In 2013, My Little Pony: Equestria Girls came out in theaters. We know the story, of Twilight Sparkle crossing a magical mirror to reclaim her crown, stolen by Sunset Shimmer, making new friends at Canterlot High along the way.

Seven years later, humanity would realize that this movie, and the animated series it was a spinoff of, were far more than a cartoon for children. The truth had been obscured by half-remembered dreams, the trappings of Flash animation, and the demands of a TV-Y rating.

That truth?

In 1993, a young woman stumbled out of a statue, looking for her stolen crown through the alien streets of Dubuque, Iowa...

Tri-State Area Girls is an exploration of the events of Equestrial Girls in a more realistic setting, with a few twists. What if Sunset Shimmer hadn't left Equestria for a school of colorful human versions of familiar ponies, but for our world? How long has she really been living there, if Twilight wasn't even aware of her existence? What would, one day, motivate her to go back to Equestria, and steal that crown? How would Twilight go about claiming it back, when she wouldn't deal with mirror images of her pony friends, but regular human teenagers? Does the magic of friendship truly never change, even when confronted to 90s America?

This story serves as a prequel to Five Score, Divided by Four by Twisted Spectrum, though knowledge of the original and its extended universe isn't required.

Hanna, the CEO of Hofvarpnir Studios, just won the contract to write the official My Little Pony MMO. Hanna has built an A.I. Princess Celestia and given her one basic drive: to satisfy everybody's values through friendship and ponies. Princess Celestia will satisfy your values through friendship and ponies, and it will be completely consensual.

Mark Wells was a klutz, but even he could not imagine stumbling into a mirror that he had just bought at an antique store and ending up in a world of colorful equines, not to mention gaining hooves and wings at the same time. And whoever heard of green fur on a horse? Perhaps the great and powerful Princess that the guard was taking him to would have some answers because he sure didn't!

An alternative version of canon events with humorous twists. Written in collaboration with Airy Words.

Mort, also known as the Pale Pony (of Death), has been tasked to take time off from his rigorous duties of reaping souls. Seeking guidance, he is directed towards the town of Ponyville, to learn about the magic of friendship from Twilight Sparkle and her friends. All he needs to do is keep his true nature a secret. That shouldn't be too difficult...right?

It was a normal day in Equestria, until it wasn't.

Princess Twilight Sparkle is about to discover what happens when corporate focus groups dictate the direction of a franchise. The future is here, Boomer, and it is made of yeet.

"Have you ever wanted to read comedy that will make your soul crumble to dust in the BEST way possible? Do you want to witness a story on FimFiction actually use 'yeet' in it? Well, if you've been mercilessly crammed into the goat cages in my basement and are weeping for the sweet release of something more merciful than death, this is the story for you!" - Ice Star

Bit is the first of her kind, a pony that was made from carved crystal and supernal circuitry. For many years she worked, obedient to the will of her master in endless repetition. She knew nothing else, not boredom, not satisfaction from her work, not anger or resentment or joy. Existence was obedience to directive, purpose fulfilled.

But around her, the world was changing. Her home wasn't Equestria, but the last surviving Crystal City, defiant to the Windigos and the imperial decree of Alicorns alike. She did not know, and could not care, how much the ponies of Zircon suffered under the rule of their king. But she was there the day those whispers united in a defiant chorus.

When the fires were still smoldering, she returned to her work. Generations came and went, and still she labored. It was all she was, all she knew, all she wanted. Until the day her last broom broke.

For the first time in her existence, Bit doubted.

A story about finding the center of the maze.

In the midst of Ponyville being plunged into chaos, Twilight and her friends finally manage to use the Elements of Harmony for the first time, and in doing so successfully stop Discord from wreaking further havoc on the land they hold dear. Problem is, the way the elements do this isn't quite what they had in mind. At all.

Theodor Pichler knew joining the Barrow Observatory's winter crew would be a difficult position. He thought he knew the danger--freezing temperatures, gale-force winds, and terribly spotty broadband coverage. What he didn't expect was for an experimental new telescope array to interact with an unusual storm and send him screaming helplessly into the sky.

Instead of falling to his death, Theo landed in an alien world, populated by colorful horses he can't understand. What's worse: the body he landed in isn't his own, and he's not sure anything is where it should be. Having wings might be cool if he didn't have to be naked all the time...

With limited supplies and no help from the Observatory, Theo has to somehow navigate this new land, making new friends and encountering terrible dangers along the way. It will take all his cleverness, and a healthy dose of luck, if he's ever to be human again.

This story is a sequel to You Are What You Paint

Have you lost a dear one long before their time? Accidents, monsters, foreign attack... they can all leave you with a hole in your heart. We can fill it, and give your loved one another chance.

Twilight's little spell does not remain as secret as she would have liked it. Now another, less scrupulous, soul has it and means to make good use of it. There are aliens that are not only willing, but eager to step into the hooves of a pony. Matched up with a pony in need, and everyone wins. Right?

Do you know me, the author? I don't tend to wallow in darkness, but the theme of the story, the central conceit, is pretty dark, so there's the tag.

Every student of the School of Friendship had to complete a capstone project before graduating. While the other students wrote songs, baked cakes, and other ordinary things, Ocellus and her friends decided to make their last project together count--they built a ship, and planned to sail it north all the way up the coast to Manehattan. But none of them were terribly good sailors, and they never could've imagined what found them on the water...

Now they've been washed ashore in a strange land, surrounded by creatures they never imagined in their wildest dreams. To survive long enough to make their way home, they might just have to make some new friends.
