There is a weird machine placed in the halls of the castle, everyone knows what it does. It's not a mystery at all. Princess Luna's unexplainable hatred of the machine is the real mystery.

Shall she prevail against overwhelming odds or lose herself in the deepest of pits? Let's find out.

Pinkie asks for Rarity’s help confessing her feelings to Twilight. Rarity is an avid reader of old romance novels, naturally this means she thinks she knows exactly how to charm a pony.

This can only go wrong.

Random story I wrote, matchmaker Rarity is very fun to write.

Inspired by Leave No Trope Unturned

(Collab with yodajax10. Takes place immediately after "Father Knows Beast". Featured on 4/02/2024.)

Spike still wonders about his past, about where he came from and who his parents might be. Determined to get some answers, he decides to visit the one pony who can help him: Princess Celestia.

Flying to Canterlot on his own power, Spike attempts to get answers from Princess Celestia. But Twilight and all of Spike's friends catch up to him before then, worried about his abrupt departure from Ponyville.

Princess Celestia, however, decides that the time has come to share the truth about Spike's past. The truth will leave everyone shocked and saddened.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders test the urban legend of writing to Princess Celestia at 3am. Everything goes wrong.

May you find many wonderfully atrocious grammar errors, if there are any o.o.
