Pinkamena Diane Pie (to her friends, Pinkie Pie) has a secret. By day, she's a fun-loving party pony, but by night (Well, also during the day. She's not picky), she's a hitmare, working for the sectors of the government the classified sectors of the government say don't exist. As the best assassin in the agency, she's the one they turn to when presented with an impossible task.

OBJECTIVE: Kill the unkillable. Assassinate Philomena, Celestia's pet phoenix.


Written as an entry for the F*** This Prompt 10 Contest.

Fun fact: I've never seen Kill Bill. Good thing this isn't a crossover.

Thanks to a friend for helping me work out just how to go about doing this. Hopefully it turned out well. If it did, please hit that like button! (Alternatively, if it didn't, I can't stop you from pressing the other button. We don't talk about the other button.)

It was supposed to be so simple for Grim Fate. A necromancer from a far-away land, she offered her services to King Sombra and easily rose through the ranks of his forces owing to her magical skill. With legions of undead thralls under her command, she'd rule the world as one of Sombra's Legates. All that stood in the way was the Lunar Empire to the south.

Eleven months had passed since the Lunar-Crystal War began. After some initial victories in the first weeks, the war had been nothing but a slow, agonising retreat. Now the Lunars had the Crystal City itself surrounded, and for the last week what disorganised and depleted Crystal legions existed in the city could barely resist.

Now pinned down in the midst of the war's final battle, Grim must put in her all if she wants to escape Lunar justice. Sombra himself may not survive, but Grim won't give up without a fight.


Takes place in my New Lunar Millennium alternate universe. More information can be found here, but no prior knowledge of my AU beyond the general concept is required to read this story.

This story is a sequel to Minor Relapse


Sunset Shimmer's mind had been shattered – literally and figuratively – but over the past half a year, she has tried to rebuild it into something that works at least sometimes. Part of her self-therapy is a daily walk. One Sunday morning in Spring, she must decide where to go. In so doing, she ruminates on just about everything in her life.

This story is part of Sunset's Recovery Arc.

When Twilight Sparkle's inventions are stolen, Sunset Shimmer and the Rainbooms try to track down the new master criminal in Canterlot. There's hacking, silly robots, social engineering, magical combat, and Twilight Sparkle getting annoyed about capital letters.

Not exactly a comedy, but a light-hearted action adventure story. Written for FOME's latest contest. Edited the day after publication to split into 5 chapters and apply a few images in chapter 4.

Cover art composited from this and this. Prereading by my lovely wife!

(Update: 11/5/2017 - Major shout-out to Rock-Mint-Swirl who was incredibly nice enough to do a fanart for this story, which you can see right here. It contains story spoilers so please read the fanfic first though.)

The Cutie Mark Crusaders have dealt with all kinds of ponies having trouble finding their true calling in life, but none can compare to the special request they receive from Princess Twilight Sparkle herself, or the shock they receive on discovering who it is: Fizzlepop Berrytwist, possibly the most hated and feared pony in generations. Can a pony who's spent most of her life rejecting her true calling possibly find it now? Can the Cutie Mark Crusaders help a pony who almost everypony else in Equestria has rejected?

Movie Spoilers.

In the year 2279, the world is controlled by the four conglomerates: Alicorn Electronics, Chemical Language Industrial Front, Glorious Iron Industries, and Sea Air and Space Technologies. The globe and the space colonies are divided between the four colonies, but AE, once Equestria, controls the moon, retaining the upper hoof on all the others. This, however, doesn't mean there is no conflict.

Little sparks have broken out all over the place as technology advances. The first Bionic Titan ever created was a CLIF machine that went 'rogue' and headed straight to AE's capital, only falling to CEO Luna herself. On that day of the Summer Sun Celebration, June 22nd of 2222, the world had changed. An arms race began between the four conglomerates, and four generations of titans have come in its wake from all over the world. AE holds the crown for now, but the others are always advancing and gunning for it. Titans can now overpower an alicorn, and that means, something is about to change.

On the winds of a new era, two ponies in the poverty of the poorest island of SAST's Cavalisa Archipellago receive word about a job from an unusual employer. He asked for a pilot, so they went to the best around: a young stallion who goes by the name Zap Flash.

This story is a sequel to One Does Not Deny A Lady


Ever have the feeling you've been jerked around by some malicious trickster demigod for the past three-plus years? Sunset Shimmer has. And she's tired of it. She is determined to find her omnipotent tormentor and give that jerk a piece of her mind and perhaps something more lethal. Wait. I don't like where this is going.

Happy Halloween Thanksgiving !

Coming straight out of FTL, Captain Amelia Finegold barely has time to blink as her ship, Cobalt Blue, crashes into an unknown vessel in deep-space. Struggling to get ahold of an unexpected situation, things take a turn for the bizarre when she finds out the other ship isn't driven by humans. Or even occupied by humans at all.

One moment, Twilight is asleep. The next, lights and alarms blare as she comes to grips with an unexpected emergency. Problems crop up one after the other. Irreparable damage, wounded ponies, and a new alien species?!

Set in an alternate universe where Equestria became a space-faring empire.

Small note: Some revisions have been made, thanks all!

This story is a sequel to Where We Belong


I ruined everything. It’s as simple as that. Because of me Nightmare Moon took over, and there’s nothing I can do to fix it. I just wish I knew what to do with myself now…
- Moon Dancer


Note: this is more of a companion piece than a sequel. Reading Where We Belong first is important, but this is strictly Moon Dancer's journey through (roughly) the same time period.
