For almost a thousand years, the immortal Nightmare Moon has reigned over Equestria as Empress. To the average pony, Nightmare Moon is an overarching enigma whose rule is absolute and whose wrath is terrible. But to Twilight Sparkle, who as an orphan has never known her parents, the Empress is something else entirely. When the young unicorn is brought under the royal wing as an apprentice, she learns a great deal more about the supposed tyrant than she ever knew. But as Twilight is introduced to life with her new mentor, she is thrust into a world of political intrigue, conspiracies and secrets. Secrets that were never meant to be revealed. As allies and enemies plot against the very peace of the nation, will Twilight fall prey to the perils of her new position? Or will she prosper and find in Nightmare Moon the mother she never had?

My eternal gratitude to my editor, LordOfTheWrongs, without whom Night's Favoured Child would not be the story it is today.

Now with added TVtropes!

Lance was never a pony for adventure, preferring to stay with his inventions in the bowels of the Auraskate, but when a space colony drops off the radar, his ship departs, carrying the Princess and the Mane 6. When they arrive, they find the colony....

Destroyed.

Can the Mane 6 and their new found friend help save Equestria with the help of a long dead Princess's idea?

Read on to find out (Chapter 1 and 2 are for intro. 3 is where things get started...)

Twilight has been in Ponyville for two years now. Under Princess Celestia's instruction she has investigated and wrote on the magic that is friendship. Her studious nature has made sure she kept up to what would be her normal curriculum, but recently she has begun to find advances spells far to difficult for her to use. To compensate she has been going to sleep later and waking up earlier. Spike seems to be getting distant as Twilight gets further enveloped in her studies and her friends are beginning to worry about her. But it seems that Pinkie Pie is there to save the day when she knocks on her friends doors before dawn to tell them that there is a new pony in town, and they "Have to be the first to greet him."

This fic is mostly to relieve my creative tension. It's probably going to be sloppy, the story will most likely make absolutely no sense. It's my first fanfic, so this is mostly me trying stuff out.

Argent, a regular closet brony, is too worried about his parents discovering his secret to pay attention to the string of disappearances happening in his hometown of Deutail... But when one of the kidnappers sends him to Equestria, he's forced to deal with the consequences.

Meanwhile, an ancient prophecy that Celestia tried to forget has begun to come true... and Argent and his friends are brought along for the ride!

Description:

Twilight Sparkle throws a party for some friends, when it turns out larger than expected, she uses some spell to ward of exhaustion. As a result, her horn (the core of her magic) gets linked to a "wormhole" which causes some unfortunate events leading up to her ultimate demise.

Part 1: Lyra's Pyro Predicament
Part 2: Twilight's Demoman Devastation
Part 3: King Sombra's Robotic Retaliation

When a mishap causes two para-dimensional weapons to colide with one another, RED Team's Pyro is sent flying from the Team Fortress 2 universe into the alternate universe of My Little Pony, where he is almost instantly discovered by Lyra, who shelters him in her home.

Having him hidden in her small townhouse isn't easy; keeping him from setting things on fire, teaching him that not every cart that passes by is cause for alarm, and that blue ponies are not something to be suspicious of.

However, with Nightmare Night soon approaching, Princess Luna feels that there may be something more sinister riding on the coat tails of Pyro's grand entrance; the first human to ever set foot in Equestria some thousand years ago...

The sequel to An American Dude in Equestria

Years after returning to Earth, the human finds himself once again brought to the ponies' world. This time, however, his friends don't recognize him and their adventures are dictated and observed by Discord himself. Deception, pain, absurdity, and tension abound.

It can be said the multiverse is a series of rivers, each one its own reality, all flowing infinitely close to each other, but never touching. When one river receives a sudden influx of energy and overflows its banks, touching another reality in the process, two species must come to terms with their sudden awareness of the other. And as the deeper ramifications of their meeting become apparent, both species must make a choice as one.

While this is a direct sequel to In Duty's Name, it is not required to read it. It is recommended, as it will help you get to know everypony better :)

Will they be able to rise above themselves and face the many challenges that await them? Will they be able to figure out the true meaning of Friendship? Will they be able to not murder each other or themselves while doing so? Do they even want to go back?
