After a quite terrifying encounter in the Ursa Majors cave with Twilight Sparkle and her friends, Rarity awakens the day after feeling not too well, and steadily getting worse as the day drags on not realizing her body slowly succumbing to the effects of Vampirism.

Weird and unique creatures (Pokemon) start appearing all over Equestria, from Ponyville to Canterlot. The creatures seem friendly though.
Could the appearance of these creatures have something to do with the odd comet that popped up in the sky one night?

Note:I will add more character tags as the story progresses.
double note: thank you the myth for editing this, wuv you lots bro!
triple note: the story takes place before season 3.

Legions bow before him! His name is whispered in terrified awe by even the greatest of clans and all know that none among the Horned Rat's children are as favoured as the magnificent Greyseer Thanquol (according to him, at least). His latest plan is ready to come to fruition and the stupid elf-things will face the unmatched might of the skaven horde, led by the equally unmatched genius of Thanquol of course.

Obviously the original plan needed some alteration. He actually meant to come to this strange land full of filthy sunlight and cheerful equines, he did! It's all part of his plan, that's right, and everyone else is just too stupid to realise its genius. None understand the brilliant master plan an intellect of his caliber produced. Yes, Greyseer Thanquol will let these pony-things teach him their secret magic and when he has learned all he can, improved by skaven ingenuity, he will use it to enslave their kind and return to Skavenblight at the head of an army!

He just needs to decide whether Luna or Celestia will make a better mount from which to gloat. Oh, and work out how their "Friendship Magic" but it will be Thanquol's!

A Warhammer Fantasy crossover, obviously. ON HIATUS unlike I get the feels for writing it back.

An experiment that I'll update in bite-sized chapters written when I need to let off some steam by writing a short and simple piece that amuses me. And nothing amuses me like Thanquol.

Will add tags as they become valid.

When facing Twilight Sparkle, Nightmare Moon was given a choice: redemption or revenge. What if she had chosen the latter? A grim fate awaits Equestria, but in a time of greater strife and conflict, Discord's return is accelerated. While he expected to bring chaos, he did not anticipate that he would end the Longest Night and bring hope and joy back to the land.

Discord struggles to reconcile his nature with his desire for admiration. While Twilight's friends strive to carve a new life in the ever-shifting Equestria, she searches for Celestia, the only one who can bring harmony back to her lands. But Nightmare Moon also seeks her sister in a desperate attempt to find her place in the world. New dangers lurk in the wild and more threaten to fall over Equestria. Nightmare Moon's decision broke the balance of the world. Will Equestria ever turn to peace, or will the spiral of chaos and destruction be the end of everything?

(An alternate history, this story takes the universe established by the canon and explores one possible outcome if Princess Luna had not been redeemed.)

Comments contain huge spoilers. Walk softly.

Special thanks to my pre-readers, MmmandarinOrange and DarkmatterButterflies for keeping my head on, taking the journey of the story, and making it so much better than it would have been if I wrote it alone.

Spike had been instructed by his mentor Twilight Sparkle to stay away from his longtime crush, Rarity, but when he disobeys her and starts helping Rarity at her dress shop, they grow closer than ever. Eventually the truth will come out. Will he be rejected, or will Rarity return his feelings?
Sparity. Implied Dash/Fluttershy. Moody Teenage!Spike. Awkward!Twilight. (A lot of Mean!Twilight). Humanized!Everyone. Some sexual references (THANK YOU, Rainbow Dash, that's quite enough), some legal drinking. Set after the show, so everyone is quite a bit older.

A criminal. A monster. A murderer.

I am none of them.

I am all of them.

To take a path given to me by fate, or to take the path I wish to take? I have no compass to point me in the correct direction, and the unforgiving streets of Manehattan draw me no closer to choosing.

The music taunts me.

My mind haunts me.

These four extra metal limbs are my tools to escape both, yet keep me enchained in both.

I am Octavia, first chair cellist, and upstanding member of society.

I am Doctor Octave, criminal mastermind, ruled by only greed and hate.

I am neither. I am simply me.
(WIP Notice: Need some help with this. preferably someone who has more knowledge in the marvel universe )

While trying to take the other team's intel in the chasms of 2Fort, a cataclysmic event that is able to make members of both RED and BLU disappear, occurs. They wake up in a land unknown to them which appears to be completely inhabited by ponies, dogs, and other weird creatures. Will they continue to kill each other or will they learn to be temporary allies? Will they destroy Equestria or will they save it? Most importantly of all, will Rarity have enough hats?

Note: This is not a note, this is a warning of the spine-breaking and skull-melting hat collections and ridiculous moments in this story. You better pack some 50 year old popcorn, because you'll be eating jumper cables.

An optimistic asari archaeologist.
A turian ex-soldier with a dark past.
A bitter krogan mercenary.

Mutual benefit binds them together as they plunge into the depths of the Perseus Veil sector to find the motherlode of artifacts on an uncharted world, one year after the end of the Reaper War.

Three weeks after the changeling invasion, the citizens of Equestria, Gryphonia and all other countries of this planet learn that they are not alone in the universe.

No side will come out of this encounter unchanged. All actions have reactions, and all choices have consequences.

Crossover between the Mass Effect Universe and MLP.

I don't own either franchise.

However, the Destroy ending will also work for the purposes of this story.

How deep does a friendship go?

Does surpass the conventions and taboos of society?

Does it overpower the scorn of others?

For Twilight and Spike, this has always been the case; their deep bond formed under the watchful eye of Princess Celestia during their long years in Canterlot.

But for Rarity, a mare known for her superficial view of the world, this question has always remained open, until a chance encounter reveals a dreadful secret about Spike that could drive both him and Twilight from Ponyville.

Horrified beyond belief, and pushed to the very edge of her relationship with the two, Rarity will see exactly how far her friendship to a scatterbrained librarian and her reptilian assistant will take her.
