Not quite a mare, but unhappy being a colt. It's a hard position for a young pony to be in. Would be easier if judgement weren't in every look, hate in every scowl. For Glitter Shell, even her friends and family aren't giving her the support she needs. So, she goes to find some in her personal hero.

Based on the blog Ask Glitter Shell. Give it a chance; I doubt you'll regret it.

Featured on Equestria Daily on August 12th, 2013; thank all of you for the support! Though please remember to support trans people in real life. This story is a very tame snapshot of what they have to go through for most of their lives.

This story is a sequel to Twilight Holmes: Sabotage After Sunset


While Apple Bloom is away in Manehattan, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle struggle to find something to do aside from crusading. In their search for activity, they realize that they don't know what Snails' cutie mark represents. Curiosity regarding what happens when you introduce a garden snail to table salt gets the better of them. There's no case too big, no case too small. Not for Scoots and Belle: rescue rangers bandit busters.

Part of the Twilight Holmes continuity, following It's Elementary, My Dear Rainbow and TH: Sabotage After Sunset. Reading the previous stories is unnecessary to enjoy Salting Snails.

Editing by Formerly Committed, Shellsh0cker, and Warlord487.

Snipsy J. Scissorhooves was a simple unicorn colt going about his simple unicorn colt business. That is until one day, when he discovered the true meaning behind his special talent. Now, eager to prove himself to the whole of Equestria (and one little filly in particular), he takes a part-time job as a stylist at Rarity's expanded Boutique, and he quickly becomes popular with the female population of Ponyville. Very popular. Maybe...a little TOO popular.

Meanwhile, Pierre Escargot (known around town as 'Snails') struggles to occupy his time, without the constant companionship of his UBBFF (un-brother, best friend forever.)

Thanks to my pre-readers/proofers/editors: statoose, The Talkie Toaster, and Lord Pony; the two latter of which are my co-authors of the awesome PMV-sharing site PMV Today. Y'all should go check it out, once you're all done reading.

And very special thanks to BookWyrm for the new fan-art cover image. My very first piece of fan-art, and it is glorious.

This story started with a single realization. The voice actor for both Snails and Ranma happened to be the same person.

Snails 1/2 is a Ranma 1/2 spoof. Not actually a crossover, this is the story of Snails dealing with a Jusenkyo style curse. When hit with cold water he... becomes a filly. As if that wasn't horrifying enough, he quickly finds himself caught between rivalries, forced into competitions, and now he feels like he is developing a severe phobia of water.

With artwork by Alkarasu and edited by Swyrl, this is a story made as a pure slice of life comedy in the style of anime.

It's Nightmare Night in Ponyville once again, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders invite new friend Diamond Tiara to join in one of their favorite traditions; the classic game of Ghosts in the Graveyard! The rules are simple, and the game is easy and fun for everyone.

But the cemetery, like the game, has rules. And when those rules are broken, consequences are never far behind...

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Inspired by the classic children's game with some mild influence from the haunted house "Graveyard Games" from Universal Studios Florida's Halloween Horror Nights 29.

Written for the Halloween in April Horror Contest with the Barcast.

Snails has a secret: a secret power only he can wield, a secret batch of knowledge only he can grasp, a whole secret world over which he rules as an absolute monarch.

Secret except, y'know, it's right there on his flanks. And I'm getting pretty sick and tired of it making that bean-brain act like a complete and total jackass!

No offense to any donkeys reading this...

An entry in Imposing Sovereigns IV, using the prompt Snails/Knowledge (Or Lack Thereof), this story received an Honorable Mention!

This story is a sequel to Snails 1/2: Vol 1 Becoming Popular


This is a precursor to the story Snails 1/2: The art of the Dress

There are some that would view Escargot's life as perfect. There are some that think she's the luckiest pony alive. She has looks, she has status, she has the attention of the princesses. What more could a pony want. There are some that would give anything for what she has. Snails would give it all up to go back to being a normal colt and have the nightmare end.

Snails 1/2 a Perfect Stallion follows Snails and his alter ego Escargot, on a trip to the frozen north. Through danger, adventure, and through bad marriage proposals. The Ranma-esc style story continues.

Will Snails ever become the Perfect Stallion?
