Celestia would do almost anything to ensure the safety of her beloved younger sister, even if it meant giving in to the demands of a group of scoundrels and thieves.

Luna? Luna doesn't worry about her sister's safety. After all, nopony had dared to kidnap the Solar Princess for hundreds of years.

The only thing this latest group needed was a reminder why.

A quick short story that popped into my head while doing research for other works. Fair warning, I'm my own editor so if anything slipped through the cracks, that's why. Enjoy!

Technically a crossover, if only barely.

Featured 11/18/17 - Wow, that was quick.

You love your friends in Ponyville, you really do, but you have your suspicions about one of them. Pinkie Pie is so light hearted, bouncy, and carefree, you've begin to wonder if she's really a pony at all. Instead, maybe she's actually a balloon! It seems crazy, but you jut have to find a way to prove it, no matter the cost.

Yeah, this is pretty not-gross and horrible. No vomit, gore, sex, etc. I'm as shocked as you are.

I got a job at taco hut in order to make some extra dough. I only worked for a day. Four hours, in fact. This is the story of why three cute teenage girls made me quit.

After Luna's terrible pancakes, Celestia is determined to teach her sister how to cook. However, she drastically underestimates how difficult that will be. At least the ensuing chaos isn't all bad in the end.

Cover art is not mine.

After Twilight and Rainbow Dash accidentally lock themselves in a freezing room, Twilight uses her sharp wits and quick thinking to help them survive these harsh conditions. They snuggle together in bed. It is completely logical and is for no other purpose than survival. Totally.

Contains awkward snuggling between two straight mares.

Twilight's just received her official government escort license, which allows her to legally take on passengers during a teleport. Unfortunately, the fee was hideously expensive -- enough to completely wipe out all her spare bits. And there's a major purchase coming up which she refuses to put off. So what better way to raise the money than by giving her freshly-approved skill a workout? After all, it's winter, it's cold, ponies will get home all the faster, and since Twilight knows what 'escort' means, so will everypony else.

It's probably best not to bet on that last part.

Uncle lives a very fulfilling life at his antique shop. It's peaceful and quiet for the most part, just how he likes it. Of course, he's a skilled chi wizard, so he knows better than to actually let the universe know that he's content. So he complains.

A lot.

Then one day, a basket containing three infant magical ponies arrives, and his peaceful life goes out the window...to be replaced with, perhaps, something a little more than contentment.

The universe, apparently, is smarter than he gave it credit for, because now he has "Three More Things!" to complain about to hide just how much they mean to him.
