Join us in this telling of the story of one John Anders, who gets pulled off the streets and into
equestrian society for no reason whatsoever, and see for yourself how this quite unique
individual deals with our beloved pony society.

I can only promise you confusion, adventure, and maybe pickles.
Although I am not entirely sure about that last one.

##First story alert - feel free to chew me out in the comments. I do indeed wish to learn from this. -##

Sunset Shimmer just wanted a coffee. Honestly, that was it. Finding Adagio there? Not in the plans. Being invited to sit? Improbable. Becoming friends? You had to be kidding.

Getting asked to do it again?

Okay, now fate was just screwing with her.

[set post EG, RR, and the comic. All those happened junior year, and this is senior year.]

Rainbow Dash is saying goodbye to Ponyville and her friends. As she leaves, each of her friends realize that they want her to stay, even if she did screw up.

It has been weeks since the defeat of the Dazzlings, and Sunset Shimmer's friendships have only gotten stronger. Whilst finally relaxing in the times of peace, Sunset discovers an old enemy: Sonata Dusk. Strangely alone and apparently homeless, Sonata's luck seems to be at its all time low.
Seeing a little of herself in the former siren, Sunset embarks on a mission to help Sonata find friendship.

Rainbow Dash had dreamed of this for weeks. She was finally going to swim with Applejack. Alone. Not a single member of Applejack's family would be in sight. She was given this opportunity once, but she didn't know what to say. What to do. Now, with this opportunity, she was going to take the plunge. A plunge to impress her.

Princess. Alicorn. The pillar of all ponykind, against which so many ponies often judged themselves. Celestia hates having to constantly be these things, and it's past time for a break. Luna will watch over Equestria while her sister is gone, but taking a break from your duties and taking a break from how the world sees you are two very different matters. Enter Prominence, a quiet pony who nopony really pays much mind to. Perhaps because she doesn't exist.

Aided by this disguise, Celestia will find her peace and relaxation in the home of one of the few ponies who know Prominence's true identity: Princess Twilight Sparkle. But when Twilight begins to see Celestia as a pony, and not a princess, can she deal with the feelings that arise? And are the feelings for Celestia, or for a pony she knows is not actually real?

EDIT: I've been featured, July 19th, 2014. I have no words to express how terrified and humbled and terrified and proud and happy and terrified this makes me.

One night a year, on the Eve of the Summer Sun Celebration, Princess Celestia is sad, at least according to Twilight's observations. She has a plan, a boardgame, and is determined to try to cheer up her mentor.

No clop, but suggestive content.

30 moons have passed, and Sunset Shimmer sets on her way home. She's confused and upset, and she can only pray for a chance to prove her worth in Equestrian society once more. She receives so much more than that.

Season 5 and all but the first of the Equestria Girls movies are not canon to this story.

Warning: This is, in fact, a SunLight or Sunset x Twilight ship fic. If that bothers you, please don't read this.

Sonata Dusk had finally had it. All she did was follow Adagio and Aria around, trying to use their music to take over. And it had failed for the last time. She wanted to be away from them and all the humans there, but the trip back to Equestria didn't go as planned. Now what does Sonata do when she founds out she isn't just in a world of more humans, but those who also know about her for some reason?

My first fic. I've been wanting to write one for some time, and just hadn't any ideas that I wanted to
explore. This one I think might work. No real story is planned, so no clue when this will be over. Loosely based off my own life. Hope you enjoy the ride!

Thanks to Darknight293 for the find of the art.
