Ser Ornstein, Captain of the Four Knights, Proud Dragonslayer in the service of Gwyn, the Lord of Sunlight. Or so it was, once. No more, however. Endless cycle after endless cycle of Chosen Undead have led Ornstein to death after death. Now the cycle is broken, and everything is reborn as it were, however. . . why is the cycle over? And what happens now?

Equestria, a peaceful land of harmony and coexistence, where friendship is a study endorsed by the crown and dragons are defeated with a stern talking-to. But how long can the citizens of Equestria and its governers keep the peace when the fabric of another universe starts to seep into their world?

Nightmare Moon; fabled mistress of darkness and fallen protector of dreams. A legend and nothing more, right?

The ponies of Equestria couldn't be more wrong, especially when Nightmare returns during the Summer Sun celebration and proclaims eternal night, with no Celestia in sight. All of the ponies of the land shall kneel and praise their Queen as she brings forth her beautiful night and they shall praise her magnif-wait. Where are there wardrobes? Why can she clearly see their cutie marks?

Is there a draft in here? Celestia's got some splaining to do.

Sorta a funny one-shot. Happy April fool's!

The Elements of Harmony. The faces of inspiration that keep Equestria safe. It always helps morale for the public to know the ones that protect them... or so they think.

The Elements are not the only team keeping Equestria safe. They are merely the one that all of the kingdom knows. There are others, each made up of members just as varied, normal, and yet all are still protectors. Outside of the public eye, they are free to keep the kingdom safe from threats only a few would even know about. Each and every one of them is just as much a hero to ponies as the Elements are.

Of course, this means they are subject to the same fears. A wise man once said: "Who guards the guardians?"

Perhaps it is time they found an answer.

A collaboration between Rhino, RLYoshi, and myself, told in the style of two simultaneous comic series. Thanks for all the help, guys!

Story image temporary and by paradox-a-go-go (fun name to say!). Oh, and we're not jumping straight into the title arc. Trust me, you understand why when we get there.

Nic Cage is the greatest actor ever, but what happens when he meets two alicorn princesses? Well if you read this (and I strongly urge that you don't) You'll find out.

This is me pretty much making fun of all the people who go overboard on April Fool's Day by going overboard myself, just to prove how ridiculous it is...

Not to be taken seriously by any means, and if you do take it seriously... you might need to see someone for some issues

Thirty years ago — before Luna's return, before the Mane Six, before everything — Equestria stands on the brink. A harsh winter threatens starvation, discontent threatens to bubble over to full-blown rebellion, and to the south lurk dragons, hungry for vengeance and waiting for a moment of Equestrian weakness.
But Celestia knows how the game is played, and if anyone can right the ship of state, it's her. No one can dance on the edge of a blade like she can; after all, she was there when it was forged. Slowly, delicately, she charts her course —
And then everything goes wrong.

Blackacre is somewhat different fare than the usual you might find here, telling a much darker story than the sort we usually see on Saturday mornings. It won't be for everyone, but then again what is? This is a story of the long con, of the world as it is — a story both of those who reason why, and those who do and die.

Blackacre has a relatively long history. The notion took root in August 2013; it gestated for a time and took its first real steps as part of NaNo in November 2013. It took a finalized shape around April 2014, whereupon the editing started. The text here was updated in July 2014 to reflect those edits — a comprehensive revision and polishing of the text, including several new chapters and several entirely rewritten ones.
The text you see here is the final version of Blackacre; at least, I don't intend on working it over again. That's not to say I don't welcome and encourage comments, questions, or suggestions, either on the text itself or the style; I certainly spent long enough working on it the first time around, and if you enjoyed it (or didn't!) I'd be happy to talk.
Besides, there will always be room for improvement — and there will be a next time.

Blackacre has no sequel proper. At least, not yet. It does, however, have companion stories, set at different times in the same universe:
Dr. Strangehorn; or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Elements — a one-shot set in Twilight's future, well after her rise to power.
Twelve Angry Mares — an adaptation of the classic story of a murder trial, set after Blackacre but before the show.

Rarity, element of generosity and fashionista extraordinary has a secret. A terrible secret. A horrible secret. A terrible... horrible... ABSOLUTELY dreadful...... THE MOST DIABOLICAL KIND OF SECRET THAT IS SO SECRET THAT IT CANNOT BE DISCOVERED secret.

A secret so shocking that if it were discovered, it would destroy not only her life, but her friendships, her image, her other relationships, and possibly but not really her career. Oh, and let us not forget that it would be THE WORST POSSIBLE THING!!!

Her secret.... is that she likes.... METAL...

Also metal references. GLORIOUS AMOUNTS of metal references.

Cuddles meet crusades, and hilarity ensues.

After another failed attempt at Cutie Marks, the CMC are leaving the forest when a sonic boom startles them all.
Scootaloo thinks it's Rainbow Dash and runs off to find her, Apple Bloom following suit.

Sweeite Bell, however, goes into the forest again, where she saw a flash of light. What she finds is an injured creature laying in a crater that doesn't match even Everfree Forest weirdness.

She decides to take the creature to Flutteshy's so it can get better.

This creature however, can't remember what happened or how it got to Equestria. it's memory is vague and it is haunted by nightmares of destruction and the feeling of losing someone important to it.

Set after an alternate ending to Unova's SurvivalCrisis! from Pokemon Black and White: Rival Destinies for Pokemon and before It Ain't Easy Being Breezies for MLP.

Can Twilight Sparkle stop the new menace that's suddenly taking control of her beloved home?

Spoilers: No

A My Little Dashie parody? What a new and refreshing concept, I tell you, I'm so original it hurts.

When your life is absolutely fantastic, sometimes it takes a snobby jerk to fuck it all up.

Collab between me and Sliverfish.
