Once more again the Summer months have made their way around, and all of Ponyville will see the joyous times abound. The Harvest celebration is seen just 'bout every year, and every-time it comes along you'd hear the shout and cheer.

Yet, some were not invited, though, for fear of how they'd act, causing certain accidents from the carefulness they lacked.

That all changed one fateful day when a stranger came to town, and with nothin' but a snap he turned the whole world upside down. He wouldn't change it back until they passed a single test, a challenge to the lot of them to prove who was the best. Now every pony started lookin' 'round with certain fright, cause who among them there could even save them from this plight?

But a certain mare stood up real tall and stated with a grin, that she'd take his little challenge cause she's the best there'd ever been!

Luna, the Princess of the Night, still struggles living in a world that has aged one thousand years in her absence, nagged by the guilt of past mistakes. Derpy Hooves, on the other hoof, would be glad to just get through her day without causing too much damage. When, one fateful evening, they bump into each other, neither of them expects that it would change their lives. What does the future hold for the two of them? At least one thing is certain: whatever happens, there will be muffins.

This is the story of a mare named Pinkie Pie.

At least, it would be, if she would allow such a story to be told. But she may end up disregarding the narrative... or worse.

All of our favorite YouTubers have randomly dissapeared to a strange and unknown place...

Twilight Sparkle has no idea what to do when dozens upon dozens of ponies tumble from the sky into the center of Ponyville - one thing is obvious, though, and it's that these ponies were not ponies from the start. Now, Twilight needs to figure out where to send these ponies, how to get them there, and learn more about the creatures they once were.

This is one of the hardest tasks Twilight has ever attempted, but she can do it with the help of her friends... Right?

OMG... The popular stories page on the first day? Seriously?! Thank you guys so much!!!!!!

Nothing's normal with Planet Express, a local package delivery company in the year 3000. They already have a cryogenic frozen delivery boy, a karate knowing cyclops captain, a foul-mouth robot that wants to be a chef, a bureaucrat who never shuts off, a cute Chinese pretty girl from the richest family on Mars, a lobster alien that acts as their doctor (despite not knowing anything & is homeless), a super old professor that should be dead, and a janitor that no one knows. With all of these people, what happens when they receive a package from an anonymous sender? And what happens when said package contains an adorable gray pegasus filly with crossed eyes and a love for muffins? The whole Futurama series recreated with Derpy as one of it's main cast, that's what! Don't like it!? Well bite my shiny metal ass!!!

Sunset Shimmer hasn't been to Equestria in a long time. Okay, she was there only a few months ago, but it was only for a moment, and she'd rather forget about that. One day, her friends manage to convince her to finally return, at least for the summer. After all, she could easily stay at Princess Twilight's. What Sunset soon discovers, however, is that there's a lot in Equestria that she doesn't know about, and when her feelings for her host come to surface, she finds this vacation might be more complicated than she expected.

Proofread by Deli73, JTHailstorm, and @PonyGirl1985 on Twitter.

Not actually related to National Lampoon's Vacation.

Twilight, seeing that her friend needed a little bit of companionship, decided to help him get a date.

But boy, did he aim a little too high for her taste.

Now, her and Spike need to help this putz of a human snatch a date from one of the most undateable beings on the planet, Princess Celestia.

Needless to say, they're doomed.

Warning: Story will contain horrible romance clichés, cutsieness, and all around silliness.

You have been warned.

MADE IT TO POPULAR STORIES! UPDATE! MADE IT TO MAIN PAGE RECOMMENDED BOX!

"Okay everypony! Time to play Oubliettes and Ogres!" Twilight said, holding up the reference book like the ponies hadn't seen it multiple times before.

Pinkie Pie clapped her hooves. "Oh silly-filly, we can say 'Dungeons and Dragons' we're both owned by Hasbro!" She was ignored.

"Dungeons and Dragons, I mean, Oubliettes and Ogres? Don't you know that's Nightmare Moon's game?" The Doctor gasped sticking his head through the window.

Princess Luna pushed him out of the way and stuck her in the window and shouted, "Just because we were mad with jealous and bruised ego, does NOT mean all our hobbies at the time were themselves evil!"

Twilight Sparkle blinked and uncurled an ancient scroll examining it closely. "At least that explains the ancient 'Slay the Tyrant Sun' campaign module from the ancient first editions I found in the Castle of the Two Sisters."

Luna blushed.

This is a group-story/addventure/chain-story/round robin, fanfic 'story' of the Mane Six Plus Spike playing Dungeons and Dragons/Oubliettes and Ogres, with occasional guest players (like Trixie or Gilda), with Spike and Twilight rotating as Dungeon Master. It's intended to be an IN-CHARACTER comedy.

However, except for the opening set-up post, each post should be more self contained, if say (in joke) Twilight is fire balled by a Mimic in one post in a desert pyramid, the next post can have them sailing a ship encountering seaponies siren expies, each one containing a short joke, or an extension of a previous scene if that's what the poster wants. Time skips, flash backs, the ponies rotating different characters and campaigns, are all allowed (and ENCOURAGED) as long as the ponies stay in character (such as Pinkie Pie NOT fireballing a cabbage sales stallion and saying she thought he was a demon, thank you very much).

There are prototype rules and may change with time.

It's also intended to be an INDEPENDENT UNIVERSE from the Pony POV Series OR the Pinkie Pie Variety Show! So things aren't esoteric.

What's you post in the comments, it's then copy and pasted into the fic above, have fun.

Basic rule: EVERYONE IS IN CHARACTER!!!!
