A storm is coming. However, that's not going to stop Fluttershy from helping a family of ducks to find a new pound to live. Fortunately for her, her marefriend is there to help her.

Cover can be found here.

Family is a complicated thing, it comes with all sorts of expectations, hopes, and unsolicited advice.

It also implies an abundance of drama, this time involving a Changeling Queen, an unlucky messenger and, at least tangentially, a rubber duck.

This story is a sequel to Fallout: Equestria - Duck and Cover!

NOTE: Duck and Cover is not required reading for this story.

Atom Smasher is a special kind of pony. She lies, she cheats, she steals, she stockpiles explosives and relishes their liberal application, and she's one of the good guys. She earned the praise of the locals after becoming the accidental hero of the wastes around her home, but once the day is saved, being the hero is boring. She needs a new adventure.

One day, a letter arrives, inviting her to join her brother in San Palomino on a search for their missing dad.

She doesn't remember having a brother.

It is, however, just what the doctor ordered. Now, if only this desert wasn't so damn hot...

A more serious look at Atom Smasher from Duck and Cover. Also being written at a less breakneck pace. Original by Kkat, cover art by me! Editing by IsiahJacobs.

Love can be a hard or an easy task. For some ponies it’s harder than for others. That’s something Twilight discovers as she tries to come to terms with her feelings about Luna and tell the alicorn about them. Whatever she tries isn’t helping her and talking was never an option. What will happen if she invites Luna to a night of stargazing? Will her heart be able to resist, or will she finally set free her love?

Edits: The silly Duck.

Cover by some pegasister
A small reminder due the problems from the last stories. I do not own the cover, nor the art itself. The art is owned by the rightful artist, in this case some pegasister. It's NOT MINE!

Sometimes, past and present blend together, making it hard to decide what is real and what is not. It can create wonderful dreams, but sadly, also the most wonderful nightmares.

Just a quick story to get off some thoughts and fears.

Chrysalis, after getting covered in milk and cereal, and being forced to take a bath, discovers a new interest. Ducks.

Much to her partner, Tempest’s, dismay, she becomes slightly obsessed with ducks. How will this pan out? I dunno. Well, I do, but uh, I’m not telling you.

Alright, so, this is an entry into the 2022 Crackship Contest. Also, today’s my birthday! Hooray!

So, you may be wondering, “Hero, why is the story so short?”

Well uh, to be completely honest, I kinda wanted to post this on my birthday (today) and I yesterday, and I also had a horrid case of writer’s block. So, I can up with the most simple story I could make.

Ooh, also, um.. if this does really well, I might do a Crackship series of my own. Or I might just continue with Tempest and Chrysalis being lesbians. Or maybe I’ll just continue this. Iunno.

Anyway, that’s all I have to say, enjoy.

A collection of unrelated short stories, mainly based around prompts from various group threads I've come across.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders have just about had it. They’re dying for adventure; thirsty for a little action that will spice up the mundaneness of their ordinary Ponyville lives. So when an interdimensional rift unexpectedly opens to another world inhabited by alien beings who share their feelings (and look suspiciously similar to ducks), their wishes might just be coming true. Both parties eagerly agree to switch places for a day to get a taste of what the others’ world is like. From barbaric Beagle Boys to truculent timberwolves, what could possibly go wrong?

This wacky tale is a crossover with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and the highly popular DuckTales 2017 reboot. Both being beloved reboots based on classic 80’s TV series, this hilarious story is an adventure for all to enjoy. Loaded with the humor and streak of heart both shows are known for, it is sure to entertain readers of all ages and leave them singing Woo-oo!

Note: This story takes place between “Brotherhooves Social” and “Crusaders of the Lost Mark” of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and “The Other Bin of Scrooge McDuck!” and “The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!” of DuckTales. Includes minor spoilers from all previous episodes. You have been warned.

The Massacre of Princess Luna's School for Gifted Unicorns set ablaze the coals of war with the zebras, bringing out the near end of the world.

That is not to say however, that everything in the school died in the pink mist.

[This is yet another spin off of KKat's Fallout Equestria.

I have only read FO:E, Duck and Cover!, and Starlight[ to chapter 15 any way.] So if i upset some ones plot it's not intentional.
Despite this being a FO:E story it has connections with my Stories in Stone alternate verse. Thankfully since there is so little on Littlehorn valley this story is possibly canon with FO:E itself....... or at least the wiki..... ]

The scope of the multiverse is so tremendously beyond the comprehension of most beings that, if they were to truly know what it meant, they would break down and be unable to live their lives the way they wished. Most worlds are lucky to be blissfully unaware of the true picture of reality, never to encounter the higher forces and civilizations.

However, when one of those higher forces make contact with one of those unaware worlds - intentionally or not, peacefully or not - everything will change drastically. Sometimes the change is slow, sometimes rapid. Regardless of the pacing, like all change, it is both good and bad. Civilizations have risen from simple worlds overnight and have crumbled just as quickly. Many can't handle the revelation, and those that can are not always the best examples of honor and dignity.

It is often said that each world - each universe - has a Song, and that all these Songs are related, intertwining together in a mesh of powerful destiny among the Spheres of the multiverse.

This is the story of how a certain world inhabited by Technicolor ponies found their Song and how it interwove itself in the Songs of so many others.

This is a story of finding meaning in infinite possibility.

This is a mega-crossover project of immense proportions covering dozens of fandoms. However, it is written in such a way that no previous knowledge of any of them - not even the ponies - will be required. The only warning is that there will be spoilers for any franchise you haven't seen.

There are several side-stories being written for Songs of the Spheres by several authors, and links to them can be found in our Fimfiction group, including links to non-pony related stories. There's also a Discord chat. Lastly, we have a Spacebattles forum. Discussion about the multiverse, setting, and future events can also be found there if you don't mind spoilers.

Has a TV Tropes page now. Needs love.
