To save her family and home, Applejack the Peasant would travel across Equestria through many hardships, even rescue a Princess from a dragon keep.

But now the journey back, that’s what she considered the problem.

After all, escorting Princess Rarity across the country safely would be nothing but a nuisance.

Because of course, A Princess and a Peasant could never get along.

And naturally, A Princess and a Peasant could never fall in love.

…But there’s a first time for everything.

(That’s right. I took the baseline of the story of Shrek 1 and I made it about Rarijack; And it’s glorious)

It's been a long while since Applejack and her friends had a real night out, and Braeburn's newly-out cousin visiting town is a perfect excuse to get the girls back together and get rowdy at Ponyville's best (and only) gay/lesbian/non-denominationally-queer watering hole. There's just one problem: Braeburn wants to bring his new boyfriend along too. Also, his new boyfriend is a psychopathic dictator who tried to enslave the Crystal Empire twice and was extremely dead the last time Applejack saw him.

On second thought, that's two problems. Maybe more. Definitely a whole lot more.

My just-in-time entry for the M/M Shipping Contest III that got ever so slightly out of hand. Rated T for sexual themes, lots of booze, a couple of potty words, and Applejack being the disasteriest lesbian in Equestrian history.

According to legend, there is a rock that is known to grant good luck to those who are in possession of it. The mare of stone will travel to the ends of the Earth just to get it for her daughter, no matter who or what may try to stop her.

But she can't deny that raising such an outcast is hard, and she will have to struggle with her thoughts and her emotions as she wonders if retrieving this rock is really worth it -- if not for her daughter, then for her entire family.

Written for the Ancestral Tribute contest.

After a marathon of viewing the lost Friendship is Magic seasons found by Zipp, Sunny has determined that it presents content that is factually incorrect and embarks on a new crusade to right what is wrong. Things get a little bit out of hand when she contacts our world for changes.

This is a short and silly story inspired by the cover picture and parodying the Save G4 movement that some people have going on the internet. This is not meant to be taken as a serious critique of either G4 or G5.

Update! This story was featured and someone generously did a dramatic reading of it. Go listen to it if you enjoy your horses being talky.

When Twilight Sparkle returns to Ponyville after a long stay in Canterlot, the last thing she wants to find is a bar turned into a church that sports the visage of her good friend Rainbow Dash. Not to mention the weird fascination with rainbow mac and cheese.

Can Twilight get to the bottom of this strange mystery and climb out of the ever deepening sinkhole that is her rapidly increasing frustration?

Eh, probably not.

Rarity doesn't have the best track record with love. Not one bit. And she knows it. She's about to talk about it, actually. It's going to take a while. You might want to sit down for this one.

She's not bitter about it. Not at all.

Originally written as a speedwrite, expanded here for your questionable enjoyment.

The staff of Monsters Intergalactic have had a long, proud tradition of scaring the crap out of children for generations, across many worlds, all for a good cause. In their history, they've run across very few they couldn't eventually take down.

But this one nine-year-old filly is...different. Despite their best efforts, she refuses to even show the slightest bit of fear, no matter what they do. So...it's time to bring out the big guns.

When news about a new restaurant that serves meat opens up in Ponyville, there's a bit of mixed reception. On one side, you have creatures like the students and other visitors to Ponyville that'll be happy to have some food like chicken and fish to eat again. On the other side, there are the ponies who aren't fond of having animals being eaten.

Izzy signs up her friends to do a panel debate about particle physics at the Bridlewood Festival of Philosophy. Sunny, Zipp, and Pipp get behind the idea. Hitch is not sure what he is doing here.

Poor Diamond can never seem to catch a break from her parents. This holiday season, like so many others, will be one where she's left alone.

...Or so she thinks.
