Wise Cracker


Just some guy, riding out his time.

Ocellus goes to her first Trader's Exchange hoping to get rid of some of her trading cards and get the ones she really wants: Harmonisers.

But between a collector who can't spare what she wants, a price-watcher who only wants to trade for something more expensive, and little meta-watchers who'll only trade for something stronger, how is she going to get what she wants?

More importantly, will she cross a line while getting it?

Trigger warnings: pony name puns, market exploitation, Heart of the Cards.

Apple Bloom is proud to join her grandfather on a trip to the Vanhoover Food Court: the biggest annual gathering of every pony who's anypony in the food business.

While doing her rounds as a proud representative of the Apple family, she finds a Unicorn colt with a unique cutie mark problem: he wants to be a farmer, but he doesn't know how. Everything he tries seems to be missing something.

Luckily for him, Apple Bloom is perfectly qualified to show him how to find the true meaning of his talent and figure out what he needs to do to be happy with his work.

And absolutely nothing will go wrong.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders are off on another mission from the Friendship Map, this time to Cornucopia, the home of Starlight Glimmer's former master.

But when they're faced with a problem they thought had been taken care of ages ago, tensions flare up, old wounds are opened, and the girls find themselves up to their ears in Timberwolves.

Figuratively speaking, of course.

This story is a sequel to The Worst 'Ling For the Job


The changeling Hive is getting back in business, and that means getting some defences in place. Taking a cue from Celestia, Thorax sends his brother Pharynx to purchase the best kind of defences:

Guard animals. From Cratus Thundereye, the Ancient Beast Dealer, and owner of Cratus's Crazy Critters.

What should be a simple shopping trip for Pharynx quickly devolves into a trek to a forbidden valley, numerous near-death situations for the ponies he got saddled with, a grudge match with a spectre from his past, and him having to *ugh* talk about his feelings.

This story is a sequel to CUTIE MARK CRUSADER SLEEPOVER AT OCTAVIA'S! YAY!


Scootaloo's had her heart set on the Sisterhooves for ages now, and Vinyl Scratch promised she'd take her niece and help win the big prize.

If only Vinyl Scratch hadn't been up doing a concert the night before. And why is Spike joining in with an obviously sleep-deprived Twilight Sparkle?

It's a day of chaos, as it becomes a contest to see who's the better sister figure, who's got what it takes to beat the opposition, and who's going to faint and/or vomit first: Vinyl or Twilight?

It's the day after the changelings ascended to their new form, thanks to the newly crowned King Thorax.

Only... he wasn't actually crowned King, and none of the changelings voted for him, and to be perfectly honest, he probably isn't the right 'ling for the job.

Why should he be King, anyway? More importantly, can he answer the question before the enemy army arrives?

Rainbow Dash has been writing a novel about a mare who is totally not a substitute for herself. It's not bad, obviously, but it's not fit for publication yet. And some of the characters... miiight be a teensy tiny bit offensive to her friends.

So when she realises she lost it somewhere in Ponyville, obviously she rushes to get it back before anyone can read her messy (but still awesome!) first draft.

Now if only she had the common sense to keep quiet about her search, too...

This story is a sequel to Junior Flight Camp: The Crusader and the Bullhead


(Cover art relevant to chapter 19.)

It's been a few months since Scootaloo learned to fly at Flight Camp, and she still hasn't brought her flying buddy over for some strange reason. But an opportunity presents itself: the Warrior Meet, a gathering of martial artists from all over Equestria and a chance to get lessons from the best. Surely that's enough reason for the little martial artist to finally come to Ponyville?

But a lot has changed since Flight Camp, and Scootaloo is reluctant to admit just what. As if that wasn't enough, the girls have to contend with an armoured alicorn prince and a ninja school hiding an even greater threat... one closer to home.

It's a whirlwind journey of self-discovery, complete with action, drama, comedy, and, of course, flashbacks interrupting the action, drama, and comedy! Also weekly updates! Expect a chapter every Saturday, and exclamation marks in the chapter titles, like any good manga.

This story is a sequel to Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger


Rumble's such a nice boy, helping out Scootaloo with her flying issues. It's really high time for the Cutie Mark Crusaders to repay him for his kindness.

Only one problem: if he was going to get his cutie mark in flying, he'd have gotten it ages ago. And they can't exactly turn him into a Wonderbolt, like he wants to.

But luck smiles on Sweetie Belle when she finds the next best thing: a pair of potential playmates for Rumble. Now she just needs to get them together.

Without the help from Diamond Tiara, the only pony who might actually be of any help in the matter.

And without letting Rumble know, obviously. He's a boy: they hate this sort of thing. It's for his own good.

This may get tricky.
