This story is a sequel to Lovie Dovie: Make a Wish

Oliver Howard Scatch is a man who some would say is pretty kind in general, but he has one flaw: He's paranoid and obsessed with his masculinity. Despite his rather shy personality, he tends to avoid anything he thinks would affect his appearance as a 'man', such as pink colors, not working out, and ignoring his car.

Yet, he's not too happy with his life the way it is. It's unfortunate that a strange drawing in his yard not only drags him to a new world but as a vehemently pink dragoness whose body is more delicate in shape than the rest and centralized around cute hearts. Now he needs to try and return home to his own body while being part of a group of dragons whose importance is severely underestimated among the dragon community.

It started when they first met. A growing flame that began to burn in their hearts. It was unknown to them what this flame was, but it grew stronger as they got older and their feelings moved on from friendship to something else. Some fires grow slowly, but when given time they burn more passionate and brighter then any volcano.

Just a small series of chapters (no less then a thousand words) of a new ship I like a lot.

Now with a TV Tropes Page

This story is a sequel to The Dragon Lord's Consort

Spike awakens nearly a year later. But much has happened in his sleep and absence. A threat is building in Equestria and it may tear at the relationships between Dragon and Pony. Spike's future is undetermined, with a role he has yet to accept and a struggle over his destiny, between the family he grew up with or the family he needed. With time, he may not be the same as he was before and what the changes that have manifested with him, may hold.

Sequel can now be found here!!!Dragon Lords Guardian

This story is a sequel to Hot Dragon Inaction

Ember and Spike's relationship has been getting pretty serious, the level of serious that starts to mandate certain conversations. Such as whether, if they do settle down, whether they want to bring a clutch of drakes into the family. The main problem is that the two of them are Busy with a capital B, and there's the question of whether they could make parenthood work with their respective packed schedules and the distances that are often between them.

However, there's another couple who has had a pretty hectic schedule, and their foal turned out pretty alright. And so Dragon Lord Ember and Spike the Brave and Glorious are now on the first train to the Crystal Empire to ask Cadance and Shining Armour for parenting advice.

And maybe they'll take some extra lessons along the way.

Shaping a loose collective of dragons into a formidable and regimented empire isn't the easiest task. But with the proper application of wit and willpower, she's started to chisel out edges in the previously dull kingdom, started to sculpt it into something powerful enough to stand the test of time.

Spike was only supposed to visit her as a diplomat, to help her hammer out a trade agreement between The New Dragon Empire and Equestria. But he's everything a dragon shouldn't be: conciliatory, spineless, peace-loving, friendly. He sees what she has to do - executions, browbeating, delegation - and balks, has the audacity to think he can help her.

And he's getting popular. Among them. They're supposed to hate him, but they're doing the opposite. And in a world where he's treated like royalty and could have been king, what room is there left for Ember? How's she supposed to govern when the mere presence of a foreigner is enough to shake the empire's principles to their roots?

**********************

This story is designed to be able to be read as a stand-alone long story. Similarly, Flint. is designed to be read as a stand-alone short story. For fullest reading experience, however, read the two of them together; chronologically, the events of Steel. come literally right after the events of Flint.

I'm gonna be honest, I haven't done multi-chapter stuff in a while, and I might have bitten off more than I can chew here. I've got it all plotted out, in my head and on paper, but actually making good on my promises feels daunting at best. "Bear with me" applies until I've published everything, I guess, and I'll try to release chapters on a semi-regular basis until it's done (and add a tag when it starts actually cropping up in the story proper.)

All of my thanks to Flashgen for helping me with this.

Dragon Lord Ember refuses to let her dragons be the only creatures in the world to go unreformed. So she orders her three worst dragons: Go to Equestria and make nice with the ponies.

Now Spike is stuck trying to help three belligerent and hypercompetitive dragons, with no idea how to keep them under control. Fortunately, there’s one activity everypony he knows enjoys....

Set after Season Eight.
