It's been one hundred years since all of Spike's friends passed away. All he has now is Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and sometimes Discord.

Feeling lonely one night, Spike remembers befriending the dragon princess, Ember, and decides to finally visit her after all these years.

They have a lot to catch up on.

Spike comes to visit Ember only to hide away in a pile of gold. What he sees afterward will change his relationship with her, and its something Spike would never expect from Ember. its Something that needs to be hidden and what would happen if its something the dragons would laugh at her.

Read here to find out.

Through her letters to Ember, Twilight finds out that the Dragonlord may be able to locate Spike's parents. A trip to the Dragon Lands and an emotional journey ensues!

This story is a sequel to Sharing the Night

Twilight Sparkle is the alicorn of the stars, and after a period of self-discovery, ancient-goddess-discovery and a minor case of malmanifestation madness, she has finally come to share the night, a city, her ex-villain status and a bed with Luna, the alicorn of the moon.

Things are looking pretty good for her.

The five demigoddesses she created out of spite? Not so much. Celestia and Celestia are a little lost too, and for some unknown, completely mysterious reason, dragons are flooding into Equestria—and they're not acclimating. Someone probably should do something about that.

It never gets dull in Ponyville, does it?

TV Tropes

With the disparate peoples of the world now closer than ever before, thanks in no small part to the efforts of Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia decides that it might be time for some more official collaborative efforts together. Unfortunately, trying to get world leaders to agree on something proves more troublesome than she had hoped.

Fluttershy had read every book there was on motherhood. She read every pamphlet and brochure she could get her hooves on. She was ready... or so she thought.

Neither she nor Spike could have ever prepared for the curveball life decided to throw them and they looked everywhere for help in figuring out what to do.

But maybe they already had everything they needed all along?

It's a well known fact that the bulk of a dragon's diet is gemstones.

To the far north of the land lies the Crystal Empire, where basically everything is made of crystal and gemstones. Included in this is a massively powerful ancient artifact.

Garble has a stupid plan and a bottle of hot sauce.

This story is a sequel to All That We Become: Between Love and Change

Ember and the Dragons have grown much since Aestus returned to the world. With so much progress made and so much to look forward to, Ember invites friends and royalty from across the world to witness just how far they've come.

Ember expected to get a few admirers when she became the new dragonlord. Well, more than a few.

She didn't expect that a large number of them would be ponies that she had never even met.

And she really didn't expect them to write physically impossible stories about her and Spike.

She's got a lot of misconceptions to correct. More than she ever expected.

The mighty Dragon Lord Ember slips away for an hour, to meet up with her secret mate.

Contains: two newly-installed world leaders who don't really know what they're doing, and some wistful escapist cuddling.
