A collection of short, random, vaguely comedic stories, for when an idea isn't worth a thousand words.
Cherry Strudel's New Glasses: A new pair of glasses might just change how Cherry Strudel sees the world.
Liquid Diplomacy: Princess Celestia negotiates a peace treaty with the llamas.
(Formerly) The Shortest Shipfic Ever, etc.: Despite the word count, the actual story is shorter than the title (or description). It was ultimately beaten in word count by both Super Trampoline and Present Perfect, which leads us naturally into
Canonical Mute Vinyl Scratch Breaks Up With Fanon Muteavia. You literally can't have a lower word count, and pictures would have been cheating.
Reading of the two breakup fics by AShadowOfCygnus
I Wasn't Prepared for This! Twilight discovers one of the seasonal joys of wings.
The Longest Sentence You're going in blind.
Mother Who is Pipsqueak's mother?
Twilight Sparkle Eats a Potato No, it's not a euphemism. Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Not sure if it's funnier if Black Stone is a stallion, or just looks like one.

I leave that up to my readers.
In canon, he's a stallion, though
Awk-ward.
.....snooort.
Ow.
So they're Spanish Fremen then?
Ooh, I like shorts collections.
You dropped a "that", I think.
Cherry seems to be taking it well. Let's hope Stonie manages to do the same. Based on the image in your blog post, I gotta wonder how sharing a cutie mark enters the relationship.
Short. Simple. Llovely llama llinguistic salutations!
5692365
I think that's actually as it was intended...
It does rather raise the question of what exactly Cherry Strudel thought he and Black Stone had been doing together in intimate moments. The implications are mind-boggling
5692472
Shit, you're right. Lesson learned: don't copy-edit after midnight.
I think I can answer that question, but I'm not sure I should.
Now that is a reveal.
5692365
Stonie has always known.
That's a good question. Odds are, they're different types of cherry, and just look the same to our untrained eyes.
5692472
I leave that entirely up to the reader.
5692362
I'm not sure what that is.
The llamas now visited Sun City.

Fremen - a desert-dwelling tribe of humans, from Dune and its sequels. Due to their desert lifestyle, they place incredible importance on water, which they recycle to an incredible degree - spitting on a visiting diplomat is considered "a gift of one's body's water" and a sign of great regard (and almost caused a rather nasty incident when meeting a group of diplomats who did not understand Fremen customs).
5692694 ....Inflamed labia?

Finally, someone else who hasn't read Dune! All I know about it is "The spice must flow" and worms are important in a way that differs from Tremors.
5693592
Thank you!
5694526
Yeah, that's pretty much it for me, too, except that I didn't know the spice was from Dune.
5694510
That's . . . um, that would be quite the inflammation. Especially since a horse**** is huge....
5694510 OMG I think we need to stop before the image.... Shoot.... Too late!
Pfft, oh dear...I question their sex life then.
I knew it.
5692472
Ponies are quadrupeds, and both stallion genitals and mare mammaries are rather hidden away on their underside near the hind legs. If Cherry is exclusively mounting Black and not the other way around, and always being the big spoon when they cuddle, he wouldn't necessarily ever come anywhere close to his genitals.

Nevertheless, you've got a workable hypothesis, and if their sexual relations are infrequent, and Cherry never got overly-creative in the bedroom (or wondered at why his 'wife' had such a square muzzle, and never happened to look under 'her' tail), I suppose it's possible.
You may be overthinking this just a little bit.

I'm impressed the word counter parsed this into 7 words...
Eenope!
You put a space before the ellipsis and I think it's being counted as a word. :B
6196314
Deleting the spaces didn't change the count (nor did the author's note at the end). I'm kind of curious what it considers 'words'.
GG.
6196330
It may take a while to propagate, too.
I know markup is generally counted as words. :B
6196330
Pretty sure Fimfic counts speech marks as words.
This good btw.
Cultural differences, my friends.

6196360

6196330 Fimfiction counts straight quotation marks as words, but not the curly or slanted ones. Weird, I know.
The suspense was killing me.
6196452
That would in fact account for the 7-word total. :B
6195077
Yay!
6196051
It's fixed now. 6196452 pointed out the flaw in the word-count code, and I just changed the story to reflect the correct word count.
6196491
I could have split it into two chapters. Put a "to be continued" down in the author's note....
Boy, that would have been a d
k move.
6196504
It does; I just replaced the original story with a new version, and now it's showing a word count of 3.
6199102 That would have been brilliant, but you did leave room for the poignant sequel:
Mystery and hope for their future in Part III.
Marvelous. A paragon of modern romance novels.
I came!!
wow, it's nothing
I love it. :D
6209057
Me too! :D
6206530
What did you expect with three words?
6199397
I suppose I could make that a second chapter, but if I do, I'm
