Princesses have this bad tendency to make everything they touch shiny, new and boring. But still the Everfree Forest remained, and Scarlet Script was in need of inspiration. He needed something wild and untamed, something dangerous perhaps that he could write about.
His trip takes an unexpected turn when he is followed back to the hotel by a bat pony filly. Everything else is put on hold as he tries to help her find her parents, which may require the assistance of somepony who works at that School of Friendship he hates, or somepony closely related at least.
What he discovers is that the filly's predicament may be much more dangerous than anything he could have hoped for, and it's up to him to finish her story before it comes back to bite her, so to speak.

This story is a sequel to Forgiven

Loosely Based on The Fall of Sunset Shimmer

How did Equestria fall? Why did Twilight create the Unity Crystals? Why did the three pony tribes split in the first place after so many years of harmony? It all ties back to that one fatal mistake, the great oversight…the folly of the Princess of Friendship…the fall of her apprentice…the fall of Opaline. Luster Dawn has moved to Ponyville with a new group of friends, leaving Princess Twilight Sparkle alone to rule in her solace. The Council of Friendship have disbanded due the remaining Mane Six having all died in a tragic accident. Closing herself off from the realm she rules, Twilight feels like she no longer has a purpose in life without her friends.

On the fourteenth Festival of the Two Sisters, Twilight is persuaded to take on an apprentice once again and chooses to take on an idealistic, but lonely unicorn mare named Opaline Arcana, who idolizes her. Seeing the opportunity to right what she considers to be her greatest mistake, Twilight takes Opaline under her wing and trains her in the ways of friendship and magic.

However, when a devastating betrayal begins to lead Opaline down a tragic path to darkness, Twilight must make the ultimate sacrifice to save Equestria….

This is a spin on the "Spiderverse" movies but does not have any correlation with those films.

Rainbow Dash accidentally launches a Rainboom one morning to find herself in another version of Equestria. From there, she goes on an adventure, learning that hundreds of other Rainbow Dashes have banded together to try to stop one evil Rainbow Dash named Hurricane and other evil variants of herself from taking over the Multiverse. The Rainbow Dash we know makes friends with a Rodeo Star named Zap Apple and Rainbow Skies, a Griffon who was raised by Windy and Bow as if she were their daughter. As the trio trek through the multiverse, they soon discover a conspiracy that will force our Rainbow Dash to face the worst aspects of herself in more ways than one.

"To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be."
- Big Brain Engineer Man

Grand Admiral Jack Roberts, leader and commander of Redwood Industries, and his faithful crew, have been assigned to the special operations ship Tigris, as they have warped into an uncharted system after detecting an unknown signal and are ready to investigate, until they are lured into an ambush by remnant forces of the Green Drones. After barely fighting off their aggressors, the captain orders an emergency landing, which as with all of Jack's adventures, expectedly devolves into a crash landing, leaving the crew stranded.

Meanwhile, Aaron and his crew of engineers turned freelance explorers have come to investigate the signal as well, falling to the same trick and being ambushed, only to be saved by Captain Shack and his comrades W4stedspace and Morphologis, having made a desperate escape from the drone infested Planet Bob, only to find this new world, and soon learn they were followed.

Soon, every skilled and talented engineer team in the galaxy is flocking to Equestria for the signal, and as all the teams of space engineers are left stranded, they will encounter the planet's strange local lifeforms, forge alliances, work together to stop a looming danger, and save not just Equestria, but the entire galaxy!

Note: I do not own Space Engineers or My Little Pony. Captain Jack, LastStandGamers, and all the other space engineers youtubers I bring in here have their own youtube channels here. Also, this takes place after the events of Colony Salvage and before Starship Lost.

The planet Equus will be inhospitable in just a few short years. All the creatures on it are preparing to leave for greener pastures. All, that is, except Spitfire.

This fiction is canon compliant. It takes place several years after "The Last Problem".

And then suddenly, everything changed again. Only this time, it's not a man's doing - it's a mare's.
