I never knew the ponies had affected me this badly. Never in the world would I have known my mind somehow was slowly going insane. I was stressed out and in desperate need to slow my roll. If I had a cookie for everytime I wish I could relax, I'd be best friends with Pinkie for having so many damn cookies. My life isn't necessarily a wreck, but somehow, in a weird pony filled way, I learned to slow down and enjoy myself. Even if I know I am insane.

Edit: Please for the love of god don't just dislike this story and run off. I'm really not in the mood for that bullshit, tell me why you disliked it at least.

Twilight preforms an old ritual from a recently purchased book. It's supposed to summon a friend, but she had no idea it would be inanimate, so she thought. The Aperture Weighted Companion Cube will befriend anyone that loves it. Even if it does harvest the souls of dead test subjects.

"It's true, people will continue to hate and scorn me. But if it means I can feel what it's like to be loved again, to see my friends just one last time, I can endure anything."—Trixie Lulamoon

On the day in which Equestria would have been blessed with a new Princess, Twilight Sparkle, the only mare who had ever offered me sincere kindness, vanished without a trace, taking with her the Element of Magic. As a result, the Elements are left incomplete, leaving Equestria vulnerable to the outside terrors once again.

Running on legends of a "Tree of Life" that can replace the Tree of Harmony's fruits, I, a mare lost in a sea of cacophony and loneliness, take it upon myself to journey into the unknown and save my homeland like the heroes of old. And in doing so, maybe wonder no longer what friendship could really be in a world that has rejected me for my sins.

My name is Trixie Lulamoon, the once Great and Powerful. And this is my story of the other side.

You've done it. You've achieved your dream. You're now in the magical land of Equestria. You don't know how, you don't know why, but you don't care. You're happy now. And that's all that matters.

Except, everything is wrong. The trees of the Everfree stand petrified and old. The vibrant sky of blue hangs grey with decay. The land lays jagged and cracked, with stone pillars of earth towering beyond the heavens. Monsters both ghastly and unfamiliar roam unchecked. And no matter how much you search, not a single living pony remains.

What happened to this land to turn it into such a hollowed shell?

A story with a minimalistic plot, leaving most to the reader to put the pieces of details and lore together.

Inspired by Dark Souls.

Twilight Sparkle goes to a conference and talks with some ponies about some numbers.

Time is running out. A thousand years have passed and Celestia could feel her strength fading. She would need to choose quickly - choose someone who would inherit her power. And who none better than the one she had looked over for the past couple decades? However, she's very sure that Twilight would not like to hear what the ultimate cost of it is.

In the wake of Granny Smith's passing, Apple Bloom finds herself shouldering responsibilities to make ends meet on Sweet Apple Acres. Despite her previous efforts to prove that she's grown up, she wants nothing more than to feel young and carefree again.

The wonderful cover-art was completed for me by the gracious Oliver-England.

Breezy Beach is a travel writer with a stalled career and an editor that doesn't return his calls. A small farming town like Ponyville doesn't carry the same romantic flair that a tropical beach or the sand dunes of Saddle Arabia does, but it pays for rent and cider. Without anything to tie him down and no responsibilities, Breezy is confident he has the bachelor life made. Nothing could take that away from him.

Not even a dragon.

AKA whatever I want.

Short one-shots, mostly under 1000 words. Genres will range from everything to everything. All stories so far will be rated E or T. Feel free to suggest prompts. Also, if you want to see a particular chapter expanded on and made into an actual story, tell me! I'll rewrite the most popular ones into actual fics.

It's the year 1000 CE. Everypony is in a stir over the upcoming Summer Sun Celebration. Surely, there must be something important about that number.

Professor Twilight Sparkle certainly seems to think so. Enough, in fact, to leave her tower in Canterlot, to travel to a town full of secrets and danger. Maybe, if she's lucky, she'll be able to put a stop to everything before it's too late.

Whether her boss likes it or not.
