A human stays among ponies, mystifying them with his odd traditions and customs. It will be five years before Celestia and Twilight can send him back to his homeworld. Until then, Twilight wants to study him and have him experience pony culture. These are their stories.

The last thing Specialist Odom remembered was falling asleep in the back of a truck bouncing along the dirt roads of Fort Carson's training areas. Thus, it was with great surprise that he found himself waking up in the middle of the forest with avian eyes staring at him in curiosity and fear.

On an alien world with alien languages, can Odom survive long enough to find out where he is? Or will he find himself turned into a gourmet meal for the local lord?

Or will they find another use for him?

A human finds himself in Equestria under very unpleasant circumstances with no explanation.
His reaction: get the heck out of Dodge and start a new life where Equestria and her ponies can't reach him.
But an alicorn's reach is long and the events which brought him here and his treatment in Canterlot are not so easily forgotten by those who did it. How does one say 'go away' to an immortal goddess?

Yay! Featured, thank you all.

Revised 08/31/14 for clarity and grammatical issues, no events changed. I am working on a sequel, but it will be from Fancy's POV.
P.S. Green is NOT Lyra. There are other green unicorns.

I don't know what vile force decided to dump me on this planet without the courtesy of letting me change out of my PJs, but he/she/it had less than benevolent intentions. I came to that conclusion the moment I woke up next next to an irritable, jumbo-sized bird of prey by the name of Gilda.

The good news is that human doesn't seem to be on the local diet, Gilda's family are far more docile than her, and there may just be a shot at seeing Earth again if this world's magic is to be trusted.

The bad? Said chance at getting home is far too interested in picking my brains apart or otherwise using me up for comfort. Then there’s the small matter of the many crushing, stabbing, and get-blown-to-bits, hazards associated with a world full of mythical creatures. Oh, did I mention that I was allergic to the natives?

Seriously, if this is the cosmos' idea of entertainment, something's gone terribly wrong.

Anonymous; the only human in Equestria, leads a mild-manner life as a simple grunt working for the Ponyville Natural History Museum. And boy, is he bored of it. The whimsy of living in Equestria has come and gone, and now it's just the same old-same old. But that all changes when the museum gets a hold of new exhibit: a draconequus statue. Surely nothing bad could possibly happen involving something like that. Right...?

A failed experiment.

Not exactly new for Twilight. But when the outcome brings forth its own science, the likes of which her nation hadn't even yet dared to hope for, the ponies of Equestria slowly realize that they're in for the adventure of a lifetime.

The problem is, they might just not be ready for the revolutions that technological advancement always brings.

And they're about to get hundreds of years of human science and advancements all at once.

As a forewarning, updates will likely be erratic. I have every intention of finishing this story, it's just that my life has been rather crazy lately as I'm sure many of you can imagine.

Also, if you are going to leave a thumbs down, please leave a comment detailing why. Thumbs downs don't tell me much, and I can't make the story better until people tell me what's wrong with it.
Thank you for your time.

When Jay figures out that there is a way for him to go to a world with humans, he jumps on the opportunity to get away from the ponies.

Things turn out not as he expected and he is not happy about it. At all.

Equestria Girls crossover, you have been warned.

TD, the human that first showed up in Equestria in No, I am NOT a Brony, GET ME OUTTA EQUESTRIA!!! is depressed that he's stuck in the world of ponies with no way home, but finds solace in helping Cheerilee teach her class. However, Cheerilee is sick with the flu one week, and that just happens to be the week that a teaching supervisor comes to the small Ponyville classroom. From the very beginning she has doubts that TD is a person fit to teach the future generations of Equestria. Should TD fail to meet her standards, he will not be allowed to teach them anymore.

Non canon in the Non-Bronyverse

Spike can't believe his own bad luck.

First, he was enrolled to Ponyville's elementary school. Second, Twilight won't realize that he already knows everything Cherilee will teach him. Third, he unintentionally becomes the point of interest of a certain tiara-wearing filly.

Yeah, this is gonna blow.

Set in the same universe as Bad Company and Xenophobia. You don't have to read any other stories from the 'Phobiaverse' to understand what's going on.

When a human’s house crash lands on the outskirts of Ponyville, nopony is quite sure how to react to this strange creature. With seemingly no way to return home to his own world, one young man must adjust to this strange new world, and the world must adjust to him.

Starts between Fall Weather Friends and Suited for Success.
