Things are going pretty well at the Ponyville Library! Princess Celestia is even stopping by for tea this afternoon, which certainly isn't a kind of exam, definitely not requiring frantic preparation.

Even better, a long-backordered book has finally arrived. But as Twilight and her friends are about to discover, this is no ordinary book. Because while reading may be for everypony, certain stories are not for the faint of heart.

(This is a rework of a previously-cancelled, never-finished story of mine. Please note that detailed knowledge of Fallout/Fo:E is not required to enjoy this version.)

I was living a comfortable life. Had a loving wife and son, money was absolutely no issue, everything was swell.

Next thing I know, I'm hearing voices, I can't move, I can't talk, I can't even breathe. Yet, I know I'm alive, though I don't entirely feel like myself anymore.

Then I end up being the last of survivor of my new race.

I'm not even human anymore...

This story was a collaboration with eemoo1o. Feel free to check them out and read their stories, they really deserve more attention.

Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force is thrust into the Everfree Forest by some unseen force. Will he be able to get along with the ponies as he tries to find a way home? Who cares? This is a one shot where he only interacts with Pinkie Pie.

Teleportation. It is the best possible way to travel... As long as you don't think about it too much. As long as you don't ask where Twilight goes in that split second when she's neither here nor there.

The sound I listened to as I wrote it, available to you in order to give you the option of having the same atmosphere.

No relation to the other story with the same name, just a coincidence of both picking the same excellent title. I was unaware that the other one existed.

This story is a sequel to A Taste of Stardom

A new normal brings new problems. Chrysalis has a job - a good, well-paying job she actually enjoys - and one of the conditions for keeping that job is the mandatory yearly physical. Well, that should be no problem for the Queen of the Changelings... right?

(Reading 'Taste of Stardom' first is highly recommended.)

After his numerous failed plans to conquer planet earth, Zim has decided to take a new approach, as he has moved his HQ to Canterlot city, after his nemesis, the foolish Dib membrane, exposed his existence to the CIA. Well it was a trick made by Dib to try and scare Zim waya forever, but still. And as he arrives in Canterlot, he soon discovers the magic the rainbooms possess, and as an Irken Invader, he seeks to exploit it for the empire, and use it to conquer earth, and potentially, BEYOND!

Note: It may say violence and profanity, but the violence is well, cartoon violence, and the profanity is very miniscule, but hey, better safe than sorry.

"To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be."
- Big Brain Engineer Man

Grand Admiral Jack Roberts, leader and commander of Redwood Industries, and his faithful crew, have been assigned to the special operations ship Tigris, as they have warped into an uncharted system after detecting an unknown signal and are ready to investigate, until they are lured into an ambush by remnant forces of the Green Drones. After barely fighting off their aggressors, the captain orders an emergency landing, which as with all of Jack's adventures, expectedly devolves into a crash landing, leaving the crew stranded.

Meanwhile, Aaron and his crew of engineers turned freelance explorers have come to investigate the signal as well, falling to the same trick and being ambushed, only to be saved by Captain Shack and his comrades W4stedspace and Morphologis, having made a desperate escape from the drone infested Planet Bob, only to find this new world, and soon learn they were followed.

Soon, every skilled and talented engineer team in the galaxy is flocking to Equestria for the signal, and as all the teams of space engineers are left stranded, they will encounter the planet's strange local lifeforms, forge alliances, work together to stop a looming danger, and save not just Equestria, but the entire galaxy!

Note: I do not own Space Engineers or My Little Pony. Captain Jack, LastStandGamers, and all the other space engineers youtubers I bring in here have their own youtube channels here. Also, this takes place after the events of Colony Salvage and before Starship Lost.

This story is a sequel to My Little Alicorn

After the events of "My Little Alicorn," everything seemed to be back to normal...except for one pony. Prince Blueblood is now trapped as a colt, his title, possessions and birthright stripped for his crimes. Before Princess Celestia will return him to normal, however, he must prove himself by attending Magic Kindergarten. Even worse, his current situation has attracted the vengeful gaze of two ponies he has offended in the past: the Captain of the Royal Guard and the Moon Princess.

Will Blueblood rise above his past self and emerge a better pony? Or will he sink back into his old depravity, and be stuck a colt for the long term?

Note: This is a sequel to "My Little Alicorn," so you might want to check that out first.
