On a calm and snowy night, just a few days before Hearth's Warming, Spike decides to check up on Twilight to see if she's doing okay.

Twilight has been through much hardship recently, but thankfully, over the past year she's gotten much better since. However, with fears still lingering in Spike's mind, he wants to be absolutely certain that Twilight's improved well-being stays that way.

And he'll do it by doing what he does best at. By being right by her side. There for her. Always.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this. You're criticism is much appreciated
ARTWORK by: Seabridge Drive THANK YOU!

Deep under the resplendent city of Canterlot lies a web of vaults, containing many secrets hidden from the common folk. One of such undercrofts shelters an extraordinary artifact – the crimson horn of King Sombra, the uneasy spirit of the corrupted unicorn still within it.

After months of careful consideration, Princess Celestia ventures down into the delves underneath to confront the fallen king, determined to aid him and bring him serenity at long last.

Roseluck would think herself a pony reasonable enough not to make questionable decisions. For example, accepting a dare to gather the blooming flower of woodland starsalvia that happens to open its petals at night only, to prove that she is not a crybaby.

Roseluck would think herself a pony reasonable enough not to get lost in the woods for the sake of a dare just like that.

Roseluck would think herself a pony reasonable enough not to venture through a dark cave if she were to find herself in one. Nor to disturb its inhabitant, even inadvertently.

Roseluck thought herself that...

Meet Ditch.

Ditch is the caretaker at the Canterlot Cemetery. He lives a calm life involving digging, burying, seldom... well, occasional... alright, habitual drinking, and generally managing the place and its residents to the best of his abilities.

Ditch enjoys his job. The salary is not enough to live, but sufficient not to die, the graveyard shifts are not graveyard shifts, and the clients are calm and docile, even if a little bit stiff. Canterlot ponies, right? But Ditch does not mind. They don’t complain and loyally catch some due rest.

Except for when they suddenly don’t.

Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity, all went to the same school at some point in time. Sadly their beloved teacher Cheerilee died there in a way they can't remember. Now -years passed the events- that very same teacher wants revenge. A revenge that can only be achieved by them bleeding to their death while screaming in agony.

Revenge on the five that ruined and eventually costed her, her life. But is everything as it seems to be? Or is this all, one big nightmare in and of itself? Frightened for their lives, the are willing to do everything to keep themselves alive and away from the killer. A killer who takes them in their very dreams.

A story because I was bored alright, picture is a little unrelated for I couldn't really find a good one for it.
Yes, this can be considered a crossover, or at least Ponyfied version of 'A Nightmare on Elms street' and I agree, but given how I personally dislike it to make a character come from one universe in the other either staying normal or ponyfied, I went with for me the most logical thing.

Rarity, a name that will ring as a topnotch tailor and worker by many. But time doesn't stand still for anypony. For she has reached her final night with love and passion. But even Rarity knows that when it is time to go, you don't need to fight death off. Embrace it as a friend you never had but always wanted to have.

Follow the elder unicorn as she goes through the last night of her life, but also join her on the road to the Great Beyond. The realm where all the souls go to when they pass away and what joys they shall bring to her.

You can consider this my 'one year anniversary story' as I came up with it after I wrote the blog.

Two MLP fans who live half a world away from each other begin a romance RP.

This is a slightly experimental style of story, following two parallel narratives: a romance between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash in Equestria, and the relationship between two RPers in our world.

Although the rules of fimfiction forbid chat logs being published as stories, I'll note that the chat logs in this story are fictional — they have been entirely crafted by the author, and are not just copied and pasted from a real chat — and only form a small part of the story. I asked a moderator before I even started writing, and he seemed to think it would be okay. While the story is intentionally written as if it could have been an RP, I can assure you I wrote the whole thing myself. I've never even RPed PinkieDash.

This story is a birthday present for one of the most amazing individuals on the planet. Many thanks to Infinity Shade, scootaloo96, and Frowning Sugarcoat for pre-reading this, and offering me their feedback, which I blissfully ignored.

Dear Discord,

I'm sure you have found yourself rather bored as of late, seeing as you have given up your true nature to stay reformed. So I have a project for you.

I'm awful curious to know what you do in your spare time, so I'd like you to keep a journal from now on and update me weekly. It will be a good way to kill some time, and it will help me keep tabs on you as you adapt to your new lifestyle. Think of it like a sort of Reformative Exercise.

You can send me your letters via dragonfire, which I do believe you are more than capable of doing so with your own magic. (If not, I'm sure Twilight will always let you borrow Spike,)

I'll be expecting your first letter soon!

- Celestia

When famine strikes Equestria it is changed from a place of abundance and happiness into a place of scarcity and destitution. And see how one act of kindness can change anypony for the better. (Based off of Victor Hugo's Les Miserables.)

Monotone blurted some things out about how he felt about death to the school counseler... now he's admitted to a mental hospital for suicidal ideation. But why is it that this is the one group of ponies he feels that he can actually relate to? Is he actually crazy, or are they all NORMAL? And why is Discord doing volunteer hours at an adolescent mental institution? Rated teen for slight language and sexual references.
