    Story: The Monster Below (Update Sequel Part 3!)


    [Sci-Fi][Dark] That image is straight up creepy!


    Author: Greenback
    Description: One of Equestria's greatest traits is tolerance. Every pony, whether Unicorn, Pegasus, or Earth, is accepted for who they are, and have their own parts to play in keeping Equestria running.

    But what if an Earth pony decided he didn't want to play his assigned part? What if he wanted to rise above everyone else, and become an Alicorn? Such a thing is possible...but the path to fulfilling one's dreams is never simple. Risks must be taken. Sacrifices must be made. And the question is always asked: How far would you go to get what you wanted? And would you be willing to pay a terrible price to get it?

    Story: Banishment Decree (Update Part 14!)


    [Dark][Crossover][Comedy][Adventure]


    Author: Chuckfinley
    Description: My name is Gilda. I used to be a griffon warrior, until I got banished. When you're banished, you've got nothing. No clan, no funding, no gold watch and no friendly job reference. You're stuck wherever the Griffon clans aren't.
    You do whatever work comes your way. You rely on anyone still talking to you. A speed-freak ex-marefriend. A megalomaniac illusionist who's middlemare for the Equestian Intelligence Service. Family too, if you're desperate.
    Bottom line is, as long as you're banished, you're not going anywhere.

    Story: Subjunctive (New Part 18!)


    [Adventure]

    Author: Integral Archer
    Description: The subjunctive is the verbal mood of abstractions and possibilities. To ponies and their indicative-based language, it is a frightful mood, awkward and unwieldy. To changelings and their language of nearly inaudible shrills, it is indispensable.

    Equestria’s inhabitants are a diverse race, no two the same color, who speak a language of concretes. But to Errenax, a changeling linguist well-versed in both languages and fascinated by their dimorphism, everything about them intimates a singular notion: that this division of moods and language is perhaps deeper than it appears.

    Story: Lavender Unicorn Syndrome (New Part 7!)


    [Comedy][Random]

    Author: Sharaloth
    Description: A terrible affliction has befallen the peaceful town of Ponyville, and the lavender unicorn and her friends are right in the middle of it! And the edges of it. Heck, it's pretty much lavender unicorns all over.

    A story unrelated to anything.

    Story: The Celestia Code (Update Sequel Part 6!)


    [Adventure] That right there is a cool cover.

    Author: iisaw
    Description: Princess Twilight Sparkle discovers a centuries-old mystery hidden in the Royal Archives. Her investigation leads through layer after layer of deception and misdirection, setting her hooves on a path that seems to be leading to a mysterious secret. Along the way, she learns that some friendships can be very, very strange.

    Story: Journey of the Graves (Update Sequel 10!)


    [Comedy][Adventure][Slice of Life][Humanized] - We don't usually take humanized fics, but this is apparently really good! So up it goes.

    Author: GentlemanJ
    Description: The eighth story in The Journey of Graves

    The Grand Galloping Gala, so far gone yet still shining bright in memory as if it were just yesterday. That night marked the turning point for Graves, the night he found something beyond the sight of his rifle, beyond the endless call to arms. It's a new beginning, a new life to spend with the friends he cares for and the one he loves. For once, the grey eyed marshal finds that he too, has a chance to live happily ever after."

    Story: Cheerilee's Thousand (Update Part 38-39!)


    [Comedy][Random]

    Author: xjuggernaughtx
    Description: How could somepony as amazing as you not have a Special Somepony on Hearts and Hooves Day?"

    With that one sentence, a thousand memories came flooding back to Ms. Cheerilee. A thousand memories of a thousand terrible dates that she'd just rather forget.

    Story: Scootaloo Dies a Bunch (Update Part 31+32!)


    [Comedy] "Scootaloo will die, and you will laugh. A lot." - Pre-reader TheSlorg

    Author: alexmagnet
    Description: Scootaloo may just be the world's most unfortunate filly. She gets the short stick on everything. Of course, it just so happens that that short stick will always entail dying. It's a good thing she doesn't seem to notice that she dies a lot, otherwise things might start to get a bit complicated.

    --
    Short vignettes which reimagine each episode of MLP such that Scootaloo dies in increasingly spectacular and insignificant ways.
