      Getting to the bottom of the matter (a.k.a the wallet) Cover
      by Monochromatic The woman always stopped by the shop every other day at precisely six in the afternoon.  In fact, Rarity thought, her eyes trained on her watch’s hands ticking ever so close to six, she should be here any minute now. She—as in, Rarity—probably oughtn’t to be so obvious about it, should she? No, I shouldn’t, she told herself, walking over to the cash register and pretending to look busy counting the bills she’d already counted before. One, two, three, four—  Ding, ding! chimed…
    • Kill it with fire

      Kill it with fire Cover
      by Monochromatic It was a quiet evening all through the castle.  Four guards were posted outside Princess Rarity’s bedroom, each more bored than the last. This was good in the sense that it meant all was technically well but wrong in the sense that a bored guard meant a less attentive guard.  Thankfully, the sound of a hoof slamming against the floor quickly put them on high alert.  “Can you at least try not to look like you want to sleep?” Twilight Sparkle barked, meeting their sheepish…
    • Of Bridges and Buses

      Of Bridges and Buses Cover
      by Monochromatic We are all stories in the end.  Your heart will stop, your breath will cease, your flesh will rot, but your story? It will live on and on, in the memories of those around you, in the dozens upon dozens of little echoes you left in your old apartment, in the corner of the local bar, in the scars you left while living on Earth.  Two people sit at a bus stop. What they look like isn’t important. Neither are their names.  The one on the left holds a paper in their left hand, the thin…
    • Tamer of night

      Tamer of night Cover
      by Monochromatic It was strange to go on a date with Rarity.  Strange because they were essentially hanging out as they’d done several times before, but now they were dating? Which, in theory, made it different but the same, but different? They could kiss now? The thought was embarrassing, though, which was stupid considering they’d literally had se…se…  “Okay,” Twilight thought, grateful the nighttime was helping hide her heavy blushing, “moving on.” She focused instead on her feet,…
    • Tiny Distances

      Tiny Distances Cover
      by Monochromatic Shall we discuss Celestia agonizing over RarityScooching Away Five Incheswhenever the princess was near her? If anypony had no issues at all, it was Princess Celestia, Shepherd of the Day, Paraclete Between Earth and the Eternal Fire, Everburning Flame, Mother of Sparks, Lady of Molten Brass, Flame-kissed Viceroy of the Heavens, and the Crucible of Truth.  Or, rather, her ponies couldn’t know she had issues. Can you imagine what would happen if they knew? They’d panic, or worse! There…
    • A Request

      A Request Cover
      by Monochromatic Princess Luna still found immense comfort in the dream realm. As much as it excited her to be able to actually discover and move around New Equestria, her home—beyond wherever Pinkie was—was the dream realm and all its wonders—the one place she truly felt belonged to her.  But on that night, as she entered her realm, surrounded by thousands of multi-colored doors, she knew something was different.  Namely, that she was not alone.  With a spark of magic, the scenery around her…
    • Not A Humerus Time

      Not A Humerus Time Cover
      by Monochromatic Every morning, Gustave Bones followed a strict and precise routine.  First, only after waking to his alarm, he would acknowledge morning had arrived by peering out the window and joyfully greeting the Last Resort’s sun. He had specifically chosen this biome of the Vast because it had a sun to greet, unlike the one his good friend Howard worked for—that one was always dark as the resident hotel’s guests were, ah… how did Sophia put it?  Goth Emos?  Anyhoo! Afterwards, he…
    • The Curious Visitor

      The Curious Visitor Cover
      by Monochromatic “Now breathe in… and hold for five. One… Two… Three…” Sitting in the middle of the Boutique’s living room, Princess Twilight Sparkle did as Fluttershy instructed, breathing in and holding for five seconds, one of the many meditation techniques they’d been practicing for the past few days.  When she breathed out, she opened her eyes to find the pegasus smiling proudly at her.  “Very good, Princess! How do you feel?”  “Good!” Twilight…
