Princesses Celestia and Luna have a favorite niece, but unfortunately she's been acting a little strange. Determined to get to the bottom of things, they pay her a visit.

A story that is effectively One Big Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind reference. You've been warned.

For a human that ended up in an alien world full of talking ponies, you've been living a surprisingly boring life. Sure, you have friends and go on adventures and stuff, but you don't really have a "purpose" per se. At least, you didn't until about a month ago, when a "heinous villain" that had been turned to stone went missing from Canterlot. Now, there's a washed-up queen crashing in your basement and stealing your love.

If only you could get her to admit that she doesn't actually steal it from you.

There's a lot of things about Cadance and Shining Armor that never quite made sense: their sudden appearance before the Royal Wedding; their suspiciously convenient suitability as rulers of the Crystal Empire; their oddly abbreviated pregnancy; and even their quick change of heart after Spike asked them to forgive Thorax.

Twilight Sparkle knows exactly how deep that conspiracy goes — she was there in the beginning, when her hive's queen created Shining. And she wasn't happy about it.

Rated 'Worth Reading' by Titanium Dragon! "If [you like] the idea of a story which hints at a greater conspiracy behind the scenes which explains some of the plot holes we see in the series, you’ll likely enjoy this."

Dipper Doodle and Thunder Evening arrive in Canterlot, do I even need to say Chaos Ensues?

They are Fancy's kids after all.

For so long, Chrysalis, Tirek, and Cozy Glow stood paralyzed in their stone cacoon; unable to move. To speak. To do anything. But that didn't mean they couldn't see or hear everything around them. For age after age.

The Russian version here.

Hearth's Warming eve is two days away, and Donut Joe is preparing something special. But when things take an unexpected turn, he realizes his hooves aren't going to be enough on their own.

Luckily, an unwitting volunteer stumbles into Joe's life.

Much to his frustration.

When the princesses receive word of a mysterious illness breaking out at an archaeological survey site in the Badlands, they send Twilight, Spike, and Starlight to investigate. They find a bizarre sequence of markers, signs, and hints left long before pony civilisation as they know it, leading the way to place long forgotten by history. Together, the ponies must uncover their meaning, before an ancient evil from a past not even remembered by ponies leaves its mark on the future.

There's usually two ways for a typical villain to go down: it’s either they’re defeated and slowly reformed or be defeated for good. Princess Twilight prefers the former and started a program whose goal is to reform Equestria's most irredeemable villains, one good deed at a time.

With Queen Chrysalis as its first subject, everything should be bound to go smoothly...right?

A group of pony radicals try to summon a demon to overthrow the princesses. Instead they got a human. They don't know what a human is.

[ Based off of Among Us. Made for fun! ]

Ever since Queen Chrysalis and her changeling army declared war on the Equestrian sector and region, ships began to find changelings raiding their crew by becoming their crewmates. Several ships were either successful in getting rid of the pests or lost to The Hive.

From what many survivors have seen, changelings will nab you when you are alone and wrap you in a cocoon that is practically indestructible, leaving you in a comatose state where they could drain not only your love but your life as well. You weren't dead, but you were considered gone for good. At least until somepony can figure out a way to break them open.

The ponies began figuring out ways to get rid of the suspected changelings. One was shooting them out an airlock when the majority was certain it was them. From what they've seen, many will drop their disguise once out in space to hopefully be found by a Hive ship. If a fellow Crewmate was ejected, they were still able to survive with the help of their oxygen tanks and signal for an Equestrian ship.

It was the only safest option Equestrians really had.

One member in particular, an electrician by the name Derpy Hooves, has gone through this ejection process many times before. Being clumsy and hesitant, she became a suspect for many meetings. She wasn't sure if she should be relieved or horrified because there were a few times where she was ejected and the ship behind her was then lost to The Hive.

They say ejection wasn't good because it could be your demise one day, but maybe it was for her.

Despite everything, she still worked for her Princesses and continued hopping from ship to ship. She wasn't the best at her tasks, but hopefully she was the best at making friends! Maybe, just maybe, her next crewmates will be much more nicer. Maybe even permanent.

As she joined the new crew onto The Skeld a report suddenly appeared. A strange anomaly had been detected.

There are two changelings among us.
