After an accident left Fleetfoot's flightsuit ripped open she is in danger of being kicked to the bench for the duration of the season.
Fortunately there is somepony nearby who can fix it.

To bad they never told her that pony happens to be a cute mare.

Special thanks to Kirb for the idea and helping me with my grammar and overall readabilty of the story.

Coco Pommel simply could not stand it any longer.

This is a stream-of-consciousness look into a possible way events transpired just before the end of "Rarity Takes Manehattan." It is also a look into the mind of someone who perhaps cannot think terribly rationally all the time.

Aboard a ship headed for the glorious city of Manehattan, Coco Pommel turns her thoughts to the events that led up to her visit to the bustling urban sprawl.

Thanks to Azusa for prereading!

When Coco Pommel is summoned to Ponyville, she encounters the last thing she thought she'd ever see: a Rarity who has completely lost the passion for her profession.

Moved by Rarity's plight, Coco will do everything she can to bring the sparkle back to her friend. But will she, an almost complete outsider to Rarity's life, be enough?

Note to future readers: This is the FIRST installment of the Two Sided series. Once the other stories are released, more detail will be added. Until then, enjoy the story.

Two months have passed since Coco Pommel, aspiring fashion designer, left her last job to pursue her dream. Unfortunately, Coco's search for a job in the world of fashion have been fruitless, all of them leaving her empty-hoofed and forcing her to take up work at a local coffee shop.

However, Coco's luck finally turns around when a mysterious customer enters the shop to offer her a job that will test her skills in making a dress "fit for a queen." Unbeknownst to the mare, there's more to this customer beneath the surface, and his offer has more than just dressmaking in a store...

It's been a rough five months working for Suri Polomare. At first Coco thought she was just a bit demanding, but once Fashion Week came around her boss reveals how nasty she really is. When she hears about Suri's awful scheme to steal the trophy from Rarity, Coco snaps.

She snaps hard.

Suri Polomare had every reason to be confident. A little theft here, a little deception there, and Fashion Week was as good as hers.

Too bad she didn't think about the long-pressured conscience of a certain timid assistant.

Edit: So I've been told this story was featured. That's fantastic and I love you all for it. For srs.

Monster attacks. Crime. Illegal hallucinogens made from electric fruit.

They say things didn't use to be like this. They say things were different, before Luna came back 60 years ago, but Detective Hard "Hardy" Boiled of the Detrot Police Department has never known any world other than that demarcated by the seedy streets of his beloved decaying metropolis; a world in which the coroners sing and dance, surveillance bugs have personality disorders, and the Chief of Police is a scarier entity than most of the eldritch things the city attracts.

The grey unicorn who turned up dead outside the posh High Step Hotel seemed like just another case, but her missing horn is the pointy tip of a very large and nasty iceberg. It's up to Hardy and his friends - a rejected monster hunter, a psychic cab driver, and an underground antiques heir - to find out what’s going on in an investigation that promises to stick more than a cupcake into the very eye of Detrot.

Especially if Hardy has anything to say about it.

60 years have passed since Luna's return. Many things have changed, and not all for the better. But even in the run-down, crime-ridden urban sprawl of Detrot, one facet of Equestria seems determined to withstand any test of time: Ponies love a good celebration.

This year's Nightmare Night party at the Detrot Police Department Headquarters was shaping up to be one of the most magnificent yet, but when a magical mishap leaves Detective Hardy stranded in a cell with his partner, his driver, the eccentric city coroner, and several crates of cupcake vodka, the evening descends instead into alcohol-soaked reminiscence about a Nightmare Night long past...

This is a Nightmare Night special episode of Starlight Over Detrot: A Noir Tale.

This story is a sequel to Unicorns and Dragon Eggs (or Ember’s Mother Conspiracy)

Twilight was supposed to present a spell that would revolutionize Equestria. Instead, she uncovered secrets that the world—and Trixie—hoped would remain hidden.
