If you should see a lavender airship in your sky, hurry to get on board. You don't want to miss being part of Equestria's future, aboard Princess Twilight's School of Friendship...

Princess Twilight's Friendship School proposal has been denied even preliminary approval by the EEA. Fortunately Tempest Shadow and her fleet of warships are back in town, and Tempest has a somewhat unorthodox idea for how Twilight can get around this. Plus, we find out more about how each of the Young Six came to be enrolled at the School. And Starlight ends up with a much better job...

AU reboot of the start of season 8, and sequel to Reformation... It's a Pony Thing.

The Siege of Canterlot is over and the Storm King defeated but Tempest Shadow, unofficially the new leader of the Storm King's army and antagonist turned protagonist, realizes there are other nations still under the former tyrant's iron fist. Redemption on her mind, Tempest takes off to put an end to this conflict, but not without help from some new friends. But as she and the others soon find out, war is more complicated than it seems and may prove too much a challenge, even to the Princess of Friendship.

Celaeno does her job the best she can, living day to day hoping that she can spare her crew the wrath of the Storm King. Most days, she's able to get through her work and go to bed at night feeling only mostly empty, rather than completely. Some days though... Some days are hard.

Subject 0976, or known as Apex, is a man-made Yautja, he is made to replace soldiers in US Army. Apex was made from many predators DNAs, including the Yautjas they caught and killed from the past years. But when a experiment went wrong, Apex escaped the facility. After an intense fight, Apex was blown up by a bomb. When he woke up again, this warrior found himself in the magical land of Equestria, but our favorite ponies and their new made friends were fighting Storm King's army in Canterlot. Apex can either choose to ignore this, or to help them...

Most things had returned to normal following the Festival of Friendship, but Tempest felt there was still one matter to be settled. It had been no easy feat convincing the pirate captain to travel with her, much less alone and unaware of the destination. But having the Princess of Friendship on your side could do wonders, apparently.

This story is a sequel to Something Of A Tender Moment

Note: This is an alternate sequel to For The Love of A Mother. Read it first and then the prologue.

Azure Glide, former prince and captain of the Canterlot Royal Guard, had been in a self-imposed exile for a decade over a certain incident that shook him to his core. He comes to Princess Twilight Sparkle with a favor to ask of her. After all that time, why would he return?

Note 1: This was written during the time when the final episodes were first leaked. I planned on releasing this the day after MLP ended.

Note 2: For the courtesy of others, please spoiler anything related to the plot in the comments. Thank you. :)

This story is a sequel to Daring Do and the Legend of the Kirinstone

A.K. Yearling is summoned to Canterlot to embark on an expedition to investigate reports of floating ruins over the Southern Sea, where she finds both ancient history and a villain who's been waiting for the perfect chance to strike.

Written as a birthday gift for PonyJosiah13, who also helped with proofreading and planning.

Inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Again, no, not a crossover.

Additional notes (spoilers):

Beelzebub, Azazel, and returning demons inspired by the game Helltaker.

Some airship designs inspired by the Super Mario Bros. games.

For those of you who may not know, Ponyville Ciderfest 2023 was a weekend-long interactive game to decide the future of the convention itself. This was brought by writers, artists, cosplayers, editors, staff members, and countless others into a weekend worthy of the history books.

We wanted to make sure that these stories, all this hard work, reached as many members of the MLP community as possible. To that end, these are my own humble offerings from the convention's weekend. Included are the #CodeWords that were used in the Ciderfest app, as well as all the possible outcomes for each story.

I hope you enjoy, and please make sure to read what everypony had to offer.

Note: The App would allow users to enter a username, which would replace the [Username] seen in the stories. I have left them in to keep the stories in their original released condition.

This story is a sequel to Diamonds a Doesn't

Captain Celaeno and her crew are heading home to Ornithia. They’re bringing Queen Novo and Princess Skystar along with them as it seems the royal mother and daughter seem to have been a similar situation that the home of the Avians are in.

Following the defeat of the Storm King, both his victims and his followers alike continue on with their lives. For some of them, the adventure is only just beginning...

(Needless to say, there will be spoilers for the movie).
