The Tasty Treat becomes a successful restaurant, despite not having the three-hoof rating that makes all the restaurants in Restaurant Row successful. The Queen of Cuisine, Zesty Gourmand, will not let this stand without criticism.

Unfortunately for her, somepony else will not let her flawed method of critiquing restaurants go unpunished. And he's not holding back anything. No way in Hell, especially in his own kitchen.

Spoilers for Season 6 Episode 12

Random Oneshot Idea that just popped in my head.

Contains vulgar language and verbal bashing (Judging from the cover art, you can tell why).

It's Take Your Foal to Work day in Ponyville, and Scootaloo asks Rainbow Dash if she can accompany her to the weather factory since her father is too busy to take her. She agrees, but Rainbow starts wondering what Scootaloo's dad does for a living, and why she never talks about him. Tracking him down reveals the reasons.

It's Flurry Heart's seventh birthday, and her parents have told her she can have anything she asks for (so long as she eats all of her crystal veggies, which she did). They expected something extravagant, but obvious - a fancy dress, a room full of candy, maybe even her own little throne between theirs. What they did not expect was the one thing she wants more than anything for her special day. Princess Flurry Heart... wants a pony of her very own.

[EDIT]: Wow, on the front page in less than a day! This is amazing!

A great evil is being awakened by an old friend.

A mare comes into possession of a box that could save the world.

Two old friends have lost all that they love, and are willing to kill each other to make things right!

The fate of Equestria hangs in the balance!

(My attempt at the worst written fic i could think of)

Season 6 Spoilers.

Fluttershy's parents. The mysterious ponies who raised one of the legendary Elements of Harmony, no doubt as fantastically intriguing and full of character as the pony herself, right?

...Yeah, not so much. As for Fluttershy's brother...

How about no? Starlight Glimmer is full of no.

And you're not gonna believe what happens next!

Soarin; One of the best Football (Soccer) players in CHS, has another hobby then eating pie and Football. Golf.

And when Rainbow Dash, another very good football player at CHS finds out, well.... She shocked and, well... Curious.

Scootaloo's an orphan, let's get that fact out of the way. She lives in a cardboard box and it's rad as heck.

She also does other orphan stuff.

I'unno.

Big ups to Norse Pony for his editing work.

After being abandoned by her friends during christmas, Sunset Shimmer wanders the cold streets of town, alone, and with nowhere to go. After walking for hours, she eventually gives into the elements around her, only to be saved at the last second by the last ones she ever thought would help her.

Meanwhile, the truth about Anon-A-Miss has come out, and her five friends are desperately trying to find her so they can apologize for what they have done.

The black&red Alicorn with a tragic past stays confident despite the odds stacked against him. He is protective and liked by his peers. Even in the worst possible situation, he stays in control. Or does he?

*This story serves as a reminder to the fandom that the judgment of fics shouldn’t be based on superficial aspects such as cover art or the presence of a certain character. Stories should, instead, be judged on their quality. Read first, judge after.

10/10 ~ Flora Blossom

Wow, this was intense! I like it! ~ Mr Swanky Hat

This is interesting, very interesting ~ Drayco Meowfoy

Good plot, solid writing ~ monokeras

Hmm... I have to admit, with the premise and all the obligatory "black & red alicorn OC" elements thrown in, this was pretty impressive. ~ Dark Avenger

Bad has been far more ambitious here than by just making fun of a stupid trope: by taking it seriously, he's made a story that stands out a lot more than just senseless jokes. ~ HapHazred

Had no clue what I was reading first but then I get to the ending it all came together. ~ Dapper Guy

Really good. Shows how some people can be so brainwashed as to genuinely believe that slavery and tyranny is good, productive, order, and freedom is laziness and selfishness. ~ Europa

This story plunged me into the abyss of depression and made my insides turned outside. ~ Hungryman
