#73) My best bro and I have been bronies for a while now. I would never bring up being a brony on purpose to anyone who didn't know. But now we're doing a project in Literature class, and my friend is doing his on how he became a brony. I don't think it's a good idea. In fact, I find it embarrassing. What should I do?
Answer: This is something that seems to happen reasonably often people become big fans of "Friendship is Magic", and then fancy teaching the world to sing by shedding light on it in a class. And while you could argue that older individuals liking the show is an interesting point of observation, it's not particularly aca

The shadowy alicorn landed in front of the steaming cave by the base of the volcano. Her wings folded against her side as she trotted closer, being careful not to slip on the mud and slick stones beneath her hooves. The air was filled with the stink of sulphur and the bubbling sound of pools of mud as they boiled in the oppressively hot and humid air. Taking as deep a breath as she dared of the stinking miasma she was surrounded by, she shouted into the cave as loudly as her prodigious voice would allow.
"Come forth Ille Qui Gubernat Monte Ignis- 'He Who Governs The Mountain's Fire!' I would sp

Perched atop her balcony as per usual, Luna rolled her eyes before turning to face her sister, a little perturbed that her moment had been interrupted. Celestia couldn't read the annoyance on her sister's face and went right on to speaking with her now that she had Luna's attention, inadvertently ignoring her sister's mood.
"Your constellations were quite the marvel last night Luna."
The princess of the night sighed and closed her eyes, exhaustion beginning to set in to her body after having crept in the whole afternoon and night before, "Why thank you Celestia,"

"And what is it that you are here for today, citizen?"
In the royal day courtroom there stood many ponies of all shapes and sizes, ranging from bulky earth ponies to slight pegasi to frail Unicorns all the way to the giant mixture of the previous three races, an Alicorn. Celestia sat on top of a regal and rich purple pillow on the side of the court away from the large doors that gave entrance to it. Next to her stood the green coated day captain, his posture rigid and his face plastered with a seemingly permanent smirk. On the other side of Celestia was her technically former student Starswirl who now spent his days acting mainly as her adviser and her chief spell maker. The rest of the courtroom was filled with various ponies who stood in various positions, some off to the side to observe while others formed a long line that reached the back of the giant and o

Air colored a lavender-blue, the smallest rays of light peaked over the horizon to shine towards the sprawling lands that lay over that horizon. These were the most petite of beams however, not enough to bring true light to those who it passed over but enough to signal the dawn of day. It was these lights that lightened the sky to the shade of the only one viewing them with great wonder, a being with the body of a pony, the wings of a pegasus and the horn of a unicorn while she was none of these things.

#88) I'm in love with Fluttershy. Kids at school have figured this out, and I can't hear the end of it... They do nothing but hate on me because I have sexual feelings for Fluttershy. Why are they doing this? Why can't they leave me alone? They even went so far as to follow me home and ah, watched me through my window having ah intercourse with a special Fluttershy plushie of mine... They went and told the whole school. I didn't even know they had followed me! After this, everything got worse.

Dark Side of the Luna
It was a beautiful night in Equestria. Princess Luna stood watching over the land, taking in the awe of the world around her, the greens of the fields that covered the vast horizon, the browns of the forests that decorated the horizons. She looked outward, keeping an eye on all of the ponies as they slept peacefully through the night, each one with their own stories, their own histories and futures. It had been a long day. The Pegasus ponies has created a mighty storm earlier; huge, dark clouds hung above; thunder cracked across the skies and strong winds howled through the trees. It was a beautiful yet frightening sigh

MY LITTLE POEM
Ponies with Ayreon[Click here for the accompanying song] Welcome Home
Bathing in prismatic light
Awaking free at last
Able to move on my own, I'm back in control
Only blurred memories left
Glimpses of the past
In my dreams I still walk the surface of Moon
I saw my home
From where I stood
What once was my home
From my thousand-year room
Isolated on the Moon
Locked within the abyss of time
A voice echoed in my mind
A shadow reflecting life
Resentful thoughts enslaved my soul, my heart
How did it wish to break free
Torment the world once seen
How did I wish it to leave my soul, my heart
Long yea

Princess Luna may enter your dreams,
To enlighten your nightmare,
and end all the screams.
But who can wake her up at night,
when our nightmares are too much to bear?
Maybe our dreams just might give her a fright.
Even our worst fears may be too much for her too take.
Our phobias could become her own if given the chance.
Let's hope our visions don't make her heart ache.
Next time you wake and your imagination comes to an end,
Thank Princess Luna for taking the stance,
For it is her, whose pschye must now bend.
Now there she lay, tucked in bed all warm,
ready to rest in her blissful lair.
And our fears manifest in a full fledge s

Weeping Rose Roseluck ran as fast as she could with tears flowing from her eyes. Running away, from Ponyville and her friends, trying desperately to get away from everything.

Finding trouble breathing through her crying, Roseluck’s attention turned to the group of tulips in her garden. It didn't look right, even after weeks of trying to get it to fit it still didn't look like it belonged. She decided it was time to fix it and crushed it under her hooves, removing it permanently.

A storm had blown in from the Everfree Forest overnight. Foals ran through the snow, laughing and playing as the older ponies worked to clear the roads. Trees bowed under the heavy load they carried, threatening to dump it on any unlucky pony to pass by. The air was fresh and clear. Every sound seemed calm and muffled.
Scootaloo plodded through the snow with her friends and their sisters, making her way to the train station. She shivered and pulled her wings closer against the chilly morning.
"What are we gonna try first?" Applebloom asked. "Snowpony building? Caroling? Ice skating?"

Fleur stretched her legs as the Princess' guards shout the door behind them. Why was she getting all this company in just one day? As she burst out a yawn she blinked and sipped the last few drops of tea gently and put her glass away. As she walked to the living room to read, she looked at the silver telephone and decided to call somepony.

All the objects in the room, including Celestia began to float about as if on their way to a new home.

An Overthought Review of MLP:FIM Season 2, Episode 4.
Note: This is only my opinion of the episode, not an objective rating of its quality.
0:00-1:49: Nightmare Night
Well, this basically sets the tone: This is going to be the Halloween episode. And it almost seems like the writers are trying to get all the stock Halloween jokes out of the way; somebody dressing up as an obscure character, an adult trick-or-treater tagging along with the kids, etc. This is good for two reasons: It sets the scene, and it frees up the rest of the episode for material other than the stock costume jokes and whatnot. It was also nice to see Granny Smith act

I blinked wearly. The world was dizzy and blurry, and my mind wasn't fully awake. Somepony was bent over me, purple tones flashing around like crazy.
As my vision adjusted, I saw that it was in fact Twilight Sparkle, and she was prodding me with a stick. "Yoo-hoo... Octavia... wakey-wakey! We gotta go gather up some food!"
I slowly rose to my hooves, and Twilight pointed to the dirt below me. It was dusty and dry, and covered in tracks.
"Did somepony go through here?" I asked her.

Okay, let me preface this by saying that I liked this episode. A LOT. The idea of a hoard of Pinkie Pies running all over Ponyville with their brand of zany, over the top excitability brought a whole bunch of images into my mind, not the least of which was the reaction of the townsfolk upon seeing this. I enjoyed seeing how her friends dealt with the problem all of these clones put them in, as well as Pinkie's own existential crisis as it unfolded. This was a good episode, and I heartily recommend it.
And now onto ransack and pillage this episode for every critique I can find.
