In a world where there are magical ponies and dangerous beings, a human who died will be the one who forces everything to kneel... nah, in fact, he just has bad luck and will live his life to the fullest because he no longer has the bad luck of his old life.

An argument between Sunset Shimmer and Princess Celestia reaches its boiling point, changing Equestria forever in ways no one expects.

Sunset is confused, the Princess is on fire, and no one quite knows what's going on.

The Princess most of all, but she can fake it with the best of them at least.

(Or, Princess Celestia ignites, and is replaced mentally by someone in Daybreaker's body. Shenanigans ensue.)

Waking up as a child in a world that shouldn't exist? That's bad enough.
Waking up as King Sombra—one of the most feared villains in My Little Pony—in the heart of the very Empire he enslaved in canon?

Yeah. That's a screaming-into-the-void kind of problem.
(Note: This is my first fanfiction so there will be plot holes and all that so go easy on me pls.)

Alicorns are revered. Alicorns are rulers. Alicorns are deserving of their stations.

He has no friends or family, no plans for the future. No destiny to tell him what to do, and no great feat to have elevated him apparently royal status; So why are those two so keen on helping him?

Or namely, What happens when a nameless colt with both wings and a horn is found shivering in the streets?

A few bombs here and there and boom! You got yourself someone dead.

Well no shit someone died, but let's just—

You know, a nuke is a slightly better way to die than fighting a war.

My name's Rimu, and as the text above this text implies, I died at the metaphorical hands of the fucking sun being launched into my backyard. It wasn't fun hearing the sirens blare like there's no tomorrow (there was technically no tomorrow badum ching), especially since I was in the middle of staring into spa- I mean watching one of my favorite episodes of MLP.

After the nuke exploded, I got transported into the magical lands of... Actually what is Equestria's planet named? Eh, later.

I got transported to the magical land of ponies as a changeling queen. After that I met some... Interesting ponies, got brain damage, got eaten by a hydra, fought said interesting pony, got promoted from a bartender to the head of the town guard for some reason and then died again. All in a week.

Well, atleast the next few months are gonna be interesting. I hope. Who knows, maybe I'll get to answer my question about changelings.

What question? Well, are ch-

Thanks for the reviews, me.

Extra tag is:Drama. OoooOOoo!

Sex tag is for innuendos.
Heavy reworking of characters.
Scratch it, this shits a crack fic with a few bits of actual real story. Im so sorry if you guys got disappointed by the direction of the story, I'll try to do better.
Also AIwhisperer you inspired me to put the system in this fic, equis dreams is fucking awesome don't forget that.

Michael works as a researcher in the local branch of the ‘Anomaly Containment And Study Centre’.

After a long day at work, he notices an unusual anomaly devouring all the blueberries in his garden.

MLP:FIM does NOT exist in this world.

This is a rewrite of a story I almost abandoned. However I will now try to fix plotholes and some characterisations and continue from there.

Check him out. He makes some AMAZING art.
Thanks to @solobrony for some dorky lovely cutesy scenes.

Diamond Tiara, a reformed bully eager to embrace her new life, struggles with her strained relationship with her controlling mother, Spoiled Rich, ever since she had told her off the day of the school elections. with the rift between them, Diamond tires her best to just go though life as normally as she can...

Until she meets a strange little colt with a oversized red scarf.

Pipp has been acting strange. Sneaking out at odd hours, humming mysterious music to herself, and most disturbing of all: wearing black eyeliner. Zipp, concerned about her sister's strange behavior, follows her late one night to discover Pipp in the thrall of a strange bipedal creature from another realm. Worse, he is teaching the princess how to harness an ancient and terrible power! One fueled by anger, darkness, hairspray, and rebellion against the status quo! Soon Equestria will witness a magical power like none it has ever seen before! Behold the might and majesty of Metal!

How does someone learn to be a baby again? To walk again, to play again? And how does a princess learn to be a mother—and to be imperfect?

Alex, a 21-year-old engineering student, is suddenly pulled from his world into the land of Equestria. But now, he finds himself in the body of an almost-newborn, forced to relearn everything—while his adult mind struggles to make sense of a world that doesn’t follow the same rules of physics as Earth. It's not easy when your body insists on acting like an infant.

Princess Celestia, a ruler who has quietly longed to hear the word “Mom,” offers to help him find a way home—if such a thing is even possible. Until then, she’ll take care of him.

Determined not to burden her further, Alex plays the part of a normal foal in public, hiding his adult mind to prevent any problems. Can he maintain the charade, or will his struggle reveal the truth? And as Celestia tends to him, will she discover that motherhood isn’t about perfection?

I wrote this fanfic based on a simple question: Why are there so many stories that approach age change with something like, "Oh, I'm a kid again… good to know" and skipping almost the entire childhood and learning process?

If you're interested, follow me on a journey of learning equine biology until midnight, making sense of the magic system with physics, reading articles about motherhood, and improving my grammar skills (English is not my native language—Spanish is—so there might be some odd phrasing. If you find any, please let me know).

A regressor actually doesn't regress. What actually regresses isn't him, but everyone else excluding him. The time for everyone else would rewind, but his own time would continue to march forward.

Continuing forever.

Forwards. And forwards.

Again and again.

I won't let this story be a tragedy. No matter how many times I march forward.

I will save Celestia.

Outside of my main stories. Random thing I had in the backlog of my mind I wanted to post.
