I. Without a way of telling it, time stretched out before Princess Twilight Sparkle like an ocean. Minutes melted into hours, hours melted into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, months into years, and years into decades, until the ocean of time swallowed her whole and she couldn’t even feel it around her anymore as she sunk to its bottom. Minutes could be as slow as centuries in this ocean just as easily as months could be as fast as seconds. “It’s a clock!” the…- 18.1 K • Completed
Rarity hadn't slept with many men—not because there was shame to it, but because it was simply not her interest—but she’d gone to bed with enough of them to feel she’d pretty much experienced it all, seen it all, felt it all. Even while still dating Blueblood, she thought she’d pretty much never feel butterflies ever again. That twisting hurricane in her stomach and below, the frenetic beating of a hopeful heart, the dizzying intensity of emotions and thoughts that made it difficult to exist…- 20.0 K • Ongoing
Once upon a time, Rarity asked Twilight Sparkle a very important favor. "Twilight," she'd said, rushing to leave and catch her train to Canterlot, "I am expecting a letter." "A letter?" Twilight had asked, watching as the unicorn ran to and fro, making sure she'd not forgotten a thing. "Yes, a letter," Rarity asked, wrapping a scarf around her suitcase, and then around her neck when she realised she was the one who needed the scarf. "A very important letter." She stopped mid-wrap and looked…- 2.7 K • Ongoing
Our story begins with a letter, an alicorn, and half her memories gone. ‘Dear Princess Twilight,’ it reads, written in beautiful calligraphy, ‘you have consented to magically-induced temporary amnesia.

Crucially, certain ponies in your life have been removed from your memories, so as to prove a very important point on the matter of destiny and…- 2.6 K • Oneshot
- Here is a scene delivered unto you as it happened and as it felt: It was a Tuesday afternoon, the weather a cold 40° degrees Fahrenheit , rolling gray clouds shadowing the university grounds and Twilight Sparkle, a half-full backpack hanging from her shoulders. Twilight Sparkle was, in that moment, committing two grave sins. The first—we will speak of the second at a later time—was the sin of hope. Of excitement, of desire, wanting, but she was oblivious to her crime, foolish silly…

- Today we find a despondent Sweetie Belle in a place where she wants to be: the bottom of a well. The well is as deep as Canterlot Castle is tall. It is made of blue brick, it is round and narrow, and crucially, there is no water in it so rather than floating, Sweetie is sprawled on the bottom of a well, her face scrunched up into a frown. A distant noise breaks the quiet, and she looks up to find, way off in the distance, a single pony head peering down at her. A call follows soon after, and she can…

Hi everyone. This is Mono! I need to make an announcement regarding the story, and I need it to happen within the story, and this is my website so here I am. I am sorry this isn't an actual update, but it's relevant to updates, so please bear with me. To anyone still reading this, or interested, or invested, I need to be fully upfront with you about something because it is the reason I've not touched the story in months (beyond Grad School) and I am at a point where it feels like cancelling the story…- 40.3 K • Ongoing
