Apple Bloom has no memories of her parents. But that's okay, it's not like Applejack and Big McIntosh knew them that much either.
One day, though, Granny finds an old album, with all the photos of their parents. And Apple Bloom notices something.

Inspired by The Hand That Takes from TJ Pones. I got other ideas on the same theme as well, but this one was the first one that really interested me.

This story is a sequel to What Doesn't Kill You

Anon, fed up with being a handyman for the town, searches for his calling in life. And despite Twilight's assurances that he has no magic, Anon discovers avenues he's yet to explore.

If only he wasn't such an asshole.

Invading an extra-dimensional mad scientist's secret lair? No big deal for the agents of S.M.I.L.E.

But what Lyra and Bon Bon find there might give them some second thoughts.

Entry to the sidewide Science Fiction Contest III.

Expanded from a speedwrite originally written for the Quills and Sofas Speedwriting January 2024 Basic Contest.

Fluorescence's mom helps run the pony side of the portal between Equestria and Earth. Taylor's mom does a similar job on the human side. So Fluor has known Taylor for, like, ever, and they share a fascination with the portal and how it works. This fascination only occasionally leads to interdimensional disasters.

A magical universe and a science-based universe may sit uneasily side by side, but friendship knows no boundaries.

This is an entry in the Science Fiction Contest III.

Fluttershy is dead. But that's okay, Twilight can fix it. She can fix anything.

Written for Science Fiction Contest 3

I originally did a quick sprint for a for funsies contest on beans writing group. Bean's Writing Group - Fimfiction

I haven't written in... a while, and I wanted to see if I could stretch a bit to get it done.

What is actually about?!

Well the original prompt was literally just "Ponies watching stars" and I've always leaned towards a bit more cosmic horror when it came to stars.

Due to recent personal items I've also been a bit out of sorts with regards to my own internal philosophy and as I was writing this I felt that it ended up capturing that kind of feeling very well.

This story is a sequel to The Start of a Royal Addiction

Luna has heard hushed whispers of the newest addition to Ponyville visiting her sister quite often.

Ponies talk about something called "scritches and pats." Luna isn't exactly sure what it is. But her sister and her dear friend Twilight have started acting weird. She intends to get to the bottom of this, and one way or another put an end to this apparent speading "addiction."

Featured 2 hours after posting. Huzzah!

Berry Punch has taken to the hobby of pulling out the old lawn chair and watching Ponyville explode. It seemed a little too common at this point to be honest. How many times could a town explode before it got old?

Everything was going the way it usually did. Her on a lawn chair, bottle of wine in hoof, and a catastrophic event playing out in front of her that would no doubt be written in the history books. A usual afternoon in Ponyville.

Then a certain dragonequus shows up, drained of his magic, down on his luck, and in need of some mortal wisdom.

The fate of Equestria rests in her hooves, and Berry Punch doesn't even know it.

-Inspired by that one lawn chair meme.

When a spaceship crashlands in Equestria , it's up to Doctor Whooves to analyze the ship remains and contact the aliens in charge.
