"Hearth's Warming? Hearth's completely set on fire, more like."

Written for Yoshikage Kira for Jinglemas 2023

Klugetown is not a place that rewards simple kindness; you have to be at least a little tough to make a living around here. Being quick with your wits also helps. Chrysalis likes to think she's tough, and she also likes to think she's smart, but in this downtrodden town she might've chosen to mess with the wrong feline.

What happens when a trickster and a changeling cross paths?

A not-so-serious story I wrote for SoloBrony, as part of Jinglemas 2018. Publishing it now because why not?

Rated Teen for a good amount of swearing. Yep.

Cover art by NancyKsu.

Tempest has been invited to stay at Twilight's castle after several months of not very much under heavy watch in Canterlot. Keen on the idea of getting out, she accepts. The one problem: After invading, and then spending quite a bit of time away from society, everypony is a bit anxious about her presence.

Once she arrives in Ponyville, Tempest is much less sure of herself. Sure, she's out, but what now? Will she ever be able to get a meaningful place in life? And what about her lack of cutie mark?

Timeline of alterations:
2/7/2019: First published. Yay!
15/6/2020: Somewhat reworked in an attempt to continue the story. Not much happened afterwards.
9/6/2023: Progress behind the scenes. Massive reboot coming up in the vauge and distant future.
12/6/2023: All currently published chapters rewritten and new chapters on the way. Changes will be published when the story is complete.
24/9/2023: Progress is slower but the story has not been forgotten.

Welcome to Klugetown, city of lost souls.

A serving-girl, turned captain of the skies, living life one haul at a time. A truant prince, who dreams of flight, out on a year-long joyride.

What could these two share in common? As it turns out, a lot.

• Ten years ago, the hippogriffs of Mount Aris retreated from the Storm King.
• Eight years ago, Sunset Shimmer left through the Crystal Mirror.
• Five years ago, Twilight Sparkle was taken on as Princess Celestia’s faithful student.
• Two years from now, Princess Luna shall return on the Summer Solstice.
• Seven years from now, the Storm King shall invade Canterlot.

On this year, Captain Celaeno and Prince Blueblood make an encounter which, though brief, they shall remember always.

Inspired by a Tumblr post here, about what would happen to the show if Twilight Sparkle was killed off and Tempest Shadow introduced in her place.

I made the first chapter of this story as an entry in More is Less, but since getting ideas for new additions to the world, and not feeling like they all properly fit the mold of that anthology series, I have decided to put them into this story.
This is still, on some level, an anthology, but all the events are related and I’m just looking into them at different points, akin to a normal story but with more time between chapters.

Co-written with RoyalPsycho.

After her misuse of the Alicorn Amulet proves to have legal consequences, Trixie Lulamoon finds herself consigned to Erebus.

Tartarus' minimum-security counterpart, Erebus is no less a subterranean prison. In her time there, Trixie will have to learn the ropes if she hopes to fit in with the crowd.

These are tales of Erebus' denizens, the days they lead, and possibly, the friendships they make in this unlikeliest of places.

While associated with the Spectrumverse, reading the main story is not a requirement to enjoy this anthology.

In an alternate universe, the Storm King finds a way to enter Seaquestria, captures Queen Novo and Princess Skystar, and interrogates them as to how to get to the pearl. It is up to Silverstream to stop him. After ascending a ridiculously long flight of stairs, the energetic hippogriff faces off against the cuteness-hating tyrant.

In part, this is a parody of the film, The Color of Magic, which I thought of due to a long staircase and the way the villain, Trymon, was defeated (and the aftermath). If you haven't seen the movie, you might not get the references near the end.

Note: In this universe, Silverstream is less fearful of the Storm King than in canon (What Lies Beneath).

After the Songbird Serenade's concert, Capper, Princess Skystar, and Captain Celaeno agreed to spend the night at Canterlot. Twilight had some thinking, yelling at Pinkie Pie was a bad idea, so she decided to continue her apology to her and her other best friends after Rainbow Dash interrupted when they were in the battle between them and the Storm King. Also, Spike talks to Capper, Skystar, and Celaeno about how he trusts them for sticking by his and the girls' side against the Storm King.

Sweetness ensues.

This is what the creators should've done in the movie.

Five 'heros' from the land of Haneton (pronounced Han-A-Ton, the locals are adamant about this) are rather unceremoniously dumped onto different parts of the world called Equis. None of them are all too happy about this. Their response? Much calmer than you would expect, this kind of thing happens a lot to them. Now, they are going to do all they can to meet up. Probably. Some of them can barley stand each other.

This story is my very first! I literally only made this account today! You wouldn't believe how long I've been lurking here....
Anyway! This story crosses the world of MLP with the characters from the latest game of D&D me and my freinds played (with permission, of course). Almost entirely homebrew as well! The characters are all pretty bad people by nature apart from, like, two (you'll see which when the story begins).

Any feedback is appreciated and I hope you enjoy!
