Starlight Glimmer likes to overthink things. Love is probably not one of the things she should overthink. Or approach as a task. Thorax will be in her sights for the next few days, leaving her with the question if she can confront both of their feelings within that time, or handle his foal-like curiosity of the equestrian world.

||ON HIATUS||

The Multiverse. An immense and diverse place, home to countless Planes of existence, each a universe all their own. One organization tries its hardest to keep these Planes in line, and govern the nigh infinite souls that occupy them. But even with a galaxy's worth of agents and the power of the Prime Material Plane at their disposal, something occasionally slips their radar.

Sam is one of those things. An unassuming, twenty-something who one day finds himself stranded in another world. Luckily for him, the inhabitants of Equestria take friendship very seriously. The Elements of Harmony take it upon themselves to befriend and welcome him to Equestria. It certainly doesn't hurt that he's the first and only human ever seen on their planet.

However, all good things must come to an end. Equestria finds itself under attack, both by unknown creatures and beings similar to the country's newest inhabitant. Sam and the Elements must find a way to beat them back, but first they need to figure out who in the Nine Hells this new enemy is.

So begins my first HiE, let alone my first story to be published here. I hope it will be my longest piece to date (even if I never submitted most of my others). I have a long way to go before I can be a professional writer, but that's what this is all about, isn't it? Exercising our writing muscles in a place where some may find enjoyment in our attempts to improve ourselves. So please, lay into me. Tell me what I'm doing wrong, I implore you. It is the only way I will grow as a writer. And, if I can set aside my stubborn pride long enough to learn something, perhaps I will do just that.

Early chapters proofread by the wonderful McStuffins.

This story is a sequel to World of Ponies: The Pony-Human War

In the nine years since the end of the war between Equestria and the new nation the Empire of Man, the world has seen conflicts and change come and go. But in the highest reaches of the north, the Crystal Empire has stood largely unaffected by these changes. But now all has changed.

A terrible plague has struck the empire, and with it a dark threat begins its return.

Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures, and Finals Week at the University was about as desperate a time as Raindolph had ever experienced in his long and hard-fought battle to become a mage and master his erratic powers. With a long series of failing grades and broken lab equipment behind him, Raindolph is willing to risk it all to complete an impossible task and graduate, even if it is last in his class.

All he needs to complete his project is three tail hairs from an adult unicorn.

No problem.

Well…

Placed 24th in the Writeoff.me short with the prompt ‘The Morning After’. This is the expanded version before it was cut/chopped/mangled down to size for the competition, so it has a few more details than the entry.

And no, it’s not a Harry Potter crossover. Honest. Would I lie to you? More of an AugieDog Cluny the Squirrel Mage fanfic. Enjoy.

P.S. See, I told you I’d write a HiE fic someday, even if it is a short. Oh, the the picture is a TV remote control. Seriously, I've got to get one.

You know, there are nights in which you will get eight full hours of restful sleep, and there are nights in which you will be awoken by a sentient beige earth pony planting roses in your front lawn.
What kind of night do you think this story is about?

Sequel to Those Moments.

Spike led Thorax into the throne room of the Crystal Castle confident he could convince the others that the changeling could be trusted. That he meant no harm, and instead wanted to be an ally and live peacefully with them. That he could make them see Thorax for what he really was. That they could befriend the changeling and accept him as one of their own.

They didn't.

And consequences followed.

After being dragged into a Pinkie Pie party, gathering the Elements of Harmony, and facing off against Nightmare Moon, Twilight Sparkle just wants a good nights sleep. Unfortunately for her, she lives in Ponyville, and somepony just crashed into her bedroom. Somepony that looks unusually like her... albeit more stallion-ish.

This stallion, Dusk Shine, claims to be an older version of Twilight, from an alternate universe. How come he's so different? Twilight never graduated from Princess Celestia's tutorage or learned to play the guitar, or... befriended her monstrous, demonic self?

"I've been living my life under the weight of many regrets. There are countless sins in my past that I'll never be able to atone for, thousands of individuals who will never get to see the sunrise again due to my actions. The shame within me is great, but the flaming passion deep within my soul is far more powerful than you can ever imagine.

It's taking every ounce of concentration I have to resist the urge to reduce you to a pile of ash, Envy. I don't know how I ended up in this veritable hell, and I certainly don't know why you two are here with me, but I swear on whatever life I have left that I will protect this place, no matter the cost.

I don't care how many times I'll have to kill you, Envy. You'll die a thousand deaths before you lay a finger on the inhabitants of this world."

SYNOPSIS
The Cuite Mark Crusaders, with Applejack as their caretaker, head out on a train bound for Appleloosa, ending up in an eerie ghost town. Although things seem nice enough at first, it doesn't take long for the fillies to realize something is amiss. Applejack does her best to protect Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo, but the young fillies' curious nature gets the best of them. The Cutie Mark Crusaders become reluctant heroes as they slowly uncover the mystery shrouding the darkest corners of an ancient town called Happy Hollow.

Author's Note:
This is the first story I'm submitting to fimfiction and I personally thank you if you plan on taking the time to read it. I've been working on this story for some time now, and I plan on releasing new chapters as soon as possible. This particular story will consist of five chapters. This is the first work of prose that I've created involving ponies, although I do write a web comic called "Ask Crapplejack", which you may or may not have heard of. If you have seen it, you may know what to expect from my work. I can guarantee you this is going to be a fun ride if you wish to take it with me. Thanks again for taking the time to read this. I hope you like grimdark. - Devnul

Princess Celestia was caught red handed by her sister, using tax money to purchase more sweet treats for her growing size. Luna decided it was time to take action and banished Celestia from Canterlot for a month. Pretty embarrassing to be banished by your younger sibling.

Celestia didn't want to let her little ponies see her like this. So she seeks out a place to take refuge from the mobs of newsponies and embarrassment.

Anon was teleported to Equestria accidentally by Discord. He absolutely despised ponies and didn't give two shits about any of them.

What happens when an alicorn that controls the sun shows up at his door?

Randomness and weirdness ensues.

Sex tag is for lots of suggestive things. No banging though.
