This story is a sequel to Looking Glass

Page is stuck. He never wanted to be a Prince. But he can't just... stop. Ponies are depending on him now and he's feeling the pressure.

Being a Prince isn't all that it's cracked up to be. It's all work and so much responsibility. Ponies plot against you constantly. Luckily, sometimes it's for your own good.

Other times... not.

Big thanks to Arratra for betaing this one.

While out enjoying the “natural scenery,” Featherbangs is pummeled by a fruity rain, leaving him critically injured. Big Macintosh is riddled with guilt and sadness over his crimes. Can his regret engender a greater fate for the both them?

Spike and Thorax have been living together for a while. One day, Thorax comes home and seems just a little bit different. Spike has a conversation with him about colors.

Discord has had a long and interesting life, especially since the Draconequus realizes he's hopelessly in love with his Ogres and Oubliettes party members, try as he might to deny it.

Short, rough entry for the M/M Shipping Contest 2022! Discord/Adult Spike/Big Mac poly fluff. Rated Teen with appropriate tag for some suggestive humor, but nothing happens "on screen." AU, for obvious reasons.

(Credit for cover image - Spike's "Cutie Mark" by MidnightShimmer_the_Unicorn on MLPForums, Discord's "Cutie Mark" by RAGErER on DA, Big Mac's was found on Derpibooru, artist not credited. I just threw them together for a "Cover Image.")

Called to The Crystal Empire by Shining Armor, Sunburst is tasked with interviewing their newest arrival from the north: Former King Sombra.

As he tries to find out the hows and whys of this enigmatic villain's mysterious return, Sunburst finds there's something more lingering beneath the surface.

And despite wanting to be left alone to rot, Sombra finds connection to a past he'd prefer to forget and decisions unable to be taken back.

Written for the 2022 M/M contest!

Once upon a time, there was a young unicorn who was scarred and battered by the cruel world until he was forced to retreat behind the walls of a solitary life as a bitter and spiteful creature. As he grew up, he remained a lonely recluse, with only his best friend for occasional companionship.

Until one day when he found something the world had treated even more callously and cruel than himself. She was a changeling, badly wounded and crushed until she hung onto life by a slender thread. The only chance she had for surviving her injuries was love, but that was no chance at all, for she was a monster in pony society.

And who could ever love a beast.

Rated T for references to sex, crude language, obnoxious behavior, and weathervanes.

Flash Sentry really needs to watch his words. Particularly when talking to certain individuals.

From the All The Time In The World writeoff.me contest where it placed 9th.

Queen Chrysalis has given Princess Celestia and Princess Luna an unwelcome gift for Hearth’s Warming. Thankfully, they can regift it to somepony. Who can regift it to somepony. Who can…

Twilight has a secret coltfriend who nobody knows about.  Not even her.

And he’s not too sure either.

Then Luna gets involved, and it only gets weirder.

At one time, Mount Olympus was the home of the Greek gods. Then they let the first pony in.
