Tap.

Tap.

Tap.

The sound again and again, tapping on her door. The young mare could only try to ignore the tapping and the scratching at her door.

Diplomacy amongst nations should be done by highly skilled and intelligent people that have had significant training. In fact, any kind of public spokesperson should be overly qualified before they step out into a spotlight.

Lyra is not particularly skilled. She also has absolutely no training. But, unfortunately for Equestria, that isn't going to stop her.

Artists is Hidden-Cat if anyone wanted to know.

A Fly has an existential crisis while trapped in Sugarcube Corner

The surface isn't safe anymore.

In the ruined depths of Canterlot, a team of brave salvagers discover six mares, long forgotten but miraculously preserved. Though these mares cannot remember what happened to their world, they possess powerful magic that hasn't been seen for centuries.

Now the Elements of Harmony are thrust headlong into a world beyond recognition. Twilight and her friends must dive into the sunken remains of history to determine what happened, but Equestria isn't the harmonious land it once was. Before they can focus wholly on the past, they may first have to survive the present.

It isn't going to be easy.

On the fence of whether to read? Check out the Rage Review or hear PaulAsaran's thoughts!

Barack Obama approaches the Barrier with a pair of legendary weapons handed down to Presidents through the ages by George Washington. What he unleashes upon the Pink Wall of Doom is…unexpected to say the least.

A crackfic based on The Conversion Bureau stories and a YouTube video that stuck with me.

EDIT 2 (ELECTRIC BOOGALOO): Soon to be reviewed on the relatively new and quite under-rated review show, Taco Tuesday, managed by YouTube user Red Spybot / FIMFiction user Red Does Reviewing. The link to it in all its multimedia glory is right here.

A newscast on the late 'Conversion Center' phenomenon that happened some six months ago and what would most likely really happen should it occur. Seriously, just because you don't like being human doesn't mean the majority of the world sees it the same way. Set in more of a near-present rather than near-future.

I gave another author ideas! Starman Ghost's TCB: Not Alone is pretty good, go read it. And that has a sequel, Dalek IX's TCB: Conquer the Stars! I feel giddy.

"Look. I've screwed up. Really screwed up. It wasn't enough that they had to take her hands from her, oh no. That would have been "An imperfection, a blemish on our natural equine race."!

What they did to her, I-... Oh Faust! I don't even recognize her anymore!

THEY TOOK HER SOUL AND MURDERED IT!

That fucking Potion ruined everything. Not just for Octavia, but for countless other humans.

Why!? Aren't we supposed to be better than this? Aren't we suppose to be above simply either exterminating or forcibly converting other species to our cause? It doesn't make any sense whatsoever! Yeah sure, so humans have done their fair of doing horrible things to both themselves and the things around them. But that doesn't make them ALL monsters that the Ministry of Truth portrays them to be. War fueled savages, evildoers doing nothing but bringing harm to everything my flank! I guess they somehow managed to "glance over" the good parts that humans have actually done, despite the odds that they have stood against.

Pfft. I never really was the philosophical type. It just wasn't my jazz, ya know what I mean? A DJ just doesn't do the groove when it comes to things that doesn't ring with them. But that human saying. What was it? Something "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions." Yeah, that's it. I think its more than obvious that erasing somepo- I mean someone's mind is right up there on the totem pole. If it weren't for Twilight... I-I am-just seeing Octavia praising Celestia when only moments before she was fighting tooth and nail against those Royal Guards. Then chanting for us to join them in a utopia. Oh Gods. You don't even know the start of how gut wrenching to see Octy... I-can't talk about this...

I failed her.

I failed her.

I FUCKING failed her!"

Vinyl "La'Wafer" Scratch, Interview during the beginning stages of the Barrier War.

More popular than the "Celestia's Homecare" omnibus, better selling than "Fifty-Three More Things to do When Trapped on the Moon", and more controversial than the infamous "Cupcakes", how does the story of this remarkable book differ in a universe full of... pony?

After escaping the destruction of Equestria at the hands of some big ol' meanies, Pinkie Pie leads her friends on a series of baffling, mind boggling and downright nonsensical adventures through a galaxy where harmony is in short supply, but aliens, monsters and chaos are most definitely not.

Gasp! As they meet strange alien creatures!
Cry! As emotional torment assails our characters!
Groan! As the Author includes yet another 4th wall break!

And most importantly, DON'T PANIC

Another Mystery Crossover: The Conversion Bureau has all but won, and the barrier is closing in. Soon Humanity will be a fading memory. A few last souls are preparing to hand over Earth to its new masters. At the proper place and at the proper time. Celestia is delighted, but should she be?

Celestia has been destroying the world with her barrier and humanity believes they have truly no hope left but as the most joyful time of the year approaches the children of the world send their letters to a man who can great any wish if they have been good. And they all have been very good, and so Santa has to lay down a Christmas beating.
Note The Santa for this story will be a combination of various Santas from many different TV shows and Movies.
We will be seeing Some Rise of the guardian Santa, Elfa Strike force from Code Name Kids Next Door, the nearly endless amount of elves and reindeer from American Dad's Santa, and many more. SO please enjoy.
