Pipp has broken a new record, a 36 hour livestream! After a very long sleep and what can only be described as a fever dream she wakes up to a new day except something is very very different... She can't talk normally!

Equestria has changed—and right now, ponykind is experiencing a jubilation it hasn't known for an uncountable number of moons.

But parties always end eventually—and the royals of Zephyr Heights know that sooner or later, they'll have to return home, as wanted mares.

If nothing else, it's a good idea to get themselves in order before they do.

Pipp is turned into a phone and decides this is an acceptable state of affairs, and an opportunity to earn more clout.

Zipp has objections.

Somehow got to featured third and then second on 5/11/22! (Well sixth and then fifth with view mature on, but I keep that off so shh.)

Zipp is a cryptosister. This will end well, surely.

Audio reading!!!!

Brainstormed in the SFNW Discord. Thanks to Derek, Axxuy, Grey Vicar, Rolling Thunder, and Angius as major contributors.

Being the guards officially assigned to work directly for Queen Haven may not be the most stress free job in the world, but Thunder Flap and Zoom Zephyrwing wouldn't have it any other way. They've dedicated their lives to being there for her majesty, and come rain or shine (or whatever else there might be), nothing will stop them from carrying out their duties.

Follow the two on a typical day of service, juggling many responsibilities and assignments. Whether it be managing security detail when Queen Haven pays a visit to somewhere, smuggling in Alphabittle for a "meeting" with the queen, or even just making arrangements for Zipp and Pipp's visit with their mom.

All in a day's work for Zephyr Heights' best guards. The smiles from the queen are the only payment and thanks they'll ever need.

Since magic has been returned to the three pony tribes, Queen Haven has been sneaking out for unexplained reasons. That is, until she's spotted with Alphabittle in secret.

It isn't long before the media in Zephyr Heights goes into overdrive, speculating that the two leaders are a couple and that they're officially going to get engaged. When word of this reaches Bridlewood, Izzy eagerly anticipates planning a wedding.

But Zipp and Pipp aren't as enthusiastic about the whole thing. Pipp especially is less than thrilled with the prospect of her mother marrying somepony else. And it all has to do with what happened to Zephyr Heights' last king.

This story is a sequel to It's 'Cause You're Always on that Darn Phone

Things have been going well between you and Pipp. Your relationship is healthy, your friends are all supportive, and you even got the approval of her mother, Queen Haven. Now, the two of you are enjoying a leisurely visit to Zephyr Heights together, finally getting to spend some quiet time away from work.

Surely it couldn't hurt to indulge in a little bit of brushing and pampering, right?

Sunny is invited to a Royal Summit in Zephyr Heights. She's a little nervous about it. So what do her friends do? Take her to McWings, of course...

Before there was Queen Haven, there was Princess Haven, and the young princess, like many coming into adulthood, questioned the brightness and justice of the decisions of their elders. When Princess Haven learns that the history her teachers taught her might not be entirely accurate, she goes seeking answers for herself.

Every pony has an origin. This is Queen Haven's.

The night after magic returned was… interesting! That was a good word for it, interesting. Once everypony had finished being awestruck by working wings and glowing horns, Maretime Bay had to handle the logistical issue of housing several visiting dignitaries, guards, and tourists from their once-mortal-enemies (who, it turned out, had just not really given a flying feather about them).

Well, Zipp and Pipp volunteer for… alternate arrangements.

Which Queen Haven promptly regrets finding out about in the morning.

CW: Possible forced adoption, FMF relationship and off-screen threesome, Haven family drama, and possible (okay, probable) incestuous relationship that defies a cursory understanding of genetics.

Look, I promised y’all something fluffier than Spryllis, so here you go! Sorry to deny you the evening’s festivities, but those may turn up in a side piece at some point.
