    Nopony ever said the friendship between Fluttershy and Discord would be an easy one. The difference in their life expectancies doesn’t help, but that’s a problem Discord can fix with a snap of the talons—that is, until Fluttershy finds out. Discord isn’t one to give up easily, though. He’ll do anything to keep his one and only friend. Anything.

    Inspired by the image by C-Puff.

    Congratulations, Twilight. With Celestia and Luna on their constitutionally mandated vacation, you're in charge of Equestria. The position of Regent is an honored and hallowed one. But maybe it's a bit early to congratulate you. After all, whether it's a nobility jealous of your ascension, or a military unhappy with Celestia's decisions; one thing's certain: your reign will be anything but peaceful.

    Sequel to Ascend

    Sequel to My Little Alicorn and Bringing Up Blueblood.

    It has been almost a year since Luna first uncovered the Arcanus E Draconus and used its dark powers to turn her sister into a filly. Since then, she has become more popular than ever, to the point where the Filly Scouts have invited her to officiate their Jamboree, which is being held in Ponyville this year. At the same time, Celestia wishes to reach closure with the infernal tome, as well as escape from her own growing concerns over her future in Equestria.

    Little does Luna know that another force is in Ponyville, looking for revenge. And it might just settle for vengeance by proximity...

    Celestia decides that Big Mac's barn is an excellent place to sneak off to, to take naps on her days off.

    Big Mac decides that Celestia is a welcome guest.

    Neither Princess nor farmer ever speak to one another, but the silence sings between them.

    Inspired by her many trips through the Everfree Forest, Twilight gets an idea for a book. With a little help from her friends, however, what began as a single passage quickly evolves into an entire universe, with the Mane 6 as its Goddesses.

    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?

    (NO THIS IS NOT AN ADVENTURE!  Wandering around the Everfree isn't an adventure.)

    (Love interest is not revealed in any of the current chapters 1-8.  So don't freak out when you don't see it.)

    A human in Equestria story? Good lord, how does it feel to be so creative and original? I mean, there's no way that that sort of thing has been done before, right? Well anyway...where was I? Oh yes, I have always heard about the TV show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but good gravy I would never watch the darned thing! What am I, five? *mumbles angrily* However, that didn't stop...something from transporting me into the world of the show so here I am...in Equestria...trying to get home...this is gonna be interesting.

    *Author's note* I have never read any HIE stories (except for the Last Brony one) but this is just me trying my hand at one. Any similarities between this story and other HIE stories are purely coincidental.

    Special thanks to GuyFace, Jack Kellar, Storm Shaker, Spiffy McSquee, and Goober Trooper for helping me with this one!

    Now with a sequel, Wanderings of a Non-Brony and two spin-offs, The Breaking of a Non-Brony and TD's Little Rarity. The latter is a sort of My Little Dashie parody.
