Unpopular opinion: Queen Chrysalis was the single greatest changeling to ever be among the Hive. She was the Queen, the Mistress of Survival, a Goddess of Subterfuge, all till one faithful grub named Thorax spoke up.

Then everything came crashing down on his back.

An entry in the Lateverse

Twilight Sparkle is not a risk-taker. She prefers the same old books in the same old library drinking the same old tea with the same old ponies. And that's okay!
On one fateful night, however, Rainbow Dash drags Twilight out on an adventure! Her very first rave.
It turns out Twilight isn't the only one hiding in a corner at these things.

This fiction was written as part of a challenge to write a fic in 30 days: one chapter per day, 2k words per chapter (you can learn more about it here!). However, this fiction will still be undergoing edits now that the challenge has ended. It currently has many many typos and errors, as it is literally unedited and was largely typed on a cell phone with gratuitous autocorrect--no need to point this out to me, I am very aware!

The original version is being preserved in Google Docs. I'll likely be posting the links to the original docs in a blog post sometime soon!

Verris is an unremarkable person. A loner living in a city of millions. New York, Where he is but the tiniest cog in a global machine. Yet with a spirit that desires adventure. Desires to be like the heroes, generals and emperors of old. Alexander, Caesar, Genghis, All the great conquers of history, the statesmen who built empires, the kings who defied all odds. Yet in the modern world there is no opportunity for that besides in the comfort of vidoe games, stories, his imagination and the history books.

But fate has decided to give a blessing upon this unremakrable man. To give him one chance to do what he so often dreamed of. To conquer an empire. Yet fate is a cruel mistress, and Verris, would not be thrust into familiar territory of old history. Or even with humans.

(Inspired by playing Mount and Blade Bannerlord, Its a great game.)

In a moment of weakness, Chrysalis had more than a taste of Shining Armour's love. 11 months later, Twilight Sparkle finds herself a brand new niece by way of 'A small foal in a basket on my door step'.

After some pressure from her sister, Princess Luna decides to join up for a dating website in order to meet a nice pony and settle down. Who she finds, however, has more in common with her than you would think.

Teen for sexual themes and a bit of adult humour.

Contains a large portion of ridiculousness and shenanigans. Caution is advised.

My name used to be Joshua, I was someone who made cosplay props and sold them for a decent price.

At every convention I would go to to sell my items I would dress as some form of merchant from one game or another and primary sell items that that character was likely to carry, even if it was from a completely different game as long as it made sense that they would have it.

At the last convention I went to I decided that I would dress as Nox The Unfortunate from Wizard of Legend and therefor would only sell items that were cursed in the game they came from.

Now thanks to selling the wrong thing to the wrong person me and my entire stock are in a new world, I AM Nox The Unfortunate, all the items I have ever made are here with me and real, and the ones that were never cursed are now cursed.

The good thing? Every thing I sell has a warning on it so I can't get in trouble for selling cursed items for any price, and I do mean any price... You don't need your soul, right?

Apparently this got featured 8/28/19... What? How?

***Under Grand Revision***

Hello! My name is Arctic. When I was young I would always hear stories about this wondrous land filled with all sorts of love and achievements. Now I get to see for myself the life these strange ponies live and perhaps one day lead a collection of changelings over the sea to set up a sub-hive. After all, nothing goes better together than changelings and ponies.

Vladimir Korzhakov is a normal twenty-one year old guy living a less than exciting life. After moving from his home country of Russia at a young age, he has had a harsh childhood and an equally frustrating life as a young adult. Nowadays, he works a soul sucking job, has no-one to call friend, and his immediate family has long passed. He passes the time by watching cheap, lazy entertainment in his run-down apartment. Then one day something happens that will change his life forever. Whisked into a new world and a new body without any say otherwise, he is lost and confused. Can he adapt to his surroundings and forge a new path? Or will he be stuck dwelling on everything he has lost?

Nineteen-year-old Zen is a guy who is perfectly content with his life, despite his tendencies to be a little eccentric. However, thanks to some otherworldly intruder he's pulled to a world brimming with magic. Equestria, now as the Fighting-Steel Lucario.

Now, liberated from the mundanities of his life, Zen embarks on a fresh journey with a distinct goal in mind. As he grows accustomed to his new physique, his journey will ripple throughout the world, gradually altering his fate, but in the end, will he find a way back or will that change?

But what's with the gemstone?

A/N: 'Sex' tag due to references and jokes of the subject. The character becomes a Pokemon and has the abilities of one but that is as far as the 'Pokemon' side of things goes.

Featured 01/05/20! Thank you all so, so much!!

The war is finally over. We ponies have lost. Our plan to convert humanity into ponies has failed. Hundreds of thousands are dead. Homes destroyed. Our nation is shattered and near annihilation. All because we underestimated humanity and their refusal to become like us.

I alone now hold the fate of my people in my hooves against the humans who want nothing more than to destroy us for the so called atrocities we have committed against them. I've lost my friends one way or another. My family. My fellow Princesses.

I have but one duty and that is, reluctantly, to see that we are shown mercy.

I'm just afraid of the cost. Or what I will learn from this.

Based on The Conversion Bureau series.
