When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

*6-16-2017 Edit, added Rainbow Dash tag because it triggered knighty.*

The Crystal Empire finds itself in the middle of property dispute when a representative from the north comes in, claiming that Equestria doesn't own the land. Who does? Canada, apparently.

Alternate universe tag because this is a world with Canada in it. Random tag because it's a bit silly.
Written mostly for the group Canadance is Best Pony.

This story is a sequel to Trainer of Friendship

While on their way back from an evening to themselves, Princess Cadence and Shining Armor discover a scared little girl named Mavis, abandoned in an ally way in the Crystal Empire. After taking her to the Crystal Palace, Cadence sends a letter to her Aunt and sister in law and her friends to come and meet Mavis, and try to help her overcome all her sorrows and fears. After awhile, Cadence asks her aunt she would allow her to adopt Mavis as her own daughter. Can the crystal couple be the loving parents that Mavis deserves so much, or will Mavis' fears drive her away from Equestria? Read and find out!

Celestia, the ever regal and gentle princess...

Celestia, who along her sister, rules over the land for eons...

Celestia, holder of unlimited knowledge and the power over the sun itself...

Is still a mare. And a very lonely mare.

She always wanted a foal to call her son, but she was a princess. Something desirable by many, approachable by none.
So what happens when Celestia finds a young colt?

Why she will adopt him of course. And she will love him forever.

Despite his cursing, senseless mumbling and apparent delirious mind.
Yes, she will love him, even if appearances can be deceiving...

Adam, the ever lazy and impulsive teen...

Adam, who wants nothing more than some peace and quiet, even if he's doing jack-shit to achieve anything...

Adam, holder of limited knowledge and power over his own laptop...

Is a pony. Or a colt, more precisely.

He was not always like that, though it doesn't change the fact that he is now. So, what will our human do in a foreign world, trapped in a foreign body?

Why he gets adopted of course.

And despite his cursing, senseless mumbling and apparent childish mind.
His adoptive 'Mother' will love him.

And why does her sister looks at him that way?

Another Nightmare Night is happening and Nathan, Skyla, Cadance, and Shining Armor have been invited to spend it with Twilight and the gang in Ponyville, that's when Nathan gets permission from the mayor to tell them a scary story about the thing.

This story is a sequel to Party for one, Party for all

One day in Equestria, Toby, Conner, Timmy, Chris, Cory, Drake, Nathan and Skyla, Bolt, Melody, Clover, Echo Dash and Blueberry Muffin, Mike, the Beings of Harmony and Lord Hex, Kelly, Crystal, and Joshua, Guard Armor and Nyx all notice a wormhole opening up in the sky and their Equestrias are all pulled into one. How will they react to this merging of worlds? Probably better than expected and as friends. Except with Hex.

Note: I do not own any characters, they are property the stories they're from.

To clarify things, Toby is from a New Home, in the universe that he forgave Chrysalis and became her friend, Conner is from Heart of Diamonds, Timmy is from Dream come true, all written by the amazing talents of Apoeticheart, Chris is from the Monster of Canterlot (and he will retain his current age), Cory is from Being Brave, Drake is from Her child of the Night, both Nathan and Skyla are from My new Parents and A big brother, Bolt is from Momma's baby boy, Melody and Clover are from my very own, Party for One, Party for all, Echo Dash and Blueberry Muffin are both from Echo Dash, Mike is from Raised on an Apple Farm, the Beings of Harmony and Hex are from the Beings of Harmony chronicles, Kelly is from Blind Trust, Crystal is from Raising a human Daughter, and Joshua, Nyx and Guard Armor are all from New Life in Equestria, which happens sometime after the story, Past Sins.

This story is going to go through the process of a rewrite to keep canon with Season 4.

A young human boy of age seven is sent to Equestria by his loving parents in an attempt to save him from the end of the world. He is found by the Royal Pony Sisters and they bring him to Equestria to fulfill his parents' wish.

This takes place after Season 3 and is set in the Past Sins universe.

Edit: Changed a few of character tags.

I want to thank http://www.fimfiction.net/user/ShutterGuy] for the awesome picture he has done for this story. He captured Toby perfectly, so I give all credit to him and also he is a good writer, check out his story "Human and Pony alike", it is good.

Toby Mason is a six year old human child who wishes for someone to love him. One year earlier, Toby lost his mother Ashley Mason who died in a terrible car crash coming to pick him up from school one day. After Ashley's death, Toby was hard to console, but his father James Mason took the loss the hardest.

Feeling as his life ending along with Ashley's, James began drinking heavily, and in turn started becoming abusive toward Toby. Mostly verbally abusive, he would call Toby weak, pathetic, and blamed Ashley's death on him. Heartbroken by his father's actions, Toby would make a wish upon a star to find a new home, and find a new family who would love him and not be mean to him like his father.

How would the ponies of Equestria, especially The Mane Six react toward finding a lost human child in their land? Will the take him in and treat him as one of their own, or will they fear him and abandon him?

It has been a year since Toby has arrived in his new home of Equestria. He has a wonderful and caring family, great friends, and a good life. However, Toby is about to experience the dark side of Equestria, and he will come face to face with an enemy of the ones he calls family that they thought they got rid of.

He is about to come face to face with the Queen of Darkness, the Queen of the Changelings, Queen Chrysalis. What evil plans does Chrysalis have in store for the young child? How does she plan to use Toby to extract her revenge on Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and all of Equestria? Will the Mane Six be able to prevent something terrible happening to not only their home, but to their precious little Toby?

Or will Queen Chrysalis overthrow Celestia and take what she believes is her rightful place as ruler of Equestria?

A whole year has gone by since Princess Cadance and Shining Armor adopted Nathan, for he is now 6 years old and has adjusted to his new life in Equestria, but now a bigger joy comes into his life when he learns that he is going to be a big brother soon, but when the baby finally arrives it's not as much fun as he thought.
