Story: Ponies make War (Update Part 5!)

Description: In a single night, the royal pony sisters are overthrown by an evil they believed they had long since defeated. The new royal family is as cruel as they are powerful, and under their reign ponykind suffers. But how can ponykind rise against the gods themselves?
It is up to the Elements of Harmony, under the leadership of Princess Luna, to restore order. First, however, they must face the most dangerous and terrifying opponent they have ever known: their onetime leader and now bitter rival, Twilight Sparkle. Facing impossible odds, the remaining Elements cannot lose hope, for this war calls for more than soldiers, but friends...

Story: Exodus (Update Chapter 4!) 

5 Star

[Adventure][Sci-fi ]

However, it has not succeeded entirely. Under the leadership of humanity, the Federation of Free Galactic states fought back. After centuries of constant warfare, the Imperium has been reduced to a shell of its former self under the fury of the galaxy united.

As Equestria Prime burns, Emperor Galaxis launches a desperate plan to save the Equine race. But can Celestia and Luna lead the battered survivors of their civilization to a bright new future among the stars, or have the sins of their forefathers condemned their people to a bloody grave?

jimmynator said...

how come almost all of there are grimdark?

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

Oh my... just LOOK at all the grimdark

You know, people probably wouldn't comlain about grimdark as much if we weren't so loaded down with them. >B(

banannagram said...

Start something new?

Seth, do you even look at the stories you post? One of these is NOT grimdark. ONE OF THEM.

Cold in Gardez said...

Five stories, four grimdark. Does this bother anyone else?

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

@Cold in Gardez

A good portion of us I would believe... yes >_<

ChaosDX1 said...

I would read more stories other than what I'm currently following, but I'm worried about giving them a chunk of my already limited time.

Nyte_Crawler said...

Rain without rainbows, thought that fic died since it hasn't been updated in like 2-3 months.

Fire Flash said...

YAY! Growing Pains! =D

Gayettix said...

Growing Pains isn't that grimdark. And now excuse me, I have to speed read another chapter.

KoA said...

Growing Pains updated! Awesome!

@Gayettix It kind of is, especially the Cloppin chapter. And the Hellmouth scenes.

Kits said...

e.e

I may try the Sci-Fi one simply because it's the only one of these that isn't grimshit

Joey the Joey said...

My Little Metro! I was wondering what was going to tide me over until 5:00 rolled around and the recording studio beckoned =D.

Side note: If Sunny Side dies, a piece of me will die with him =P.

estar686 said...

YESSSSS growing pains :D it has been too long.

Doctor Valor said...

My Little Metro and Pony Space?! IN THE SAME POST!?

Shadow Heart said...

SETHISTO!!!

I shall hunt you down for stealing my autographed photo of Rarity.

*sniff* T_T

Bugsydor said...

Growing Pains?

All hail our glorious queen, Twilight Sparkle!

Baree said...

"Try something new".

Yeah, not when they are all grimdark, except one :P

Jolttix said...

Hmmm... Through the eyes of another pony has not updated? Where did it go?

RedSquirrel456 said...

There's also Friendship is Magic Fiction, which has plenty of great (not grimdark) stories. Or Fanfiction.net.

Equestria Daily's story updates isn't the whole pony fandom, guys. :P

La Barata said...

Pony space:
FUCK THE HELL YES

PHR16384 said...

"Try something new"?! But I'm already following 6 incomplete stories! MY BRAIN CAN'T KEEP TRACK OF ALL THIS MADNoh look, Rain without Rainbows has an update. *le click*

Cloudynights said...

Pony Space and Rain without Rainbows?! At the same time?! The fun has been doubled!

The communist pony said...

*sigh* I come here to EqD for the best fanfics out there, and most of what I see is Grimdark. Let's face it EqD has become a breeding ground for Grimdarkf*gs when it comes to fics. Now don't get me wrong, I see the other material too and it's beyond AWSOME. But seriously, you allow blood and gore, but go nuclear on a little clopish material UNLESS it's tied to......you guessed it, Grimdark

Gayettix said...

@KoA: Well there are different kinds of grimdark. To me grimdark means a very dark atmosphere, and Growing Pains is at some point just lighthearted to me, and no more grimdark, but that's my opinion. :-) (IMO Cupcakes deserves a comedy tag, so...)
