Twilight Velvet is enduring the unique pain of a mother saying goodbye to all of her children, left alone in a home too big for her. Imagine her surprise when she begins to find friendly notes and gifts left around the house for her by a loving husband. But - surprise! They are actually the bumbling attempts of the evil Changeling Queen Chrysalis to kidnap her and ransom her to Twilight Sparkle! But when things take a turn for the worse with the changelings, will Chrysalis and Twilight Velvet be able to work together to save a life?

This is my entry for the Scribblefest 2016 Contest, winner of the Fluttershy Prize and nominated for the Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie prizes!

The Kidnapping of Twilight Velvet
by Apple Bottoms

Chrysalis attempts to kidnap Twilight Velvet. It does not go as planned.

This story was actually nominated in several categories, as it's funny, and it's sweet. It ended up winning The Fluttershy because the heartfelt moments are what really stood out the most.

Part of the Equestria's Crazies Universe

It's Nightmare Moon's first Nightmare Night how will she handle a holiday dedicated to her?
How will Luna keep her in line? Are they even going to have a chance to enjoy this Night?

But really we all know what the real question is: Who is Keyser Söze

Merged with Equestria's Crazies

Can a creature that feeds on love, ever truly know love?

After the blast leaves Chrysalis wounded and lost in the Everfree forest. She does her best to drag herself back to her village. However due to the severity of her woulds she collapses. Eventually she reawakens to find herself in a strange house, home to three mares and with their help maybe she could truly learn to understand the thing she calls food.

There are only six villains left in the entire world. Queen Chrysalis, Lord Tirek, Cozy Glow, King Sombra, the dread Grogar, and the Spirit of Malice and Madness known as Cosmos. All others have been reformed, seeing the light and embracing Harmony. Twilight Sparkle, ruler of Equestria, and her friends have decided to send these villains to a school where they can be reformed.

I'm sure that nothing else is going on.

...Right?

Twilight gets a visit from a familiar stranger. Except it's not a stranger. It's Twilight, from the future. As future Twilight hangs out with past Twilight, past Twilight comes to a startling realisation... Her future self is kind of a jerk!

Preread by Chicago Ted, thanks!

I had a pretty good life. They called me Spit Shine, I worked in the palace, cleaning this, doing that. Hell, I even got to talk to the Princess, and learned all sorts of interesting stuff. It was stimulating, prestigious, and hey, call me weird, but I liked the work.

Shame I was also secretly a changeling infiltrator with a name too annoying to pronounce in polite society trying to observe and potentially subvert your nation state.

I mean, these things happen.

Of course, you'd be surprised what you can learn about a pony when you have a different perspective.

This story is a sequel to The Adventures of Batsy Fluffentuft the Magnificent

Batsy Fluffentuft makes her daring escape. A certain street performer catches her eye. Possibly the only pony in Equestria with an ego to rival her own...

Naturally, a contest is in order. Will Batsy's ego survive?
Probably not.

"Sex" tag for dirty humour. Just to be safe.

Written for ocalhoun's 250k contest!

It is common knowledge that the two Princesses of Equestria, Celestia and Luna, are sisters. Their lives have been documented since their births, each over 1300 years ago. Both had been raised from birth to lead the three pony tribes, and to guide the two celestial bodies across the sky. They are opposites, they are equal, and they are sisters. It was all going according to plan until a being from their past showed up, trying to take over the city of Canterlot. In the process, revealed a long forgotten secret they had held for over a millennia.

With the secret out, Princess Celestia is forced to reveal her sister's true origins, why the changelings attacked, and where it all went wrong between the two races.

This story is a sequel to The Adventures of Batsy Fluffentuft the Magnificent

Batsy Fluffentuft the Magnificent's adventure in Canterlot is going about as well you'd expect. (Absolutely amazingly and all according to plan.)

Now, about that shower.

Written as parody-sequel for ocalhoun's Big 250k Contest Please check out the original story. (This one will make more sense if you do too.)

"Echo the Bat Pony 5" vector by Zee66

Once upon a time, there was a young unicorn who was scarred and battered by the cruel world until he was forced to retreat behind the walls of a solitary life as a bitter and spiteful creature. As he grew up, he remained a lonely recluse, with only his best friend for occasional companionship.

Until one day when he found something the world had treated even more callously and cruel than himself. She was a changeling, badly wounded and crushed until she hung onto life by a slender thread. The only chance she had for surviving her injuries was love, but that was no chance at all, for she was a monster in pony society.

And who could ever love a beast.
