A non-canon story set in the world of "Journey with a Batpony" by Gulheru.

A group of Noctrali fall to arguing about what they should do as for the first time in nearly a thousand years an Equestrian, Princess Twilight Sparkle, is allowed to visit their sacred homeland. As they argue the merits of holding Twilight captive for the crimes of Equestrians a thousand years dead, they receive counsel from an unexpected source.

Setting used with the kind permission of Gulheru.

The Batpony Trilogy consists of:
Interview with a Batpony
Rendezvous with a Batpony
and
Journey with a Batpony

I highly recommend reading some or all of these excellent stories as they hold some of the best world-building I've seen in quite some time. Also, italicized words are from Noctraliyar, the language of the batponies. You can find Guheru's guide to Noctraliyar here.

This story is the fifth of my "Song Stories." Stories inspired by pieces of music that would just not leave my head until I wrapped a story around them. Here are the previous four:

Twilight's Friendship
Fighting for Twilight
Rock Bottom
and
Battle Dawn

We could tell that the Rainbow Laser emitted by the Rainbooms at the end of the Fall Formal was powerful, just look at the crater it left. But what else could that do to Sunset Shimmer?

This story is a crossover between MLP and Alan Ituriel's Villainous.

Black Hat has been notorious for quite a lot of things over the course of his long lifespan, many of them rather diabolical. Considering this, he would likely not have anticipated that it was one of his more petty indulgences that would trip him up in the end. However, releasing a mocking ‘lost files’ video sassing an embodiment of chaos and disorder for his reformation at the hooves of pastel ponies was probably not the best idea. Then again, nobody had ever accused Black Hat of wisdom.

Discord, needless to say, was not best pleased by the horror’s razzing, and decided to take matters into his own claws. What Black Hat failed to take into account was that, while silly a lot of the time, Discord possessed fewer of the limitations keeping him in check, and a penchant for warping the existence of others.

So Black Hat scoffed at the notion of those pastel ponies? Why not make him dependent on their saccharine sweetness to feed? A changeling, after all, could hardly deny the value of love. The idea was quite appealing, and while Discord was now under expectation of not causing havoc for Equestria, someone from outside couldn’t possibly count, could they?

Discord seized Black Hat while the horror was asleep and drew him into the world of the pastel ponies he’d so mocked, altering and binding him into a new shape - that of a changeling egg, in a hive just far enough in the past that he thought he'd be able to enjoy the entertainment in the present without having to wait. He couldn’t make the change total, some aspects of Black Hat’s nature too intrinsic to remove, but he could make sure the new equid could not simply shrug off the change. Stranded in an entirely different life, Black Hat would need to learn how to live it.

Starlight, upon seeing her mother flee the house, can't help but break down into tears. Abandoned. Little Starlight can't believe her mother would abandon her and her father. She grows up hating her mother because of this.

"Gunpla is FREEDOM!"
- Meijin Kawaguchi III

Gunpla: Noun, a portmanteau of "Gundam plastic model", miniature models of massive Mobile Suits from the franchise Mobile Suit Gundam. For some Gunpla is a hobby, for others, it's practically a way of life and there is no better way to show this than by the sport of Gunpla Battle, customizing and controlling animated Gunpla and pitting them against one another in no hold barred matches.

To Sunset and her friends, however, Gunpla is a foreign world they are only just learning about and their journey into this world will be met with surprise, laughter, hardship and, most importantly of all, friendship.

[Battle Start!]

Humanity has essentially destroyed itself and I was the lucky one who didn't really change at all, negatively anyway. Everyone was transformed to have animal features and even became feral, animalistic in nature and intelligence. Hopefully the new world won't be so bad, WHEN it comes about anyway.

Clop side story is out https://www.fimfiction.net/story/420103/can-we-not-mature-chapters

Also decided to gender bend some characters.

First few chapters are pretty fast paced, will fix this eventually.

I may use content from other sources hence the crossover tag, I hope that won't be a problem, I also hope you get any references I make.

Story being rewritten, it's your choice if you read the original. Rewrite chapters will be published on this story though.

Sunset Shimmer's life was turned upside down in an instant, leaving her not only to battle her inner demons but to also try to make amends but it isn't easy to forgive or forget when someone has hurt you and it seems only a few at Canterlot High are willing to even try to see the good in her. Will the few friends she has be enough to stop her from doing something rash?

Twilight Sparkle was a prized student of Princess Celestia and Flash Sentry was a loyal Royal Guard and both were proud citizens of Equestria.

Then one day, both of them are cast out of Equestria for a crime neither of them didn't do that before they could think, they're rescued by the towering machines Gypsy Danger and Striker Eureka along with their pilots.

Once rescued, the pair learn that they were recruited by the Pan Pacific Defense Corps or PPDC to help them win the Kaiju War with Marshall Stacker Pentecost giving them this option: Where would you both rather die; in some nameless wasteland or in a Jaeger?

With their choice made, the Equestrian duo are thrust into a war of their lives...

*(Profanity warning is for swearing as people swear in war.)*

A former military pilot, who is now a stunt pilot dreams to be in the Blue Angels. Heading home from a rather average air show. Follow Miles as he is regressed into a foal. He attempts to battle mental regression as everypony else wants to adopt him!

Will he accept his new life, fight it... or reject this reality, and substitute his own?

WARNING: Strong language ahead. Words of naughtiness, yes.

When the Princess refused Sunset Shimmer the reward which was her right as a pony of talent and excellence, Sunset was determined. She would prove her mentor wrong, she would prove her worth, prove her worth as a pony and as a princess in her own right. The Mirror offered promises. It promised Sunset many things.

The Mirror lied.

The land that laid beyond the Mirror was barbaric beyond all her worst expectations. Ape-like beings strode through this world, arrogant, violent, vicious beyond anything in Sunset's experience. Slavers, savages, brutes, carnivores.

They put her in chains like cattle, and told her she was livestock. Then the brutes tried to give her as a gift to those whom even brutes feared, to the eastern savages. To a people who said there were only two things in this world: those that ride, and those that are ridden.

And so if she has any hope of ever proving herself worthy of being a person again, Sunset Shimmer would have to show that she could be one who rides - that she is...

Dothraki.
