Have you ever just been having a regular day, then suddenly, BAM, you're dead? Well, no, of course you haven't. But what do you expect to happen after you die? If the answer was getting shoved into an overly pink copy of a pony princess, you'd be lying. Worse yet, she made me an alicorn just like her, which causes a whole new set of problems.

Unfortunately, she was adamant that I stay and become her twin sister. I ditched her immediately in my bumbling confusion and fear, and who could blame me? The last thing on my mind was being here! Ponies, princesses, and twin sisters? What kind of fantasy story was that? I was on the run, hiding from guard patrols, and fighting for my next meal. However, my own hubris caught up to me in the end, and her super powerful mother, Cadance, found me and made me see how stupid I was being. And Cadance, is an absolutely crazy powerful pony, with an even more powerful maternal instinct. So when it came down to her word against mine, she was really hard to convince, and she wasn't taking no for an answer.

(AKA, Super wholesome, fluffy, found family. And me having fun tugging on heartstrings.)

The Orb of Almost only deals in false possibilities. Its prophecies tell the tales of missed opportunities, and of chances passed and ships that sailed. Flurry Heart thinks that's bullshit, and she's determined to prove it.

A collaboration with Shaslan, written as part of the Quills and Sofas Duos 3 Contest.

Twilight Sparkle is a creature of habit. To her, perfection is found in the familiar: best friends, comfort food, and wholesome, everyday fun.

Unfortunately, even the simplest equation has unexpected perturbations. Can Twilight ever regain the lost familiarity of her daily routine?

"The Same" (cover art), by dragon discord, was part of the art competition and inspired by this story.

It's time for Flurry Heart to start using the potty. Judging by her past behaviour though, this might be quite a dangerous proposition... Fortunately, like always, Auntie Twilight has a plan to make it work out. But will it work?

This story is a sequel to All That We Become: I Am the Deep

In spite of how well things have been with Cadence and her family following their reconciliation and newfound bond, Chrysalis is still quite shocked when she is asked to spend the day with Shining Armor and Flurry at the traveling fair. The seemingly benign trip becomes something far more important for both of them as one last awkward wall between the two finally falls.

When your daughter dresses in all black, talks to changelings and tells you that life is meaningless, you know she became an irredeemable villain.
She must be killed. Shining Armor knows it.
Cadance says it's just a phase, but he knows.
It's definitely not a phase.

Made for the Shining Armor is a Terrible Dad contest. Couldn't resist writing about that big dumb unicorn.

With Cadance off on important royal business for an entire day, it's up to Shining Armor to look after his two-year-old tike, Flurry Heart, until her mother gets back. But surely this loving, albeit absentminded father is up to the task. Right? Right!?

Written for the Shining Armor is a Terrible Dad 2024 Competition.

She was taught to fear the creaking of branches above her head. Nightmares consist of wandering through the trees in flight, pursued by a horrendous shape just out of sight that would be her end if it caught her.

Flurry Heart knows the rules of peace that keep her village a harmonious place, as well as the laws that keep them all alive:

No one is to enter the woods.
An offering will be left at the edge of the woods during every full moon, and an offering will be retrieved every new moon.
Those who enter the woods will be made forfeit to those within, and they know not the meaning of mercy.

Never has either side dared to breach this uneasy peace, and thus each continues to survive- perhaps even begin to flourish after so many dark years of struggle they had endured.
Until now.

Sunny Starscout has set out on the path of reunifying Equestria. She's found a circle of friends, showed the tribes that they can co-exist, and even restored magic to the land.

Yet, there are questions that remained unanswered. What led to the breaking of the tribes in the first place? How did things go so very wrong? And just what is the best path forward in undoing centuries upon centuries of damage?

Sunny seeks the answers from those who came before, but has failed to consider the age-old adage; be careful what questions you ask...

...because you may not like the answers.

It is many years after the end of the original Mane 6's adventures in friendship, but the story is not over. Flurry Heart, now a late teen, just graduated Magic High School, and has been invited to Ponyville to celebrate with her Aunt Twilight (now an important figure in Equestria), and her friends. However, right after she gets there, Twilight has some urgent business, and the original Mane 6 (Plus Starlight Glimmer and Spike) must leave immediately, leaving Flurry back in Ponyville. However, she is not alone. She ends up staying with her "cousins", Twin siblings Pound and Pumpkin Cake, and soon meet three more Ponies: A quiet white unicorn named Whitacre, a country singer named Rough Rider, and a strange land pony named Goldenglow. They all become quick friends and start to bond, however something lurks in the shadows, waiting for the right time...
