This story is a sequel to What I've Become

It is highly recommended that you read What I've Become before you read this story, since this is the second story in The Humanity Within Trilogy, and you will be lost if you just plunge into this without any preparation.

Also, this story already has a sequel: What I Am!

Things have been turning up roses for me lately. I'm no longer fighting to survive, I have people that I can turn to, and I have my face back, all because of the kindness shown to me by strangers.
But will they continue to help me once they find out what dark secrets haunt my past? Will they shun me for the evil deeds that my abductors forced me to do while I was in their service? Will they continue to protect me from the monsters that destroyed my life, once they realize what kind of monster I really am?

Jim Brody is not what you would call a "ladies man". He's short, balding, kinda chubby, and overall unappealing to women. Yet despite this, he's managed to earn the friendship of the lovely Coco Pommel. A mare who he feels is far too good for him.

Daniel Habbuck, UN ambassador to Equestria, hates his job.

Sure it pays well, but it's hardly worth having to put up with flank-kissing politicians and the stomach twisting anxiety of knowing that he represents all of humanity.
One night, after a particularly tense meeting leaves him wound up, Daniel is desperate for somepony to talk to. With his friends either busy or too far away, he hires a batpony prostitute, just so he can have some company.

As he soon learns, there's much more to this streetwalker than meets the eye...

Rated T for sexual references, but no clop.

(2nd Person Story Starring You – A Human & Pinkie Pie)

What starts out as a peaceful morning is quickly shattered. You happen upon a human that's a new arrival to Ponyville and much to your horror, you witness him attack Pinkie Pie! Wasting no time, you quickly go to her aid, and in the process of helping her, you discover you're more of a friend to Pinkie than you ever realized.

Note - I've had a Pinkie Pie project in the works for some time now and have been wanting to do a story about her. A friend of mine told me about an anti-cuddle fic starring Pinkie Pie. After reading it, I was inspired to write this story. This also doubles as somewhat of an intro to the story I'm still planning about Pinkie Pie and a human. If this has a positive response, I will definitely look into making the story a reality. Just keep in mind, unlike this one, the actual story will be a mature romance. And, while this one may be lacking back story details, the main story will help take care of that issue.

Rated: Teen (as a precaution)

One lonely night, Vinyl decides to use her old two-way radio to relieve the tedium. In doing so, she stumbles upon the voice of 'Adi,' who has a story so crazy Vinyl isn't willing to believe it.

But Adi is desperate, so desperate that Vinyl knows something really is wrong. Can her words help Adi overcome whatever is really happening? Even if she can instill hope in this stranger, is hope worth anything against seemingly insurmountable odds?

All Vinyl can do is sit before her radio and talk. Perhaps it will be enough.

Corey has a very simple job, make, fit, and maintain horseshoes. business is good but unfortunately for him his customers find these great chances to chat and gossip.

(2nd Person Story Starring You (a human) and Princess Luna)

After enjoying the Nightmare Night celebration, you and Luna decide to take a little break. Leaving the festivities, you both venture just outside of Ponyville, and share some cuddling and playful frolicking.

Author's Note:
This is just a little something I came up with in honor of Nightmare Night. I decided to write for a little over an hour using the prompt "Under the Full Moon" and see what I could come up with. This is the result. It's probably not that good, but I wanted to challenge myself with something new. Oh, and get this, there is no clop or love scene in this. But this story did warrant a Teen rating! ~_^ Enjoy!

My name’s Marcus. Marcus Cortez. I’m currently a freshman at CUFTA. You don’t know what that means? Well, it stands for “Canterlot University for the Arts.” While it is a little unsettling to go to college in a completely different world from my own, and while being a human in a school full of mostly ponies is a little intimidating, I’m doing fine so far. I don’t have to worry about roommates, since I don’t live in a dorm. I live with my aunt.

Her name is Celestia. Princess Celestia.

You’re probably wondering how a human could be the nephew of a pony, and an alicorn princess, no less. Well, it’s quite the story.

In case you haven't guessed yet this is an anthro story, and my first time writing a story in first person, so we'll see how this goes.

The prologue for this story starts sixteen years prior to the return of Nightmare Moon and the story's main events take place after Season 3 ends.

Everyone has their circle of friends in college. Mine is relatively small. There's me, Noah, an Astronomy major. There's Klaus, a griffon, and a Game Design major. There's Maud, an earth pony, and a Geology major...

and then there's Nightshade.

She's a transfer student from Equestria, and the most recent member of our circle. Klaus, Maud and I have known her for three months, and she's adjusted nicely to life in Florida. We all consider her to be a close friend, and she seems to feel the same way about us.

But as much as we'd all like to think that we know everything about our best friends, sometimes that isn't the case.

This is an HiE/Anthro story where humans and ponies have been in contact for fifteen years, and takes place after Season 3, but in an alternate timeline from Season 4. The story takes place on Earth, and because I know someone will ask: THIS IS NOT RELATED TO ANY OF MY PREVIOUS STORIES.

Cory's a human transfer student at Canterlot University. His parents pay all of his school expenses while he pays for food and living expenses. He's got a decent job and he splits his bills with his roommate, so he's living relatively well. The only problem is that he doesn't know what to do with his life. He's meant for something more, he knows it, but he can't figure out what it is.

Fleetfoot is a member of the elite flying team, the Wonderbolts. She isn't as popular as Spitfire and Soarin, but she doesn't mind that one bit. She loves being a Wonderbolt, she really does, but she feels like something's missing.

When these two cross paths, will they hit it off? If they do, will it even last?

Supporting characters include Spitfire, Soarin, and Gaffer from the MLP comics.

NOTE BEFORE READING: This story takes place within the same universal context as my previous story, in which the human and pony worlds have been in contact with each other for a few years.
