《(Y/N) and the Amulet- a MLP:FiM Fanfiction》Chapter 9 (g/fem)
Advertisement
You trot down to SugarCube Corner, your friends hot on your tail, your hooves clicking and clanking on the pavement below the steps to the candy-coloured door. You can smell sweets and baked goods from outside, and ready yourself for the waft of yummy scents when you step in.
Pinkie Pie, thankfully, is standing at the counter.
Stepping in, you're more relieved to see her happy grin towards you.
"Hi'ya (Y/N)!" She chirps when you approach the counter, Spike and Fluttershy at your side. They seem relieved as well.
"Hi Pinkie," you sigh, "I'm sorry about your party." You apologize, and she looks confused.
"Why? I thought it went pretty a-okay!" She grins.
"I-it was, it was great. I just wished I wouldn't have run out on you like that." You say, and she just giggles, shaking her head.
"It's fine! Man, you should'a seen the way Dashie's friend Gilda acted when we threw her a party! She was just so hateful-"
You decide that Pinkie is going to ramble on about her party with Gilda for a while, so you sit down, listening intently.
"And that's when I tried rainbows for the first time! Whoo, I'll tell you (Y/N), rainbows taste SOOO weird!" Pinkie had gone off on a totally different tangent after hours of storytelling.
Spike chuckles nervously before Pinkie can continue, stretching and saying, "Well, we better get going, (Y/N) has some more ponies to talk to."
"Oh, alright! See you soon, (Y/N)!" Pinkie calls, waving at the three of you as you leave. You wave back happily, feeling more and more relieved as you continue your journey.
You end up talking to Rarity, then Applejack and Rainbow Dash at the same time, since they were both at Sweet Apple Acres, preparing for the Running of the Leaves. You apologized to them all, and thanks to the fabled magic of friendship, they all seemed more than happy to forgive you.

Walking back to the castle, you smile and sigh, in your own world outside of Spike and Fluttershy's conversation behind you.
"Thank you guys," you murmur. They fall silent, turning their attention towards you.
You turn your head and grin, seeing Spike's toothy grin and Fluttershy's shy smile in return. "I'm so glad I'm here. You two have taken care of me since I got here, and I can't thank you enough."
"Well, don't thank us just yet." Spike chuckles. Fluttershy nods, "Yes, you still have to join us for the Running of the Leaves." She purrs.
You feel your smile grow, and your cheeks flush, "You mean.. You don't want me to leave?"
Fluttershy shakes her head, "I'm sorry about wanting you to in the first place. I was just.. Worried.. Twilight wants to keep you a secret and I didn't understand why, but.. I want to keep you here. And if I have to keep some secrets to do so, I will."
And with that, the three of you walk home, mere silhouettes against the orange sky and setting sun.

Yagacore: The Dungeon that Walks Like a Man
The Dungeon System is breaking. Now the mutant cores will rise. Zaria was just a normal woman, living a simple life, right up until demons burst down her door and ate her heart. Normally that would be the end of the story, but Zaria was reborn as a dungeon core. Except nothing is normal for her. Due to instability throughout the universe, Dungeon Core generation is experiencing some unique bugs and glitches. Most of these mutant cores just explode after only a few hours of life. Zaria is one of those cores. Luckily for her, there’s a way to prevent her detonation - she must find and form a bond with a human witch to create a striga. Only then will she be stable enough to survive. Normally, this would be a death sentence anyway, but Zaria’s mutation gives her an ability no other dungeon core has had before: Legs. Now a walking house, Zaria sets off to find her striga, fight demons and monsters, build up a dungeon worthy of being run by the greatest heroes in the lands…and feed the insatiable appetite of her mimic mobs. Life sure isn’t simple anymore.From the author of Dinosaur Dungeon, Factory of the Gods, and others! Plus part of the same universe as those books as well as Roots and Steel and Block Dungeon!
8 462Maker of Fire
On a world where magic kept civilization firmly in the bronze age, the Gods dropped an accountant and a mining engineer to start a political and industrial revolution. They wanted enlightened governance and a fast track to the iron age. They got indoor plumbing, paper airplanes, a cranky queen, and one very grumpy prophet. Dramatis Personae Aylem was a bookkeeping student when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as the greatest mage ever known, born into the ruling class of gigantic, magic-wielding humans. The Gods expect her to conquer the world and introduce double-entry accounting. Though Queen and numerical reformer, world conquest is stalled because everyone is scared of her and she doesn't like war. Emily was a retired engineer when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as one of the enslaved class of small, magicless humans. The Gods expect her to drag the world out of the bronze age. Though she's already recreated matches and wrought iron, introducing technology isn't going well because she was born a slave (oops) and having escaped, wants nothing to do with so-called "civilization." Asgotl was a whale when he died. The Gods reincarnated him as a griffin and expect him to have the same role he played in his previous life: to keep a reluctant prophet from walking off the job. If only they had remembered to tell him about it. Revised update schedule will be once a week on Saturdays, noonish Mountain Time (in North America)
