My stories tend to focus on emotional drama, especially family drama--and much feels, to boot. Buy me a Ko-Fi! ko-fi.com/brokenimage321

Rainbow Dash's dreams are bigger than her wallet.

Rainbow dreams of buying a van, and she's found the perfect one--but she didn't quite realize how bad shape it was actually in until after she'd already spent her savings on it. She needs to get it fixed, but doesn't have the cash or the know-how to do it on her own.

She also dreams about meeting Sylvia, the mysterious girl who owns the black motorcycle that appears in the school parking lot every morning. Sylvia's bike is awesome--and Rainbow is pretty sure that Sylvia herself is pretty awesome, too. She'd love to meet her--but no one knows who she actually is.

Rainbow Dash has no idea that the solution to both her dreams comes from the person that she suspects the least.

In the distant, cyberpunk future of Equestria, everything has a price--including love. And, if you're the sort of creature needs love to survive, you learn to do what you must keep you and your family safe.

And then some politician comes around to screw it all up. Time to have a word with him...

Based on the "Shadowrun" universe of games.
Tags for discussion of sexual topics, nothing appears "on camera."

Three sets of sisters—one from Ponyville, one from Cloudsdale, one from Canterlot—all make the trek to Sweet Apple Acres for the yearly Sisterhooves Social. They’re all expecting a good time, in their own way, but none of them expect how much the Social will mean to them—or to Equestria as a whole.

Yet another Season 1 AU—I’ll let you figure out the changes for yourself this time. :)

Some mild language, but I think it's mild enough to qualify for the "Everyone" rating.

This story is a sequel to Celestia XVII


Late one night, Twilight Velvet wakes from a deep sleep. She can tell that something is coming--but, in a million years, she would never have expected the ghost from her past who comes knocking.

Part of the Celestia XVII Alt-Universe, in which alicorns are mortal. Familiarity with at least the broad outlines of that universe will help this story make a lot more sense.

Content Warning: Very mild language, and mentions of death. I feel it's mild enough to warrant the "Everyone" rating, though.

Being seventeen is hard--especially if you happen to be a Princess.

I'm Princess Celestia, but everyone calls me Cece. My life has been crazier than normal lately--my big brother Blueblood is a selfish jerk, my best friend Twilight just moved away to Ponyville, and, oh yeah--Nightmare Moon turned out to be my long-lost somethingth-Great Aunt, Princess Luna. No biggie.

But, no matter how my life is going, I'm still Princess. I've gotta keep it together. Somehow. I can make it at least until the Grand Galloping Gala in a month-and-a-half... right?

A new AU, Season 1 AU, in which Celestia is mortal, and the same age as Twilight. Keep reading for shenanigans!

Rated Teen for brief-but-strong language in later chapters, and some crass dialogue. Otherwise, it's a pretty "soft" Teen.

As always, this story is written and edited. New chapters will post every morning until completion.

A great many ponies made a great many mistakes leading up to the Canterlot Wedding.

Their biggest was assuming Cadance was the only target.

The Canterlot Wedding was two weeks ago. Celestia has not been seen in public since. She has a secret--something dark and terrible--something that could bring down all of Equestria.

Celestia is Changing. And only Twilight and Rarity can help...

Rated Teen for some (very) mild language.

This story is a sequel to For the Good of Equestria


"Are these the shadows of the things that will be, or are they shadows of things that may be, only?”
-Ebeneezer Scrooge, A Christmas Carol

"For the Good of Equestria" is dead. However, I left it in an awkward place: among other things, I never was able to explain why Twilight never became an alicorn, which made it feel like a bad fix-fic to me.

I've wanted to tell this story for literally about five years, and, though I will never write it as a novel, I've pulled together my notes. Please, enjoy.


If it wasn't clear, I'm very fond of this story, even though I won't be able to finish it. If you find a scene or chapter you like, you're welcome to write it and PM me the link; if it's half-decent, I'll add it to the chapter as an excerpt. Looking forward to seeing what you can do!


A Note On Formatting:

Most of the story is written out as a summary. Quotation marks are usually used to indicate spoken dialogue, but I used them once or twice to indicate names, places, and so on I hadn't firmly nailed down yet.

The "excerpts" are taken from the chapters, etc., I had already written prior to abandoning the project, and show what a scene would have looked like if I had written it out. The same goes for segments in quote blocks. These excerpts are presented as-is, with no further editing, and may clash with my notes; if there's ever a conflict, the notes are canon.

This story is a sequel to Someone Still Loves You


While editing Someone Still Loves You for Jowijo, I've suggested a couple different alternate scenes that didn't make it into the final product. I'm kind-of attached to these scenes, so I've decided to post 'em here.

Context is kinda necessary for understanding these, so go and read the original, if you haven't already. Also, make sure to show Jowijo some love in the comments!

Next chapter posts after SSLY completes.

Contains spoilers for For the Good of Equestria

In this alternate scenario, Celestia cannot save Luna from the Crystal Empire--and the price of failure is worse than either of them could have imagined.

Now Equestria is ruled by a family of warring alicorns, kept only from each others' throats by the fear of their own destruction.

But what happens when someone is mad enough to try and topple the house of cards?

Tags for implications of intense gore and an abstract description of sexual violence.

This story is a sequel to Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, Part 1: What's the Use of Crying?


Pinkie Pie is starting to figure this whole motherhood thing out, but now, Whiskey, Tango, and Foxtrot are beginning to realize their little family is different. They're starting to wonder where their Daddy is, and why he isn't around--questions that Pinkie would rather they not be asking.

Rated Teen for brief language.
