“Who could ever love a beast?”

When Spike is rejected by the love of his life because he is a dragon, he’s willing to do whatever it takes to change that. So when a pony of questionable motives offers to change him into a stallion, Spike is more than willing to shake on it. However, there was one small detail that Spike overlooked: He must first find love as a monster; a beast of a dragon, within a year or he will be stuck like this forever… A beautiful Sparity based on the greatest love story ever told, Rarity and Spike learn that what they thought was beauty was only skin deep, and that true beauty lies from within.

Welcome to the new Equestria, Twilight Sparkle. See your friends at each other's throats? You have to choose between them now, to stop the heartache of war with decisive victory. For the nation lies bleeding, its harmony shattered into a million pieces. Black and white and right and wrong have blurred together.

You must choose wisely, or all shall die.

On a cloudy day, four friends find refuge at Rarity's Boutique over a barrel of cider. But when Twilight Sparkle flies home from Canterlot to see her friends early, can she understand what's really going on?

During the entrance exam to the School for talented Unicorns, Twilight completely loses control of her powers. Celestia tries to calm her down in vain, and finally in desperation she uses a shrinking spell on filly Twilight to reduce the damage caused by her power surge.

After the exam, Celestia takes the tiny Twilight as her personal student, and teaches her how to control her magic while she remains tiny, so that her further power surges will not accidentally hurt anypony.

After years of hard training Twilight finally learns how to fully control her powers, but when Celestia offers to turn Twilight back to her original size, Twilight refuses. "When you are tiny, every small task is like a big adventure, making you to push forward and learn." Celestia is impressed by Twilight's progress in her study and the hard work she'd done so far, so she lets her keep her tiny size. However, things start to get more complicated when Nightmare Moon's arrival is closing by.

Will tiny Twilight be able to make friends and save Luna, and how will the others react to the tiny adventurous unicorn?

SF (canon species only; no humans) Ponies were magically and genetically engineered to be the perfect servitor race. They are powerful, adaptable, intelligent and completely under the control of their creators. A laboratory accident frees one such pony from her mental chains, but how can one mare save herself and the rest of her kind if she doesn't even know she's a slave?

This is not the Equestria you know and these are not your little ponies... not yet, anyway.

Twilight Sparkle has grown apart from her closest friends since she became a princess and moved to Canterlot; however, when she tries to fix things, she finds herself in a mess much worse than she ever could have imagined.

Silver Quill's childhood crush was a simple, fleeting thing, although one that he didn't really understand. But when he finally meets the pony that interested him so many years ago, his normally calm and organized mind is thrown for a loop. Now he has to get his feelings under control and not make a complete fool of himself while trying his hardest to get rid of this cursed writers block that got him here in the first place. Easier said than done.
