For years, Twilight Sparkle and Queen Chrysalis have been at each other's throats. Both have experienced victory over the other, and both have experienced defeat. Out of all the creatures in Equestria, none despise each other the way the pony Princess and changeling Queen do. They seemed destined to remain locked in battle forever, or at least until one is finally dead at the hooves of the other. The cruel insults, the vicious loathing, and the powerful spells that have passed back and forth between them at each meeting have become the stuff of legend.

Imagine Twilight's surprise when she finds out changelings consider this dating.

And now they're married.

Some beautiful fanart of the end of chapter three was done by Dmann892; you can see it here.

More awesome fanart, this time from chapter one.

Now with a TvTropes page (obligatory TvTropes warning goes here).

If you want a Russian translation, you can find it here.

There is now a reading of the story on Youtube, which starts here.

Twilight faces the thought of immortality with her usual aplomb: falling down into a ball of misery and confusion about her role, and what she will do in the eventual absence of her friends and family.

That is, until a much older Twilight Sparkle takes the time to talk to her.

There are stories that wind the long trail of complexity, treachery, and scale the mountains of mighty story telling. There are stories that redefine our very perceptions of who we are and what our meaning is in this word.

Needless to say, this is not one of those stories. No, this is a simple story. A simple story about two young humans falling in love.

Taylor, a simple man who works part-time, and Fluttershy, a simple woman who, with her friends, recently moved into town. Together they will learn that which all star destined lovers learn; what it means to finally, truly, and honestly, open one's heart to another.

Author's Note: This was written as a commission for an old friend many moons ago, in which commission they asked that I ship a mutual friend of ours with their favorite pony, Fluttershy. They wanted it simple, clean, and human. So, therefore, I present to you a relic of the past, written prior to season 2.

"Commonly; I don't really mind ponies. They're cute. However, becoming one wasn't exactly what I had in mind."

L dies, then comes back as a pony after making a deal with Death.

Or he hoped it was Death.

The cover isn't mine, I just had an idea from it and wrote this one shot!

On her way to Canterlot High for her music club, Octavia meets Vinyl Scratch and is annoyed by the music blasting from her headphones. After getting yelled at, Vinyl responds by making odd gestures with her hands. It turns out, Vinyl Scratch is deaf, and she feels music instead of listening to it. Feeling ashamed, Octavia wishes to make it up to her, but is surprised by Vinyl's request.

The grey earth-pony Octavia Philharmonica has everything she'd ever desired: A small house in Trottingham and appointments at the Concert Hall. But there is something missing. Despite all of her dreams, she is incredible lonely. She even places a small ad in the local paper to find a roommate that fits taste. Once Vinyl, a white-coated unicorn, appears in front of her door, Octavia's world completely changes, bringing back the past that she and Vinyl forgot.

(Rated teen with sex for some heated situations and.. talk. But no clop! Just to stay safe^^)
Main chars are Vinyl and Tavi, but since Spitfire and Sassaflash are appearing quite a lot now I added the 'other' and 'Spitfire' chartags too. Luna tag added for chapter seven and eight
