A certain stallion of the Royal Guard has been 'staring at the sun' for too long. But with the help of his rather peculiar roommate, Brick’s about to learn the dangers of flying too close to the sun.
Brick Break wasn't the brightest stallion in school and he sure as hell wasn't the luckiest, but he worked hard; from nighttime bouncer to royal bodyguard, he made something of his life. With food on the table, a roof over his head, and the closest thing to financial security one can hope for in this economy, Brick achieved the Equestrian dream, mostly; there was just one thing missing-- friendship. Laughter, loyalty, comradery.
Brick didn't need a roommate, and soliciting one in a big city like Canterlot was just asking for trouble. Frosty had just sort of... happened. Hoarfrost Glitter, his roommate. With her help, he might finally find some peace in this world. After all, existence is suffering, but misery loves company.

At the moment before she leaves Equestria forever, Sunset Shimmer's destiny is taken away from her. A new path unmarked by pony hooves is placed before her.
Sunset Shimmer had everything. Personal protégé of the Sun Princess herself, top marks in the School for Gifted Unicorns, and the honor of being dubbed the greatest arcanist since Starswirl the Bearded.
Until she threw it all away.
In the last moments before leaving Equestria forever, her destiny is snatched away right before her eyes. Once upon a time the story of the lives of herself, Twilight Sparkle, and the path of Equestrian History went one way, a story that we all know well. But in every stand of woods there is a path untrotted, one with a different story and new experiences.

This is a brief "Humanized Pony Visits Earth" tale, based on a minific I wrote for (but was unable to submit to) the July 2017 "TBD" Writeoff.
Rated "Recommended" by Titanium Dragon! "While the Pony On Earth thing might put some people off, here I felt like it made excellent use of the idea … This is a short and punchy piece, and I think a lot of folks will find it worth their while."
Reviewed by Chris!"It's refreshing to read a story with a clear, explicit moral that nevertheless doesn't beat you over the head."
Thanks to Morning Sun for prereading/copy-editing changes, and to Titanium Dragon for the story description.

Twinkle Twinkle was a very strange unicorn who other ponies thought was defective, but when she is stolen away from the freezing pony nation by a hungry dragon, can she survive, and in the process bring friendship to both ponies and dragons?
While fleeing the Windigo with the rest of the pony nation, Twinkle Twinkle was stolen away from her family by a hungry dragon. However, she was not afraid. In fact, she was determined to learn all about the creatures before her inevitable demise. That was because Twinkle was a very peculiar little unicorn, with a mind that other unicorns considered defective, and quite weird. Can a strange unicorn who is unable to feel fear survive in the lair of a dragon, and save the lives of every pony and dragon alike when faced with a threat that they cannot defeat alone?
Twinkle Twinkle is about to find out. And in the process, she will bring the dragons a completely new gift they have never possessed before.
While running errands, Fluttershy finds two abandoned nymphs deep within the Everfree Forest. She quickly decides to take them under her wing.

But when she finds two abandoned changeling nymphs, her life is quickly turned upside down. Now she cares for young two creatures she knows nothing about, and they don’t seem to trust her.
She is determined to give them the best life that she can.

This story was written based on a simple idea from the HiE group forums. I haven't followed the idea exactly, but there's still a spoiler warning for those who want to check it out.
With the advent of the Canterlot wedding, change is coming. Sweet Leaf is an undercover changeling love collector, wife, and co-owner to the Sweet Roast Cafe, she can only hope that change is kind.
It’s the week before the Canterlot wedding and tensions are high, even more so for the changeling love collectors. With the results of the wedding, life is going to change drastically, regardless of the outcome.
For one co-owner of the Sweet Roast Cafe, wife to a loving stallion, and undercover changeling, Sweet Leaf can only hope this change is kind.
After trials and heartache, Firefly, undercover changeling love collector and wife, received a wonderful and joyous gift. But what will happen when the inevitable fallout of the failed Canterlot invasion reaches her home?
The explosion of love from the defeat at Canterlot hit harder and reached farther than any changeling expected. Firefly felt the effects as much as any, but she also gained something wonderful and priceless from it. Though this gift brought her a kind of joy she had never expected, she fears one question more than anything.
What trials will she and Fine Roast face when the invasion's inevitable fallout reaches them?
I thought having to move house was stressful. Now I'm Cozy Glow and I'd glady take the stress of moving over this!
The last few weeks have not been easy.
I'd finally been able to move out of the home I've been living in in the area i've been living in for pretty much my whole life.
The move, setting things up and adapting to my new home's differences and the new location had not been easy.
Still, I'd gladly take that stress over what I'm stuck with now. One moment I'm walking through the city to head back to the house and the next I'm Cozy Glow, hovering between a buffed up Tirek and mutated Chrysalis and it looks like the Rainboom Laser of Death is headed our way.
Oh, and, before we switched places, Cozy somehow became and Alicorn.
What the fuck is going on?!
Was inspired to write this after reading My Life As A Psychopathic Nine Year Old Filly and thought I'd give it a shot, as writing a character stuck as Cozy Glow and dealing with the aftermath of all her shit, especially the finale, would be funny

Wow. Honestly was not expecting that. Thank you, everyone. I will try to do my best to make this story worth that praise.
Equestria is real, and Jacqueline Kessler has been dragged into its cold war with human authorities. She might not know who's right and wrong, but at least she can keep her little sister safe. And maybe get that cute changeling's number...
My Little Pony is more than a franchise--it's propaganda, carefully crafted to introduce the human world to its neighbor a universe away. But instead of slowly influencing a few thousand little girls, the show took off, and built up metaphysical influence that is awaking its fans to latent magical abilities. The powers that be are doing everything in their power to suppress this change, and the magically inclined disappear to secret containment sites, never to be seen again.
Jackie doesn't care about any of that, she just wants to attend a convention with her sister and get them both back home again. But magic is insidious, and even takes hold of those who try hardest to reject it. She should probably just run away, but these ponies are just so dang cute.
Updates daily until complete.
This story is a prequel to Friendly Fire, but since it's a prequel that story isn't required to understand it. Likewise, this story is not required to understand that one. It was written as a Patreon reward for Two Bit. Thank you so much for contributing over the last few months to get this story written!

A mare and her foal. A human family. A buck-load of magic. They are all coming to a sleepy little town.
Welcome one and all to Cowwarr, a sleepy little town in south-eastern Australia. Strange things have started happening, but it's all okay, the new school teacher just arrived and soon the new doctor will be getting here. Just don't mind how folks look around here, something odd happened. Something magical.
This story has a lot of backstory and world-building behind it, as well as a huge plot ahead of it. Sit down, strap in, and relax with a beer (or apple juice for the foals), this will be a long ride.
Rainbow Dash finds a maimed, unconscious young colt on the edge of Ponyville and rushes him to the hospital, but nopony knows who he is and something about him seems off...
Rainbow Dash's morning was pretty much ruined. She tripped getting out of bed and landed flat on her face, giving herself an aching muzzle. She forgot to buy her favorite brand of hay flakes at the store yesterday and had to eat plain toast for breakfast. She found out she had to pull double-duty today and tomorrow on the weather patrol. Oh, and she found a nearly-dead foal, broken and bleeding at the edge of Ponyville.
The rest of her day became a whirlpool of stress and worry but the colt woke up, thank Celestia. Something's not right, though. Nopony can find his parents, he's not in the registers, and there's an unsettling look in his eye...
A human stumbles into a beautiful world filled with ponies who actually want to be his friend. But even with a chance at romance, his own darkness fights a kindness he can barely understand. Why do they care? And what is this world doing to him?
Having fallen into Equestria due to his own stupidity, Brendon finds himself more surprised at the friendly welcome of the inhabitants, than the strange world they inhabit. But, having been alone for so long, Brendon finds it very difficult to stop the darkness of his own mind. Meanwhile, how does he deal with a friendship he barely comprehends? Will he truly accept love as his own mind unravels? And what is the very environment doing to his body?
When the Crystal Heart shatters seemingly out of nowhere, the Mane Six are ready to face the horrendous she-demon that emerges from inside it...only for said she-demon to immediately surrender.
The Crystal Heart has been broken, and the ancient evil imprisoned inside has been released from the crystal prison, surely to wreak vengeance on those who had imprisoned her. The Mane Six are right on the scene and prepared for an inevitable fight to defend their homeland and loved ones.
Only for Luxure, the goddess of lust who was trapped in the heart, to give up almost instantly.
Very bewildered, the Mane Six question the supposedly evil goddess why she would do this.
Kind of my attempt at a deconstruction of typical MLP villain ambition and behavior. Also considered my return to trying to write as I've been out of it for a while.
Alternate Universe tag obviously for the inclusion of an OC, and the fact that "The Crystalling" doesn't happen in this continuity. Sex tag for minor sex jokes and implications.
