling master of chaos who has decided to insist on the public recognition he so richly deserves?

Why can't both be true?

Read what happens as Discord attempts to explain to the princesses of the sun and moon his logic behind just creating a new day and night for the year (and without permission, no less). How, oh how, will the spirit of chaos talk his way out of this one?

And Happy Discord Day, everypony!

Something dark and horrifying is found wandering the outskirts of Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack goes to investigate, but what will the discovery reveal?

A Halloween story. Pre-read by ShyNight.
Now with a reading by Crafty Arts!

Now with a Russian translation by Nuclear-pony-Jack and Randy1974

After a long term at Canterlot High School, the Rainbooms and Human Twilight can't wait to go on their camping trip to the Everfree Forest. A veritable utopia of flowers, trees, wildlife, and more, it seems the perfect place to bunker down and relax for a while.

Or at least, it would be, if it wasn't facing the threat of being cut down by the ruthless Ms Miasma, who wants to create a new city in place of it. With the forest almost bankrupt, it's up to Sunset Shimmer, her friends, and a mysterious girl named Gloriosa to save it from the wicked Miasma.

But what secrets does the forest hold? What is Miasma's true intentions? And who is Gloriosa?

Adagio, Aria, and Sonata were both happy ponies who lived in a happy life. But when all was lost, a stranger makes a deal with Adagio to give she and her sisters whatever they desired. But Adagio did not expect what the stranger really offered.

Sometimes Pinkie sees the world in ways that others don't. To her, a bendy drinking-straw might serve as a debonair traveling companion, and a humble bag of flour might offer a comforting shoulder to cry on.

But what would happen if that straw, and that bag of flour, came to see each other as more than mere support for Pinkie? What if a flame of raw, unbridled passion began to burn between them?

Wonder no more, gentle reader! For within these pages lies a tale parody of tragic love in the tradition of such timeless classics as Romeo and Juliet and/or Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. But be warned, for within ye shall find such passion as to stir thy soul, regardless of whether thou art spending this Hearts and Hooves day nestled in thy lover's arms, or tucking into a resplendent tub of ice cream by thy lonesome...

Trying to patrol the dreams of every pony in Equestria can be stressful. To ease her burden, Luna retools the Tantabus to turn nightmares into good dreams instead of vice versa.

Faced with the prospect of possibly creating life, Luna seeks out Twilight's advice and assistance. With a little luck, they can get this all sorted out before the sun rises.

During her time in the human world, Sunset Shimmer has experienced many things.

Including, unfortunately, the frustration of having to deal with incompetent, negligent, or just plain rude package delivery service.

After putting up with one package delivery nightmare too many, Sunset Shimmer decides enough is enough.

Now, it's time to make a delivery of her own.

For Zef.
