This story is a sequel to Equestrian Fanfiction

Two months after the launch of the Midnight Castle fan fiction site, Lyra and her fellow Nightlings have organized a meet-up in Canterlot. The agenda is simple: have fun, discuss their favorite human fiction series, and see the faces behind the usernames.

Special thanks to RK_Striker_JK_5 for editing.

This story is linked to the daily Equestrian Fanfiction (and contains reveals as to the participants' identities).

Rarity treats Applejack and Spike to a slap-up feed, but her favourite eatery lets her down.

'So you want to succeed? You want to be something? Talk to me when the candle's nearly out. Talk to me at eleven fifty-nine. Talk to me on earth's last day, and then we'll see how serious you really are.'

Apple Bloom finds herself trapped in an inexplicable nightmare.

This story is very surreal.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash meet for the first time in years. Then they race.

Ever tried hurling your beanie? Princesses Celestia and Luna encounter said activity’s inherent competitiveness.

A huge thank you to Cygnia for providing this story with its magnificent artwork.

From the stone age to the modern world, Celestia guides her little ponies into the future. And she needs to keep playing. Just one more turn.

Always one more turn.

Done as a speed-writing exercise in about three hours. Totally unedited. Enjoy!

After Starlight hypnotized her friends, Twilight goes out of her way to teach them how to control their own minds before someone else does.

It doesn't go too well.

When crime runs rampant across Equestria, two individuals step up to help:

Officer Cord and Detective Shy.

Even if no one asked them to.

Before the reign of the Regal Sisters, a pony gazed into the abyss and lost her sanity.
In her madness, she was granted foresight and issued a prophecy that told of the reign of two sisters up to the creation of a gate to the void, the existenceless abyss her insanity and power came from.
More than a thousand years have passed since then. The Equestrians have forgotten about the prophecy and the cult that the mad seer has sparked is all but gone. Only a single follower remains, perpetuating a disputable "gift" passed throughout generations.
Finally, the stars are right and the Princess of the Night returns, starting a series of events that culminate in the ascent of a pony whose magic might be strong enough to breach the boundaries of her dimension.
Now all the demented cultist has to do is to get her to do just this.

Takes place during the second half of the third season. For the most part, at least.
Should not directly contradict show canon. Apparent contradictions are either intentional and will be eventually resolved or errors on my part.

Shout-out to Cygnia for being my lovely preliminary reader.
If you find grammatical errors, please point them out so I can exterminate them.

(This is an old story I wrote three years ago during season 1)

Twilight Sparkle's birthday has come around, and Rainbow Dash is unimpressed with Rarity's present. When Applejack pokes a bit of fun with her friend, Rarity becomes unusually upset. Twilight Sparkle investigates her friend's feeling, learning something she never expected about her friend and why she is truly suited to be the element of Generosity.
