There's a human in Equestria? Nopony can tell, because humans turn into ponies upon arrival. But for this human, the change is massive, and one that could scar her for life if she isn't properly prepared...

A series of events explaining the life and trials of a human child lost in a strange and unfamiliar world, and how she finally connects with her new home.

Teen for mild injuries

When a bag full of drawings falls from the sky onto Applejack's head, she wouldn't have expected an old secret Rainbow Dash had been keeping to be revealed, for her to lose a fight with a fridge, and for the two of them to open up to each other in more ways than one.

But that's only if Applejack stops being furious at her friend for lying. Again.

Contains AppleDash, and fridge warfare. Rated Teen for the mildest of strong words.

Applejack, despite having worked hard all week during the Autumn Harvest, is going on a two day delivery trip to Fillydelphia, leaving behind her family and her sleepy marefriend, Rainbow Dash. Just before leaving, however, she recieves dark tidings of a mysterious criminal bent on fruit larceny...

Of course, the trip won't go as planned.

Contains Appledash and cartoon villainy. Beware.

Ribbon Red is a gift-shop owner who doesn't get out much, and has a comfortable life selling his wares to ponies for their friends and family.

Rainbow Dash comes in with a special request: she wants to get Applejack the best gift ever, and she wants Ribbon's help in finding it.

Ribbon knows a lot about giving presents: He knows how to appreciate the value of a simple gift, the significance of a beautiful ornament... but above all, he knows that the most precious gifts come from the heart.

Contains AppleDash

When our protagonist awakens in the Everfree Forest, he is not alone. Transformed into a creature he once thought to be fictional, and accompanied by his close family he must find his way through this new land. Can he build a new life for them all in Equestria, and how will the ponies react to these strange creatures? Particularly when they find out about a certain TV show.

Zecora has chosen to live away from her kind and embrace the perils of the Everfree. Shad was born there, and has never know anything else. They both had learned to cope with life in the Outland, and then fate brought them together.

Twilight was doing the best she could to become a princess of which everypony could be proud. With only a few teensy little bouts of self-doubt, she was hitting the books like a pro, learning the ropes from the elder princesses, and easing into the job at a cautious, steady pace. Steady, that is, until a certain power-obsessed centaur threw all of her timetables and checklists into the air – along with most of her house.

So with T-wreck now back in the slammer, all she and Spike have to do is get used to living in a new house castle as well as cope with changed circumstances, responsibilities and expectations. Easy-peasy, right?

The events of this story happen in parallel to and intersect with events in Outland, although each story can be read independently.

Discord died saving Twilight Sparkle and in the process all of Equestria. Or that's what everypony thinks, until a strange egg is found at Sweet Apple Acres, and Princess Celestia says it's the egg of Discord reborn. As the Element Bearers prepare for his return, some ponies remember Discord's darker days. Forces long dormant awake, wishing the return of the rule of chaos, while others, equally old and secret, will stop at nothing to prevent Discord's rebirth! And then there's just one more thorny little question. Who in their right mind would want to adopt him anyway?

It's Villain's Day... a day Celestia and Luna have decided that would be one day where even the villains could feel like actual ponies, and not villains.

This story is a sequel to The return of Gabby Gums.

The impostor Gabby Gums has been stopped; however something even worse has happened. During their personal attempts to convince a pony named Jake to stop the stories, a tragic accident occurred. Applebloom ended up in a coma. Her friends feel obligated to save her and Zecora is more than willing to help.

Coverart is not my own and I do not claim it. You may find yourself confused if you skip the prequel story, or you may not. I recommend reading it first however.
