Roseluck has decided to move to Ponyville to be with her two sisters. Fed up with city life, she is ready to kick back and enjoy the slow and calm countryside life.

There's just a tiny problem with the house she's looking at buying. It's nothing though. It's really nothing. There's just a lot of closet space — too much closet space.

Is she just overreacting, or is it actually weird to have an endless void in your closet?

Hollow Shades is a small farming and lumberjacking community, a tiny bubble of Equestria existing on the edge of the Everfree Forest. Things have been hard-going since the lumber mill was closed down and the town is slowly dying out. A young filly named Corn Crib however might have found a solution when she makes a bargin with a talking scarecrow she meets along the road. But who is Lord Barleycorn, and how can he possibly breath life back into Hollow Shades?

This is a lighthearted story that contains lots of OCs outside of Ponyville. The mane six will appear, but not until later chapters.

This story is a sequel to Breakfast with Rose


Spurred on by a class presentation and an unexpected—but not entirely unwelcome—new day job, I began to more seriously consider how I might fit myself into pony society.

Manual labor provides plenty of time to think, and strips away facades.

I wasn’t sure that I was ready for that, but I couldn’t put it off forever, either.

"Her thorns dragged holes deeper into her soul. She was irreparable. They would never know of her pain. They would never understand her depression. Her life was a void of solitude and imperfections. She was alone, except for her thorns."

Depression is an internal struggle Roseluck is forced to experience, but her misery is reflected in the one thing that makes her life meaningful. Now, all that is left of her is emptiness and despair, and she cannot force herself to live like that.

-"This story was like a rose: beautiful yet sharp... The story is simple, but the theme carries throughout everything said without getting overstated. Bravo." -Garbo802

The name's Burt. Just Burt. I'm one of the local apiarists here in Ponyville, meaning I sell bees and bee products. You know, stuff like beeswax, honey, pollen, and royal jelly. I just moved in a few months ago, and so far I have to say life around here is pretty good.

Now if only I could figure out what these mares are doing with my bees, I'd be golden.


This is the first in a series of standalone stories for background ponies from MLP:FIM Season 4.

First up: The beekeeper stallion from Castle Mane-ia, whom I’ve named Burt. Because reasons. This story starts off right where we left Burt after he got his bees back from three very silly mares.

Comments and critiques are appreciated.
