[Interactive/Comment driven] (Author's notes are important) In an instant you, Scootaloo, are forced into a destiny that is too complex to imagine... Now what do you do?

My story is not solely comment driven. I have three branches with many subbranches and i expect there to be many shared branches... I have a really large branch to work off of. Way too much time on my hands. way too much.

Rating IS subject to change, easily. As are all tags.
original rating, everyone.
tag, slice of life.
Main character, Scootaloo.

At first, the filly thought it was just Snips and Snails being Snips and Snails. However, some of the other ponies around Ponyville have started to make the same mistake, even when Sweetie Belle is in the exact same room just a couple yards away.
Well, Sun Glimmer has had it! She decides to take the most desperate action possible to show Equestria who she is. She's going to do the one thing that Sweetie Belle never had the guts to do: Sing at the next talent show.
Will the combined support of her sister and her musical tutor be enough to accomplish this task, or will she end up copying Sweetie Belle's stage fright?

This story is a sequel to The Happy Little Changeling

I had just arrived at Ponyville, so I knew none of the ponies here.

Alone, and outcast. Shunned by my own, what's that for a life for a pony?

I felt the need strongly, it is an urge amongst us, changelings. Only now, it is where everything changed for me, and in my life.

I was simply going past the Sugar-Cube Corner, only to see a special grey pegasus, whom I knew nothin about, at the time.

What's special about her, aside from the fillie by her side, where they were enjoying their Muffins? The love radiating from her, naturally. it is what any Changeling would have told you?

Here is where my life actually did change. I simply walked in, approashing the pink pony inside, as she handed me a package, I gladly paid for, before I walked out.

the package contained a Muffin cake. it's split four ways, I guess I could happily make due with my quarter, as was Dinkie. The rest was for Ditzy, the adult mare. this was the change.

I guess it is the ultimate in blind dating, since I had no idea I was on the date in the first place, just as neither did she.

In the years ahead, this is the day and the moment I will treasure, for what it did to me, and for me.

They say revenge is a dish best served cold. I used to wonder, how cold should it be? Well, I know now. The sort of cold that comes from eternal night and being locked in stone for over a thousand years. The sort that comes from the only person you think you can trust betraying you.

The sort of cold that comes from a knife in the back.

The Moon betrayed me. The Sun entombed me alive. And they were going to pay.

Celestia has made mentally challenged clones of the citizens of Ponyville and various terrorists of Equestria. Luna is concerned.

(Story rewrite incoming in the near feature.)

Victoria is hanging out at a convention for a game she knows next to nothing about, only there to enjoy the time being spent with her best friends. While there she's given a small blue ring from a vendor, pokes fun of some cosplayers, eats a lot and over all enjoys the atmosphere the convention as to offer.

It's only when she wakes up as a bird the size of a small falcon with no memory as to how and where she is, does Victoria break down and begins crying for help. Her cries are answered in the form of a young phoenix named Philomena.

This story takes place after the season 3 intro.

5000 years ago, the alicorns invaded the planet for the first time. 1000 years ago, the celestial alicorn sisters staked their claim over the pony tribes. Then the Everfree burned, and now the Empress of Equestria rules alone. Celestia may reign, but she does not rest, for ever are there terrors lurking: Things great, ancient, and inapproachable, older than the alicorns.

It is an age of great advancements in Equestria. Gunpowder, oceanic trade, and new ideologies have shifted the balance of power and pony attitudes to the powers that be. The alicorn ordained hierarchy is challenged daily, as bitterness grow between the insecure knights and nobles, and the resentful burghers and commoners. Though many speak as though as if the Equestrian universal peace is already a dead letter, desperate reformers fight their own battle to preserve their princess's empire.

But it is not by mortal striving alone that the wheel of history is turned. The supernatural adversaries of Celestia's reign have returned at last, to conquer ponykind for themselves. Nightmares return to stalk under moonlit skies, but they are just the first and do not even bear the deepest grudge.

In an age of growing crisis, will the ponies be found wanting? Will the princess herself be found wanting? Will naked ambition, arrogance, and evil shatter the very concord of the tribes? It is a fraught time to live, where the pony world faces both peril and possibility. The ponies, the alicorns, the monsters- all have but one goal, to survive and see the world remade to their desires.

Twilight Velvet has lived in this changing world long enough to despise it, while Twilight Sparkle is just coming of age in it. Shining Armor thought he found his place but discovers all is not as it seems. This pony family, divided by duty, may effect the world more than the even their alicorn sovereign, if they can survive being close to power. Surely fighting ponies and monsters alike is worth it when there is a nation and a future to win.

Author's warnings: This story has many original characters, a fairly complex plot and lore, and is very long. A story that started as me trying to write Game of Thrones with MLP ponies has grown up with me and has come to include many of my interests in political philosophy and history. I'm committed to finishing it before taking what I learned and writing this story in its own setting, however long that takes.

Sequel to Turnabout Storm. I own neither mlp or Turnabout Storm. This depicts Twilight Sparkle as an attorney who, picking up tricks from the legendary Phoenix Wright, has to face prosecutor Dark Side in court to save poo me of her friends. Little does she know, Dark Side has the whole law system within his relentless hooves!
