Octavia might know that she's dreaming, but that doesn't make dealing with this any easier. (CW: references to suicide attempts and minor blood.)

A year ago, a few months after the changeling invasion, a pony, only calling himself Joker, turned up and started to spread chaos.

He killed ponies, planted bombs, hurt the ponies of Equestria and the mane 6, badly.

Twilight is determined to find out why he did these things, she wants to understand, maybe even rehabilitate him. She goes in with a recorder and decides to interview him, listen to their conversations as Twilight tries to dive deeper into this pony's head and hopefully make sense of his madness.

Only question is, can she trust what he tells her?

NOTE: This is just a story I do when I feel bored. This is just a pony version of A Joker, not THE Joker. So don't go into this story if you expect a perfect replica. This is purely for fun, some light writing so to speak. This is just a version of A Joker. Please keep that in mind before you read.

P.S. The Joker is not Cheese Sandwich.

This story is inspired by:

Joker
The killing Joke
Dark Knight Rises
DC Comics

Why is pinkie always trying to make everyone else smile? During her daily rummaging, she comes across a letter she thought she had lost long ago. And through it, reminded of a mistake she made to someone close.

A short written due to some recent events in my life.

Don't know who's cover art this is.

Winter is cold, winter is dark, and winter is miserable. This will be my last winter.

Part of the Borderworld.

I wrote this story a long time ago. I don't know how to describe it properly. It's filled with the despair of loneliness, the anger of isolation, and the fear of losing one's self in what others want you to be. It follows the narrator who struggles to piece together his own identity while burying a terrible secret from everyone around him who all have their own secrets.

If there is anything I would hope that you, dear reader, would take away from this story, it's that being alone doesn't make anything easier.

It was inspired by Fallout Equestria, but bears little resemblance beyond wasteland and stable and ponies with guns.

Tagged for violence, but not gore, as I don't think I wrote anything quite that graphic. If anyone wants to complain, I will reconsider.

This is the story about a boy who tried to protect his brother by killing their abusive mother.
This is a story about dying in the closet.

This is a story.

The human Tim was pulled into Equestria 6 months ago and has been living with Twilight in her castle as a guest ever since. Once he became more comfortable with his new pony friends, he started to show them the human movies the shaped his childhood. Nothing could possibility go wrong with that, right?

Warning: Tags are based on Movie commentary and what happens in the movies more than what happens to the characters. Spoiler Tags may be added later but for the moment, there is nothing planned that would require them.

Story inspired by taking Film Appreciation in College along with having to analyze even more movies for history classes leading to a morbid fascination with the idea of how the Main 6 would react to human movies made for Millennials.

This is basically a self-insert story. Less because I want to be the main character but more because 'Anon' is usually a young adult (18 to 25) and this character needed to be 40-ish and facing a mid-life crisis. Enjoy it for the train-wreck that it either already is or will become.

As a 'Weekly Movie Night' based story, I'm planning on having a new chapter every Wednesday until something shiny distracts me.

Edit: Also, due to the success of the story, I will be adding a Saturday 'Date Night' theme to justify publishing chapters faster.

Edit: Due a single recommendation of adding video games which I see as overwhelming support, I will add a gaming night every Sunday as often as I can keep up with the writing but it's a lower priority.

Edit: The occasional Interlude will be added to connect the story as needed for more emotional depth.

Edit: Family Only Thursdays and Guy's Only Fridays will be added. You guys are going to kill me.

This is my best story ever so I can't stop. The story must continue.

Featured in the top spot 4-16-25, and then continued to be featured in spots 6th or above 4-17-25, 4-18-25, 4-19-25, 4-20-25 and 4-21-25

Twisted Verses is an orphan, who was taken into an orphanage in Canterlot. She has a lot going on upstairs, specifically the memories of a twenty-four year old, human male named Alex. Alex wasn't exactly the happiest individual, and his memories had began to rub off on the little filly, in more ways than one.

Finn the human, one of the greatest heroes in the land of Ooo, is alone; in a new, unsuspecting world with none of the hardships and pain from his own. He must find a way to fight his past and prevent the arrival of a force; strong enough to wipe out species from the face of planets. And he will do that by any means necessary, even if it costs him himself.

Colt Detective is the story of Clue Chaser.

After his father committed suicide, he was taken in by his uncle Time Turner and now lives in Ponyville, trying to adjust to his new life there. But Clue is convinced that his father was murdered, even though no one believes him, which weighs down on him considerably.

Thankfully, with the help of some friends--including the imaginary voice of his hero, Phillip Finder, protagonist of A.K. Yearling's Equestria Noire series--he'll find his way and gain the experience and knowledge he needs to become a true detective and maybe even solve his first case.

Inspired by: Case Closed

Note: This is my first detective story, and I will try to make the cases make sense and work on them in fine detail. But this is my first detective story, so be gentle as you read it. And please don't read a chapter, then comment about a mistake, then keep reading the chapter, then comment again. Please read the whole chapter first, then comment, please.

Big thanks to PonyJosiah13 for letting me use Phillip Finder as a character mention and tribute in my story. If you're looking for an amazing detective story, be sure you check out his profile and have a look at his stories about Phillip Finder and Daring Do which was the first time I got introduced to the character. But there is a lot of great detective stories there, so go check him out!

And also big thanks to Hoodwinked MCShelster for the amazing cover art! Really love how it turned out! ^^

He was always the antagonist, but he never hurt anyone. They were used to foiling his outlandish schemes, but he has gone away and now those who stopped him are left to cope.
