The glamorous unicorn Opalescence is haunted by bizarre recurring dreams of a world in which she and her friends are all animals. But as vivid as these dreams are, surely they're just dreams, right? There couldn't actually be a parallel universe somewhere where they're little more than pets ... right?

Twilight and Rainbow Dash are visiting Rarity. However, when the first snows of winter suddenly fall--rather than let her friends trudge through the cold on their way home--Rarity invites the two to stay the night at her place.

What started off as a fun night for the three will soon spiral into an embarrassing evening for Rainbow Dash, especially after Rarity unveils to them her newest line of animal-inspired sleepwear.

The most innocent things can alter the very course of our lives.

Consider; an ordinary, albeit strangely configured, piece of art acquired from a distant land and sent to a seamstress in a small town. She vaguely recalls the relative who has sent the gift, but cannot fathom the reason for the giving of said present.

A closer inspection of the item reveals a bizarre series of symbols inscribed upon the surface, simultaneously repulsive and yet attractive to the young mare's eye...

Day 4 of the Seventh Anniversary Story Bomb... and sister story to 'The Thirteenth Hour'.

After completing yet another marvellous masterpiece of fashion, Rarity faintly feels like she's ready to tell the pony that inspired her new dress exactly how she feels. She has only one problem. Though her feelings for a certainty orange earth pony may be genuine, she has no idea whether her close friend will feel the same way, especially after a certain training event involving unicorns to which Rarity was not invited. In the end however, she may simply have to accept that she's all out of luck.

Six pets hang out in Twilight's basement.

When secret agent Sweetie Drops is captured by the Mare with the Emerald Hands and taken to her secret underwater base, she thinks she knows how things will go. She’ll be imprisoned. She’ll nearly lose all hope, then she’ll find the inner strength she needs to defeat the villain in a climactic battle.

But then Lyra makes it weird.

There are no series tags for James Bond or Austin Powers, but I'm sure you'll get the idea.

Venture into the wonderful land of a cat who hates Rarity, and most other things. Mostly Rarity.

The 1st chapter is meant as a standalone for Equestria Daily's Outside Insight Summer Fanfic Contest, though depending of the reception, I might continue the story (as if I'd get reception). Enjoy! But I'm terrible, so you probably won't.

Losing a pet is always hard. Especially when it happens unexpectedly.

Behind the blissful saccharine image of Fluttershy's animal haven lies an ugly truth. She loves all animals. All animals have to eat. Some animals eat other animals. This ugly truth is left to Angel to deal with, and he deals with it the only way he knows how. His own way.
Angel centric.
Warning: Contains swearing, violence, stone-cold badass Angel and "adult themes".

Our hero is known by many names.

His mighty paws have laid numerous foes low.

His eloquent meows echo with the weight of his nobility.

He is the greatest of hunters, the most stalwart of heroes.

Join him for an epic Nightmare Night quest through Ponyville, where he will meet with allies, face down tyrants, and even risk life and limb in the name of true love.
