[[https://archiveofourown.org/users/Plonq/pseuds/Plonq/works?fandom_id=181558 The My Little Pony Stories by Plonq]]

* The author’s stories thus far present the adventures of the Mane Six and friends. They showcase this writer’s signature tongue-in-cheek dry wit, mastery of genre parody, polished writing style, and thoughtful storytelling in a wide range of approaches from cheerful to spooky to absurd. Characterizations are spot-on and vibrant. Among this fandom’s best stories. Three completed multi-chapter entries currently exist:

* Synopsis: Tall Tales regales his fellow ponies with a story of why beauty pageants have been banned for generations in Ponyland. It all started with a reckless promise made by a prince, and six reckless wishes made by six princesses...

* Synopsis: {{Darker and edgier}} [[SerialEscalation like WOW!]] This door-stopping read is a retelling of the original ''Rescue from Midnight Castle'' TV Special that turns the story of the half-hour episode into an epic {{High Fantasy}} tale that completely averts the episodic nature of the original by having everything that happens have long term consequences of some sort. It also recreates the world of the 80s series into a more coherent mythology in a similar manner as some others already mentioned. {{Shout Out}}s, ((Early Bird Cameo))s, and {{Continuity Nod}}s are abound. This story is rife with AdaptationExpansion, FamilyUnfriendlyDeath, brutal {{fight scene}}s and AdaptationalAngstUpgrade.

* ''Synopsis'': Jenn, the admin of this website and author of the fanfics on it is a fan of the early 90s series ''My Little Pony Tales'', which featured the pastel colored equines in SliceOfLife situations. These stories featured the cast in their senior year of High School and dealing with problems most teenagers have at that time: romance, breakups, grades, part time jobs, getting a driver's license, worrying about college, and two of the fics even touched on the topics of drug abuse and while the other takes place at their high school reunion where [[GrowingUpSucks they discover just how far apart they've fallen]]. Well worth a look if you liked ''Tales''. Somewhat [[DarkerAndEdgier darker]] than the series ever was, but not by too much, usually.

* ''Synopsis'': The author and site admin retells the ''Tales'' universe in much the same vein as Jenn of ''Friends Forever'' (just above), but with more ''adult'' themes, and usually told from [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Teddy's]] POV. Warning, there is a lot of swearing, and the series handles the topics of sex, pregnancy, child abuse, and depression. Would calling DarkerAndEdgier by redundant or not?

* ''Synopsis'': Megan grew up.
* ''Comments'': It's rare to find pre-G4 fics, and even rarer still to find such good fics. It's a decent sized fic - maybe a little on the long side for a oneshot - that focuses on an adult Megan. It has some {{Crossover}} elements but it's quite mild.

* Synopsis: A new threat has come to Ponyland, Arachnis, an ancient evil that has more returned to take over the world. Now it's up to Wind Whistler and Fizzy to save with some help from BalefulPolymorph friends on an epic quest. It is very much a classic-style adventure story much in line with the best that the 80s series had to offer.
