Cloudsdale was a pretty chill place to hang out, until the Mare started pushing their weight around and messin' with the hood. With taxes, clothing regulations, and anti-jayflying laws, things are so not cool.

Now it's up to Swaggershy and Dashtag Yolo to blaze it before things turn totally sketch.

If you think this is serious, I feel bad for you, son. I got 99 good ideas but this fic ain't one.

The fourth chapter was written in collaboration with IceboxFroggie... You'll see why that's awesome.

If you hate this story just for its appearance, or somewhat offended by "swag," please post this picture so we can both get a laugh out of it.

Failing once in her attempt to take Canterlot and failing again in her attempt to take down Twilight, one would think Chrysalis would have cut her losses and let things be, but the queen has once again appeared, this time in broad daylight with no disguise and no army. Her weapon of choice? Diplomacy.

Now Twilight is having to deal with the changeling queen, but surely putting up with her antics will be worth the knowledge she's willing to provide about her mysterious race and the potential undiscovered agents still within their midst...right?

Takes place before Magical Mystery Cure and diverges from there.

Octavia always dreamed of meeting the musical prodigy who inspired her to begin playing the cello. The only problem is the young composer vanished nearly seven years ago. With the help of a fashion tycoon expanding into the music industry and a DJ who rocketed to fame in recent years, Octavia may learn more about her idol than anyone before. Unfortunately secrets seem to have a way of complicating things.

They say you should never meet your heroes after all.

Hello, Equestria. My name is Princess Luna, and my sister is an idiot. The object of her idiocy – her faithful student, Twilight Sparkle – appears to share her stupidity. Luckily, I am here to lend them a helping hoof.

I can't really blame them, though. They're just so adorable when they're completely clueless.

The stresses of being Equestria's newest Princess are starting to catch up with poor Twilight Sparkle. Recently she's barely even gotten to spend time with her friends! It's just meeting after meeting with snobby nobles and arrogant diplomats.

She needs a vacation. A place to get away where nopony can bug her for a few days. And she knows just where to go, to visit her friends in the mirror world!

But how will she react when she arrives to meet... Twilight Sparkle? And she's kissing Rainbow Dash?! WHAT IN THE HAY IS GOING ON?!

When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

*6-16-2017 Edit, added Rainbow Dash tag because it triggered knighty.*

Twilight Sparkle, new A+ student at Ponyville High, expects handsome jock Flash Sentry to capture her heart. But instead she'll meet a cowgirl who might do just that. Friendships will be made and feelings will grow. What ever will she do?

WARNING: Grammar mistakes+clichés

A former pink pony finds herself in a new, hostile world and a new friend who's perhaps even more hostile. A small, angry man finds himself with a new friend he didn't want. Can they make it through this new misadventure together, or is it the universe that needs to watch out for them?

The armies of the the free world — from the Myrmidons of Minos to the Border Guard of Equestria — unite to free the deer nation Nainuoc from a tyrant and destroy his secret doomsday devices.

Critics see a quagmire, cooked up on flimsy pretenses. Supporters see a just war of liberation, for the safety of the world.

Gilda and Trixie see comically large sums of money, drifting softly into their clutches.
