On our last legs, clinging to any remaining happiness by the skin of our teeth, to see light in the darkness is but a dream, unattainable. Those who understand that pain find kindred spirits among those who share it, and irreplaceable gifts among those who would save them.

Rated "Everyone" because EVERYONE needs a little of PinxiePie... Enjoy!

Spike finally decides to reveal his feelings for the pony he cares about, and nothing could possibly be better.

This isn't exactly full of a huge amount of conflict, it's mostly a sappy lovey dovey romance story for one of the cutest ships I've ever seen, because I'm a big sap and sucker.

Also if you're looking for the more... "spicy" scenes. They can be located here.

Cover art is My Little Spikey Wikey by Alexusprime, thanks to Deep Pond for pointing that out.

After her face and body are permanently scarred, Rarity seals herself off in her room with the lights off and drapes drawn, too disgusted by her own appearance to be seen. The only comfort she has comes in the form of daily visits from Spike, though she keeps the room dark to hide her deformities from the baby dragon. Can he convince her that she has nothing to fear; that her beauty is not limited to what she looks like?

In which in an odd land, one particular pony becomes many things for a lost one.

Twilight realizes Spike might be neglecting his childhood when she sees how hard the dragon is working to help her around the library, so she decides to send him to school to mingle with ponies his own age. Despite his intellect and maturity, Spike finds himself with unfamiliar ponies, in an even more unfamiliar environment. Can Spike learn what it means to be a child before the fillies and colts drive him insane?

Please Read: I did not mean to take credit for using Mallajong1's title for the "Spike's" series. The similarity was purely coincidental. Sorry for any confusion caused.

Terrence found himself lost in a sea of solitude while living his dream. Until a chance opportunity forces itself upon him. Now he finds himself in Equestria, where the horses and ponies he grew up raising are now sentient and find him to be... rather odd. Except one. And she finds him to be her one chance at happiness.

Author: This is my first fic EVER, so yeah.
Props go to tallestbrony, he helped me through all this.

Walking with the paws of an ancient predator, a young man finds himself in a strange world. A world where horses are the dominant species, and he’s a very rare and dangerous animal. How will a speechless man turned wolf deal with society? How will he approach ponies? Would he even want to bother speaking to them?

(Love interest is not revealed in any of the current chapters. So don't freak out when you don't see it. I'm also focusing on a very realistic sense of love. This will be a later part of the story when romance becomes truly relevant. Point out ALL errors to me when you see them, even the ones that have been pointed out already, and I'll see what I can do.)

Many millennia ago, Pokemon used to roam the world of Equestria freely. Then, one day, they simply vanished... One day, a crazed stallion decided to mess with something that should have been left alone. With Pokemon suddenly appearing in Equestria once more, how will Equestria cope with change, especially when the Pokemon appear to be more than what the myths said?

(Formerly known as "Faraway World of Our Dreams".)

This idea came to mind when I saw all of the Human-turned Pokemon in Equestria fics, and I thought, “Hey, maybe I can make a unique spin on it!” So that’s how this came to be. Hopefully, aside from a random twist here and there, you’ll enjoy a (relatively) realistic take on HiE as Pokemon. Will update sporadically, whenever I get ideas and have time to write.

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Pokemon, nor do I own My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. They are owned by Nintendo and Hasbro respectively. I claim no credit, ownership, etc, and ask that you support the official shows.

Ever since the events of his birthday, Spike has feared and suppressed his species' natural behavior. However, when one chains the beast too long, natural tendencies tend to break loose. Spike, along with his friends, must discover a way for Spike to control his natural behavior and continue to live alongside the ones he loves. But is this possible?

Which is more powerful: nature or nurture?

Imprisoned in the tunnels beneath Canterlot, she withers away in hunger and despair. In the castle above, curiosity leads him to a door that he is forbidden to open. When they finally meet, it is just the opportunity she has waited for. Mislead by a child's trusting innocence, Spike unknowingly stumbles into the clutches of Equestria's greatest foe. And once you embrace the darkness, the darkness never lets you go...
