"Thanks, Mom." Two simple words said by a simple guard.

Not so simple when those words are accidentally addressed to Princess Celestia.

Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie Lulamoon, and Twilight Sparkle all have one thing in common: They want to be the greatest Huntresses in Vale. With the Vytal Festival coming up at the end of the year, they have time to train and learn to become just that.

A RWBY Crossover.

Sunset Shimmer visits Equestria and spends some time taking care of animals with Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash is apparently not good with certain animals.

Sunset discovers very quickly that what you learn from the human world cannot be unlearned, ever.

Rated Teen and Sex for a pile of juvenile innuendo, though technically no bad language. Only technically.

A long, long time ago, there was a knight who set out on a noble quest to save a fair maiden and, if possible, slay the dragon keeping her captive.

Only... things don't always go as planned.

Many thanks to the incredibly talented hattonslayden for letting me use this picture for the cover art. Check out his work some time!

Update: featured? Oh my... I feel all tingly inside...

The nightmare of that evening haunts my every waking moment.

A flash of light.

Her powerful form with wings spread wide before me…

She was not just my mentor.

She was also my best friend and for that I will always be grateful for knowing her not as a Princess of Equestria, but as Celestia… The only one who really understood me...

But now? Now I can never tell her how much I truly loved her and how much she meant to me.

They took her away from me.

So I will take everything away from them.

There is a sequel! D=S-M2 and side story! D=S-M: Emerald Mirror

Much love and all credit to the artist: Ventious who owns that picture and is all kinds of awesome. While I have yet to get permission (working on that one at some point), I will remove the picture if the artist demands it so.

And much thanks to these guys for helping me edit/proof and generally bounce ideas about this monstrosity: Grammar Nazi Tach, Discorded Discord,Curify, Lord Inquisitor

Equestria stands on the brink of ruin. A necromancer has raised an army of the dead and is poised to plunge the world into darkness. Monsters and brigands roam freely across the land, preying upon the innocent.

Only one hope remains. Armed with swords, spells, snacks, and a bag of dice, five heroes band together to defeat the forces of evil… if their rolls are good enough.

Welcome to gaming night in Ponyville.

Sunset Shimmer loans Pinkie Pie a thumb drive.

Except that it's the wrong thumb drive. And that it contains exactly what you'd expect to find in the wrong thumb drive to loan away.

Rated Teen and Sex for discussions of pornography and self-love.

Rarity takes her new pet for a walk. Why does she get so many stares?

T-rated story featuring consensual pet play. (You'll probably enjoy the story more if you don't reveal the spoiler.)

Despite the picture, this story is not anthro. It's ponies.

Much thanks to Party Pop, Frowning Sugarcoat and Infinity Shade for their input on drafts of this story.

All ponies of the same race and age are exactly identical -- except for their manestyle, color, and cutie mark. That's why Fluttershy was able to be such a perfect copy of Rainbow Dash during Twilight's magic duel with Trixie.

Spike notices this, and contemplates the possibilities.... including, much to Twilight's chagrin, the possibility of changing her into Rarity for a day.

Can Twilight talk him out of this mad idea? Or is she doomed to spend an afternoon dressing up in classy outfits for Spike? Find out in the first and last chapter of this riveting tale.

The events of this story take place before Twilight Sparkle became an alicorn.

The nation of Equestria is struck by the most terrifying pandemic ever to afflict mortal ponies... the snuggle bug.
