This story is a sequel to Discordant

Almost ten years have passed since Scootaloo helped free Discord. She’s learned to live with the consequences, but it’s never easy. After being fired from the local weather control team, she receives a letter from Princess Celestia, offering her a job as an assistant flight instructor for gifted pegasi. With no better options, she reluctantly accepts. But why her, what game is Celestia playing, and what exactly is going on in Canterlot?

The world was left without magic after the Discordian wars. Twilight, a budding new student of Princess Celestia, manages to form a spark, the first magic in two thousand years. With Celestia's training they hope to bring magic back to every unicorn in Equestria.

When Rarity and Rainbow Dash discover that they disagree on a point close to their hearts, they decide to settle their differences the only way two mature mares can: by forcing each other to embarrass themselves.

Being a cowboy is usually very straightforward. Frank, however, finds himself in over his head when he meets a unicorn - a very whiny, needy unicorn with a compulsive need to be fabulous and an unexpected knack for gunslinging.

In a world where nothing comes easy and everything is incredibly dirty, a man and a pony are going to have to rely on each other to make it through.

Every pony believes they know the facts, but it turns out there's a twist. Short stories to make you rethink Equestria.

SF (canon species only; no humans) Ponies were magically and genetically engineered to be the perfect servitor race. They are powerful, adaptable, intelligent and completely under the control of their creators. A laboratory accident frees one such pony from her mental chains, but how can one mare save herself and the rest of her kind if she doesn't even know she's a slave?
This is not the Equestria you know and these are not your little ponies... not yet, anyway.

A Soot-Covered World, book 1.

Dinky Hooves is a very unique pony. While her mother was a pegasus, her father was a being known as a Time Lord that looked like an earth pony. As a filly, she was just like a regular unicorn.

Until one day she learns first unleashes a magic like nothing almost any other pony has seen and gets her cutie mark. Once that happens, the unicorn must figure out not only how to control her powers, but find a balance in herself. Fortunately, she might just have helpful inspiration from a hero.

It's an offhand remark, “You're only young once,” but for Twilight Sparkle it strikes an unsettling chord. After all, everypony has to grow up; and when ponies grow up, they move away; and when they move away, they fall out of touch...

Terrified that her friends are going to drop out of her life, Twilight resolves to spend every waking moment with them. She also gives up sleeping.

This can only end well.

Dedicated to absent friends, to all our times together, and to reunions yet to come. Don't ever stop being awesome.

Twilight Sparkle loves being a librarian. She gets to spend all day surrounded by her favorite things in the world—books—and best of all, nopony ruins it by trying to talk to her (or at least if they do, they have to be quiet about it).

But when the new head of the Equestrian Library Association gives her an ultimatum, Twilight's future as Ponyville's librarian will hinge on her ability to face the most horrifying creatures she's ever had to deal with:

No, not her new boss (who's clearly up to no good). Not the cult of the Dark God Cacophonon. Not even the strange book that won't. Stop. Staring. Worse than all that.

Library Patrons.

While researching a new spell, a miscalculation leads to Twilight and Pinkie Pie switching bodies. They decide to hide the accident and live as one another - for Science! What could possibly go wrong?
