Most Equestrians have a nice life. They wake up each morning to a beautiful sunrise, they go to a job that perfectly fits their interests, and they retire each night to a peaceful sleep. Do any of them ever wonder why their lives are so nice?
As far as Soot Streak is concerned, most ponies are better of not knowing.
After a colorful incident from his past, Soot was conscripted into Princess Luna's personal supernatural hit squad. Now, he serves Equestria from behind a veil, keeping ponies safe from all the troubles they never think about. For Soot, life is simply a question of what will kill him first; the monsters he fights without, his own comrades, or the monsters he fights within.

When Twilight went to the human world she was on verge of having a mental breakdown at seeing her new body and all the strange things around her. Luckily for her, she had her faithful assistant Spike there to keep her from going off the deep end and doing something she'd regret.

Unluckily for THIS Twilight though, Spike didn't go with her and she had to deal with this all alone... this can only end in disaster

Contains: property destruction through stress eating, a description of the human body from someone who knows nothing about it followed by casual nudity, and ALOT of awkwardness from everyone except Twilight. Contains no sexual acts, tag only present for the aforementioned nudity jokes

At the reception for the funeral of Flash Ensemble, Rarity thinks back on her icons and idols, and how most of them have already passed.

Written for the first Quills and Sofas Speedwriting event. The prompt was "The Stars Are Gone"

Twilight finds herself too frightened to ask Rarity a question, so she asks by not asking it at all.

Small ficlet written some time ago to cheer up my significant other during a bad day.

This story is a sequel to Walk in the Darkness

Rarity wishes to learn how to properly fight. Twilight seems opposed since Rarity won't give her the real reason behind her wishes.

Maybe it's frivolous, maybe it's a little deeper.

Inspired by the Bodyguard!AU Series, based on Earthsong9405's AU where Twilight is the bodyguard to a "Princess/Queen Rarity".

Twilight's parents strongly disapprove of her dating Moondancer. They may think she's an utterly fantastic mare but, really, Twilight shouldn't date any of her Canterlot friends.

Like, ever.

Night Light may have a couple of confessions to make.

Rarity and Twilight have a nice, simple, delicate lunch with absolutely NO sexual overtones whatsoever.

Written to try and break myself out of my mental block and other struggles related to writing. for the Monochromatic chat.

Princess Luna has returned to Equestria from her millennium of exile, but much has been lost to her: centuries of time, the respect and admiration of a nation, and perhaps worst of all, the beautiful stars in her mane.

Fortunately, she hasn't lost the love of her sister.

Entrant to the first Quills and Sofas Speedwriting competition for the prompt "The Stars are Gone".

Through ignorance we cause pain. Through ignorance we cause sadness. Through ignorance we cause anger. But in the end what you don't know cant hurt you, Right? Because ignorance truly is bliss when stuck in the limelight. For hundreds of years, Nightmare moon was stuck on the lunar surface devising her plans for revenge. Today she plans on enacting them.

Follow John Stone and Nightmare Moon as events unfold, Secrets are exposed, and pain resurfaces.
Will Nightmare Moon succeed in her revenge against Celestia? Or will they work through their pain?
