In the wake of the interrupted wedding of Princess Cadence and Shining Armor, the Royal Guard went on a changeling hunt, fanning out throughout Equestria to find any changelings living amongst ponykind. The captured changelings have been confined to a guard barracks in Canterlot.

Meanwhile Princess Celestia is finding herself swamped with petitions from ponies across Equestria asking for amnesty for their changeling friends, colleagues, and lovers. Princess Luna, who has been itching to regain some responsibility since her return, offers to take on the petitioners... and the changelings.

A new stallion moves to Ponyville, but it's clear from his interactions with the townsfolk that something is constantly bothering him. Twilight Sparkle decides to befriend the new pony and try to help him forget the pain of his past in whatever way she can, but the specter of war can add unexpected complications to any plan.

This story is on its second major revision, and there are a few things I want to clarify about it. First, the OC is NOT supposed to be based solely on me, and none of the events in the story ever actually occurred. Events in my life have influenced the story, and the story and characters represent my emotions, but it is not my intention to "ponify" myself in this story nor am I attempting to chronicle any part of my life. I went into a bit more detail about my changing focus and such in a blog that I encourage everyone who knows me IRL or who has followed this story for a while now to skim quickly so as to minimize confusion.

My thanks to thedarkprep for encouraging me to start writing this instead of just talking about doing it!

Twilight was on her way home from a visit with Zecora when she is attacked by manticores and saved by a strange pony who claims to be a hermit. if he prefers solitude, then why did he save her, and what is he hiding? Can Twilight and her friends show him the magic of friendship and get him to open up, or is his past too painful to reveal?

Note: Read this first!

Spark Storm is a pegasus that can't fly. During the first ten years of his life, he will discover things about himself, some things he desperately wants to know, and some things he wished he hadn't found out. Along the way, he meets five of the mane 6 in their school days, makes many friends, and makes some lifelong enemies.
Dark rating for death in final chapter.

This story is a sequel to A Colt Once Forgotten

Their mission was to drop into Pakistan and retrieve a CIA asset, a quick in-and-out rescue op. But the op was more than a little odd; communication with command was immediately lost, a cloud bank appeared seemingly from nowhere, and the CIA lost its people in even an shadier way than usual. Pararescuemen Jack "Frost" McDaniel and Harris "Duke" Sky will soon learn that there is a lot more happening in this not-so-simple rescue operation than anyone could ever have known.

All of his life, Singer Case has been different from most colts. Often looked down upon for various reasons and/or getting made fun of and called a loser. Through it all he goes along with his friends and the ponies he cares about as he toughs it through bullies, family problems and career struggles. Join Singer, as he searches for the place where he belongs, searching his heart for the paths he needs to take in life and where his true home lies.

What happens when The Mane Six play against human gamers? Well, join them as they face off in a variety of game modes and try to virtually demolish one another from CoD 4 to CoD Advanced Warfare! Who will win? Who will lose?

How can ponies use controllers?!

I have no idea, but there will be a lot of raging. And a variety of killstreaks..

(Special thanks to Robert Bowling for this idea, and David Vondehaar for the motivation.)

Everyone's favorite musical pairing is back in another fanfic! Octavia and Vinyl are now room-mates, and are like any other couple...but how will they react when they discover there's another about to show up?

Ripped from a home most frightening and dangerous and plonked into the middle of Trottingham might seem like a dream, but... Leaving home behind is never easy; and when you're from a world where you are nothing like those who are now around you... well, let's just say that adjustment isn't easy either.

*Will eventually feature both Princesses, possibly one of the Mane six.*

Stalwart Drone has been a Night Guard for a little over two years, and now he's being reassigned to the Crystal Empire, forced to leave his home and his talent behind only to have to readjust to living up in the frozen north.

Ruby Swift, conversely, has been in Equestria for most of her life, and recently she's taken a... darker look on life.

Forced to live in the same house as one another, the unlikely duo are going to have to live with what they fear.
At least, for now anyway.
