When a starship is launched, there are a huge number of hoops for it to jump through to be cleared for launch- to be allowed to come even close to seeing the light of day.

Then one ship that came up short of all those hoops was granted an exception because of how unique it was- there likely wasn't any set of hoops it could hop through, simply because it wouldn't fit. It was too large.

Unfortunately, while it launched successfully, its builder- and owner- was already dead.

So, with nobody left with a claim to it, it fell into the ownership of the Navy- under whose authority it launched. And what is the Navy going to do with a starliner of this size?

Personnel movements, of course! If anyone wants a ride to fringe worlds at the warfront, or back from them, and doesn't mind becoming a cute magical pony for the rest of their lives, she can get them home and back three times over in the same time that even the fastest other ship would require just to get them home the first time.

Updates on Thursdays, when ready. Why didn't I have this note in here before...?

Celestia has an important duty, raising and lowering the sun, what most ponies don't know however, is that the sun wants to rise and that Celestia didn't get her cutie mark by lowering the sun with magic...

She got it by being more stubborn.

Twilight really should be more careful when spellcasting as a miscast spell results in her being turned into a big living plush of herself. Now all she has to do is track down Rarity. How hard could that be?
-Takes place in season two-

A fluff piece with lots of huggable Twilight.

Human values are very important! Maybe even more important than the opinions of Hanna, creator of the world's first superintelligent AI.

This story is a non-canon Friendship Is Optimal (FiO) side story.

Prereader Credit:

Several months ago Bicyclette was kind enough to preread a draft, and over the time since then I've tried to apply Bike's feedback...about as far as the story seemed to permit. The story's remaining faults are my own doing.

You and a group of seven friends who live together and love the show My Little Pony, Friendship is Magic, have contracted a strange infection after purchasing a so-called 'cursed' box set of the MLP series, however, your transformation seems to be slightly more, chaotic than that of your friends.

If this isn't your kinda story, then you don't have to read it, but please don't insult my ideas, constructive criticism is allowed though.

I was surfing the web and found a series of drawings by an artist called TF-Sential on Twitter, they are about an infection that changes people into characters from MLP, inspired by the recent virus going around that I shall not name. I decided that it would be fun to put my own spin on it, taking away the connection to the real-life virus and making it more magically inclined.

Imagine being one of the most powerful and most acclaimed martial organisations in the known world. Imagine knowing that five hundred people like you turned an army of twenty six thousand, taking only a few losses and destroying the enemy utterly.

Imagine going each day to the God who gave you such a privilege, and swearing to serve Him anew each day. Imagine knowing that each day, you are living the life you have been called to.

Imagine knowing that by fell treachery, torture, and lies, your order was now under threat by those whom it had aided in the past, and that now you were hunted for that help.

This is the tale of Johann von Saxony, and the struggle that this places on his life.

UPDATE:

Due to an unfortunate lack of time and attention, this story has been placed on hiatus. I cannot currently devote the time required to rewrite it and continue it as it deserves. I will continue it, have no fear - but not now.

UPDATE UPDATE:

Due to being asked multiple times to update it and in the end flipping a coin, I have recommenced the continuation of the story. The end will be reached sooooonishly. (like about 100 000 words or so)

Sweetie Belle has the mind of a young filly, and like all youngsters, they often prioritize fun with friends over more important things. Normally, this isn't an issue. However, after a fun day out with her two best friends lasts longer than expected, the little unicorn's good mood is interrupted by a Low Battery Alert. Now the robotic filly must rush to get home and plug herself in before her battery hits 0%.

Betazed, a lavish and beautiful world. Filled with singing waterfalls, lush fields, vibrant jungles, home to billions of people. All of that beauty, culture and history, and it could all come to an end.

Diplomacy is an endless game of chess. Faced with imminent destruction, the flagship of the federation has been summoned, but can this ship and its crew save the planet? Or will the home world of Deanna Troi be lost forever? With time running out, Picard may need to take chances, risks, and make a Knights Gambit.
