Applejack has had a crush on a certain dragon for a while, but she finally realizes she doesn't have a chance with him. Does he even notice her? Why even try? Will she give up, or will she tell him how she feels?

In Granny "Grand" Smith Apple's relative youth she experienced one of the most legendary pony industrial disasters of all time.

The Maresburg Frosting Flood, where over 400,000 gallons of multi flavored frosting burst from improperly built confectionary vats. It flooded the entirety of the Coreington Hay district, including Trottenham street; an area mostly populated by poor farmers and factory workers.

The culprit was the Mare and Friends Confectionary Company on Frostingham Court Road. In the ensuing disaster, many were lost.

This is Granny Smith's account of the tragedy from one of her many journals.

Temporary cover image is from the historical Boston Molasses Flood of 1919. Story was inspired by both the London Beer Flood of 1814, and the Molasses Flood in the cover image of 1919.

Note - Updated rating due to chapter three. I could have sworn I set it to T initially.

A man has ended up in Equestria in an unknown string of summoning. Unfortunately for him, he was taken from Earth when he was most needed to take care of his terminally ill daughter of only eight years of age. He needs to get back to save her, otherwise, he might lose her forever.

Teen Rating - If you're extremely sensitive on the subject of losing family members in the hospital, I strongly advise you don't read this. This story contains a very sensitive topic and is focused solely on the rendition of a father's love.

Throughout her life, Vapor Trail has been in the shadow of Sky Stinger, in the best way she could. She didn't want all the attention to herself and wanted to give it to somepony she found special. As the years have gone by, the two have grown close to each other, helping one another accomplish their life long dream: becoming a Wonderbolt. And for once in her life, Vapor Trail didn't want to be in the shadow of Sky Stinger, but in the light beside him.

With both of their dreams accomplished, they can now live the dream... that is, until Vapor Trail had another dream in mind. Because of her closeness with Sky Stinger, the mare developed strong feelings for him and wants to confess her emotions to him.

However, Vapor Trail was unaware of how challenging such a task could be. Vapor Trail has many resources to her disposal, such as teammates and various plots to get the right words out. But will that be enough? Can Vapor Trail get the message across? Or will her chances of being Sky Stinger's special somepony vanish like a vapor of steam?

This story is a sequel to Terror in Equestria 7: Battle for Control of the World

A thousand years have passed since the Dark Goddess Twilight Sparkle reclaimed the world as her own but when an ancient sect of ponies are discovered deep in the Everfree Forest, Twilight's reign could be brought to an end.

This story is a sequel to Guiding Light

For those who have not read it already, Guiding Light is required reading. This is the second book in the series.

Warning: Description contains spoilers for Guiding Light, and the first chapter of this one.

After learning of her ascension from the Princesses, Aurora must deal with her changing instincts, the secrets she must keep, and the scorn of the nobility, who see her only as an undeserving student, and a threat to their lifestyle. A threat that must be removed.

Note: This story shares canon with Rites of Ascension (with permission), and is "set" a significant time after it ends. Since Rites is still unfinished, there may be minor differences in canon and story elements that have not been explicitly stated. New additions to RoA will most likely not result in a change in this story. Also, there may be personality differences - copying a character's personality doesn't do well for good writing.

However, this will certainly not be just a clone with an OC. It is part of the reason I had not cited the canon influences in Guiding Light, since readers would make assumptions. Even if there was no ascension element to my story, I still would have likely used the same canon.

It’s been fifteen years since Sunset Shimmer graduated from CHS and about ten since she married the man who was currently sleeping next to her. In fact tomorrow would be their tenth anniversary and for some reason that kept her awake.

As she looked at the ring on her left she couldn’t help but smile. It was the same small silver ring he bought her for her graduation. Her gaze wandered from her hand to the man who once gave her that ring. With her smile growing a bit wider she started to remember.

This story was written for Oroboro's recently announced Sunset Shipping Contest: Changing Seasons.
I hope many of you will join the month long shipfest for Sunset. And for all who can't or don't want to join, I hope you have fun with dozens upon dozens of awesome shipfics.
And finally my personal thanks to The Fan Without a Face who helped me a great deal by editing this story and Celestia be my witness. He did an awesome job.

Starlight Glimmer woke up outside of her body, and wasn't entirely sure whether or not she could climb back inside.

Wanting new ideas for her next novel, Sketch Melody along with her friend Flare Spark are convinced by the Lord of Chaos himself to go on an adventure in another world. What could Possibly go wrong??

Tia is a girl whose home is near a railway junction. One day, while exploring the local scrapyard, she stumbles upon a curious-looking android that has been neglected for quite some time.

After some tinkering and polishing, Tia manages to get the robot working again, and she finds out that the cute little thing seems to have a mind of its own.

So why is it so upset?
