Fruit Heart, a market-seller mare, finds her house smashed after the Canterlot invasion, and to her troubles a changeling was responsible.

Now broken and hurt; Fruit Heart finds herself looking after the angry creature, but as time goes on, can she help the changeling see what kindness can do, or will his feral instincts force her away.

And will she adapt to caring for the changeling.

New cover image by Manedblackwolf. Thank you very much, much appreciated.

A changeling who has lived at the side of an Equestrian mare for most of his life finds himself in the middle of the changeling invasion of Canterlot. He has no idea who the invading queen or hive are, and just wants to stay where he is, and more importantly, who he is.

The spell that ends the invasion doesn't discriminate, though. With his old pony form irreversibly stripped away, and the whole kingdom out to hunt his kind, he tries to keep his family together, and struggles to find his place in the world.

Please comment! Even now, I'd love to hear what people think as they read through

This story is a sequel to Brushed Away

Despite being one of the few Gryphons living in the land of Equestria, Troius Clawston couldn't be happier with how his life has been. Along with having good friends and a stable job in Weather Patrol, Troy is happiest about his life for one reason: Canvas, the Earth Pony artist that he saved and befriended, who grew to become so much more.
However, before the two can begin their lives together, Troy has to overcome a new challenge in his life. Something he never thought he would have to face until now...

Telling his family.

Because of strong Gryphon values which look down on alternative relationships, how will Troy's family react when they discover he's not only with someone of a different species, but of the same gender? As traditions clash with taboos, how will the Gryphon handle telling his brothers and parents, while still staying with the stallion he cares about? Can he keep everyone together, or will family bonds break under pressure?

TRIGGER WARNING: This universe supports Flashlight, so if you are still hurting over your lost waifu, then turn back and leave. No need to be hating on here.

Souvenir, a pony that enjoys travelling far and wide collecting and selling items, decides to return to Equestria after stopping at the Griffon Kingdoms far to the east. Only problem is, she doesn't know how to get back from there, and is forced to travel with a griffon warrior called Alastair, also on his way to Equestria, who is just as happy with the idea as she is. That is to say, not at all. However, they are going to be together a long time before getting to Equestria, and they might start to like each other.

This is my first attempt at a romantic comedy story, also my first fanfic that isn't dark. Rated Teen because of some jokes and implications.

This story is a sequel to Brushed Away 2.5: Hearth's Warming Morning

After months of planning, organization, and the occasional disagreement, Troius Clawston and Canvas can finally see the anticipated day of their union in sight. And with Troy's family returning to Equestria early to help with the festivities, nothing can go wrong... right?

However, considering how much there still is to do, and what kind of family Troy has, sometimes things can get a little complicated. And even with most of Ponyville in assistance for the couple's big day, things are more than likely to spin out of control on the way to the wedding aisle. Especially when a group of Gryphons is planning one of the bachelor parties.

Big thanks to JackAnarchy for the cover art.

On a warm, rainy afternoon, two young ponies take shelter in a gazebo. One is hoping to find a job at a bakery nearby, and just wants the rain to go away so she can make it to her interview. The other isn't really a pony, and just wants the rain to go away so he isn't caught.

Life tends to work that way, I suppose.

From the outside looking in, life has never been better for Silent Knight. He is the first pony in a long line of Royal Guard ancestry to earn a commission, he has a loving mare by his side, and he bears the kingdom’s highest honor for bravely risking it all to protect Princess Luna. The future shines bright with potential, but the shadows of the past lurk at every twist and turn that lies ahead.

Guilt, anger, and regret are constantly at war in the depths of Silent Knight’s mind. Despite his best efforts to enjoy the life he has, he finds himself trapped in the past, reliving the moment when his unit was ambushed and his ponies were killed. He refuses to show any weakness, instead hiding everything behind a tough face to protect himself and those he loves. But his true feelings—and what he plans to do with them—shackle everything he holds dear with chains forged in secret.
