What does a mayor do? On a good day, you get to nose over an award. It helps if you can make sure the weather schedule comes off on time. But more than anything else, it's about leadership. Taking responsibility for the safety and comfort of all those who live within your domain. That's how it's supposed to work. The mayor is the one who makes sure everything is under control.

This is Ponyville. Marigold is fully aware that on a typical day, approximately nothing will be under control. But when it comes to protecting those who live there, she still has to do whatever she can.

If there's anything left which she can do at all.

This story is a sequel to Making Equestria Something or Other Again

How long was Mayor Mare out-cold? No one really knows. But what we can say is that the world has changed quite a bit and she needs bringing up to speed. Fortunately, her friends are there to do it. Also Discord served as the interim mayor of Ponyville for some reason.

Rated "T" for flippant and callous discussion of death and alcohol.

My friend kept joking about filling my living room with salt, so much so that I swore I'd write a story about it.

This was purely written because my my friend’s terrible joke.

AN: First story I have been able to write in 8 to 9 months, whoo!

The First and Last Days of Luna's Banishment, of Nightmare Moon's impending attack, through Celestia's thoughts and experiences as the silence she once craved in the madness of her life was drowning her as it refused to let her forget what she did to Luna.

This story is a sequel to The Equestria Chronicles: Prelude

Written by me and https://www.fimfiction.net/user/174091/ponyfag-not-brony

(Not a proper sequel! You don't have to read The Equestria Chronicles to enjoy this! But it is canon to that universe! May be updated in the future for more short stories...)

Despite being hastily selected as the Guardian Of Ponyville by Twilight Sparkle during her hectic week of packing. Discord is now left to his own devices and the responsibility of taking care of an entire town's worth of errands and obligations.

The following story is 100% true, although it may seem like it is too good to be true. I was still a mare when we met, and the circlestances that broughs us together were .... impossible. but nothing is impossible when the universe can sense LOVE... That was his name. a dashing Stallion with the grizzley look of a prison of war. He had a eyepatch and his looks were sharp like sharpnel from a gunshot wound. he could cut you with one look. To others he's goes by many names. But to me he is the reason I am still alive. He saved me. My name is Rainbow Dash, and this is the story of how I married Narvi Love.

Twilight Sparkle gets chased by ponies from Ponyville wearing robes. Why? She doesn't know, but Mayor Mare has already a hunch who is behind it: One certain pink mare.

Huge thanks to Punished Bean for proofreading and CasualReader for grammar checking this fic!

The Wagon-Wheel Rally, one of the largest events of its kind in Equestria, has decided after two decades to move to Trottingham due to construction in Ponyville. Supporters are furious and decide to take it out on a hungover Mayor Meyer Mare, who treats them with her usual brand of (dis)respect.

Nightmare Moon has returned from her thousand years of banishment on the moon.

These thousand years have not been kind to her.

She decides to sell the idea of Eternal Night instead of trying to take over the world.

Nothing will go wrong.

Set in: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Part One. Not to be taken seriously.

Thanks to Petrichord for some of the ideas in this story!
