The Mane-iac has a reason, a method to her madness, and one that will shock the Mane Si-er, the Power Ponies to their core.

Because it's not exactly evil, and aren't we all crazy when we're in love?

Every year, Prince Solaris of Equestria and Princess Celestia of Equestria have a dimensional meeting to discuss matters pertaining to both worlds. What happens during these meetings, nopony knows.

They each have a devoutly loyal Royal Guard who almost share the same name, Starry Sky and Celestial Sky, and both have problems with being around the opposite sex.

When they get word of this, they decide to fix this problem in their own way.

Based off of the 'A Broad Scope' comic short.

"Princess, why have you called for me so...um..."

"Urgently? Twilight, creatures of all sorts of strange and mythical power have started to find Equestria their home. But, ponies may panic due to their...appearances. And the creatures could too if they are disturbed. Twilight, you must record and study each of them. Protecting them is also a must. Who knows what they could do if they're angered."

"Wow...this is all a little sudden."

"Come, I'll discuss it to you."

Novel Tale is an author that's been living in Canterlot for about ten years now. That's a pretty good track record for a changeling. He's even included a changeling character in his latest book, and his fans have been loving his take on such an obscure mythological creature, especially his biggest fan, Twilight Sparkle. Things are looking up!

Then an army of changelings from another hive attacks Canterlot.

Now all of ponykind knows that changelings are real, and his readers are sure to realize that the changeling in his book was too similar to the real thing to have just been based on a myth...

earlier chapters have been revised as of 7/19/13 to be more inline quality wise with the later chapters.

Featured on EQD 10/5/13!

Let it be known that there will be extensive changeling world building in the chapters to come.

Much thanks to Nyerguds for proofreading and to all my fellow tropers on the TvTropes pony fanfiction thread for helping me develop this from a vague idea into an actual story.

After almost a month, your duet with Octavia still ends with a train wreck. The grey earth pony suggests that you go over to her house for extra practice. As you meet her at her house, something seems...odd about her, but you can't figure it out. [Tender]

UPDATE: Featured story on December 2nd, 2013!

Now with an audio reading by Scribbler. Check it out.

Bat Ponies have returned to Equestria following the return of Princess Luna from her 1000 year banishment.

While most of Equestria is slow to trust these strange night worshipping creatures, for one pony, it represents a perfect new avenue of study.

When a Bat Pony comes to live in Ponyville, Twilight jumps at the chance to ask him a few questions. What she didn't expect was the condition that came with those questions: That she let him take her out to dinner first.

Just a quick little story that kept on growing as it developed. The story was inspired by, and based off of a sketch image originally drawn by Jaxonian which was put up for adoption into a story.

Contains a small amount of blood towards the end of the story. Teen rating because of that.

I'm in a land I could only dream of... with only two problems, I'm apparently mute, and I have amnesia.

I'm rewriting this finally. I have been working on a more serious story and this one was more for getting past a writers block. I have been so busy these past months I haven't been able to work on both. Things have settled down though, and I will continue this story. Its going to be a bit nonsensical at times, but I don't plan on going overboard with it.

A big thank you to Vest on deviantart.com for allowing me to use his/her cover art.

As a stranger in a strange land, sometimes you need to get a different perspective to see how you might fit in. Jeremy gets his chance to see Equestria from the bottom up when he gets in trouble with the law. Ponies have such a happy, peaceful society that it's easy to forget that perfection doesn't exist, and there's always going to be misfits and the disenfranchised.

“It is said that no one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails. A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest ones.”

After Link played the wrong notes on his Ocarina when he wanted to teleport himself to the water temple, he is brought to Equestria instead. Now Celestia is stuck with a bipedal creature who can raise the sun and moon and change the weather by playing in his ocarina and has the worst pet ever: Navi.

"Humans.... Quite possibly the most infuriating mythical creatures in existence. If you ever have the 'luck' to meet a Human in your travels across Equestria, then you must be careful. Humans are extremely powerful creatures, some would say more so than Celestia or Luna, they are also more unpredictable than Discord. They can help you in a tight spot if you're lucky, or play nasty tricks on you if you don't hold the Human's favor. In my time I've seen a Human give a filly pounds upon pounds of gold, and the same one turn greedy ponies into gold. The only one I ever have seen 'face-to-face' was in my earlier years, he helped me repair my wagon when it broke down in Everfree Forest, by fix I mean a whole new one appeared not ten feet away, and the only thing the Human asked for in return was a spindle.... But be warned, never anger a Human, a trick or two in fair game is fine, but if you ever manage to truly anger a Human...... you'll be part of the small number ever to meet non-existence." - Star-Swirl the Bearded.

A silly nonsensical story, not to be taken seriously. Some chapters are not connected to others.
