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?

Currently in the process of re-writing. Just put it under your read-it-later and check back sometime in the future.

It's been five years now.

Five years since Twilight said goodbye to her friends. Five years since she was last known as the personal student of Celestia, and librarian at Ponyville. Five years since her world changed forever.

It's been five years since the Princess banished the bearers of the Elements of Harmony to different ends of the world, and now she needs their help more than ever.

Much love to NATOstrike for editing this story to readable status.

Twilight and Celestia have been hiding a secret for many years. Can they keep living up to their lies or will somepony catch on? Will Twilight's friends forgive her lies as to who she really is and what her relationship status really is with the Princess, or will they condemn her for lying to them? After all, nopony could ever lie to their friends... right?

(A/N) This is my first Fimfic. Feel free to tell me what you think of it and tell me if I made any errors.

Scootaloo has never talked much about herself.  Nopony knows her family, or has visited her home.  But she has one big secret she's never told anypony... especially Rainbow Dash.

She never expected to see a golden chariot flying over Ponyville. She never expected just how much her life would change. She never expected Twilight Sparkle … and Twilight Sparkle most certainly never expected Pinkie Pie.

Spartans never die, they're just missing in action. This has never been more true for Jorge-052 as, after activating the slipspace drive that was supposed to kill him, he is instead flung into a strange world where war is but a distant memory. Will the aging soldier be able to adapt to this new peaceful planet? Or will his only salvation be found in finding a way back to his own chaotic universe?

(It's my first time, so be gentle)

Growing up is never easy, especially when you're a dragon among ponies and the closest thing you've ever had to a parent is a slightly scatterbrained young unicorn. When tempers boil over, can this makeshift family pull itself back together?

A slightly more realistic take on the "Human in Equestria" story concept.

... For a given value of "realistic."
