Now with reading
And with dramatic radioplay

When an evil long put to sleep seal is broken, Twlight and her friends set out to stop it. But what happens when the very thing you use to defeat your enemies, only feeds the beast. The princesses and even Discord are no match. But when one realizes its true nature, a sacrifice must be made but can she do it Give it all up, all of it. based off Doctor Who parasitic star

Twilight Sparkle was banished from Equestria a long time ago for a crime she didn't commit. The rest of the Mane 6 have been searching for her to tell her that she can return. When they do find Twilight, they realize that the trials of surviving outside Equestria have changed their old friend. Not all the changes are necessarily good.

As they return to Equestria, they must figure out who is opposing them. Shadows lurk in every corner, enemies watching for a single misstep. Not to mention, Twilight's shadows are creeping up on her. But even if they do manage to face the trials and troubles, do they have what it takes to face what awaits them back home?

A collection of (mostly) unconnected one-shots all based around pairings as chosen by the Wheel of Shipping. Each day throughout March, I will spin the wheel to produce a pairing and then write a one-shot about that couple. Some stories will be long, some short, some comedy, some drama, some tragedy, some serious, some not etc.

Wheel of Shipping, turn, turn, turn, show us the pairing that we should burn ...

It's been a hundred years since Twilight was crowned. Most of her original friends are gone. Now, only Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy remain, each with a spark of something special keeping them past their time.

But unlike Twilight, neither of them has a claim to true immortality.

Winner of the 15th Quills and Sofas Speedwriting contest. The prompt was "A Worthy End." The contest was a two-parter, and each chapter was written in an hour, and then expanded slightly afterwards.

Sandbar has invited all of his friends from the School of Friendship for a get-together before Nightmare Night. To get into the spirit of the season and learn a bit about each other's races, he decides that they should all share scary stories from their cultures.

Ocellus thinks they seem sort of similar.

Thanks to Petrichord for help with some proofreading and brainstorming.

Legendary Ace Mobius One, an Independent States' Allied Forces (ISAF) fighter pilot has finally managed to return home after destroying the Megalith weapon by himself effectively ending the war between Erusia and ISAF. But that peace would only last a few short years. The Free Erusian forces as they have dubbed themselves have planned a massive counter attack against one of the largest cities under control of the Osea Federation... November City, home to Mobius One and several million people.

Mobius One being the hero he is, takes to the skies once more alongside his fighter wing. However... strange things begin happening the in the skies above that not only transports him and his friends to an entirely different world, but the enemy as well.

Now Mobius One must fight against the enemy in the land called Equestria, aided by... talking pastel ponies who can wield magic and fly... seems legit. A new war is on the horizon... one that will change the fate of both Earth, and Equestria forever.

Speed Reader may only be a temporary product of a fusion spell brewed by Dash and Twilight, but she's still got the Wonderbolt Barracks to herself for a whole half hour before she splits again. Just long enough to tangle with someone whom her halves would most certainly kick to the curb if either of them were in control.

But they're not in control. Speed Reader is. She can read ponies like books, and Lightning Dust is after something in the archives. Something important.

Now with a written review!

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every Thursday for the foreseeable future.

Apple Bloom wants to grow up. She's sure she does. Surrounded by the family that founded a town, shaped it, and made it what it is today, she finds herself all the more invested in becoming a part of this legacy.

Yet as Apple Bloom's interest in the legacy grows, so does her interest in a pony who never had one.

After all, sometimes there's a good reason to step outside. To fly on your own. To look beyond the herd.
