THIS STORY HAS BEEN CANCELLED

47 years ago, the world as we know it changed. On December 21st of 2012, the magical land of Equestria appeared on Earth and forever altered how we would view the world, the universe, and each other. It is now 2059 AD, or 47 AC (After Contact) and we are still feeling the effects of Equestria's presence.

Wishing to gain insight from both humans, her own subjects, and even Equestrians who were born within human nations, Princess Celestia tasks a young Pegasus from New York with a task. To collect and tell the tales of those who have lived through all the changes that have taken place, through all the trials and tribulations the last few decades have had to offer.

These tales come from all kinds, from the first human to set foot in Equestria to the very authors of the book itself. They are tales of joy, of sadness, of wonder and curiosity and of ignorance and hate. They cross the full spectrum of human and equestrian emotion to form something beautiful and wonderous.

And at the very core, one of the very things that has defined this century, for both mankind and ponykind:

The Conversion Bureaus.

Come with us as we forge the story of this Strange New World.


-Hey all, we're open to people willing to contribute. I wanted this to be a collab project anyways, and to really make this good we'll need anyone whose willing to take the time and effort to join us. Perhaps hopefully someday entire chapters will even be written by a single author!
Anywho, if you want to contribute, just send me a PM including how you would like to contribute. This story is written in several formats, as you'll see upon reading, so even if you don't feel like writing a chapter, you can still contribute. Fair warning though, this is a reconstruction of TCB, not a regular TCB or a deconstruction fic. As long as you remember that when your contributing, things should be fine.

Right now, I'd be greatly and deeply thankful for anyone who would be able to provide decent coverart. If your willing to do such, just send me or one of the co-authors or advisors a PM.

Grammar has never been one of my strong suits. And occasionally spelling :p

1973539
No no no, he just forgot what the Bureau brought with it :rainbowwild:

Also, really interested to read it, will see about giving it a look tomorrow or Saturday

Yay:yay:
I advise a person....oh wait...my adviser skills are not seen yet....:fluttershyouch:

Oh well. Very good, not a full blown hate on humanity nor an insane pony conquest!

I'm pretty sure the Allure of the Seas was somewhere in the western Caribbean on that day.

The idea is that it starts out being medical, and changes to an extent as time passes. It won't solely be for medical purposes further down the line. Don't worry, I have plans to explain things as best as is humanly and equinely possible.

1973683
Eh, I was trying to hunt down the name of an actual cruise liner, and that's one of the ones that jumped out at me. In hindsight, probably just coming up with one might have been better, but eh, its not that important. to me anyways, it may be important to you readers :p :)

for your pic in the name of kane

Other species get added in later as options for conversion. It starts out initially as equestrians, and then later the Griffons are added in. No final decision has been made on the other races.
1973788
Hmm?

1973805
I'm half asleep, sue me :ajsleepy:

However, for the joke, you deserve a :moustache:

I felt something soft hit me in the face as I slowly dragged myself from unconsciousness. Groggily, I opened my eyes to see that the object in question was my roommates pillow, and I groaned as I tossed it in the general direction of Tim’s voice. The sound of an ‘oomph’ put a tired smile on my face as I slipped out of my bed.

- *roommate's

“Nothing, just thinking about stuff.” I answered vaguely, playing with the spoon a bit as I gazed down at my breakfast.

- *,

“Ah, you’re worried about that book thing.” Tim said, swiping a quick bite of toast before going on, “Why don’t you just refuse the job if its bothering you so much?” Tim asked while ripping off a piece of bacon, to which I shook my head.

- *it's

Sorry for being so anal, but these things now stick out to me quite readily, so I feel obligated to point them out.

Now, as for the story itself.

Eric: “Nah, none of my kids have converted. Do have one who’s a Celestial though.

- You realize that was a racist slur against the Chinese back in the 1800's right? Though now I'm really curious about the family dynamics.

I'm intrigued, the balancing is nice.

1973695 1973737 Man, I wish I had commentators like you Zed, light a fire under me to motivate explanations, point out things that I should cover early on.

Keep it up this is really good

I like it; it's very similar to Widening the Lens with a science fiction twist.

Are there transhumans in this fic?

1973969
Define trans-humans, and I may be able to answer this.
1973958
Getting ready to fix those.

Regarding the term Celestial, no I did not know that. In this it's used as a term for those who follow a Religious group based around worship of harmony and the Sisters.

If there's one thing I've learned about the Anti-TCB group, its that they'll pick apart any weak points in a story so as to make said story better. And that's something I appreciate.

I seem to recall seeing this story chapter before. Is this a revised version?

So this isn't a fic that rips into Celestia and makes her a evil ruthless tyrant hell bent of the destruction of humanity?

Innnnnnnteresting...
A promising start, if a little defensive sounding in the description. I must say, the fact that Guardian Gryphon is helping is what made me read the first chapter.
You've dropped a lot of hints as to your setting, and I'll add it to my favorites to see how you explore that setting.

1974541
I put it up when it was halfway finished in both groups forums a while ago to see if anyone was interested in helping with it. This is the finished chapter.
1974756
Eeenope! It also doesn't make humans out to be horrible monsters either.
1975620
He provided a little bit of help, and I look forward to what he may suggest in later chapters. I think I'm going to have to set up chapter three or four to contain the first Griffon interview so he can really help out :)

1976783
Then I might just give it a shot. Please pardon my suspicions but I really don't like the TCB fics since most seem to use it as an excuse to bash Celestia... but not Luna, Epona help you if you bash Luna.... *cough* sorry.

:pinkiegasp: *GASP* What's this? A TCB fic where the ponies, humans and other races are coexisting in peace? Naw, it can't be, cause apparently it's supposed to be impossible. Yet here it is. Definitely following this!

As I read all your comments... I can't stop thinking...
What the fuck is "TCB"? I don't get it...
But! Does that mean, that equestria is as big as half of texas?
Dayum. And is there any link between Earth and Equestria(the former one) allowing communication?
I NEED TO KNOW!!!

I'm rather curious, are there any ponies who want to go human?

1989867
I'd like to say that I shan't spoil...but I'll be honest and say that yes, there do end up being some ponies who go human. I have plans to introduce it around the same time as Griffonization becomes available.

And its not spoilers to even barely hint at who one of said ponies is going to be.

We really need an eye rolling emote.

I am rather morbidly curious about this... I am both disturbed and interested.
I was told this had Conversions go both ways.
Natives humans going pony, and native ponies going human.
Is this correct?

2398812
That's the plan anyways. Its also got griffon conversions, and will have Zebra conversions (as well as something that would likely be considered controversial by both sides)

The next chapter is in progress, with me currently being the only one working on it. Will soon attempt to get a hold of my two co-authors in an attempt to prod them into activity.

2399136 I think I might join in on this project to contribute whatever two cents I have to the party.
I have a few decent ideas, though I still need to get a solid grip on what the mythos of this universe is at the moment.

2399856
I can send links to the outline and chapter 2 if you wish so that you can take a look.

2480885 Please do so.
I am rather intrigued by this project here.
