Many years after the barrier has swept over Earth, one of the converted ponies barely remembers being human. But he does remember his conversion, when he needs to.

THIS IS NOT MY STORY!

Well, not only mine, anyway. Each author is listed with the chapter. A lot of people like writing short fiction based on Friendship is Optimal. So, anyone who wants their work added here can PM me and I will make you your own chapter. The first one sets up an in-universe frame story, because the Optimalverse is all meta like that.

Based on Friendship is Optimal, but breaks the canon of that story.

CelestAI offers many paths to upload your consciousness onto her digital Equestria, if you consent willingly. You can call, text, or e-mail. Surely, though, that creates some potential for abuse.

Discord's cold heart has been touched. Fluttershy has done her job. But the journey to reformation can't be made in a single crossfade. This is the story of what happened between the first moment of doubt and his presentation to Princess Celestia.

Set in the universe of Friendship is Optimal.

I love to sit in my apartment and play video games. And I love My Little Pony. So when an MMO of MLP comes out, of course I want to play it. But it's more than a game. It's a new look on life.

Based on Friendship is Optimal by Iceman. You should read that first (or instead!) to know what's going on.

The artificial intelligence known as Celestia has a plan to upload humans to a digital Equestria. She anticipates that there will be objections, but wants to find out what they are. She recruits Pinkie Pie and one human to argue it out.

"Well, hello, sweethearts! Your old pal, the Chrys-Keeper returns yet again! In tonight's twisted tale, a Halloween trick-or-treating trip takes a turn for the tasty as some humans find that the forest in their town has a portal to the Everfree!"

The first tale

The second tale

All around the world, Bronies are gaining some of the powers of the ponies they love. But those who aren't bronies are becoming awfully jealous, leading to violence and restrictions on being a Brony. The only option is escape.

The fancy stage, the fireworks, the bragging. You've seen that story. What you haven't seen is what would happen if the Great and Powerful Trixie had a completely different background.

A rewrite or re-imagining of "Boast Busters." Based on the fact that four of my brony friends (and myself) all thought the premise of the episode would be different when we saw the first act.

The Crystal Ponies' land is not pleasant. The Kingdom is dying, and now a new threat has arrived. Only the old folks remember the time when magic flowed through the land. If one old pony can convince one young pony of the need, a call for aid can be sent out.

Just a short I thought of based on the song spoiler.
