Drake McCain was your typical adult nerd doing typical adult nerd stuff. Until he got dragged to Equestria by a certain chaotic weirdo. What could possibly go wrong? Everything.

Note: this story will contain the following- sarcasm, ineptitude, dirty jokes (are there any other kind?) and much, much, more!

This story is a sequel to My Little Engineer

After spending who knows how long in cryostasis on their trip to their new homeworld, Luna wakes from sleep with a bit of trouble. That's not the only trouble she's about to find, however, as she soon learns that not all of the Equestrians made it to Lux Aeterna; her fiance included.

Luna must now take a small group of volunteers to backtrack their journey across the stars in search of the missing pods, exploring entirely new worlds and civilizations in the progress. Who will the crew find, what will they discover?

This story is an archive of an RPG that I will be hosting with some friends on my Discord server, rewritten and formatted to comply with Fimfic's rules of submission. I need a few more players who'd be interested in playing a lead role in this story. If you're interested, please send me a PM so we can chat.

James Oakfield, an engineer for Avalon Technologies, has the job of testing out experimental technologies. On a day like any other, he is given a "small" box, a starship, and a note. Some mistakes and a computer's random number generator result in him landing on an unknown world.

Sex due to sexual reference, gore due to injury descriptions.

When a space pilot who's only ever awake from cryo-sleep to perform maintenance and mine resources crashes on an unknown planet, what's he to do? Do what he does best, mine, grind and weld! Then when reports that the planet's he's landed on is not only inhabited by a race of intelligent ponies but is in the last throes of it's life and is threatening to destabilize, everything becomes a race against the clock in order to not only save himself but maybe even the very species he's found himself surrounded by.

MLP/Space Engineers crossover.
Sunset went to the human realm and came back a few years later with Twilight, becoming Twilight's student after Twi's ascension.
Not expecting many chapters or many long chapters. (Hah! Apparently not so!)

Given a unique perspective on negative emotion, less than a foal's knowledge of ordinary magic, a healthy schadenfreude, and danger bearing down on all sides, the self-proclaimed "Weiss Noir" makes no plans accounting for his death, and plans to keep it that way, even after being torn away from earth, turned into a unicorn, and dumped into one of the most inhospitable locations and times in all of Equestria.

Stranded in the Frozen North, a place where biting cold ends lives, and one thousand years in the past, in a time when peril is the norm, rather than the exception, Weiss decides to indulge in sorcery most foul, stolen ideas, and human ingenuity to survive.

Given the choice between a mad slaver and a mad sage, however, there is no avoiding an inevitable tide of ponies escaping the conquered Crystal Empire to bask in the warmth of his well-stoked hate. Something which draws attention, enemies, and most worryingly, the rivalry of his "peers".

My name's John. I guess my last name doesn't really matter any more. Life is ironic, isn't it? Life nurtures all kinds of species that can get along, but it also creates the species that kills others. In fact, there are some species, who's sole purpose is the death of everything but itself. I'm talking about diseases, of course. Viruses, bacteria, fungi, and even parasites. All my life, I found these things interesting. I loved studying them, so naturally I grew up to be an epidemiologist. When I wasn't studying diseases or doing other basic functions, I was playing one of my favorite games, Plague Inc. It's a game where you try to wipe out humanity using diseases. Over the years, I've become a master of the game, to the point where it isn't really a challenge anymore.

But, that all changed when the game sucked me into itself, and I wind up in a strange land, with even stranger creatures. But that isn't all. I've somehow gained the ability to create and control every single disease I can think of. Now, I have to survive in this harsh world, knowing that I'm one step away from wiping out the entire planet.

Like I said, life is ironic, right?

[Displaced fic]

To any newcomers reading this fic, I want to point this out. The story may seem confusing in the first five chapters, as I was trying to figure out how I want to write the story. I won't be getting rid of any chapters, but some small points might contradict each other across both of them. These points hopefully won't affect much of the future.

Twilight is called on to be a political Emissary to the far northern kingdoms. Due to the attacks from Tirek and the others, the land borders have been altered. Several miles of land that was once considered to be a part of Equestria is now within the borders of their northern neighbors. It is ruled solely by a pony that is as unwavering as steel. Twilight is tasked with being an emissary to this kingdom and try to negotiate to have him withdraw his claim to the territory. Meeting him is going to change everything she knows about how an Overlord rules his ponies. She finds out just how politics works for him and how he treats his subjects. She reminds herself to keep an open mind and treat him as she would any other. She is not prepared for what she finds. A stallion that rules alone. One that is more complex than she realized. One that if offended could spell disaster for Equestria itself. Hunter Flame is about to make her realize that nothing is as simple as she thinks it is.

Story is loosely based off the Overlord Video Games By Triumph Studios

My name is Eric. Me and my sister prepared for Comic-Con this year, the Covid happened. So we decided to put our costumes on and post pictures of us on Facebook. But we needed to finish them, so looking online, we found the helmet I needed and her contacts on a unusual website. After putting them on we found ourselves in Equestria, but it's not that great. Ponies are calling us monsters and trying to kill us. It's time we take the fight to them.

A woman named Marsara Semmeture goes to a store to get the final piece of her costume but gets sent to Equestria as a Zerg Broodmother.

I have been meaning to make this for a while now, and Bronyparasite got me to start making it as well as helping me by editing, so thanks a lot!
