      Snakes and Ladders

      Snakes and Ladders Cover
      by Monochromatic In a world of snakes and ladders, Rarity has had to learn a single, simple fact: It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single mare who desires recognition and success must, without a doubt, be a social-climbing bitch.

      V. The Slow Path

      V. The Slow Path Cover
      by Monochromatic A smile pushed itself onto her lips at the sight of a girl and her wheelchair waiting by the entrance of the plaza. The first thing she noticed was that Daring seemed fine, which brought with it immense relief for Ambris. She was fine. The second thing she noticed was Daring wasn’t moving. Not wheeling herself in circles, not reading a book, not anything. Just staring into the distance. Ambris was no longer certain she was fine. “Daring Sun,” Ambris greeted, maintaining her smile. “You’re…

      Autobiography for Twilight

      Autobiography for Twilight Cover
      by Monochromatic Mayor Mare launched a project inviting ponies to write their autobiographies for storage in the Castle’s Library. However, despite her thrilling life, Rarity simply didn’t have the time to sit down and write her autobiography, no matter how badly Twilight wanted her to do it. Then again, she wasn’t all that good at not catering to the alicorn’s every adorable whim.

      Up the Rungs

      Up the Rungs Cover
      by Monochromatic It started, as most things in my life tend to do, with moi. Specifically, it started in an Equestrian city that is as beautiful as it is deadly, much like myself. A city of wonders, of glitz and glam that draws your attention away from the vipers living amongst its citizens, whispering and hissing and judging your every step, every move, and every word. Does it sound like I’m bitter? It does, doesn’t it? Well, let me assure you that I’m not. Blue magic enveloped a doorknob, and a grand…

      VI. The Break Room

      VI. The Break Room Cover
      by Monochromatic They were in the break room when it happened. Lunchtime was usually a loud affair, the two of them engaged in archaeological conspiracy theories more often than not. But that time was quiet. Quiet as Ambris ate her sandwich, and quiet as Daring poked at her salad. Something was wrong—it didn’t take a genius to notice—but Ambris felt at a loss for how to ask or even whether she could ask. Daring was by no means a child, already one foot towards college, but all Ambris could see at that…

      V – VII

      V – VII Cover
      by Monochromatic V. The Humdrum of Routine It’s interesting how quickly one falls into routine, into patterns that are both familiar and novel, tacitly established as most things are. I never expected you to buy us coffee in the mornings, yet you always did. You never expected me to buy us tea at night, yet I always did. So many things begin silently, have you noticed? Or, rather, not silently so much as…there’s a word for it…unnoticed? That’s not quite it, but I can’t think of anything else.…

      Chapter 1

      Chapter 1 Cover
      by Monochromatic “If your life was a book, what would it be about?” It was lucky that Ponyville’s streets were empty, or else Rarity wouldn't have heard Twilight’s voice. She’d barely slept the previous night, staying up until six in the morning working on an order for a client, so her drowsy mind still had trouble processing sounds. It certainly didn’t help that it was a particularly chilly morning, and her scarf was doing absolutely nothing to alleviate the cold. Twilight had stopped in front of a wall,…
