Twilight Sparkle is an expert in unicorn magic, but earth pony magic remains a mystery to her. The books in her library have very little information about the earth tribe's abilities, other than their famous strength. Twilight is determined to uncover their secrets.

What she learns will change her life.

And it just might change Applejack's life as well.

Featured on Equestria Daily.

Spike is developing feelings for a certain unicorn who has white fur, blue eyes, and is involved in the fashion industry. That's right, it's Fancy Pants! He's just so nice and kind and... Handsome... It's been complicated, to say the least. Spike has never quite felt like this before, and the struggle to deal with these emotions is getting more difficult as time goes on. On a whim, he decides to have a heart to heart with Fancy Pants and try to get some answers.

Spike, while browsing his selection of naughty magazines, accidentally coughs and breathes flames. The magazine gets sent to Princess Celestia. Panic ensues.

Before Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy could head back home, the Hoofield and McColt families wanted the two to join them for a shared feast to celebrate the new bond between their families. And during that celebration, Twilight happens to find a stack of old letters in the basement of the McColt family fortress.

Letters between Grub Hoofield and Piles McColt.

Seeing that they were written before their feuds, Twilight decides to share them with the families to help unite them even closer. However, things might become awkward when the Princess begins to read them out loud.

I want to thank my buddy Zyrian for proofreading.

At a tea party with all of her friends, Fluttershy returns from the kitchen to find her beloved Angel Bunny dead on the floor. Obviously, one of her friends must've been the culprit. That leaves Fluttershy wondering one very important question: "Okay! Who killed Angel Bunny?"

But maybe not for the reasons everyone might think.

Now with a youtube reading! HERE!

Three things I need to point out. The first is that this story is currently unedited. If you are interested in editing, please PM me so we can talk.

The second is that while this story takes place in the universe of Mr. Disc, and taken place a year after "The Curiosity of Mr. Disc," this is not part of the Mr. Disc series. In fact, Julius Disc is actually a side character.

And the third thing that you need to know is that this story does contain both F/F shipping (Lyra x Bon Bon) as well as M/M shipping (Soarin x Braeburn).

To sum it up, if you don't like one or a combination of these, you know where the exit button is.

Taken place about a year after the events that unfolded in "The Curiosity of Mr. Disc," a new teacher arrives at CHS. A Violinist returns teaching after the death of his spouse. In the coming year, he will get to know four of his students where he will help them with their musical abilities while they help come to terms with his grief.

A special thank you to His Majesty PrinceCelestia for the cover art.

Twilight Sparkle is a pony who prides herself on a few select qualities, as many do. One of these things is the fact that she has a very wide taste in reading. However, she would never dream of reading an erotic story... until it happened by accident, so she says. Things would have ended there if she didn't somehow end up loaning the book to one of her friends. As Twilight Sparkle claims, she didn't realize it was actually pornographic until she was invested in the story!

This story is a sequel to Blossoming Roses

It's been nearly a year since Prince Blueblood and Fancy Pants were properly introduced at the Grand Galloping Gala, and to say it's been a big year for both is an understatement. It was no joke just what kind of field day the media got from their ever growing interest surrounding Prince Blueblood's newly arisen homosexuality, and boy-toy is the by far one of the most affectionate terms he's been called lately. At the very least Fancy Pants is supportive and kind, as usual. However it's evident that something has been bothering him lately, and even Blueblood has been having trouble deducing why.

As Rainbow Dash takes a nap, Rarity has some tea with friends.

There’s nothing going on, there are absolutely no stakes whatsoever, and they still manage to bring doom to all of Equestria.

Written before "Crusaders of the Lost Mark", so a small little tiny bit contradicts canon now. Sorry for that!

Proofread by Neko Majin C.

Upon arriving home from a trip, Twilight is shocked to find her teenaged little brother Spike kissing Rumble, a male pegasus. Spike has no choice but tell Twilight a secret that she herself never saw coming.

He's gay.

Thanks to Kill Joy for the cover
