Not long ago, a strange creature named Anon wandered into Maretime Bay. It was clear from the get-go that he needed some help, but not everypony was immediately accepting of the strange creature. So, it fell to Sunny Starscout and her friends to look after the new arrival.

...At least, that was what they thought. When their backs were turned, Anon made an unlikely friend, and she was the last pony they expected to see him with. Posey Bloom isn't exactly known for getting along with others.

And yet, she adores him.

It’s midnight in Canterlot.

All the ponies have turned in for the night, and the city’s lights are shutting off. The moon now casts its face over the city. Princess Celestia’s duties are over for the day, but she feels empty. Her best friend, who is a human, Marcus, goes to cheer her up. His plan takes a mischievous turn when he takes her on a quick stroll to get away, if only for an hour.

Under the radiant moonlight, the heart’s true feelings are revealed.

Entry for CategoricalGrant's Cuddlefic Contest!

Now with a reading from StraightToThePointStudios!

A year after Twilight is made the sole ruler of Equestria, pony attempts to take over the nation. Twilight deals with it the way she always does.

Written for Categorical Grant's 2021 Cuddlefic Contest. My first attempt at one. So, possibly not enough cuddling.

You, a human living in Equestria, get invited to a Ponyville sleepover full of ponies you've barely heard the voices of and know little info about. You accept the invitation, and at bedtime, you have a choice of which background pony to go with for a fluffy, cuddly night!

Contains a mixture of well-known background ponies and lesser-known ones that have maybe one or two stories on this whole site!

Story premise inspired by CategoricalGrant's awesome story Mane Six Cuddle Simulator. Check that one out too! Also, CategoricalGrant did grant me permission to use this idea, so big shout out for that!

If you don't recognize a name, this should help: https://mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Background_ponies#Recurring_background_ponies

You're a human living in Princess Twilight Sparkle's castle in Ponyville. You absolutely love spending time with her and her friends.

Maybe you love it too much.

This story is a sequel to Belly Rubs in Pony Prison

[WARNING: Contains ear scratching, hugs, and blushing cheeks]

Anonymous is sent to jail for his most heinous crimes of first degree meanness, there he finds doing a few favours for those around him will allow him to live a comfortable life.

A sequel to Belly Rubs In Pony Prison, not required reading to understand however.

Alternate take on Season 5 premiere:

What if the Mane Six followed Starlight into the cave? What if they caught her instead of letting her get away? What if there was also a human living back in Ponyville who had trouble making friends?

This story is an "adopted" story of my friend TheHardie-Boy's story of "Caught and Punished", and that story was inspired by Slave Starlight written by titanictime2

The prologue and chapters 1-4 are from TheHardie-Boy's version, but with some minor edits. Chapter 5 and the chapters afterward are completely written by me. Despite the "Sad" tag, this isn't going to be a downer story and it will have a number of light-hearted moments. There will still be some sad moments, of course.

Special thanks to TheHardie-Boy for giving suggestions to the story and proofreading the prologue, chapters 1, 2, 8, 11, 12, and 32, and flutterJackdash for editing chapters 3 and 5.

When Anon ends up in Equestria, he decides that spending a week in bed would be a good way to get over this sudden and dramatic change in his life.

Twilight and her friends aren't so keen on this idea, and attempt to convince him otherwise; who will finally get him to see sense?

AUTHOR'S NOTE: The cover is cropped from its (SFW) source on Derpibooru; I needed an image of an Anon in bed, and this was the best one I could find that didn't have a pony in the bed with him.

Rated Teen for mild language.
