Twilight Sparkle. Alicorn princess, scholar, explorer (kinda). While she may not move the sun or the moon, she's powerful in her own right. However, she hasn't quite mastered inter-dimensional travel.
Mindcrack. Friends; family even. Masters of their world, these Crafters can do almost anything. While exceptional individually (mostly), a group of them can overcome anything they encounter. Now, if only they can guide a poor, lost alicorn home.
Disclaimers:
I have nothing to do with the Mindcrack server.
I have nothing to do with MLP.
I own nothing.
I have no regrets.
Chapters (6)
Good story so far keep it up.

Thanks! I most definitely will. In fact, chapter 2 is almost ready to be put up.
Hopefully my decision as to which Crafters to include doesn't cause much controversy. I also need to decide who to pair them up with (1 Crafter per pony). I've got Etho with Twilight, but the rest... well, it'll be tough.
You really should of chose a better title. "My little X friendship is X" isn't exactly a very appealing title.
I agree with TheaterCritic.
Maybe something like:
Mindcracked
Or some similar play on words.

Rainbow Dash is excited to see what happens in this!
I am grinning like an idiot. I'd like to see where this goes.
Etho with Twilight
Zisteau with Rainbow Dash
Guude with Rarity
Beef with Applejack
BTC with Fluttershy
Pauseunpause with Pinkie!
...
I just realized that this comment could be taken really, really out of context.
2916887
Yeah, I know. This was my first idea for a title. I will change it before I submit it to any groups.
2916945
Ooh, that's a good one! I'll wait a day to see if anyone else has other ideas, but that's better than what I have now.
My god. I suppose it was inevitable, given how popular the Mindcrack group is.
But I never thought it would actually happen.
2919369 It happpened. No ifs, ands, or butts about it.
And so it was coded, so it must be. All praise Jeb.
2917359 Pausie Pie!
Just gotta place this here... now... HELLS BLAZES!
For those of you who didn't see this on my blog, I seriously lost track of the Mindcrack server and the changes that have been going on in it. Therefore, I have cancelled this fic until I can give it a total re-write. I'm keeping chapter 1 up until then, but the rest have been deleted. I'm starting fresh with it, keeping only the first sentence. I'm not making any promises, though. It may stay like this for quite a while.
I saw this scrolling through and immediately went "...WHAAAAT?!
"
Suffice it to say, it was unexpected.

I only request that there be PSJ (paulsoaresjr) and the B-Team involved.
PSJ never gets alot of love. I'd say he would go well with AJ if you ask me. Just sayin'.
*sighs*
Why do I do this to myself, again?
Eh, well, this chapter was updated. Like I said months ago, I'm completely redoing this fanfic. I'm still brainstorming important plot details, but I'm not even sure I'll be able to finish this. Either way, I'm moving this fic back to "Incomplete" status for the time being.
The rewrite looks great!
This new story shows promise, though I do kind of wish we could have seen each Mindcracker's response to the new arrival. Oh well, I'm sure you have something good planned.
Shoving everyone in at the first opportunity was definitely a mistake last iteration. The journey to the Nether portal would let Twilight and Paul bond.
never heard of mindcrack
You mean the Potato on a Stick symbol?
4548211 Its a group of Minecraft LPers, who all play on the Mindcrack server. If you watch minecraft videos, you may have heard of Sethbling, Vechs and Etho, who are all Mindcrackers. Apart from that Im not sure what else to say.
4548245 Thanks, TO YOUTUBE!
4548253 No Problem, also if its more your thing, they also play on a Mindcrack Modded server as well.
EDIT; though they are doing a two team factions thing to keep it interesting
*uploads chapter*
*goes to sleep*
*wakes up*
...Wow. I guess people still enjoy my writing, slow as it may be. Yeah, Mindcrack is a server full of awesome youtubers who are all much more creative than I am, and much more skilled, too. I didn't even list all of them in chapter 2.
As for the modded server, well, I've been watching that closely. Last iteration of this story I joked about a sequel starring the CMC. That idea was a wash, but, well...
Ok... I'm sure somebody is going to wonder about the new cover image. In short, I was bored and suddenly got inspired to open up Illustrator and draw something. That is the result. I spent about four hours on it. Don't bash it to hard, it's my first time making my own image outside of a college class.
I know I missed a lot of tiny details on Twilight, such as the line in her ear, but at a certain point I was like, "Oh, wait a second, I need to sleep!" That was about 3:00 AM. I also wanted to add other Crafters into the picture, but halfway through drawing in Vechs, I checked the FimFiction guidelines on image uploading. It scales the cover image down to 250 pixels by 400 pixels, and that gave me a choice: omit the others, or have everybody be really tiny. You can see which one I chose.
I tried to emphasize the fact that Twilight came from a different world. If you look closely, you might be able to tell that she has a stroke effect applied (lines on the outside of the shapes), while Aureylian doesn't. Just a neat effect, in my opinion.
As a long time watcher of Guude, Bdubs, Etho, and many others, this has caught my attention. I will read it while work is slow!
Ooh, maybe Twilight will end up on team Adoribolical!
P.S. The cover image is great
4601456 It'd be interesting then to see how Vechs would react to Twilight since he is a brony and has made references to MLP in some of his videos.
4602408
In this story, MLP does not exist. However, Vechs will still be giddy as a schoolgirl to see a purple pony. Even more so when he finds that... well, that would spoil the ending, so I'll not put that here. It will have something to do with his base, though.
I laughed at Adlington beefing out. Good show.
I love the cover art, BTW.
Love this! You better finish this, it seems so intresting!
4780816 I am going to finish it eventually. One more chapter to go.
After that, I think I'm going to wait for a new season of the Crackpack. The sequel is tentatively titled "Mindcracked 2: The Princess Wars".
When I first searched mindcrack nothing showed up then it's first when I search vechs when first finding out he's a brony.
You magnificent bastard. I fav just on the grounds that Paul plays a large role, I love that guy. Glad to see this thing alive! But I do have some criticisms.
You should take a little more time to describe things, details and whatnot. I believe PSJ's dialogue was a bit flat. I think she should have been more jovial. But I have to point out; why did PSJ throw his weapons to show he was friendly if he thought Twilight was just a mob? Also, he would probably be excited upon discovery of a new mob species with him saying, "What's this?", "It can fly?!" or at least saying hello first. Also Ferris is his Mule, not a donkey, just sayin'. I feel like the meeting in the town hall was unnecessary. It felt a tad lifeless and like it was just there to show off the rest of the Mindcrackers (and have Aurealiyan see Twilight if I had to guess). I think that this story should have less emphasis on Mindcrack as a whole and more emphasis on Paul being Twilight's guide through the server and trying to get her home (like say if the portal closed behind Twilight and PSJ wanted to save her from the wipe and get her home). The story would probably be better off for it, especially for the description I'd assume.
And that's just my two cents. At any rate I'm looking forward to the probable encounter with seemingly malicious rascal with a heart of gold: Vechs. Especially since he looks up to Paul almost like a father figure.

Thank you for the feedback. Now, as much as I hate to say it, here goes. The next chapter, while taking forever to come out, still feels a bit... forced to me. It doesn't really address any of the concerns you have (flat dialogue, lifeless meeting in the town hall, Vechs...) and really only exists to finish the story off and set up for a possible sequel. It's one of those I want to keep working on, but it will ever be as good as I envisioned. Really, I had plans for this story, but between the wipe, the eventual sequel, and school starting up, they all kinda got dropped.
Ugh, I hate my mind sometimes. Fast enough to think of all these cool ideas, but unable to put them to paper well in any good amount of time.
Oooooo
Moar.

There will be a sequel eventually. It will feature Princess Celestia and Princess Luna in the Crack Pack world, Mindcrack's modded server. I'm playing the pack now to get ideas about what they will do.
Trollestia lives
Also, I kinda want to actually recreate this in minecraft
Has so much potential
