(Salem Saberhagen comes from the television series "Sabrina The Teenage Witch". Featured from 11/02/21 to 11/03/21.)

Fluttershy is no stranger to making friends with animals, and is no stranger to some of those animals being weird and unique in their own way. But she's never encountered an animal like this before.

The pegasus finds what appears to be a stray black cat one day and takes him in out of the kindness of her own heart. But this black cat can talk and has his own name: Salem Saberhagen.

When the initial shock of a talking cat wears off, Fluttershy becomes interested in Salem as she seeks to understand what makes the black cat who he is. As for Salem, he mostly cares about having something to do while all by himself in an unfamiliar world.

When the princesses receive word of a mysterious illness breaking out at an archaeological survey site in the Badlands, they send Twilight, Spike, and Starlight to investigate. They find a bizarre sequence of markers, signs, and hints left long before pony civilisation as they know it, leading the way to place long forgotten by history. Together, the ponies must uncover their meaning, before an ancient evil from a past not even remembered by ponies leaves its mark on the future.

Thanks to Alden MacManx for proof reading.

What if Equestria wasn't all sunshine and rainbows? What if the lands were wild, untamed, and ruled by powerful (and corrupt) nobles in the names of distant kings and queens? What if magic belonged not to every unicorn, but only to the privileged (and persecuted) few?

Camaraderie is Sorcery is a dark fantasy retelling of the story of Friendship is Magic. In this Equestria, the land is divided into kingdoms hungrily eyeing each others' lands and resources. This is a world where peasants are born, work, suffer, and die without their overseers shedding a tear. It is a world where bandits and monsters occupy both the wild places and the civilized ones (but in different forms). This is the world where Twilight Sparkle lives. Cant'r Laht, a shining city perched on the edge of a mountain with more nobles and mages than it knows what to do with, has been Twilight's home her whole life. Now, as the one thousandth summer solstice of the Fourth Age approaches, she will leave Cant'r Laht and depart for the tiny hamlet of Ponieville, where five companions await her. These Brave Companions, as the ballads will come to commemorate them, are already bound by destiny, though they do not know it yet. For who would ever imagine that a sorceress, a farmer, a Hunter, a blacksmith, a druidess, and a baker would ever become comrades with the strength to stop the end of the world?

Author's Note: I drew inspiration from several dark or realistic fantasy sources for the world of Camaraderie is Sorcery, but the most influential was the world of Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher novels and CD Projekt RED's video game series of the same name.

This story is a sequel to Canterlot Has Fallen

Time marches forward in Equestria, and yet the allure of "what if?" remains. Twilight wonders about the "what ifs" as she tries to guide Equestria to a bright and prosperous future. Cadance wonders about the "what ifs" as she sees her daughter growing.

The power of "what if" tempts once again, but are the little ponies really ready for the answers?

Since the downfall of Handsome Jack, the six vault hunters responsible for his downfall have had many adventures over the months since. They've reaped the rewards from the Lost Treasure of the Sands, conquered the Campaign of Carnage and became the number one badasses on Pandora, hunted big game alongside Sir Hammerlock and ventured into the fantasy world that Tiny Tina had created in Bunkers and Badasses. Though, since then, out of all the adventures that they've been through... Nothing would even stack up to the situation they get themselves in this time.

When the six vault hunters receive an echo message about a stranger in Sanctuary that knows the whereabouts of a Vault, they hear him out and decide to take on the task of finding it and opening it. However... none of them actually know the full extent of what hey were getting themselves into... or the chaos that would result from it. Because there were several details that this... stranger... forgot to mention to them.

One detail being that the vault... is on another planet far different from Pandora. VERY different.

Hey there everyone and everypony, This a story that me and FrostTheWolf are writing together. Borderlands 2 crossover with MLP:FIM, Read to find out how our Vault Hunters tackle the world of Equestria.

It’s often been said that horses ponies cannot operate automobiles.

Whether that’s true or not, ponies shouldn’t buy a car beyond their skill level, even if they’ve got the bits to afford it. It’s only a matter of time before the car winds up a twisted wreck in the woods.

Now with a reading by StraightToThePointStudio

Chrysalis Chrysanthemum is one of the most powerful, feared individuals in the world of corporate business. There is nothing she can't do if she puts her mind to it. At least, that's what she always thought. Then a girl named Sunset Shimmer drops into her life. Chrysalis is set to discover that of all the ways she has succeeded, there's one thing she failed utterly at. Make that three things.

Now she must face the hard truth and find some way to fix it. If only she had the faintest clue how.

The story of Chrysalis as a mother in two parts. Inspired by a long-held and beloved headcanon of mine.

Pre-reading done by Wandering Twilight, Ghost Mike, ShiningBeacon, and AuroraDawn.

Centuries ago, Chrysalis was the daughter of a nobleman in Italy. Then, she was the slave of a tyrant in Equestria. After that, she was the queen of the changelings. Then she was no one; a broken soul waiting to die. And then... she was saved.

Now, Chrysalis is no more than the child she always was, before fate and the whims of monsters stole her innocence. Now, Chrysalis has a family, and a new lease on life. She lives in the care of Celestia, the human counterpart to one of her oldest enemies in Equestria. The very same caring woman who pulled her from the depths of despair after her final defeat as Queen Chrysalis. What's more, her life is about to take another drastic turn: she's starting school at Canterlot High.

For one who has seen and suffered as much as Chrysalis, high school should be a breeze. However, it comes with its own set of challenges. New friends, new enemies, and more homework than she can blast with changeling magic! But more challenging still are the old demons still festering in the depths of her heart and mind. If Chrysalis has any hope of truly starting life anew, she'll have to put those demons to rest once and for all. And what better way to do so than with the love and support of family and friends?

Chrysalis always needed love to survive, after all.
