Pinkie needs help. She's been trying to find the perfect use for a word, but nothing has really inspired her. That is, until an innocent stack of pancakes gives her the spark she's been looking for.

With the assistance of her best friend, a metric ton of pancakes, and Twilight Sparkle, she just might pull it off.

But her brilliant plan hinges on one crucial detail, the whole thing has to end in disaster.

*edit: #1 SPOT IN THE FEATURE BOX ON DAY 1? THANKS EVERYONE!

Cadence and Twilight talk late one evening by the fireplace.

Secret Santa gift for Isaspsp from the Enchanted Library Discord server.

The Unclaimed West is a perfect place to enjoy some lighthearted crime and general thievery. Rarity knows this better than many, given the train she certainly did NOT just rob.

And what better place to lie low from such crimes, that she absolutely did not commit, than a sleepy little cattle town with a forgettable name.

Unfortunately for her, being a successful outlaw means that even the downtime between jobs can be dangerous.

It is a beautiful day! The birds are singing, the sun is shining, and the weather is nice and comfortable to be outside. To top it off, Twilight Sparkle has absolutely nothing to do. Nothing, besides settling down in the park with a good book.

But, as things usually go in Ponyville, things won't stay "normal" for long. It starts with a tree, and a sneeze.

Written for the absurdly delightful Arboreal Yearnings Contest.

Thanks, y'all!

Fleur de Lis has it all: a nice house, a great job, a physique that mares envy, and an invitation to every high society event in Canterlot.

So why, at one such party, does she want to do nothing more than to run home?

Sunset Shimmer is back from the human world. Her friends have all moved on with their lives, now it's time for her to do the same.

After a vacation traveling around Equestria, that is. A welcome back gift from Twilight and Celestia, she's got an unlimited use ticket for the Friendship Express and a link to the royal bank account to cover expenses. She hopes this journey will be her last big adventure before settling down somewhere.

Her next stop is the Frozen North and the Crystal Empire. Looking forward to the next leg of her journey, she certainly doesn't expect her life to change while en route.

This story is just one of the many stops on the Monorail! The event's theme is "trains". For a full list of content, click HERE! This is the 4th stop, but be sure to check out the others!

The previous stop was Girls' Heist Out by Typoglyphic.

You're more than welcome to write your own addition, the only requirement is rail transport as a major plot element or location. Have fun!

Keen Eye has a tough job as Canterlot's Animal Control officer, but it's one she loves. Surrounded by fuzzy, feathery, and scaly critters, and sometimes getting help from a certain Ponyville animal expert she definitely doesn't have a crush on, things could be worse. Then they got worse.

It started when jungle cats caused trouble throughout the city—well trained ones, at that. Then she met their bizarre master, and learned that he would be the least of her worries.

A little pet project I've been working on for a while.
Character tags will be added as they become prominent.

It's been a few months since Twilight Sparkle moved into the palace of her wife-to-be, the lovely Equestrian Princess Rarity.

Things are going well for the young sphinx, she feels that she is finally settling into her new home.

Little does she know that her peace is about to be shattered by the most unusual conversation. Just what about her paws does Rarity find so fascinating?

Takes place in Earthsong and Monochromatic's Raritwi Arranged Marriaged!AU, which can be found HERE!

Rarity and Twilight have been dating happily for a few months. At every given opportunity, Rarity takes the chance to tell their love story. It doesn't matter if anypony actually wants to listen or how many times they may have heard it already, she's going to tell them anyway. She cannot be stopped, such is the power of love.

And check out the story posted before this, HERE

It is said that when a pony makes a defining mark on history, that they are never really gone. That saying has multiple definitions.

When a young filly seeks peace in the presence of the long dead, events begin to transpire that will alter the course of her life. Help can come from the most unlikely places, Harmony always finds a way. After all, it is driven by the most powerful kind of magic.

Takes place long into the reign of Princess Twilight Sparkle. The other princesses are either gone or just not present in the daily life of Equestria.
