After suffering from depression for many years Spike decides to write Twilight one last letter

Now complete with a Youtube Reading

It's been a year now that Rainbow Dash studies at the Canterlot Academy of Music. She lives in a small youth hostel, where one day, a quite improbable mishap makes her meet another resident, Soarin, who she quickly gets infatuated with. Everything would be for the best if her new (and first) boyfriend hadn't been the new superstar of Equestrian adventures flicks for teenagers. No less.

Oh, it sure sounds like a fairy tale... But it rather looks like a romantic comedy turned evil.

This story is a sequel to For Want of an Egg

Centuries ago, Princess Celestia stole a dragon's egg to fulfill a prophecy, and found it necessary to deal with the egg's mother to keep said prophecy from being compromised. But now that the prophecy has been fulfilled, and her time as a princess is over, Celestia decided that it was time for the truth to come out.

It was also time for Celestia to face the consequences of her actions.

This story is a sequel to An Impulsive Temptation

[Note: This story is M/M fluff between Shining Armor and King Sombra, which I happened to write up on a whim between other projects. Also, the cover page is a cropped piece from tejedora on Deviantart]

Several months had passed since Shining Armor, the Prince Consort of the Crystal Empire, began to bond with the very pony who was reviled by the crystal ponies for his sinister reign. The former King Sombra may have been stripped of his dark magic and tyrannical mindset, but his reformation within the castle walls was seen with little optimism by most. Regardless of that fact, the Ex-Tyrant couldn't help falling for the one stallion who was able to see past his mistakes. And likewise, Shining couldn't keep himself from reciprocating those feelings back, despite being married to the Princess of Love.

But much like his marriage, Shining knew that his resistance towards Sombra was depleting immensely as the months they spent together grew more passionate. And even with his attempts to keep a gap between the two halves of his double-life, the Prince knew that his lingering thoughts couldn't be separated so easily. So on the very rare day Shining had where he could spend an entire morning to himself, those thoughts turned into action as he tried to appreciate the time he had with his secret mate.

A lot of ponies wouldn't realize just how terrible Starlight's crimes were, Starlight included. Defeated, chastened, remorseful, guilty, now all that remains is for her sentence to be laid. She needs her record set straight, sentenced to a punishment just as severe as all the terrible things she's done. It's up to Twilight Sparkle and her friends to impart on Starlight Glimmer just how serious her actions were, and what consequences she will have to face for her many crimes against Equestria.

I've been writing in the fandom for about six years now and have collected quite a few literary waifs over the years that never quite made it to full stories. This is my orphanage for them.

Most are "for want of a nail" stories, but there are a few serious ones (along with a handful of completely silly tales). I'll update one every few days until I run out of stuff.

Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria there lived the three tribes of Ponies. The strong Earth Ponies, the brave Pegasis, and the magical Unicorns.

Each tribe lived happily upon their own lands, each land being a bubble of safety and peace sheltering each tribe from the violent and deadly magical storms that almost always raged right outside their territories.

Travel between lands was always dangerous and fraught with risk on those rare days when the storms were quiet, for no pony could ever be sure how long the corridors between lands would remain open. So each tribe lived by themselves, rarely if ever making contact with each other and would continue to do so for all time… or so it seemed.
