Have you ever wondered what would happen if a strange anomaly ends up in Equestria, in the form of a human boy that can mess up the world like he's a glitch in a program? Oh, he also has amnesia and met Discord early on. What could go wrong?

This is the story of Jaune, the protagonist, as he travels the world of Equestria in search of answers to how he came to this world, what he really is, why he can do all sorts of crazy things, and why a strange-looking creature kept trying to adopt him. Maybe a certain group of ponies can help him on his quest as they teach him the meaning of friendship...perhaps he will learn something else along the way too.

Ever since Luna returned from her banishment and been cleansed by the Elements of Harmony, she has always been worried that she would turn back into Nightmare Moon. So without telling anypony she made a magical construct, named the Tantabus, that would plague her with dreams and nightmares of what would happen if she did turn.

That is until one night the Tantabus did something that Luna never thought would happen, it gave her a good dream.

The story is inspired by stories Tantabus, Mk. II and Aunthood Issues by the great Rambling Writer

Go check them out if you haven't :)

Having learned much about Equestria from both Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer, the two principals from CHS have always been curious about what the world is really like. Luna finally proposes the idea that the two should find out themselves just what its like to be a pony...and not just any pony but royalty as well. What could possibly go wrong in this situation?

Twilight could probably name about thirty of them.

"The stars shall aid in her escape," it said.

It never said anything about a space bridge.

Megatron and his elite warriors had expected to teleport from the Oregon desert to Earth's moon. Instead they found themselves in pony bodies, stripped of most of their power, and forced to learn how to live like other organic life forms.

But Megatron has a plan. He will bide his time, learning about this new world and its new potential while his underlings try to find a way back to their home universe. If he can figure out a way to overthrow Celestia and conquer this land of ponies before then, so much the better.

This, of course, requires that his subordinates not act like idiots... and while he can count on Soundwave and Ravage, the same can't be said of Rumble, Frenzy, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, Thundercracker or Skywarp.

And especially not Starscream.

A series of slice-of-life stories (with a little adventure) in which some of Ponyville's background ponies are more than... well... you know.

Life is odd, really. You never know exactly what will happen, or if something is good or bad. Or if it will stay good or bad in the long run. Such thoughts only ever brought me anxiety. Such thoughts are all I really have anymore.

I was just a normal brony, enjoyed the show, the fanart, the music, and sure, I had my daydreams of going to Equestria. But, waking up in the Everfree forest as a pegasus of the wrong gender, without a memory of how I got there, before Twilight ever left Canterlot, really puts things in perspective.

Surviving the forest, Nightmare Moon, Discord, the Changelings, all of that will be easy, it's the lack of internet and inevitable socializing that has my skin crawling. Well, that and me potentially ruining the timeline with my sheer existence, that isn't fun either. That is, if the timeline doesn't ruin me first, or was already ruined to begin with!

_____________________________________
Somewhat self insert, and unwilling, but not too bothered genderbend, since some people can't stomach that, fair enough.
Warnings will be added and described as needed.
Story is slice of life with potentially heavy adventure elements at times.

This is just a, hopefully, low stress story to do on the side and have fun with, while my more in depth and complicated stories are forged. As such, things can go in many directions if it brings wondrous fun, adventure or drama I can have fun writing.

Now with cover art drawn by me! Huzzah! (3/19/2023)

Luna and Celestia's fight took a rather different turn from in most universes. Instead of assuming a corrupted form, Luna took those who supported her and left for the moon, where she and her followers still live a thousand years later. But sooner or later, worlds must collide, and when the ponies of the moon meet the ponies of Equestria, the sisters' conflict won't be so easy to resolve.

First in the Worlds-verse, and a part of the greater The Powers That Be multiverse.

Twilight still isn't having a very good day. An army of changelings is attacking Canterlot, and the experimental spell that blew up in her face has stuck her in a time loop until she gets everything perfect and saves Equestria.

She's got a plan. She's also got a problem: Suddenly, she's not the only one whose day is repeating. And when you're caught between unstoppable force and immovable object, life has a tendency to get complicated.

* * *

This story is an authorized alternate-universe re-imagining of Eakin's Hard Reset, in which multiple loopers turn the time shenanigans up to 11. (Knowledge of Hard Reset is not required, but based on reader comments, will help in sorting out the early chapters.)

Cliff's Notes versions: RampantArcana has started a GitHub repository to codify the time-loop rules and the early-story timeline. Hawthornbunny has posted a chapter-by-chapter breakdown of all the loops, including the ones we don't see, with a lot of critical analysis. Those links contain spoilers (of currently posted chapters). If you're confused, either one of those fan projects is a great starting point, and story comments have a lot of insightful discussion as well.

Publication schedule: 2014 kicked my plot, but as of November I'm picking up the writing again and hope to have something by the end of the month.

Duke Winters had a rather dull life, no family, not too many friends, and certainly no children. But one fateful day, he fell into Equestria and was given the task of raising six alicorn foals, foretold to save their land. Now armed with a disguise, an extended lifespan, and the lessons that his parents taught him, will he raise these foals and protect them? Or will he flop like the failure that he thinks he will be?

My name is Celestia.
This book is my memories of my time with Twilight as her teacher.

I do not know how you have found this journal. But what matters now is that you have. Perhaps you are Twilight, looking through my belongings. Perhaps you are a complete stranger. But all I wish, is that after you read this, put the book back where it was.

I hope you did, because I'll need it in a week.

This story is a sequel to Stranded in the land of the two cruel queens

After being returned to the proper timeline, Twilight Sparkle, her mind and soul became corrupted by the combination of the curse placed on her by Daybreaker and the tantabus implanted in her mind by Nightmare Moon, becoming something dark and twisted.

That same night screams of horrified mares echo across the land as they find their foals stolen by a dark alicorn.

Heeding the call of her former teacher, Sunset Shimmer, along with her six friends come to the land of Equestria to save the fallen princess.

Can the Humane seven, along with the remaining Mane Six, Starlight Glimmer and Princesses Celestia, Luna and Cadance save Princess Twilight or will a new dark queen rise to rule?

EDIT: Due to the limit of 5 main characters/character groups able to be tagged, Starlight Glimmer is also a main character.
