Hands: The Stars Revolt! Part 1 · 11:48pm Nov 29th, 2019
Here is a very stupid omake for if Shepherd had arrived and settled into Ponyville even before Twilight came...
The party for the Summer Sun Celebration was just too damn loud. Shepherd was trying to sleep, damnit! He'd had a long day of getting shit together and he just wanted some sleep! Not that he didn't like Pinkie's parties: He loved them! She was one of the kindest ponies and first to accept him, the strange alien, into their community. But he really needed shut eye.
Well, maybe if he was part of the celebration, he'd feel less like shit. So he got up and walked to the town hall, hoping to improve his spirits.
Shepherd: *yawns* "Maybe with enough coffee I'll brighten up, I dunno..." He entered, just as everything went quiet. "... Sound system go on the fritz again?"
Nightmare Moon: "BWAHAHAHAHAHA! THE NIGHT SHALL LAST FOREVERRRR!"
Shepherd: "... I guess I missed the part about it being open mike night. Or a cosplay contest." *Feeling self conscious, he cheers* "Uh, you go! Great performance! And costume! Never seen anything like it!"
Nightmare Moon is on him in an instant, glaring.
Nightmare Moon: "Do you dare mock me, you hairless ape?!"
Shepherd: *blinks* "Sooo... Audience participation? Should I act scared? Ahh, oh no, she's... She's got me. That okay?"
Nightmare Moon: "We'll see how long your attitude lasts when the SUN IS GONE AND MY NIGHT REIGNS SUPREME!"
Shepherd: "GAH! Jesus Lady! It's called volume control!" *He grabs her horn, making everypony (including her) gasp) "Look, I'm sure you're doing a great job but I'm just not into this. You're going to have to choose another volunteer from the audience, okay?"
Nightmare Moon: "You-How dare you-?!"
Shepherd: "Woah woah, chill, chill..." *Scritches her behind her ear, making her moan and blush* "There you go. See? Sorry if I broke your rhythm."
Fluttershy: "SHEPHERD GET AWAY FROM HER!"
Shepherd: "Oh God, I really have ruined things? I'm sorry guys, I didn't know-"
Applejack: "No! She's Nightmare Moon!"
Shepherd: "And that means...?"
Twilight: "She's an evil alicorn princess who wants to plunge the world into eternal night and destroy the planet!"
Shepherd: "... Ah." *He is still scritching her behind her ears* "Ahhh..." *He smiles nervously at the alicorn* "Ahhhhh... I... I see... Ahem. Listen, your majesty, I'm new here and I don't really understand the politics involved. So you'll have to forgive me if I crossed any line, if I insulted you or-"
Nightmare Moon: "Mmmm... Yessss... You will do."
Shepherd: "Do? Do for what?"
Nightmare Moon: "As my consort. I will need one for ruling the world and you will do! TO MY CASTLE, MY NEW CONCUBINE!"
Shepherd is grabbed by tentacles formed by her mane, and he proceeds to panic.
Shepherd: "I NEED AN ADULT! I NEED AN ADULLLLLLLTTTTTTT!"
Nightmare Moon: "I'm over 1000 years old, I'm more adult than anypony here!"
This is great. I need to be able to Favorite and thumbs-up this stuff.
And that's how Fluttershy led the charge to the Castle of the Two Sisters.
This just makes me smile, for some reason.
“The ear-scritches shall last FOREVER!”
“What have I got myself into now?”

Haha, that’s a good one
But Shepard, she is an adult. 😈
That was funny i laughed very hard right at the end
Oh, man, that last line is killing me! If there was a human to provide ear skritches back when Luna was on the verge of becoming Night Mare Moon, would she have transformed?
I smell…
I smell…
I smell…
I smell…
… possible Tangent/AU!

IIRC, Bendy and probably others wrote such a scenario.
See I was gonna make the obligatory joke, but Spiritus Arcane and Hotel_Chicken beat me to it.
