There would be no backing down here. No conceding, no making allowances, no losing. Ripple might be the director, but she was Ambris Knot. He had a big office, sure, decorated with all sorts of antique relics and rare books, but the library itself was her office. She was the heart and soul of that entire place, and—! And—! “Yes, I know you have tenure, Ambris,” Director Ripple said with a big, boisterous laugh, adjusting the sleeves of his suit before folding his hands on his desk.…- 5.4 K • Oneshot
XI. Little Gestures I didn’t say anything at first. It didn’t feel like I needed to. Or, really, if I must be honest with you, if only because you are now mine, I didn’t want to tell you. Partly because I still was unsure of the entire thing, still didn’t quite know how to act, but also because there was a...a… There was a secret little thrill to be had at having the upper hoof and using it to my full advantage. It’s true, there is something exciting about being on…- 45.2 K • Oneshot
- Twilight Sparkle arrived at the hotel’s breakfast area precisely ten minutes after it opened, which was one hour earlier than she’d arrived all the previous days. This was not because she was excited to eat, mind you, but because she barely slept, kept up the entire night by the fact that she and Rarity had kissed. Bleary, baggy eyes scanned the large dining hall, hoping to catch sight of her friends somewhere within the mass of ponies carrying trays around in varying degrees of tiredness.…

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…- 3.9 K • Oneshot
- “So,” Daring Sun said, wheeling after Ambris and helping her rearrange books, “this is going to sound like I made this up, but—” “Yes, that’s usually how made up things start,” Ambris mused, inserting a book into an open space. “Wait, wait, listen!” Daring exclaimed, handing a book to Ambris. “Look, you know how the Somisto people disappeared from Saddle Arabia thousands of years ago, and no one knows what happened to them?” “Hand me that book, won’t you? And yes, I…

- XIV. Words Spoken in Anger Sharp Silk hated the dresses. He hated them, and in retrospect, I can't blame him. No, Twilight, I cannot blame him. Regardless of how much heart we put into them, they were hardly a display of my abilities. They were simple and elegant, yes, but considering the fact that the submission deadline had been announced nearly three weeks prior… well… it's natural he expected something more elaborate. I was shamed when he critiqued them, but I was also not terribly…

Shall we swoon over the day Celestia taught Rarity thatFlying on Cloud Ninewas not impossible after all If Rarity had to find a word with which to describe that particular night, she would have settled on the word ‘remarkable’. Yes, a rather remarkable night due in part to three simple things. Firstly, it was Canterlot’s Grand Winter Gala, where designers from all over came to flaunt their artistic creations to the wealthiest of nobles. Secondly, Rarity was attending as the personal guest…- 4.0 K • Oneshot
I. The first time was a mistake—or a blessing, depending how you looked at it. Peering through her library’s window, Twilight’s horrified eyes tracked the dozens of raindrops smashing against the glass and then sliding down into the muddy ground. To say it was raining would be a generous description. A truly apt one would be to say it was pouring waterfalls. “Oh, Rarity,” said Twilight, apologetically turning to her friend of just three months. She’d invited her over to learn about her…- 5.7 K • Oneshot
