Adagio wants to blow off some steam after the small issue of losing her magic, the ability to sing, and being humiliated in front of an entire school. She finds the perfect way of going about this is the time honored tradition of punching your problems out: boxing. While Aria passes on the idea, Sonata is more than happy to help out Adagio.

The only problem is Adagio only gets more frustrated when she sees Sonata after changing for their workout.

One-shot.

"You are hereby invited to the Apple Family Giving Harvest dinner! Bring your friends, your appetites, and something to be thankful for." Because, as the Apple Family would tell you...

No one eats until everyone gives thanks...

Part of the Flinx-verse.

Happy Thanksgiving!

The years go by and by for a phoenix. Never once allowed to take a final rest, a phoenix can see many, many things for many, many years. However, one memory may always stand out.

One-Shot. Split POV.

In honor of the Lunar Eclipse and the Blood Moon.

Princess Luna looks beyond her airs, her masks, and her own sense of being to view the woman in the mirror. A her long past, yet one that is the she that she has come to know best. A vale of lies and a cloak of shame cascade between she and herself; one that only with four hands together can be removed to see reality. A stark reality that stabs at the heart.

Humanized character.

Mixed Point of View.

Keeping up with the latest magical research coming out of Canterlot Academy, Sunburst finds something interesting and decides to try it himself. After Starlight sees what it can do, she comes up with ever more ambitious ideas for how to improve it.

They have no idea what they're doing.

I for one welcome our new computer overlords.

The Elements of Harmony, a tale from a millennia of tongues and texts. A tale of might and magic; of the tests of time and bonds. A tale of the epic of the past of they, and those who wielded them through struggle, friendship... and tragedy.
All know the current tale that has been told by Princess Celestia, but only she and her sister are the remaining holders of the original story. Of the casting of three, the death of one, and the pain of the one who bore the weight of it all.

This story is a sequel to Rebels' Schism

Two more years of fighting Loyalists and freeing their thralls.

The unbreakable Rebel, now the Iron Warlord, is summoned to base and away from the frontline.

To discuss reports and plans with the Rebellion's Founder.

Only for him to get a message from a certain orange Overlord.

If there was one thing the ponies of Equestria had come to understand after their rekindled friendships, it was that the past is often distorted by time, fear, and misunderstanding. It was a long road for the ponies of Maretime Bay—as well as Zephyr Heights and Bridlewood—to overcome those gaps, but their returned unity has given way to their magic and hopes of a brighter future. A future helmed in great deal by Sunny and her friends, come what may.

Even if that first trial is the declaration of war.

This story is a sequel to Upstart Villainy

The once fearsome King Sombra has had a rough life. Aside from his stint as tyrannical overlord of the Crystal Ponies, things just haven't been going his way: banished to shadow, getting blasted by the power of love, warped to another world entirely filled with talking mushrooms, and getting suplexed by a fat scaly idiot. To top it all off, his precious hand-me-down of a castle just got demolished.

Rebuilding an empire isn't easy, but luckily for Sombra, there's someone to lend a hand... or a claw, rather.

Honestly, have any of you just taken a moment to really congratulate every pony, creature, or whatever on this show? My guess, no. So why not raise up a mug and give a nice hooray for everypony out there as we give them all a nice, swift, pat on the back.
