One day, Twilight's cutie mark disappears. It's probably fine, really.

My entry in the first Quills and Sofas Speedwriting Competition. Written in an hour and unedited.

Life's not fair, is it? For some, they try their best and still come across misfortune after misfortune within their daily lives. For others, they don't even deserve whatever cruel suffering the universe forces them to endure. Regardless of whether you're a good pony or not, you are nothing less but a prisoner of fate.
Such is the case with Ardent Cadenza. A pupil of Star-Swirl the Bearded that healed the sick and was the nicest unicorn one could ever hope to meet. But alas, fate does not care for those things, especially when it's in need of a force of darkness to balance out the light.

Partially based on an entry for Codex Equus that I wrote and is written for this story red reaper intends on making:

And yes, Ardent's backstory is loosely based off of Ardyn Izunia's backstory from Final Fantasy XV.

Things are looking very grim for the remaining Avengers despite pulling a few surprises. Just when all hope seems lost for the Earth and our heroes themselves, a lot of help arrives to fight Thanos and his invading forces.

...maybe a little too much help.

(Not exactly a serious thing, just a silly thing I did."

Rarity is on a train, heading to a convention. She’s joined by a friend.

Inspired by the short description of this story.

A decade has passed and while Chrysalis perished along with her industrial empire, her two sons were granted to live a, mostly, average childhood. Under the love of their caring father and under the roof of Thorax's new hive, Calyx and Spiracles found themselves busy pursuing their own interests with a fair share of friends, carefree and totally oblivious of their past as heirs of the industrial nightmare every changeling wants to forget.

Unfortunately, as the three spent some time out of the hive, a misunderstanding led to the abrupt arrest of the father. Desperate, the brothers rushed to the woods of Blood Oak in search of the supposed help. Not fully aware that remnants of their true past waited there for them to confront, and some of its strange inhabitants will try to bring the worst out of the two.

Though none of them planned it, well... here they are. Better make the best of it and try to find a way back home. If worst comes to worst, at least they have each other, right?

*bzzzt*

"We interrupt our relaxing musical broadcast to bring you the latest local news."

"Drivers, be alive and awake out there, with your eyes wide open and already changing route if you have to. Due to yet another road incident, E40 leading to Brugge is completely blocked."

"A few of our listeners who were already turned around by authorities before we had a chance to warn them reported a.. now get this.. a heavy armored governmental presence, with highly-trained veterinarians on site. You know the folks, those weirdos that can tell the breed of a horse just by the smell of their surroundings. Damn aliens."

*Hahaha..* "Seems like someone will be in a lot of trouble for exterminating yet another specimen of some rare and endangered species while doing eighty. Also, listen.. gentlemen environmentalists and missuses ecologists. We know the beetles and birdies are pretty, but.. barring a whole road? Come on, let people live here! This country is already cramped as it is!"

"Well... what is done is done, I suppose. So, be safe out there and remember.. only we, bring you the latest news!"

========================================================
Something much shorter for you to read while I still work on... That OTHER Thing.

You know, that other enormously overblown thing.
(Seriously guys, there's even a 20,000 words chapter annddd... a few over 15,000. Almost all others over 10,000 . Sweet baby Jesus on a motorbike.)

Also, the cover might not be perfect, but I'll always have a soft spot for it as my own creation.

A Mother, a Father, a brother, a sister-in-law, and a niece. They are Twilight's family.

But there's one special member of her family that is about to be recognized.

FEATURED 8/19/2019!

For Raevyn, on this most special of days.

From the comments section:

"Speaking as someone who was adopted as a baby...and who's mother shared something very much like this with him many years ago during one of our talks...

Thank you, and damn you for making my 'allergies' act up." -Rescue Sunstreak

"This was one of the sweetest stories I have ever had the pleasure of reading!" -Real_Harmony Sparkle

"Beautiful I adore this story so very very much :D" -twidash1993

This story is a sequel to The Mystery of Scootaloo

For having helped to save Camp Everfree, the Rainbooms are invited to the set of the latest Daring Do movie. However, things soon start going wrong. Props vanish, sets collapse, and generally mayhem ensues. Can anybody stop the fiend behind the madness, or will the film never see the light of day?

A partial retelling of Movie Magic.

This story is a sequel to Class for Two

(It is highly recommended you check out Birthday Built For Two first, along with its sequels. Though familiarity with them is not required to understand this fic. Takes place after "The Last Laugh" for obvious reasons.)

Thanks to Pinkie Pie, Cheese Sandwich is back on his hooves and ready to spread laughter and cheer wherever he goes. And Pinkie Pie couldn't be happier for him, especially since he's her very special somepony.

But it isn't long afterward that Cheese returns to Ponyville once again, this time with something very important he hopes to ask Pinkie Pie about. Something that will change their lives forever.

Will Cheese be able to work up the courage to ask? And if he does, how will Pinkie react?
