Co-written with Professor Piggy. Rarity and Applejack go out for a fun night on the town with their friends, but when Rarity's flirtatious tendencies flare up, the evening rapidly turns into something more serious than either of them expected it to be. A RariJack story.

(Cover art provided by JazzyQ. Edit, now Jassie Q. Has a live reading which can be seen here.)

Life hasn't been easy for Prince Blueblood ever since a certain unicorn mare lashed out at him. In fact, he's barely a prince in everything but title.

Hoping to take his mind off his troubles, Blueblood pays a visit to a casino in Canterlot, where he soon discovers he's not the only one who's life has been ruined.

So, instead of simply playing cards, these ponies decide to see who's had it the worst. And each of them are convinced that their story cannot be beaten. And Blueblood will be darned if he sits out on this discussion.

(Based off of the Batman The Animated Series Episode "Almost Got 'Im".)

There was a question... and Spike wanted the answer. The curiosity of it was gnawing at his little dragon brain like gerbils in a vat of candy corn. In desperation, he turns to Cadence for help, and she's more than happy to assist.

After all, it's just a simple question. What's the worst that could happen?

(Takes place prior to Season 1. Rated for scattered innuendo.)

Bubble Berry asks Rainbow Blitz for advice on how to be manlier. Also, Dusk Shine's nemesis plots his revenge, and a mysterious creature attacks Ponyville.

This is set in the same universe as "On a Cross and Arrow." Gender swapped ponies, for the uninitiated. Because this story really wouldn't work if Bubble Berry was Pinkie Pie.

I think that even if the genderswapped ponies have the same personality, the fact that society treats people differently based on gender means that their stories might be slightly different. This is a story which is only really possible in the Cross and Arrow Universe.

Spoiler: I haven't actually read "On a Cross and Arrow". I've been meaning to. No time.

My submission for the February Write Off.

parasite [ˈpærəˌsaɪt]
noun
An animal or plant that lives in or on another (the host) from which it obtains nourishment. The host does not benefit from the association and is often harmed by it. In the case of some parasites they can take over the host body, controlling or morphing it to suite their inherent needs. Parasites are transmitted through many means: contact with an infected host, the sharing of liquids, and, in some cases, parasites may even hunt their intended prey.

"There will come a day,
When the omen hangs above,
And shadows veil the way..."

Everything was just fine in Equestria. That is, until that day came about. The day when the Red Moon rose, and when everything else began to fall. That day, and the days that followed, would put pen to paper on one of the darkest chapters in Equestrian history.

But, is the true enemy the one that hangs in the heavens above... or is it the one that we must face inside each of us?

It is the day after Applejack and Rainbow Dash made their relationship official, and Rainbow is giddy with excitement to see her new-borne mate. However, Applejack doesn't seem to share the same sentiment, and in the hours that follow, strange behaviour and hushed secrets make Rainbow Dash desperate for the truth. But soon, she finds out just how life can change... in just one day.

Receiver of a Honourable Mention for the AppleDash competition! Hooray! =D

Sandbar is excited because he just won six tickets to the Buckball World Series in Fillydelphia. After informing his friends of this great news, he proceeds to talk about the Fillydelphia Fillies, which includes telling them the names of the players.
That's when things get complicated.
Based on Abbott & Costello's Who's On First? comedy routine

Twilight and her five friends are transported during a botched spell, across dimensions to... Ponyville, Equestria? But not the same one that they knew. Sitting on a bench is Harpsy and Babar. The Doctoress avoids apples from an aspiring Applebuck. And in a library across town, six stallions join their forces as they try to decipher the appearance of filly look-alikes of themselves around Ponyville!

One evening, while in Canterlot to visit her former teacher, Twilight asks Celestia why Princess Luna is rarely ever seen at the castle.

And for the first time, Celestia tells the truth on the matter.

For the record, please know that this was NOT intended as another Celestia bashfic! I like Celestia! This is a story about one version of how I figured she might feel about herself!

Tantabus
