Speaking as the thread originator: I don't mind the drift, so long as I can still ask what any of these would be:
- Unlimited Moe Works
- Moe Money, Moe Problems
- Moe Curley and Larry
- Moe Monet
- Super Moe Brothers
- Moe Missile Massacre
- Moe Mau Uprising
- Moe Moe Moe (How Do You Like It?)
- Five Guys Who Are Moe [Now I'm getting obscure]
- Superman and the Moe Men
- Moe Songs About Buildings and Food
And to contribute to the topic at hand:
Pretty Pink Princesses -- Dealing With A Superpowered Daughter Still In The "Cute" Phase
Thanks

* Moe Money, Moe Problems - I believe this is known as "Kodama no Omocha" and/or "Ultimate Girls..."

That's for when you get a Stooge as a Servant.

That's actually a kind of sweet and poignant one about the love and tenderness and transience among souls awaiting reincarnation.
how about "Master of the Lunar Verse"

Gritty steampunk noirish thing about life down in the Great Factories of (insert city here). The protagonist is likely a detective doing jobs for working class blokes.

If it's the "Lunar Verse," shouldn't that be Artemis? Admittedly, Apollo was better known for poetry, but still.
I'm sure Artemis would be offended if anyone thought that just because she liked a bit of outdoors she couldn't do poetry herself, but Apollo was the leader of the Muses, her twin brother, and known for magic not related to animals and pursuing them as well - I figured he was a more likely source for spell-woven epic verse on her behalf. Then again, with how siblings in general and especially the dodekatheon tend to get along, maybe not...

The easy answer here is that it's a fanfic set in the
Sakura Wars universe, about a new Flower Division troop/troupe... but that doesn't seem satisfying for some reason.

Well, here's some help: In order, those flowers mean caution, remembrance, triumph in adversity. Dunno if sickles traditionally mean anything, nor did I look up the meansing of the flowers until afterward, but the fact that they assemble into a vaguely comprehensible message, if rather different than the one the string of words sounds vaguely like when you say them out loud, is another angle to tackle it from.

I'm honestly not sure if that was meant to be a new title, or just a .sig quote (it has the look of song lyrics, especially combined with your last one,) but I'll give it a shot anyway: The heartwarming story of a refugee from one of those endless third-world brushfire border wars, as she overcomes social conditioning and psychological trauma to become an award winning Broadway performer.
Next! Option of three:
Powers of Ten
The Last Duezie

The Last Duezie
Findings in Silver and Gold
That's a trilogy about the fortunes of a Venetian merchant house. Powers of Ten is the first book and describes how they offer a tenacious but futile defense against the machinations of the Coundil of Ten, The Last Duezie ends with the aforementioned child being taken to New World to escape the ones that murdered everyone
else in the family and Findings in Silver and Gold has the Duezie's regaining their power and prestige but this time in the Spanish Court through exploitation of their New World mines.
So, what's
Godendag?
That's the spin-off book, about the dispossessed Dutch noble's son who founded the Huurling Gezelschap van de Godandag (Mercenary Company of the Godendag) who were hired by either side at various points in the third book. Well, I think... all I'm really sure about is

Hm, gonna extend it just a bit - With Fiends Like These, Who Needs Boyfriends? A hentacle invasion is met with a surprisingly warm reception, now the male protagonist and his chums have to step up their game or remain forever dateless.

"Unjustly Enprismed" would probably be about post-series Jadeite escaping. Not sure what else it would be about, but that'd be the obvious starting point for that title.
Just by way of noting: I still haven't got an answer to what "Master of the Flying Electric Chair" would be the title of.
And one further one: "Kitten Chow Main".
Thanks
Luc "Weird" French
Master of the Flying Electric Chair is the story of the youngest son of a luchador family, and his quest to earn the right to their most famous mask by learning the signature move its wearer is famous for. Kitten Chow Mein ... well, it was a darkfic, and uncrossed Ranma, so I didn't bother to read it.
Fond Regards from Antarctica sounds interesting, though.

Fond Regards from Antarctica: Pretty much Exactly What It Says On The Tin - a series of letters written by a (fictional) soldier posted to the McMurdo security detail over winter, sent to his wife and kids back home.
A Hot Rocket and Thirty Pounds of Stardust: A whirlwind ride that begins when the protagonist steals the latter ("Stardust" in this case being a particular variety of highly sought-after drug that can't be grown on inhabitable planets) out from under the noses of the local mafia-equivalent, and makes good their escape by jacking the former as well. The protagonist starts out just trying to cash in the dust without running afoul of the mafia-types (tricky, since they're the ones that do most of the business in it), but inevitably expands to include personal vendettas, secret societies, and skulduggery of all types, as the protagonist and whatever random followers they pick up jump out of a variety of frying pans into a multitude of fires.

The Night The Guard Was Sleeping
I know this one. It's a comedic story following all the shenanigans that go on in a single night in Canterlot Palace, all of which must pass through a door ostensibly guarded by the titular guardspony. It's just unbelievable how all these plots and pranks interact, one of the best pieces of FiM fanfiction I've ever seen.
