OCCASIONALLY, WHEN RELAXING BETWEEN MONSTER TRUCK RALLIES AND ROCKET LAUNCHES, TWILIGHT "SCREW IT" SPARKLE RELAXES WITH A BOOK BY THE WARM FIRELIGHT OF OTHER LESSER BOOKS. LITERALLY, A BOOK, AS ONLY HER OWN AUTOBIOGRAPHY CAN SURVIVE THE SCRUTINY OF A GOD AMONG GODS-WHO-SUBSEQUENTLY-BECOME-MEWLING-WHELPS-BEFORE-HER-EYE-SEARING-GLORY.

THIS IS HER STORY.

AS IF YOU'D READ ANY OTHER.

(DUE TO A SURPRISINGLY APPROPRIATE WORDCLOUD, COVER ART NOW EXISTS. YOU MAY REJOICE.)

This story is a sequel to Pipe Down's Cutie Mark

Pipe Down has mastered many techniques with regards to the art of story telling. However, his senility prevents any understanding of tact. Will he be able to tell Rarity the truth about her parents without mortifying her? No, but only because he's too old for that.

Rainbow Dash is really enjoying being an honorary big sister to Scootaloo. They hang out, she praises Rainbow's sweet moves- it's really the perfect relationship. Until Rainbow has to do boring grown-up stuff and ask to meet Scootaloo's parents. No big deal. Just in case something happens, Rainbow knows who to go to.

Except... Scootaloo keeps dodging the question. And nopony in town has a clue where she lives either.

Rainbow is getting worried while Scootaloo is getting more and more desperate to avoid an answer. Because what if that answer isn't cool enough for Rainbow Dash?

Spike only wants things to stay the same. Time, however, has other ideas. He's going to need a lot of help... An everypony story.

Blueblood has escaped from prison, and built up a very sizable following. Well, it would be a sizable following, but some pony has a vendetta against him. His thugs get attacked left and right, and all signs indicate that the killer wants him dead most of all.

Vinyl Scratch is worried about Octavia. She hasn't been the same since the incident.

Fancy Pants is doing his best to wash his hooves of all involvement he had ever had with Blueblood. His involvement was unintentional, but many ponies have suffered because of it. In particular, he is worried about the physical and mental health of Octavia, who seems to have suffered the most from Blueblood's past endeavors.

Foals are going missing all over Equestria. All Fluttershy knows came to her in a dream. Or a nightmare. A black thing that feeds off of fear and imagination is behind it all. And it will do anything to stay alive. Can Fluttershy stop this creature before more go missing, or will she end up like the others: scared insane?

(A collab with Midnight Radio Hotline. Go check her out!)

A new school year brings a new soccer season -- but Canterlot High's already on the ropes. Their team captain just can't seem to get it together.

Fortunately the team also has a vice captain: a best friend who just isn't going to stand for sadness on her watch.

(A Bookish/iJab production! Cover by the latter as well. Thanks for everything.)

Pipe Down has tended to his tobacco fields for years. He's dealt with rudeness on the issue before, but normally he and his aggressors reach an understanding. The mob at his doorstep does not seem very peaceful though.

AN: Something of a collaboration with Changeling-Drone.
Talk to him if you ever run out of story ideas.

Flight School is where it started for her. An infatuation with Rainbow Dash that Fluttershy would carry for seven years, eight months and fifteen days (not that she's been counting). All she has to do is tell Rainbow Dash how she feels, and, really, its not as if its a daunting task.

Right?
