There will be more acts

Celestia, Luna, Twilight, Cadance, the four supreme powers of the old world. Born to lead, they rouse their mighty armies to conquer all before them. The mountains will quake, the seas shall boil, the sky itself shall crack open, AND NONE, save perhaps the chaos god of poor connection speed, SHALL STAND IN THEIR WAY!! At least, until a dark and mysterious strategist comes to challenge their supremacy. . .

This story is a sequel to The Great Retreat

After the retreat back to the border months prior, Trimmel spent months meticulously creating his plan for a second invasion of Equestria. With the approval of Queen Chrysalis, the Changelings once against advance into Equestria.

The Heer will not fail this time, this time, they will be victorious; this time, they will break the ponies.

Bloodhound isn't exactly the most imposing pony. She's scrawny, asthmatic, frail, and socially awkward. The only things she really has going for her are a semi-big brain and a nose like her namesake.

When the tragic death of a close family member happens directly in front of her, Bloodhound stumbles onto a shocking fact: It might have been murder.

But that kind of thing just doesn't happen in Equestria.

With only her personal trainer and an eccentric bureaucrat actually believing her theory, Bloodhound struggles to prove that a cunning killer is on the loose.

Rainbow Dash knows how to be loyal, to pull some sick tricks, and to go fast. She, however, is completely clueless in the matter of chair building. Luckily, with a little help from her friend Applejack, perhaps the two mares will get it assembled in time for the big event.

This is a dialogue-only fic part of a contest.
Inspiration taken from 6-D Pegasus' Rainbow Dash vs Chair, in that it has a chair and a Rainbow Dash.

Discord decides it would be funny to pop in on Twilight. That's nothing new. However, this time it could not have been more ill-timed, as just at that moment, Twilight had been testing out an experiment combining Harmony magic and the properties of Grogar's bell.

This permanently severs Discord's connection to Chaos.

Without magic and in a changed body, he has to find a new path in life, and it will not be easy, even with friends there to help him.

Cover art by me.

It turns out Ponyvile is making unicorns pay tax for their use of magic, since earth ponies and Pegasus have made complaints about how strong unicorns are and the frequency with which they use their magic.

Blackjack, grappling with loneliness, finds it unbearable to spend more than six hours apart from you. She bombards you with continuous calls, desperate to maintain a connection while you're engrossed in time with your friends. In response to her longing for affection and companionship, you choose to visit Blackjack's mansion, offering her the solace she craves.

This Blackjack has no relation to the one in Project Horizons, this Blackjack is the realistic and complex version that I made of her that appears in Mona Lisa Overdrive
(I mean, she acts like a real-life person with some of her personality traits)
This is a Spin-off series that I came up with, where you will have dates with my characters and others.

Picture, if you will, the most mundane of existences that could ever be imagined on our planet. What you just thought up was probably very much like my own, happy, regular, uninteresting-in-every-possible-way life. Simply mix in a healthy dose of 'staying away from women or romance of any kind at all costs' and you've got it down pat.

Well, that didn't last long.

I guess all that boring-ness was saved up in some cosmic karma pool or something, because I've suddenly woken up in a strange pony land where everything's flip-flopped and I'm treated like a helpless child. And all with a new body, to boot!

Joy of all joys.

Hi, my name's Heath. Here's my story.

RGRE

This narrative is essentially the culmination of everything I've wanted to see happen in similarly-themed stories but never did. It is my belief that perhaps the best reason for writing a story is that you really want to read one that has not yet been written. That was certainly the case for Libero.

In any case, I won't spoil too much, but the purposeful lack of Comedy, Human, or Slice Of Life tags should be indication enough that this fic will not be following the path of its predecessors.

Updates will likely be very sparse, as that's just the kind of writer I am.

This story is a sequel to Ponies: The Friendship

She was in the gig economy. She was also a little pony. Her people needed her, inspired to motion and action. That meant her life was getting a lot busier on the pony side of things. Her human life proved to be... understanding, or so she hoped.

Done for a patron, with a planned two updates a month!
