It started when ponies started going missing. It was small towns and villages that reported them first.

After an attack on Manehattan of seemingly unknown origins, The Regal Sisters begin talks of reviving an ancient order meant to defend Equestria and the rest of the known world from threats deemed 'other worldly'.

Much to her dismay, Twilight is chosen to lead Equestria's first—and last—line of defense.

I figured I could put my ongoing misadventures in X-COM and turn them into a fic of some kind.

Kinda toyed with this idea for a bit until I was completely comfortable with it. Hope you like it! Please leave any feedback in the comments!

All attempts at a diplomatic resolution come to naught, Princess Celestia, commander of the army of the Solar Empire, faces Princess Luna, leader of the New Lunar Republic forces, across the field of their final battle. Here and now, a victor will be determined, and their dispute resolved, by the diplomacy of blood and steel.

What could a defeat mean for the sun princess, and where will she go from here?

I bet every fan of MLP: FiM has thought about what it would be like to live in Equestria at least once. After a freak cosmic coincidence one fan is now stuck in Equestria before the Pilot, cut off from the life he knew. Is he better off? Are the ponies? I suppose only time will tell.

Featured! Thank you so much for taking the time to read! I'm quite sure you will all enjoy where this story goes!

This story is a sequel to Things Are Rarely as They Seem

Much has changed, both figuratively and literally, since the changeling Habeas Brittle and the pony Prunus Persica saw past their differences and found something truly dear in one another. But as some time goes by and their affinity for the other reaches its apex, they find the unexpected and unpredictable has not yet abandoned their worries.

Both turn their gazes toward the unforeseeable future, tailed by dogged fear and angst, yet with hope still warm in their minds and hearts. And as fate would have it, they aren't the only ones who are discovering terrible troubles in dire need of being overcome.

Princess Twilight Sparkle listened to the lectures of her senior princesses and has lived the life of Canterlot's high society since the day she ascended as a young filly. Unfortunately, she skipped Cadence's lessons on love.

Specifically, how to confess to the mare of her dreams when she so happened to be her stunningly beautiful mare-in-waiting.

Twilight suspects someone has been stealing secrets.

Being Twilight, she implements a new filing system to protect her precious information.

Celestia was having a bad week. Discord had came back from his stone prison and now her student almost went crazy. All she wants is some peace. Too bad an interdimensional time magister decided to permanently visit as well.

Oh, and that magister? He's been turned into an alicorn. And there's also another interdemensional intruder that happens to be nearby and the two hate each other. There goes the neighborhood.

This is a collab story, with its partner story being written by the awesome Silvak
