This story is a sequel to A Dream

Sometimes you have to give up on a dream. When that happens, the only thing to do is get a second dream, a new dream, a better dream where you get internet points for being an edgy horse.

Lazy Pines is a small town in the high country of Colorado, easily overshadowed by the bigger sights to see along Colorado State 9. When influenza strikes the town hard, it is little more than a statistical blip in a typical flu season. No one thinks any more of it as the initial wave of infection passes ... until the other symptoms begin to manifest.

Meanwhile, during what should have been a routine trip to Canterlot, Twilight Sparkle stumbles upon a strange anomaly which turns into an all-consuming mystery. As she discovers the complex web of magic stubbornly maintaining this mystery's secrets, she grows worried what it could mean for herself and her family.

And as the residents of Lazy Pines struggle to understand -- or even believe -- what is happening to them, two worlds have irrevocably been set on a direct collision course.

The pony that came back after 1000 years of exile to the moon was not the pony that Celestia expected. Instead of the menacing figure of Nightmare Moon what she instead got was a madly cackling alicorn rolling in a grassy field occasionally taking a break to stroke the lush green plants as if they were the most fascinating thing in the world.

While this was certainly better than the alternative Celestia was a bit miffed that her sister had not even acknowledged her presence before going to play in the grass. How could grass be more interesting than her?

I always wanted to go to Equestria. When I got the chance, I took the deal without reading the fine print. To my surprise, I didn't arrive there as a pony, or even as a human. It seems I get to view this world from a different perspective than what I've imagined.

My name is Echo. I am a Diamond Dog.

Jessica finds herself flung into a world she has little concept of. Everything is strange and new to her, but worst of all she cannot communicate with the native inhabitants. A world of monsters and sapient ponies, griffons and other assorted beasts is no place for a human girl.

How will Jessica cope? Without an understanding of their language how will she make her way in the world, will she even be able to ever communicate with them? Why was she even brought into the world and is there even a way for her to get home?

Now has a re-telling in progress focusing on the Equestrians' side of things, A Stranger Among the Voices

The summer season was just about over at Stella Lacus adventure summer camp. Amie and her younger brother Wes were eager to return home. Unfortunately for them, their adventures had only just begun.

All at once, the entire summer camp and the mountain it was built upon shifted universes, leaving Earth behind for a far stranger world. In the same moment, every camper, counselor, and staff-member transformed into strange insectoid creatures, with unknown powers and incomprehensible needs.

Instead of returning to nursing school, Amie has a new goal: keep her little brother alive. If only the other campers didn't look at him like food...

Picture, if you will, the most mundane of existences that could ever be imagined on our planet. What you just thought up was probably very much like my own, happy, regular, uninteresting-in-every-possible-way life. Simply mix in a healthy dose of 'staying away from women or romance of any kind at all costs' and you've got it down pat.

Well, that didn't last long.

I guess all that boring-ness was saved up in some cosmic karma pool or something, because I've suddenly woken up in a strange pony land where everything's flip-flopped and I'm treated like a helpless child. And all with a new body, to boot!

Joy of all joys.

Hi, my name's Heath. Here's my story.

RGRE

This narrative is essentially the culmination of everything I've wanted to see happen in similarly-themed stories but never did. It is my belief that perhaps the best reason for writing a story is that you really want to read one that has not yet been written. That was certainly the case for Libero.

In any case, I won't spoil too much, but the purposeful lack of Comedy, Human, or Slice Of Life tags should be indication enough that this fic will not be following the path of its predecessors.

Updates will likely be very sparse, as that's just the kind of writer I am.

A Notice of Hiatus

Jackson Brunner was walking home from work when he slipped and fell. He then awoke in a palace made of crystal that seemed to be long abandoned. Exploring these halls, Jack feels a strange sense of foreboding. Almost as if something horrible had happened here.

And that's not even the strangest thing about this situation.

No, things will only get stranger from here once the new owners of the palace show up.

Pretty much every time I upload a chapter lmao

God damnit I never ask to be isekai along with my whole shed into this place they called Foenum.

I tried to be civil with the natives who are sentient animals from my home Earth, while i met some that are very friendly and welcoming, most just call me a predator and stay away from me but sometimes they try to fight me.

You know what? If they can't accept that peace is an option, then i got to fight them with my trusty guns, of course not killing them, I have a heart damn it.

I just can not believe it.

I was waking up from bed thinking its another tuesday until I realized my house becomes a pocket dimension.

Trying to understand what's going on I open my front door and was shock to find out my front door is a portal to Equestria.

Now you may wonder what's Eque- nope not going to bother explaining, this adventure of mine is probably being written by some random kid and being posted on a mlp fanfic website.

Now I may be a brony and for most people it would be a dream come true.

Honestly when I found out, I was angry and scared.

I am angry because I was taken away from my home, my friends, and my family. And also the fact that out of anyone it could've happen to, it happened to be me.

And I am scared, which I do not show on the outside. Because unlike others who portrait ponies as loving and understanding with very little flaws.

Like any living beings there's no such things as flawless, I am forced to live in a pony's world that freaks out on anything outside of their species and understandings, and since I am the first human in equestria it is not a good sign. Who knows? I will probably be accepted but I will most likely become an outcast at best or a monster that needs to be destroyed at worst.

That doesn't mean I am going to stay cooped up at my home. I wanna live, I wanna explore, I wanna understand where I live. Because 9 times out of 10, most likely I can't get back home.

If I can't get back home then I'll have to adjust living here.

Who knows what I can do here? maybe I can help teach these ponies how to interact with other species.

If there's hope for them anyways...

Somehow this random story I daydreamed got featured on 12/8/23. Well I am putting it here as a trophy like other writers do.
