Background for the upcoming Ask series

Ask Garble

It's been almost a year since Garble enrolled at Manehattan University School of the Arts. Relocating to Manehattan and getting used to a more structured life was quite the adjustment for Garble. Good thing that by pony standards he's unbelievably rich! That tends to make things a bit easier.
He's learned a lot. He's even ...

Chilling at the beach

A large chunk of the family is having fun at the beach. These people may not be related by blood, but like their dragon counterparts they share a bond.


Dragons don't do friends. But why is that? The concept of friendship as it is understood in Equestria doesn't really exist in dragon society. Dragons have ...

Art jam: Ember and Jian

A eunuch caught these two behaving affectionately toward each other as teenagers. He reported his shocking discovery to the Emperor, who was having a semi-casual conversation with Torch at the time. As casual as a conversation with the Emperor can be, that is.
Torch accused the eunuch of slander, claiming that Princess Jia...

Art jam: forbidden boop

One of Dragon Lord Torch's greatest achievements was establishing the first-ever alliance between the Dragon Lands and the East Haysian empire of Manechuria, known to the locals as Longguo. News of this alliance shook other nations to their core. The Dragon Lands and Manechuria were already forces to be reckoned with independ...

Sneak attack

Many creatures pretend to be startled when their babies try to stalk and surprise them, to boost their self-confidence. Dragons are no exception.

Torch's father punished him for attempting this trick, but he himself plays along like his mother did before him.

Nesting Blaze

Blaze is due to lay clutch of eggs soon and Torch and Ember are staying out of her way.

Eggs may not take up that much space in the belly of an adult dragoness, but that doesn't mean gravid dragonesses do not experience symptoms that inconvenience their lives. Morning sickness, fatigue, mood swings, cravings, bloating,...

Adult Ember

Commission: Smolder the surf instructor

Molting Ember

Ember's molt happened in the middle of a hurricane. Fortunately for her, her parents had decided in advance not to send their molting children out, no matter what that took. Unfortunately for Torch, it meant toughing out the storm outside to evade the smell. Because hurricanes usually don't bring lightning he didn't mind it t...

Leafy seadragon princess

The leafy seadragons are one of the tiniest sapient creatures with a society of their own. At roughly twice the size of a breezie, they are the smallest variety of seadragon by far. They are elusive, incredibly docile and well liked by most creatures that know of their existence.

One day, the crown princess of the leaf...

Naga

I like the idea that every mythological dragon and serpent known to human culture actually exists in the world of MLP.


I sacrificed a lot of detail to make this happen. The MLP style is incredibly simplified. I really hope I didn't lose too much in translation.

The letter

It was a clear, sunny day in the Dragon Lands and a mail pegasus traversing the mountainous island nation was questioning his life choices. Not that he had been pursued by any of the dragons. He had just been flying for a painfully long time in pursuit of delivering a letter to one "Garble". Finally, he saw the rock formation...

A Dog's Mother: part 8

A Dog's Mother: Part 7

Part 8 will be here very soon!

Nap time

Big brothers make for a comfy pillows. They're great heaters too.

The freeloader

Garble doesn't mind his sister's mooching habit as much as he lets on, but inviting herself in and helping herself to his food goes too far.

Commission: caught in the act

Valentine's Art Jam submission

Commission: icy dragon

A friend asked me to dragonify a pony OC. I decided to make it special and make her a cross between a frost dragon and a fairy dragon. Fairy dragons are exceedingly rare.

In my MLP universe there are hundreds of different breeds of dragons, each belonging to a subtype which dictates their distinguishing ability. I...

Difficult Patient

Baby dragons learn by doing. The first lesson they learn is that physics exist. The second lesson they learn is that while physics can be fun, they often hurt. The third lesson they learn is that the wound disinfectant is never fun.

Garble has his claws full trying to help his little sister.

Birthday Party

During the week of the student exchange, Gallus stayed with Sandbar's family. Having been in Equestria for a while already, Gallus didn't think he could learn much more about the way ponies live. He was wrong. Living in a pony household wasn't the same as observing them for sure!
Sandbar's family's kindness touched him dee...

A Dog's Mother: part 6

Torch has left the chat

Dirty secret

At the end of each day, no matter how busy, Torch made it a point to tell Ember a bedtime story. Ember loved her father's stories, but her favorite one — the one she forced him to tell her over and over, was the story of the vampire dragon. What Ember didn't realize was how close to home the story would hit.

One nigh...

Nap time with mama

Torch's home life was rough. It was in fact so rough, that at the tender age of five he ran away from home. He faced many perils while fending for himself in the wild. At one point he was chased by two rocs, a hydra, a tatzlwurm, a chimera and a manticore all within a span of ten minutes. How he survived this insanity was any...
