A few years had passed since Chrysalis broke free from her stone prison. After another failure—an embarrassingly quick one at that—she found herself faced with the unexpected: the prospect of being free.

But of course with most free things, there was a catch. The catch in this instance involving a certain lilac mare who happened to be one of her most hated mortal enemies, becoming a permanent supervisor of sorts.

A supervisor that wants to go out on those bothersome, time and energy wasting activities that they call: dates.

Oh, joy.

Button Mash didn't ask for much for Hearth's Warming Eve. He didn't ask to have his life upended, his home left in tatters, and to spend his evening packing to leave Ponyville forever.

On the other hoof, he also didn't ask to sit next to a stranger on the train, to be given her charity far more than he deserved, and to find in her a kinship he didn't expect.

But sometimes, you can find warmth in the most unlikely of places.

Limestone Pie is having her first Hearth's Warming away from home, meeting the parents of her marefriend, Spitfire. Still, with both mares known for their fearsome bellows and commanding personalities, chances of a quiet holiday are rather slim.

Written for Short-tale for Jinglemas 2022

After a gruesome accident, Spitfire is left alone and blind. The severe nature of her injury lands her in the hospital, despite her wishes. All she wants is to leave the institution and go back to do her part in the war, but a new roommate with a grave injury of her own forces her to learn that, despite her recovering eyesight, there’s more to a pony than what she can see.

Written for Bicyclette’s Crackship Contest, started as an entry for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Crackship Contest as well (and then like decupled in length into the current story.

Cover art: Yet another screenshot edit made by yours truly :P

Death and violence tags mostly for the very beginning of the story and some themes discussed throughout.

Canterlot’s best kept secret is the Incognito Cart, a food cart that sells all the greasy, deep-fried, spicy, butter-caked foods no posh pony would ever be caught dead eating. As part of the rules, every pony present must remain 100% anonymous.

But in a place where every pony is a Stranger, there might also be something else worth finding here...

Fourteen years after the Terrible Trio's attack, the windigos are dying. There is not enough strife and hate to sustain them.

One windigo approaches Princess Twilight for help.

Twilight and Cadance create a plan to help them. For the plan to work, they need the support of everycreature.

Let's hope they have that support.

Helped by Dewdrops and Sleepless!

Inspired by chris the cynic!

Now it's up to Soarin to carry on the memory.

A gift for my dear friend, Regidar, hope you enjoyed friendo.
