Nightmares came for Princess Twilight Sparkle long after Discord had been defeated, waking her with a start and a gasp for air, having dreamt she was once more displaced in time. Breathe, she thought after one such nightmare, her face in her hooves evidence that her dream had been just that—a dream. She wasn’t displaced anymore. She was not trapped in a library. Discord had been defeated for over ten years now, and the peace reigning over Equestria was real. Everything was…- 2.4 K • Oneshot
Rift Shield considered himself a lucky guy. Most of the time. He had a job he enjoyed, working for the newly appointed Princess Twilight Sparkle in her new castle. The Princess, still fresh to ruling, was still getting her bearings with the entire process, and considering his several years of service under Princess Celestia, she would often seek his counsel in matters of ruling and the like. This meant they'd gotten to know each other rather well, and more than that, he'd gotten to know the…- 1.8 K • Oneshot
Once upon a time, Rarity the unicorn decided she really needed to finish the dress she’d been working on. She’d been putting it off for days now, mostly because the client had asked for neon-green and neon-brown as primary colors, and there was only so much pain she could take on a daily basis. Come now, darling, she thought while trotting down the stairs. The sooner you’re rid of it, the sooner you can go bleach your eyes. Jumping over the last few steps with a little air of…- 1.4 K • Ongoing

To say that I’d moved on wasn’t correct. To say that I’d let her go wasn’t right, either. The truth of the matter is that I had learned to live around her absence. I suppose it’s like losing a limb. You will never have it back, you will always know it’s gone, things will always be different, but with time and patience, things will become normal again. Not the same. Never the same. But normal. All right. Okay. My heart had learned to navigate blood around…- 10.0 K • Ongoing
Rarity Belle liked to think she deserved a great life. She was an up-and-coming designer; she’d graduated from school with honors, been hired immediately after a successful internship with a prestigious designer, and rented a one-bedroom apartment in the city without a guarantor—she was, by and large, successful. She was supposed to be living her best life. She was living her best life, she thought to herself, staring down at the sketchbook on her desk inside her private…- 1.0 K • Oneshot
It would be romantic to say that fate is in charge of us all. That it was destiny that Twilight Sparkle and I met, destiny we should find each other again. Certainly, I believed it then, but now? Now, as this part of my tale spins to an end, I think that’s not right. Falling in love was inevitable. But loving each other? Loving each other was a choice. That’s what love is, really. In all shapes and forms, it is a choice one has to make over and over again. The choice to love yourself, as…- 119.3 K • Completed
As Twilight walked away from Carousel Boutique, her hands shoved into her coat pockets, nothing felt exactly real—not the snow falling around her, not the cold biting her face and neck, not even her own body, which seemed to move from pure inertia, controlled by something other than herself. She was a princess, a job with some of the hardest decisions a person would ever be forced to make. Things like enacting wrong laws, affecting hundreds of people; international trade deals going miserably,…- 1.4 K • Oneshot
Once upon a time, Twilight Sparkle did what could be called a pretty severe ‘oopsie’ and created a multidimensional space where ponies from across all universes could meet up. What was initially considered the precursor to the end of the known universe soon became a happy accident when it was determined the space-time continuum would not collapse, and thus ponies across dimensions could meet repeatedly without consequence. Among the many councils that were formed after the joining of the universes…- 1.1 K • Oneshot
