The Wasteland Bouquet. Just another bar, in just another town. The same old crowd, even when the faces change. Prospectors, scavengers, anyone that's down and out or just needs to tell their story, get things off their chest. Unicorn, Earth Pony, Pegasus, even Griffon, everyone is welcome. Walk on in, get yourself a drink, and cry your heart out to the pretty mare behind the bar, or maybe the quiet mare with the cold eyes. That's what they're there for, after all.

Thing is, they have their own story. It may not be heard very often, but here it is. Because every pony has a story, and those stories need to be told.

My second place entry for the Fallout: Equestria 500 members writing competition, choosing the theme "Before the bombs".

This isn't a tale of great heroism, of any great battle fought hard and won well. Deadbolt Tumbler never really had any driving force in his life, he didn't have a special somepony, he didn't even have any friends. He was content to do his job to the best of his abilities everyday and live out his life in peace as he always had, but the great war was now in full swing, and as it often does, fate decides to intervene. On the afternoon of his 18th birthday, he was drafted to fight for his country, throwing him into a world of new experiences that threaten to shatter his fragile perception of friends, love, and loss. Although he had written them off as nothing more than fables as a colt, he soon comes to see that the monsters from the tales of old, still roam the battlefields before him.

The wonderful youtuber Plagen Shiki has done a marvelous reading of this story! You can find it here if you'd like to listen as you read!

Legends have a way of becoming romanticized. Even when those legends have darker origins than others realize. The Legend of Desperado and Lefty is one such story. Two friends that had a plan to help their settlement, and how it all turned sideways. Sometimes, not always, but sometimes, the ones to remember are the ones that morn, and for a NCR Ranger having a drink, considering what happened, and how it ended up wrong for two bandits, it's the closest that anyone can get to mourning in the Wasteland.

Inspired by Willie Nelson's Pancho and Lefty

Twilight awakens to find that she is no longer an alicorn, nor a pony for that matter. Rather she has become the fearsome Queen of the wasteland.

This started out as an exploratory idea, that patrons requested more chapters of and was viewable earlier for said patrons. Head over here if you want a chance of adding onto this story for just 5$ or to see stories early for just 3$!

Okay, I'm gonna level with you here.

I have way more ideas with (and without) this character than is reasonable, so I'm just gonna shove em up here so I don't wind up writing a third goddamn full story. Think of it as therapy for the author. Most of these shorts will be set a number of years after the end of Make Love Not War. Knowledge of both prior Atom Smasher stories is not assumed, but will help (and it's also kind of spoilery).

Oh, and I guess you get more Atom Smasher. Lucky you.

From after-war status report on SPARTAN-IIs

Name:Lieutenant Kelsey-090
Callsign: Echo Five.
Status: Assigned to Echo team as the team's sniper and second SPARTAN-II in January 2552. Listed as MIA after the Battle of New Alexandria with the rest of Echo team, presumed KIA in the glassing of Reach.

She goes by Ghost. The white unicorn mare is a legend. Nopony under her protection has failed to come back unharmed. A great shot with a set of impressive power armour, she is the last thing many raiders see.

But what they don't know is that Ghost is nothing but a bit of illusion and trickery. A front for my true form. My name is Kelsey-090. This is my story.

Little bit I wrote to get out some writers block. Just came to me when I was reading Fallout: Equestria. "Let's chuck in a SPARTAN to kick ass and take names! What the hell, why not!" So boom, have some human/SPARTAN in (Fallout) Equestria!

Also gore tag because fallout. Nuff' said

This story is a sequel to Suck it up, Buttercup

Vault-Tec never runs one experiment when two would be better! The second prong of their pony experiment watches the world around it with large equine eyes. Perhaps it is time to move. It's too late to close the door, the ponies have already left.

Expect weekly updates as two of my patrons are chipping in their bits in a friendship power play to keep this moving at a brisk trot. Neighing may be involved.

This is Fallout, but this is not Fallout: Equestria. It's Fallout with ponies, which is not the same by far.

In an isolated region near the southwestern coast of post-apocalyptic Equestria, a single Changeling has awoken. Unprepared and unaided except for an unknown voice in his head, he must survive the Wasteland’s horrors and find love in a land filled with hate.

This fanfiction is based on the fanfiction "Fallout Equestria," by Kkat, which can be found on Equestria Daily.

Six years have gone by after the Cutie Mark Crusaders went missing in the Everfree, and the town of Ponyville has changed. The Elements are all but spent trying to deal with the grief of losing the aggravating yet beloved CMC and the Princesses are tied up in a massive diplomatic battle between the Griffon Empire and the New Changeling Order.

When Applejack is going to visit Fluttershy, she runs across an unfamiliar group of young mares, three to be exact... and they're claiming to be the CMC, and they've got quite the story to tell...

Fallout/MLP:FIM crossover
Fallout belongs to Bethesda
MLP:FIM belongs to Hasbro and Lauren Faust
Story elements belong ta me.

Having been assigned a project about researching lost civilizations, and learning how friendship could have helped them survive, the Student Six try to find something unique. They find in the form of a sphere hologram projection, which tells about a different world that is plagued by ghouls, deathclaws, and super mutants. A world where various factions fight for survival, and to rebuild the human race in their image. A world that is both harsh and dangerous where friendship and decent kindness are a rarity.

A World Of Fallout.
