      The First Date Cover
      by Monochromatic Rarity appreciated everypony.  She did. Really. Except for right now. Right now, she really didn’t appreciate the gang of loud, rowdy princesses and ponies parading in and out her house as though it were some sort of circus.  She had a dress to make. Several dresses, in fact, because she had a business to kick back into gear, so she’d overcommitted herself, but it was fine, because she’d surely get them done in time if she was just allowed a few hours of…

      The Crunchwrap Supreme Cover
      by Monochromatic In her entire however-many-years she’d been alive, Rarity the unicorn had never been to Taco Bell.  Primarily, because such a thing didn’t exist in Equestria, the land of magical horsies, but also because Rarity the unicorn did not indulge in fast food, thank you very much. She was a lady of refined taste and impeccable physique, and she wasn’t one to commit a crime against Horse-God-See-Celestia and Fabulosity by subjecting her body to such trash.  But there she was at a Taco Bell in…

      1 – The Question Cover
      by Monochromatic "Twilight," said Princess Celestia, the two of them enjoying a delicious cup of afternoon tea in the library. She idly stirred her tea, lost in thought. "I hope you don't mind my curiosity, but…" She paused. How to say it? How to ask a question she wasn't allowed to directly ask? How, how, how.  "...But?" prompted her ever-faithful student, blinking at her mentor with curious eyes.  Celestia faltered, but then quickly composed herself, offering Twilight a pristine smile. She'd gotten…

      It’s Always In Alleys Cover
      by Monochromatic Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle had been the best detectives in town for as long as it mattered. Which was from the second they’d got their start at the Celestial Private Detective Agency, obviously. All the detectives before they got there were good-for-nothings so screw ‘em.  And yet.  And yet, despite being a dynamic duo consisting of the coolest and smartest private eye ever and also Twilight Sparkle—who was cool and awesome in her own way—their career was in…
    • The Art of Overcompensating

      The Art of Overcompensating Cover
      by Monochromatic Once upon a time, Rarity asked of Twilight Sparkle a very important favor. "Twilight," she'd said, rushing to leave and catch her train to Canterlot, "I am expecting a letter." "A letter?" Twilight had asked, watching as the unicorn ran to and fro, making sure she'd not forgotten a thing.  "Yes, a letter," Rarity asked, wrapping a scarf around her suitcase, and then around her neck when she realised she's the one who needed the scarf. "A very important letter." She stopped mid-wrap and looked…

      ~ Interlude I ~ A Research Log ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic “Tell me, wandering traveler, what do you seek? A roof over your head or a friend to converse with? We have naught but a few houses and a dozen apple trees, but you are welcome to our homes and our food.” “I seek the Princess of Knowledge. I have heard rumors that she has a library around these parts. I bring information on the one she seeks.” “The Princess of Knowledge? You are mistaken, wandering traveler. No princess of any kind has set hoof in our town for a very long time.” “Oh?…

      ~ Act I ~ 02 ~ The Princess in the Library ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic An eternity seemed to pass by for Rarity as she and the princess engaged in an impromptu staring contest, the little owl looking back and forth between the two mares. “Are you the Book Bringer?” the princess asked, receiving no answer from the shocked unicorn. Things were not going the way Rarity had imagined they would. Granted, she had never actually planned on meeting the spirit of an Equestrian princess, but she would have expected more… screaming and soul-banishing. At least she could…

      ~ Act I ~ 03 ~ The Questions in the Labyrinth ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic “Twilight, how are we supposed to live here?” “The princess will help me build a library here, Spike. I need to have my books nearby during my research if we want to find a weapon to stop him.” “But… how are we supposed to hide from him with a library here? He will find it! It isn’t as if we can build a secret library under the tree…” “…Spike, you just gave me a great idea…” The history of the Everfree Forest was shrouded in as much mystery as…
