Suggest a Ponyfic Roundup theme!

This idea will probably fall flat on its face for one of three reasons:
1) Nobody actually cares what I write about;
2) People will suggest stuff that's illogical, illegal and/or impossible;
3) Both.
But hey. I didn't get where I am today by being sensible. You may wish to reflect on that for a moment.

So... what would you like to see as the theme of a future Ponyfic Roundup? Characters, settings, genres, authors, you name it. The only real rules are that the theme cannot be one that requires most or all of the fics I review to be Mature-rated, and that I will ignore anything that requires me to read million-word epics.

Let's have those ideas! :)

    The Rainbow Dash Roundup was a good idea, you should do more character-themed ones. But, like, start with background characters, ponies who don't get a lot of stories, like, I dunno, Lightning Dust or Maud. :B

    And of course, you should do a Present Perfect Roundup. :V

      Well, a certain someone has been agitating for a Carrot Top roundup... :P

      And of course. But only when I can do justice to such an extraordinary task. :D

      I think that such post would require The Beards of Harmony to be complete. Just saying.

    *Cracks fingers* RIGHT. Control at last!

    Spoons. All the fics in your next roundup will contain spoons.

    But no, seriously. It think a good target would be at least oen for each of the mane 6. After that you can branch into other characters or themes.

      There's a reason the first word in my header is "Suggest". ;)

      I'm not going to make every edition a themed one in any case, since there are some fics that I want to get to that don't fall into easy categories. But it does look like pony-based editions are the most popular choice at the moment.

      Also, I reviewed Lament of a Spoon in PR 33, so don't get clever with me. ;D

    Welp, if spoons are the thing, I'll go ahead and suggest Sporkle and .

      Sporks? Sporks? You'll be telling me to include fish slices next! As for Oh, Spoony... hmm. Maybe. One day.

      Sporks are spoon-ish! They count! Kinda.
