This story is a sequel to The Cheval Glass


It is in the nature of an enigma to confound reason, and sometimes, the bafflement caused to others is rivaled only by the confusion of the source. Pinkie Pie couldn't begin to explain how or why spending time with her Ponyville friends had slowly become a chore, or why seeing them so happy with their significant others made her heart ache. Forcing a smile became a daily routine that weighed heavily upon the once happy mare, and one day, she reached the end of her strength and retreated to the one place that she knew she could feel safe: her family's rock farm. The support and concern of her kin didn't answer the questions, though, and even removed from every reminder of what was left behind, the void only seemed to grow.

A tale of a fun-loving pony struggling to accept the realities of maturity, and of the stallion that would help her find the answers, one faltering step at a time.

This story is a sequel to Cutie Mark Catastrophes


Laughter, left without the will to force a smile... and Generosity, driven to complacency by the burden of holding out hope...

There are times when a pony is presented with a choice of great consequence, and not every pony has the strength to weather the storms of life standing tall. Rarity will be forced to come face to face with just how far she's fallen from who she once aspired to be, or lose the friendship of the only pony she's ever known to bring smiles in even the darkest of days.

It was only natural that introspection would come in the wake of something as monumental as a royal wedding. With the festivities of Shining Armor's betrothal long since past, Twilight has come to realize that there exists a tremendous gap in her studies of friendship, that being that she doesn't really have any stallion friends. That's likely because pursuing platonic relations with the opposite gender is rather difficult when there's a growing desire in her heart for something deeper than her friends can provide.

After an afternoon of disturbed study time and unexpected dental catastrophe, the last thing Twilight would have expected was for opportunity to come knocking in the form of a quiet stallion reading in her library. Enraptured by the chance to expand her education, Twilight bumbles into the newcomer's life without the faintest notion of the depth of the pony's loss. Though her faith in friendship is strong, it will take more than her magic to undo the scars of his past, and keep a heart once filled with wonder from succumbing to the power of doubt.

Set after the events of the season three pilot and before Twilight is crowned princess.

Life with the common cold? Unpleasant, but tolerable. Life with the horn flu? Much, much worse. Barely able to read, unable to use magic without it backfiring, and quite possibly the most miserable she's ever been, Twilight is convinced life cannot get any worse. At least, not until her nose starts talking back to her with all the refinement of Ponyville's resident fashionista and double the sass. Held hostage by her schnoz until its demands are met, Twilight must cater to her captor's whims, or forever be driven insane by a sneeze that just won't come.

Rated Teen for suggestive dialogue and delusional shipping. Wasn't entirely sure how to tag this, so if something needs to be added or removed, let me know.

This story is a sequel to Song of Whispers


It wasn't enough for the Cutie Mark Crusaders to simply find their Cutie Marks and call it quits, and all it took was one fateful day in their clubhouse with Spike and Ruby Pinch to set into motion a chain of events that would turn their simple lives upside down. Crushes are formed, friendships are tested, and will Spike ever get to kiss Sweetie Belle? Let the passion of young love burn free.

This story is a sequel to Under the Starry Skies


After a recent humiliating experience involving too much chocolate mead and karaoke that was less than "family friendly," Fluttershy flees into the safety of the forest to escape the mess she's made. Wandering aimlessly for hours deep in thought, she comes to and realizes she has no idea where she's wandered, is incredibly thirsty, and very uncomfortable under the late summer sun. So, when she discovers a chilled pond with which to slake her thirst and cool down, she pays little heed to the strange green bush on the far side. That is, until it opens its eyes.

Creds to OminousBrony for cracking the whip, and tossing in ideas.

Tired of the city life in Manehatten and longing for something simpler, Silver Moonshine uses his life's savings to open a business in Ponyville. While he is mostly well recieved, the one pony who takes the most issue with his trade happens to be the only mare that's ever caught his eye - Applejack.

Food ponies have it rough. For one thing, the ultimate pleasure lies not in physical touch, but in being, well, eaten, some enjoying this pleasure to the fullest and losing their lives. Parmesan, a pizza pony, came to Ponyville after narrowly avoiding being eaten in Manehatten. She never wanted much out of a relationship, but it would be nice to find at least one pony who can treat her normally without looking at her like she's just a breadstick. So, when she meets a fun loving pink mare that tastes of cotton candy and isn't bothered by her gooey complexion, she can't help but get a little cheesy.
