This story is a sequel to Leading Causes

Twilight Sparkle has more than a little anxiety about Spike's upbringing. In the wake of the Molt and the Sludge fiasco, those anxieties are clearer and stronger than ever. Like any good caretaker, she took advantage of an opportunity to learn more about dragons, including their needs and, most importantly, their vulnerabilities.

What started as a casual conversation about death for Smolder spiraled out of control into a full-fledged princess freakout, one that she is in the middle of. When it becomes clear that her teachers are completely hopeless when it comes to dragons, it's up to her to take Spike under her wing and teach him what they can't, one lesson at a time.

After a surprising number of requests for a sequel to "Leading Causes", I finally came up with something of a quasi-anthology of Smolder's lessons to Spike. While I do have a fair number of ideas, expect sizable gaps between updates.

Rated for academic descriptions (but no depictions) of death, and possible future scenes of hunting and fishing at a level slightly too mature for an E rating. Warning tags may be added later if I, or any commenters, feel they're needed.

Starlight Is Being Weird - Celeestiaa Starlight Is Being Weeird (Fanfic Reading - Comedy/Random MLP)

One day when her sister goes on a trip with her friends, A young filly named Sweetie Belle tries to find herself something to do in order to cure her boredom. However, when she was getting everything that she needed in order to go crusading, she finds a strange looking device from inside her closet. One that she assumes is a watch.

Turns out... that watch has a powerful companion and friend inside it that her mother knew when she was only her age. Now with her mother gone though, the figure named Rena takes it upon herself to look after the children of her previous partner. And to teach the youngest one, Sweetie Belle, to stand up for herself and to be strong at heart. Just like her mother once was. Sure, it may sound like a lot of weight on her shoulders with the almost daily shenanigans that Equestria is known for and the fact that there's also this Digital World that is almost unknown to modern Ponykind, but hey. Nopony said she was going to do this alone.

A Displaced tale involving Renamon from Digimon. Takes place at the beginning of Season 5 when The Mane Six go off to Our Town. You can blame Solphestus for this idea xD

Updates for this story will not be consistent and will happen at random times. I want to update this more often, but I already have a lot of things going on at the minute

Sunset Shimmer was getting ready for bed like she did every night and was casually wishing that she wanted to be a pony again. It was a thought that crossed her mind from time to time so she hadn't really thought much about it but the next day she discovers that that quick wish had come true. Now she and her friends have to figure out what happened and how to fix it. Meanwhile Sunset is becoming more and more comfortable in her pony body and she starts to wonder should they fix this?

Credit to the idea of this story goes to friend Tyler as he was the one who started talking about the whole Sunset turning back into a pony thing in a serious light while I was making jokes about it. Thanks for helping me write this buddy and I hope you like it.

For those looking for an update, I'll be starting Act II some time this year. Sorry, but college is kicking me pretty hard and I have to focus. Until then, cheers everyone.

Scattered around Ponyville, multiple ponies begin to wake up as humans. Mixed in with them are four actual humans that have no idea where they are. As everyone finds out, they have no memory of what has happened, why they are human, or even what is going on around them.

Ponyville, save for the survivors-turned-human, is entirely abandoned and, what's more concerning, it is sealed within a massive magical barrier. With no memory to go on, everyone trapped inside must band together to find out what has happened.

The amazing cover art is done by Mix-Up! Here's their YouTube (speedpainting!) & DeviantArt too!

Edited is done by a friend of mine who wants to be known simply as 'The Editor.'

This story is a standalone sequel of A Brony Life; a story I originally wrote years ago. However, this is a standalone story and it's not required to read/know the original story. Any references, characters, or plot lines that come up from that story will be newly introduced in this story.

Thank you to everyone who messaged me during the time between this and the original story. A lot of your personal messages meant so much to me.
