How does one start a revolution?
For Evenstar Boral, the question was always an academic one, suitable for late night conversations and maybe an article in the university newspaper.
Now she's getting a little more field experience than she'd like.
With strange ponies recognizing her on the street and her best friend plagued by nightmares, Evenstar finds herself thrust into events seven thousand years in the making. What is the strange symbol that keeps cropping up in her life? How can someone she's never met know so much about her? And who was Twilight Sparkle?
But there is still hope, for even in a world of shadow and fear, true friendships never fade.

Twilight Sparkle accomplished something incredible, something not even the great Starswirl could manage. But ascension into the ranks of Equestria's princesses is not without its difficulties. Before she can take her place as princess of Friendship, Twilight must travel to the underworld and make a ceremonial offering to Death in exchange for her immortality. Twilight is more than a little surprised to discover the identity of the pony under the hood.

After years living in Ponyville and getting to know her friends, Twilight always assumed they were exactly what they seemed: a group of friendly and ambitious ponies. But as it turns out, the sort of pony who saves Equestria and decodes the ancient mysteries of Starswirl is likely to attract ponies a tad more interesting.

This story is a sequel to The Draconequus-To-Alicorn Talk


Out of nowhere, King Sombra returned to take over Equestria and turn everypony into his brainwashed servants. Sombra destroyed the Elements of Harmony, sealing his victory. Or so he thought.

After Discord tapped into a near-unstoppable power, the full power of Princess Twilight Sparkle, Sombra found himself in trouble.

Will Sombra's magic be enough to survive the Princess of Friendship's wrath? If he lives, how will Twilight punish him? And should she watch her back...?



This story takes place in the Season 9 premiere, but the events of the Season 5 premiere and Season 6 finale did not happen in the same way in the continuity of this story. However, enough will be explained to understand this story (and laugh) without needing to read its predecessor story, or the 2 stories before it, other than to learn more about what the changes are and why.

Here are the two stories that happened before this story's predecessor if you want to check them out for more laughs.

Nopony Interrupts My FRIENDSHIP SPEECH, Starlight Glimmer!!

She Did WHAT To You?!

Edit on 11/1/19: I edited the ending to be more funny than it was originally with a suggestion I got. This also meant I needed to bump up the story's rating from "E" to "T".

Liz is a smart girl. She knows what she's doing, with only just enough drive for heroics and exploration to get her into (and out of) trouble. However, no matter how skilled you are you aren't ready for a swarm of unown to rip apart the fabric of reality and throw you into an unusual new world! Thankfully, the natives are understanding and quite helpful.
The issue comes up when her Pokemon team are spread far and wide across Equestria, and don't adapt to their new surroundings quite a readily as their trainer does.

(Pokemon/MLP crossover. Rating of 'Everyone' is pending at this time. If this story proceeds in a way that makes a 'Teen' rating more accurate, I will update it.)

When a story touches you deeply, sometimes the only appropriate reaction is to respond in kind.

This is an open anthology of minifics which continue or revisit other authors' fanfics — embracing and extending, and reflecting on questions raised by the work. Due to the nature of the collection, this contains spoilers for other authors' stories, though each chapter contains a link to let you read the source first (and a spoilered summary, if you want to jump right in).

Sept. 2017 note: This anthology is closed, but the project continues with Never The Final Word, Vol. 2 — now curated by FanOfMostEverything.

Many of the included chapters are reviewed by Present Perfect here. Several are Highly Recommended by Titanium Dragon!
