A person who was givin an unfair hand in life now gets another chance in the land of Equestria. Now givin the name Spiracle, he's put into an unfortunate situation at first, and must escape the clutches of Chrysalis with his best friend and pseudo brother, Thorax. With the help and advice of a Zebra named Zecora, he manages to create a disguise and name to fit, Fifth Wisdom.

He gains a spell that allows him to go into the Everfree dissonance, a place where the blinded minds of creatures reside, where through recovering the eyes that allow them to see the world for what it is, he changes their minds for the better. He then meets a strange being that offers to help him in saving the world from chaos, along with a group of unlikely allies. Join Fifth Wisdom as he makes friends with the ponies of the world while he attempts to improve it through his adventures of dubious moral efficacy.

you don't need to have played any of the persona games to understand what happens in this story, but it may help in understanding the main character's past, who's a reincarnation of Goro Akechi. As long as you didn't reveal that spoiler, this fanfiction should be spoiler free for Persona 5.

When Sunset Shimmer's nascent revolution falls apart and she flees Equestria via portal, she finds herself in 21st century Tokyo, where an aspiring dictator puts her where he puts all his problematic teenagers: Shujin Academy.

But Sunset still can't abide tyrants, and she's about to find out she's not alone.

Content Warnings: I'm trying to keep the themes and level of description of them consistent with Persona 5. That means violence, mentions of sex and sexual abuse (but no description thereof), talk of suicide/self harm, and supernatural mental illness.

You're currently on a plane headed from Manehattan to Canterlot, long after a tragedy that befell you and your family and put you in an orphanage for years. Soon you'll have a new start and begin your education at a new school. But not everything is peaceful in Canterlot.

Magic, monsters, and everything in between have been rumored to happen, but you've yet to see it, but you'd call yourself a hypocrite if you said that it wasn't believable. A whole other world is hidden within the one you reside in; when the clock strikes midnight, a realm of nightmarish proportions reveals itself, but you always believed you were the only one who could see it, you call it, "The Nightmare Realm."

With new friends and adventures on the horizon, you and those around you will be thrust into a great mystery that only you can solve, the mystery of the existence of the Nightmare Realm.

Also, what is the "Velvet Room"?

Twilight Sparkle is the best student a teacher could ask for. She tests 100% on every test and is never late for an assignment. Since her mentor is Princess Celestia, the leader of Equestria herself, this is quite the accomplishment. But with that being the case, Twilight has also left no time to her personal life at all, making textbooks her life. So, the princess sends Twilight to Ponyville to study abroad and learn about the magic of friendship. On the same night she moves, she suffers strange dreams and finds herself in a dark world of night filled with monsters threatening to kill her and those close to her. Can Twilight use the power of persona to save the world from destruction?

Greetings, guest. Welcome to the Velvet Room.
My, you are certainly an unusual guest! I can't say I've ever seen one such as you enter this room before. However, every meeting in this place has a purpose. You have my full cooperation.
I will be brief. In mere days--perhaps less--your life will change radically. Your being here is one sign of that. Though I cannot say how it will change, I can say this: This room can only be entered by those bound in a contract, or those who soon will be. It is bound to your fate. We will be here as you travel down your path towards the truth, and we will guide you as much as we are able.
I look forward to working with you, Princess Sparkle. This will certainly be a fascinating turn of events.

Apparently I got featured on or near 11/2/2014! I can honestly say I never expected this to happen! Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

**Slight Spoiler regarding ending of P3 and P3P. You have been warned.**

You have been given another chance to once again save others from the dark hour. Will you accept this chance? Arisato Minato?

Tartarus, the dark hour and the shadows don't just exist in the human world. It exist everywhere as long as there are others who have darkness inside them. And only you, Arisato Minato can help defeat the darkness. Now take up your mantle as the fool and help others to their paths.

Well here's my first shot at a second person pov using my favorite persona game. I also made this to get myself out of the writer's block I'm having... This might help me make new chapters for my other stories..

More tags and characters on late chapters..

The mind is an odd thing, sometimes capable of changing a person's entire worldview with the shift of only a few key details. However, sometimes these shifts are far more widespread than they should be.

Celestia has noticed such a thing, and she is slightly worried. Thankfully, she has no shortage of old friends, and one of them offers a possible solution to her problems.

She's just left wondering one thing:

Who exactly are these "Phantom Thieves"?

Contains spoilers for Persona 5

Persona 5 / MLP Crossover.
(Now with a Tvtropes Page!🥳)

Her Majesty Princess Celestia, the Prideful self-styled Goddess of the Sun and mother of all sins who crossed the thin line between righteousness and self-righteousness.

You are the ruler who hides her hunger for power behind lies and facetious benevolence while condemning an entire race to extinction.

We have decided to make you confess all your crimes with your own mouth.

We will take your distorted desires without fail.

From,

The Phantom Thieves of Hearts.

When a huge chunk of Equestria appeared floating above Japan surrounded by a bright golden barrier, everybody panicked until Celestia appeared before them with promises of friendship and peace…

But then things changed.

The Barrier soon started growing, engulfing everything on its path and killing every human it touched while leaving behind everything else, albeit “Purified”.

Even Celestia changed, and what once were promises of camaraderie and brotherhood, became veiled threats:

“The Barrier cannot be stopped, we are sorry.”

“We cannot control it, but you can still be saved! Convert! Become a pony! Become one of us and the Barrier and the Magic of Equestria will no longer hurt you!”

But while some believed the words of this gentle mare, others felt mistrust and fought back, turning the offer of Conversion into an obligation:

Convert or Die.

All while still begging Humans to accept, even when Conversion showed dire downsides to the humans undergoing it.

But there is no longer time, if the humans can’t decide, the Ponies will decide for them: Conversion! Conversion at all cost!

And from the shadows of despair, a last spark of hope emerged!

A group of young forgotten heroes, called back in action by the Staff of the Velvet Room to enact the Greatest theft in history!

It’s time for the Phantom Thieves to return, and steal the purest hearts of them all before those too fall into Distortion!

Time had passed for the hero Yu Narukami, and it was already summer vacation. He remembered making a promise to all of his friends in Inaba that he would visit them whenever he got the chance. Ever since he and his friends defeated Izanami and dispelled the fog from both the real world and the T.V. world, things have been peaceful during his visits. His friends always welcomed him with open arms (or in Rise-chans way of it, a neverending embrace… her and Teddie). Everything in Inaba was perfect…

…

But the fog of lies do not simply fade away in one world… it moves on to another.

Scootaloo, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were hanging out in their clubhouse when a strange miasma rolls in. It's mere presence brings in strange creatures known as shadows that seek to destroy all that is good but why did the fog roll in and where did the creatures come from.
