The adventures have ended, and the Mane 6 have settled into their lives. Except for Applejack, who finds herself increasingly alone on a farm whose best days are behind it.

Winner of the Quills and Sofas Lyrical contest 2, using the prompt The Water is Wide.

Applejack storms into the Town Hall, glaring at any pony that so much as glances her way. "Where's that mayor?!" She stomps with each step, tail lashing on her way to Mayor Mare's office. She expects satisfaction, and swears she will leave with it.

Written for the Pairs contest.

The words still echoed, spinning clearly in her mind...

Applejack stared at the ceiling, her eyes tracing over the gaps and grains of the wooden rafters for what felt like the hundredth time.  Of course she didn’t “enjoy” being forcibly transformed by magic, and in the split-seconds of the magic working over her body, contorting her, dressing her in riding gear and hardening her flesh into fiberglass, she’d been nearly overwhelmed with fear...

...when it was done, however, she’d felt something different...

...as she went around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around...

A slow-burn descent into an unusual place, as Applejack and the CMC become obsessed with being turned into a carousel. May count as psychological and/or body horror, or maybe fetish-fuel, possibly a trans/queer narrative (?), depending on who reads it.

Content Warning: Contains a lot of inanimate-TF fixation. Nothing really "disturbing" about it, but that's what the story is about.

Because of the horror aspects, I am submitting this as part of the Nightmare Night in April Writing Event. If that interests you, go check out the other stories in that folder!

This is a followup to something that happened in the IDW My Little Pony comics, Issue 78, the end of the Cosmos arc, where the image is from. You do not need to read that to understand the plot, as it's just one scene and I explain everything relevant (I haven't read it myself since it came out), though it's a year-end 4-parter with Discord so you should probably read it either way.

This was an old commission that's sat mostly finished for a while, but was delayed by my severe nerve-damage from COVID.

A few years after the collapse and Celestia and Luna's arrival to Equestria a small moon like planet descended onto Equis and from that came an age of ghosts, not in the traditional sense, Ponies, Griffons and more were blessed with powers of resurrection with the small machines known as Ghosts, for years this era of peace went on, but threats linger across the universe, wanting the planet known as the Traveler's power for themselves, Twilight and her friends are part of a resistance group known as the Vanguard, Twilight guides Unicorns and Warlocks, Applejack guides the Earth Ponies and Titans and Rainbow Dash guides the Pegasi and Hunters, along side others like Zavala and Ikora.

(Takes place during Lightfall: Season of The Witch, mainly cause that's when I joined)

What will you do if you remember your past life? Well... a unicorn stallion named Teddy (soft inside like a teddy bear) decides to become a hero! Why not? (I don’t know English, please don’t scold me too much for grammatical errors, thank you in advance for your understanding :3 regarding the cover, I wanted to say that the art does not belong to me)

"Maybe we could have continued to be friends. But not in this story. I've decided to make a brave decision like you taught me to, and say goodbye.

— Fluttershy"

Fluttershy wrote letters that formed a journal to give one day to Rainbow Dash. She has written it throughout the majority of their friendship, relationship and heart break. Now was the time she was going to give it to her. Not because she wants Rainbow to know she still loves her, but because she wants Rainbow to know how much she has hurt her. Besides, she doesn't have to stick around much longer anyways as she's planning to move away.

Rarity and Applejack always had a vision of what the future of their family should look like. But now that their two kids are toddlers, Rarity has an idea that could change everything.

Applejack somehow ends up in New York, in an Apple store, where they do NOT sell apples. Oh and she's like a big orange pony that sticks out like a sore thumb but who cares about that, go to Central Park!

Silly little thirty crack minute fic I had the idea to pump out to clear that old writers block. Don't ask me, I have no idea what's going on either.

Applejack discovers a fawn-like infant creature which turns out to be none other than the Great seedling itself! She takes it upon herself to raise the baby and become its mother but, while she raises it, she discovers a few things about herself that she never thought possible.

Ponies have reported the murder of two pets and of a wounded pony relating to The Elements of Harmony. Residents of Ponyville have reported sightings of ponies screaming and crying right outside of Princess Twilight Sparkle's home. So Princess Celestia herself sent me to investigate and interview ponies of the crime scene. What really happened? Is the Princess alright?
