For centuries, the pegasi of Zephyr Heights could not fly. That didn’t stop some from trying.

Cozy Glow is a masterful singer. If she sings the correct sequence of music notes, she can make you cry.

(Cozy Glow first-person POV. Most of this was written on Friday night in about 2 hours.)

I am Spur. I'm a fourteen year old teenage filly who lives on the bayou with my Ma and Pa. Most of you know me because of my little sister.

My little sister was Cozy Glow. One of the most reviled villains in Equestrian history.

(A/N: This story is particularly dark, so I've been told. Read at your own risk.)
Contains series finale spoilers. Cover image credit.

Some praise for My Sister, Cozy Glow:

I had just finished watching the finale, which killed my incentive to write, but upon reading this, I'm glad to say that it brought it back. Thank you for writing this, MicahDebrink. --IReadYouWrite

Man, there's so much emotional depth packed into each and every word. --Thought Prism

This fic is far outside my usual fare but I am still enjoying it immensely. --SockPuppet

Autumn Blaze never found the cure for the Stream of Silence.

What if Wallflower Blush’s pony counterpart in Equestria…wasn’t a pony at all?

Enter Wallflower Blush. The most dangerous changeling in Equestria that you’ll never meet.

CONTENT WARNING: This story contains depictions of war violence which some readers may find disturbing. This is a work of fiction, and I do NOT condone the immoral actions in this story.

DISCLAIMER: I have never read The Perks of Being a Wallflower before. I'm not even sure what it's about. I thought of the title a year ago and thought it was too good of a wordplay to pass up; the actual story came much later.

Cover art traced from 1, 2.

Story is set sometime before the changeling reformation.

The separation of Earth Ponies, Unicorns, and Pegasi after Twilight's downfall should not have happened overnight.

But thanks to a startup biotech company called Canterlogic Pre-Natal Technologies, it did.

This is a story of how Canterlogic grew into the largest company in post-Twilight Equestria, and the ponies affected along the way.

The main chapter takes place in G5 Equestria, roughly a century before Sunny Starscout's time.

WARNING: This is probably the most emotionally difficult story I've had to write. This story contains discussion of eugenics which readers may find highly disturbing. THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION. THE VIEWS EXPRESSED IN THIS STORY DO NOT REFLECT THAT OF THE AUTHOR.

Legend has it that centuries ago, before Zephyr Heights existed, there was another desert town in the foothills, named Zephyr. It burned down long ago.

A companion, but by no means a prequel/sequel, to this story. My entry to 2023 Iron Author, with some edits.

You are Scootaloo. You are here in Ponyville, alone without your parents. Your parents now live in this faraway land called Shire Lanka.

You imagine what it must be like there.

My other story Tyler dreams of Equestria was derived from this story, however I decided not to publish this until later.

Rated T for mentions of death and dark themes. No Scootabuse to be found here, I promise.
