Octavia Melody enjoys a nice, quiet moment to herself until her housemate shows up. This is why we can't have nice things.

For most changelings letting the Queen feed on you is never a pleasant experience, just part of the job description. One drone lives and breathes for it, even if he doesn't understand exactly why.

This story is a sequel to Only I Know

Equestria: a land of equality, but some are more equal than others.

Twilight is about to find out just how the other half of Equestrian society feels about this paradox. And they won't be alone. A certain pegasus has a few things to say to the Princess of Friendship. Hopefully, Twilight will manage to keep her head.

Just a followup idea to one of my old stories.

Equestria was not always the land of peace and plenty that it is today. Once, long ago, the land was filled with dangerous beasts and terrible monsters. But you’d be hard pressed to realize this from the history books, for records from those times are few and far between. In fact Equestria’s historical records are littered with gaps and spaces. Entire eras and civilizations lost to history, known of by only a few ponies.

Daring Do is one of those few.

She has learned that lies in those historical gaps; dead empires, extinct species, and monsters of immense power. More than that, she has learned that not all of those ancient monsters are dead and buried.

Some persist even to this day.

And some hide in plain sight.

This story is a sequel to A Certain Magical Friendship – Context_SHIFT

Nightmare Moon had been defeated.
Everypony had returned home from the world of 'A Certain Magical Index'.

But the portal is still open.

And when a certain world begins to probe a friendly world, both will have to come together to answer the question: are clones people?

This story can also be found on Spacebattles, Fanfiction.net and Archive of Our Own.

Dragons, as a rule, are not subtle creatures.

Dragonlord Ember is far from a typical dragon.

Garble wishes he had a sane dragon for a Dragonlord, instead of some Cunning Optimist who's going to get them all killed.

Change is coming to dragonkind, one way or another.

Received an Honorable Mention in FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns Contest. (It was in the "Ember the Mad" slot.)
