This is ???. They go by the name of Shade, short for Shady Drawing. They were simply at home, doing their usual thing, before finding themself in the same world that Equestria sits in. How intriguing. Did I forget to mention that they were turned into a changeling?

This’ll be fun. ;)

This is a redo on my story Over-Powered Shapeshifter. "At Least I'm Not A Mary Sue."
No need to read the garbage that was that story though, this’ll be redoing it from the beginning with some major differences.
This’ll still be garbage but I’m gonna give it a sprinkle of ‘okay’ writing. Pacing and crap isn’t gonna be good but I hope some of you like it(like how a lot of people liked the previous version, which still surprises me as it’s the most liked story I’ve written so far).
Also, chapters will probably come slowly, depending on if my wandering brain thinks up events or not.

The changeling hive, known for being enemies of ponykind has a new addition to their hive. An earth filly who was found in the everfree forest by a changeling. with nothing else to do with it, she is brought back to the hive and presented to the ruthless queen, Chrysalis.

When Angel returns from picking carrots, Fluttershy finds him to be more responsible and willing to be helpful without being asked. Her mood goes from delighted to confused when they are confronted by another "Angel"

===NEWS===
02/03/24: Due to a big change in my circumstances, this CYOA is to be considered on hiatus until June or July of this year.

Omnifaria – the Nation of Love. Synonymous with progress in bio-engineering, environment-friendly technologies, and industrialized love-production.

Omnifaria represents the promise that no changeling must ever go hungry, that every nymph will be allowed to reach their full potential. It is a utopia – and the most powerful nation on the planet.

All built on the ruins of the magical land of Equestria.

A Chrysalis-timeline story, 200 years later.

“...You know, ponies have actually been romanticized as of late.”

A slice of life story making light of a darker setting. Effectively a continuation of FanOfMostEverything's "A Crazed Gleam", though reading it is not strictly required.

Dark tag for the juxtaposition of telling a story about friendly changelings in a setting predicated on the end of pony civilization and occasional "dark" world building elements, yet aiming for a "happy end".

Story is also available as a text-to-speech generated audio book. Cover art (c) myself.

Chrysalis is having a tough time planning out her next move
since almost all her children are offering her waffles.

Might contain spoilers for the season final.

Author's note: this story is still undergoing occasional editing as I figure out what the hay I'm doing. Some scenes may be added, modified, or removed.

Two months ago, a changeling posing as Rainbow Dash tried to abduct Twilight. Nopony was hurt, but Twilight became a bit paranoid--how could she make sure something like that wouldn't happen again? The best thing she could think of was to invent a spell, empowered with her full might as princess, that would forcibly remove the disguise of any changeling in the vicinity.

It's testing day, and Ponyville's about to get twenty percent buggier . . .

AU taking place between seasons 3 and 4. Trigger warning for one scene of implied dubcon.

I woke up to a burning building coming down on top of me.

Oh yeah, that isn't even the half of it. There's these freaky Technicolor horses everywhere too and a few of them were dressed in golden armour.

They bound me, dragged me to the castle and hooked me up to some chains. Currently I'm being interrogated by a white unicorn... guard. Whatever it's called.

Well, it's not like it could get much worse, right?

Rated teen for suggestive situations and bad language

Found some cover art.

Sorry to whomever made this, but the source website was taken down or something, so I'm really not sure who to credit.

Finally found the name of the artist: Blaz Portenta

I got featured a couple times. Yeah, I'm surprised too.

Maple Blush was just a simple pony trying to do what her cutie mark said she did best: help bring ponies together. She might not be the strongest psychic in Equestria, and she could barely afford to be in the yellow pages, but still! It all had to count for something, right? Seeing into ponies hearts to bring them together, that… That was her talent, no matter what else happened. So what happens when she’s hired to help a “love-sucking bug” tell her roommate she not only has a crush, but is another species?

Originally posted on DeviantART for TheNornontheGo's "Our Character" contest. Maple Blush belongs to her, not me.

Similarly, Vanilla Chai does not belong to me either. She was generously offered to borrow by Wintergreen Diaries (previously known as Cerulean1313.) All credit goes to him for allowing me the use of his character.

In the magical land of Equestria the borders are kept by the watchful eyes of the fourth tribe. Evergreen Hold, one village among many, guards the endless forests along Equestria's southwest border. But lately something new has crept into the forest, it seems there is a change in the air...
