Bookshelves



  • Intend to Read 116 stories This is the stuff that's gotten my attention, but I haven't actually had the chance to either read or finish reading it. Either that or I'm waiting until it's completed to avoid the cliffhangers.


  • Liked 214 stories Basically a hoarding of anything ranging from something that got a smirk out of me, to stories that had me bawling like a child. If I liked it, it's here.


  • Legends 3 stories Here's the stories I consider to be the greatest works ever produced by the authors on this site. If your work is in here, consider yourself saluted. Also, if the story is part of a series, I will only add the first story to this shelf, and not the following sequels. They may get added to the Highly Recommended list though. In order to qualify for this shelf, the story in question must have deeply affected not only its readers, but the fandom itself. Past Sins is one example. It was a brilliant story, and cemented Nyx as an OC very few in the fandom don't know.


  • Legends... But... 0 stories I have a standing rule that the stories in my Legends shelf must be either completed or there's no real end to them. However, I don't want to leave out the amazing works that simply aren't labelled as complete, so here's where you'll find them.

  • Shadow Central 3 stories I never really thought I would ever make a shelf like this. I don't like most Dark stories, as they tend to go way too over the top... but I actually found one I enjoy. It turned my stomach a few times, but I enjoyed the story. Here's the shelf dedicated to the Dark stories I liked.


  • The FEELS!!! 15 stories If you're looking for something heartwarming, tooth rotting cute, or just all around feel good, then these are my personal suggestions.


  • PWNY-Verse 25 stories These are the tales of the PWNY-verse, tales of love, family, and friendship.


  • Can't... Stop...Laughing! 30 stories These are the stories that had me in stitches quite often as I was reading them. If you're looking for something to brighten up your day, look no further.

Now, with the help of a new magic spell that she created, Twilight is going to find out!

The first-ever SunLight Shipping Collaboration Story
Voted one of the Top 10 Sunset Shimmer Stories of 2017


  After Sunset Shimmer brings Sci-Twi’s strange magic-absorbing amulet back to Equestria, Princess Twilight Sparkle has a brilliant idea. If they combine the amulet and the magic of the portal, the two of them could hop between worlds at the push of a button!
  Who better to test out this fantastic new technology than two of the greatest minds in all of Equestria?
  They probably should have calibrated it first.


SunLight Sliders is the result of the Sunset Shimmer community's epic three-month collaboration project, where each author had three days to write a 500-1500 chapter in the ongoing saga of Sunset and Twilight Voyaging through the multiverse! Every author picks up where the last one left off... giving us one crazy journey in space and time!

There are many stories where Twilight tells off her friends after the Wedding. But that's not really Twilight's bag, she gets worried she's failed, or depressed, not angry. So here is a different bridal path, one where Twilight acts decisively to try and redeem herself in the eyes of her friends and sovereign, and ends up travelling to places she never imagined, facing dangers and foes she never dreamed of and making even stranger friends. Of course, there is still a 'reason you suck' speech delivered, but delivered by the last person anyone would expect...

Jak never found it unusual that he had a unicorn brother. Shining Armor had been there his entire life, as far as he could remember. Sure, Daxter often made a point of just how strange it was relative to everyone else in the village, but then again Jak himself was different from the rest of the villagers.

He never questioned that he looked somewhat different from everyone else. Never questioned that he was raised by Samos the Sage, alongside Samos' daughter Keira, whom he kinda-sorta liked and who kinda-sorta liked him, even if Samos himself didn't like that. Jak, by nature, wasn't the sort to question things.

Shining Armor, on the other hand - or hoof - had lots of questions, but no answers.

...yet.

21XX...

A dark period in the world's history. With the rise of Reploids, society was thought to enter a new golden age...until the rise of the Mavericks. Driven mad by viral infection - or simple greed and rage - these Reploids become a drastic threat to the world peace...and the conflict between them and the Maverick Hunters would tear the world apart.

However, a shining light of hope remains in Dr. Light's final creation...Megaman X. With his adopted pony daughter at his side, he shall-

General Iroh. Fire Nation hero. First born son of Fire Lord Azulan. The Dragon of the West. It was thought he would be the greatest warrior in the history of the Fire Nation.

But all that changed when the war claimed his son's life. This changed him, and he turned his back on the war.

This was a necessary event. Iroh had a role to play in bringing balance back to the world...but to play that role, he first had to be broken down, so that he could be rebuilt. This truth was self evident in the spirit realm.

But one particular spirit felt this was unfair to Iroh. The wheels of fate are cruel to those caught in the gears, but this particular spirit felt that Iroh deserved kindness. And so this spirit sent Iroh one who would help him to rebuild himself.

And so, shortly after his son's funeral, Iroh would find a creature sent by the spirits, the likes of which he never would have imagined...a pretty pink pony princess.

Somepony to love...and be loved by.
