There was a seed.

We all know the story of how the Princess’ young student and five friends defeated Nightmare Moon and brought Princess Luna back to our lands. But what if the tale were false? What if the young Twilight Sparkle on the event of her entrance exam had not been rescued by Princess Celestia, but instead lost her mind among the power of her youthful surge and had to be sent away, far away before she could destroy all of Canterlot with her newfound power. Now the feral unicorn prowling the Everfree Forest only vaguely remembers her past, slipping away from constant terrifying attempts to capture her.

And she is beginning to remember what true power felt like.

Twilight gets a visit from a familiar stranger. Except it's not a stranger. It's Twilight, from the future. As future Twilight hangs out with past Twilight, past Twilight comes to a startling realisation... Her future self is kind of a jerk!

Quite obviously blatantly copied from based and expanded from this comic by 1trickpone.

Preread by Chicago Ted, thanks!

"Terror strikes Ponyville as an undead ruler roams the streets! Its shops and houses lay abandoned at her moaning hooves, and only one brave soul can save it! Will she have the heart though?"

"...Pinkie, shut up."

Written a couple weeks back, so none of my followers worry, please.

A rough comic rendition done by my patreon partner Knotted. Final will not be coming, as we have too much else to work on, so he provided the cover instead.

While Tirek is brooding in confinement, Celestia sends him an unexpected visitor.

Hey look, some person did a reading of it.

This story is a sequel to Fear Me, for My Name is Twaith!

Twaith attempts to masturbate, and quickly learns why no wraith on the planet has a sex drive.

This is one of the MANY reasons as to why Succulight exists as the mature rated Twaith story, but is also a showcase of what my versions of wraiths face in their life.

Pinkie Pie learns the weirdest thing about ponies in love; they nibble each other’s ears.

But, why?

Pinkie needs to know.

Warning: This story is a slow descent into wat. It’s mainly Random & Slice of Life, with minor Comedy and Romance elements.

An entry for the January 2016 write-off event, with the prompt “Look, I Can Explain…”.

Check out the sequel: Here!

Twilight gets called into a meeting with Luna and Celestia. The kingdom is hurting for money and there's only one way to get rich quick. Celestia is going to have to film them making porn.

Written for the Monthly Shipfics group.

This story was featured!? Wow! Thank you all so much!

For years, Twilight Sparkle and Queen Chrysalis have been at each other's throats. Both have experienced victory over the other, and both have experienced defeat. Out of all the creatures in Equestria, none despise each other the way the pony Princess and changeling Queen do. They seemed destined to remain locked in battle forever, or at least until one is finally dead at the hooves of the other. The cruel insults, the vicious loathing, and the powerful spells that have passed back and forth between them at each meeting have become the stuff of legend.

Imagine Twilight's surprise when she finds out changelings consider this dating.

And now they're married.
