An Old Favorite:

Twilight Sparkle travels to Canterlot to investigate why Princess Celestia has been acting distant lately. Faced with a harsh discovery, she finds a new friend in Princess Luna. But can their new friendship survive Luna's insecurities?

It made my cry. On the FIRST chapter.

Twilight Sparkle helps Pinkie Pie throw a thank you party for Princess Celestia. She soon starts to have concerns when Pinkie spends far too much time with the Princess.

It started similar, but very quickly went downhill after the Luna/Twilight scene because it lost the feeling.

According to Wiki it's gonna go into it's sixth season soon, and a 7th has been ordered; I'm very surprised I haven't heard of it until today.

Anyway, reposting my newest rec for the newest thread:

Magic, and Mayhem, and...Murder? Oh my... by Invictus. For anyone who's curious, it's a MLP/Psych crossover

Everything about this fic is great; the characters mesh really well, the Mane 6 and the Princesses are characterized flawlessly, there's some great worldbuilding, and Shawn's an awesome character to read, a mix between Richard Castle, Patrick Jane, and Harry Dresden ; in other words he's a snarky, charming, irreverent, lazy, hilarious badass. I joined FimFiction for this fic. Go read it now!

Here's a new adventure fic:

Via Equestria

Wishing to celebrate her sister's return to Equestria, Princess Celestia revives a competition long-forgotten to modern ponydom: a race over the kingdom's oldest road. Twilight Sparkle and her friends sign up to participate in what they think will be a fun diversion, but will their individual reasons for running breed cooperation or conflict?

Looks good, and off to a good start.

http://www.fimfiction.net/story/14783/Do-Pegasi-Dream-of-Flying-Sheep?

Rainbow Dash finds herself in the middle of a place filled with people she does not recognize, using technology she does not understand. Upon trying to discover the truth, she is met with a terrifying realization. Now, she must make her way through a new landscape with the culture of an entirely new race surrounding her.

So far so good, the twist seems to be that the 6 are either A:themselves from Equestria, or B:androids that are fully sapient/sentient and don't know it.

There was this hilarious little empathy test gag a couple of chapters in that was perfectly in character.

Chapter 2 of The Dresden Fillies: False Masks is up!

Chapter 3. Chapter 2 has been up for a while.

Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Now has chapter two up.

The latest chapter of Whip and Wing is up!

Here's a comedic oneshot:

En Fuego

By the same writer and of the same vein of Two and two and two, it fic touches on Twilight's rather unusual ability...

Of spontaneous self-combustion. Watch as Twilight becomes more and more frazzled...

The latest chapter of The Moonstone Cup is up!

Whoa...

Shgipping and Handling one of the BEST Derpy fics, and it's not a sadfic (seriously 4 out of ever 5 fics about Derpy are sadfics)

When Ditzy Doo loses her job at Cloudsdale Mail and Freight, she gets a job at another shipping company... only to find out their definition of shipping has nothing to do with delivering packages! Desperate for income to support herself and Dinky, will Ditzy be able to make it as a pony matchmaker?


Oh and Pinkie Pie breaks the laws of reality and physics, again, completely, frankly I'm amazed we're not living in a Salvador Dali painting after this fic

That's because you don't have a rinoceros in your room.

Contraptionology is looking to be pretty awesome. Nightmare Derp is best nightmare, and that's not even what the story's about.

Ah, practical reality breaking through SCIENCE! Start with Infernal Machines first though.

We had the Fallout fusion with Kkat's Fallout: Equestria (great but a little too grim imo) then the WoW crossover with Cap'n Chryssalid's World of Ponycraft (great but a little too caught up in WoW game mechanics/terminology imo) then the Mysteria crossover with JohnBiles My(stara's) Little Ponies: Friendship is Adventuring (great but too caught up in romance and human pony shape shifting imo) then ... ? So has there been a new pony epic adventuring fic lately?

Working slowly but surely on Star Trek: Harmony, which is Ponies+STO=Profit.

I have Friends of a Solar Empire, which is Ponies+Sins of a Solar Empire+Military Science Fiction+Humans+Metric Frakton of Worldbuilding.

If you ever need help, I love world-building and I play sins.

I have most of it in my head.

The problem is putting it on text without resorting to an enciclopedia.

I have the Elements of Harmony and the Savior of Worlds, which is welding My Little Pony G1 to Friendship is magic as the distant past and minor crossovers with Transformers, GI Joe and Jem.

I don't have a rhino, I have an Entelodont, rhinos are so last season


Thanks to that fic there is no fourth wall anymore, it's gone, Pinkie brought it crashing down like East and West Berlin


I've been reading the Inner Carcophany series lately with the newest installment being Fading Kindness


The premise is Fluttershy having Flutterbitch stuck in her head after Discord was beaten, before she kept her in check, now the walls are falling, the fic takes place around the time of the Iron Will episode. It's pretty dark (but not needlessly so) and very gripping to see Fluttershy jump right past Flutterbitch and turn into Flutterdemon

Such BLASPHEMY... I must repond with appropiate levels of crazy.

[Dalí]"I seeee... a rinóceros![/Dalí]

In other, slightly more relevant news: Black Rain, the [PROTOTYPE] crossover I mentioned earlier, just updated.

So go check that out.

That was a great movie.
