And why is the Day Princess so wary of him? Also some old guy with a Beard is a massive asshole. What a dick.

After you suddenly appeared in the Crystal Empire one day, Princess Cadance personally saw to it that you were taken care of as you adjusted to your new life. She's been a great friend to you, and thankful though you may be for everything she has done for you, you have a few hangups about the way the "Princess of Love" does things.

But unlike her subjects, you aren't afraid to voice these concerns.

Set during... I dunno, the hiatus between S5 and S6, this story is all about Spike going missing and a desperate Twilight trying to find him. Starlight turns up for some reason. Not as exciting as it sounds, but hopefully funnier.

This story was originally written for the Thousand Words Contest II but because I can't edit for toffee, it doesn't qualify. Oh well, next time there's a less than 1331 words competition I'll sure to romp home!! :pinkiehappy:

"Misty is tired of being incompetent at villainy, so, in a desperate bid to impress Opaline, she seeks tutoring from a professional, artsy delinquent to learn how to be a proper miscreant. Things don't exactly go to plan, however."

Disclaimer: This story takes place midway through the events of Make Your Mark chapter 4 and, as such, it contains some tiny spoilers.

I wrote this little one-shot in a single sleepless night, so I apologize if the quality is unsatisfactory.

After Duke Clopius secretly murders his new wife to gain uncontested rule over Zephyria, princesses Zipp and Pipp follow their dream! Their dream is about an angry ghost who wants her death avenged.

Also, about learning to fly for real.


Art Credit: You might think the first G5 movie would include at least ONE shot of a pegasus princess wowing the pegasi of Zephyr Heights by (fake) flying with a backdrop of uninterrupted sky, but no. So I screencapped a frame and edited it.

(This story should work on its own, but it's technically kind of a sequel to "My Little 'Fullmetal Alchemist' of Hamlet and Also an Enchanted Library Is in There Somewhere: Queen Haven's Revenge.")


Maybe or maybe not an entry in Bike's A Thousand Words Contest II, for very logical reasons.

Fate and prophesy can be funny things. Sometimes harmony and magic can be a bit unpredictable.

Starswirl's last prophecy was unclear as the greatest spell caster of his day had notoriously bad horn-writing and was equally bad at only writing down half of what he saw in visions.

For generations Princess Celestia has been subtly manipulating the lives of her ponies for generations, using a combination of Starswirl's prophesies and her own foresight to get the outcome she wanted. But she forgot the three most important rules about trying to manipulate future events: 1) The future is like a river. It follows its own currents and makes its own path. 2) The future is always in motion and is next to impossible to predict with any certainty. 3) The very act of viewing the future changes it.


This story is an AU from the main MLP:FiM starting with a deviation from the episode Magical Mystery Cure.

It all started with a single question: What if it was the Mane 6 that became alicorns and not just Twilight?

It's rated T for mild violence.
