"OH! That would be the Elements of Harmony! They're the neatest thing! We each get a jewel necklace--Twilight gets a sparkly tiara--and we used them to defeat Discord and Nightmare Moon with rainbows that go pewpewpew-!"

A clawed glove wrapped over Pinkie Pie's lips, silencing her.

"What does the pink one speak of, pony?" He demanded of Twilight, who sputtered at his question. "Do these 'Elements' hold the power to resurrect humanity?"

"I'm... not sure." She returned, halfheartedly. "They're pretty powerful..."

"Where are they?"

"In Canterlot, the city on the mountains, but-"

He dropped Pinkie and stomped off, leaving her to flop around her stretched-out lips. Twilight saw that he was going out the door and in the direction of the city she had mentioned.

"W-wait! Stop!" She galloped after him.

After the defeat of Discord, Princess Celestia sends the Mane 6 on a week long vacation. A mishap with a teleportation spell, however, lands them not at their vacation destination; but on Earth. How will they cope with being in a strange place, completely cut off from everything and everyone they know? Will they ever be able to get back? Read to find out.

Not all tags are used straight away. Inspiration for this fic comes from stories such as: Xenophilia (and related offshoots) as well as others like: But, She's a Pony! (All credit for those stories go to their respective authors.)

Edit: I have started revising the current chapters to get rid of a lot of errors and make everything flow better. Re-reading will not be required as the basic ideas will not change. I will begin publishing new chapters once I'm done with this.

Fluttershy thought she would like her job, but years of drudgery and abuse have slowly broken her spirit. That changes when she is sent to the tropics to escort a rare bird to its owner. Unknown to her, danger lurks behind the blue seas and sandy beaches. Fluttershy may have been betrayed, abandoned, and kidnapped by pirates, yet she's never felt more free.

A crossover with Black Lagoon

This is pretty much a self-insert, mostly done for comedic purposes.
After a mishap with an invention of mine, a friend and I find ourselves in the magical land of Equestria. How will the peaceful land of Equestria handle the influx of two humans? Will Jay and I ever find a way back home? Will anyone give this story a fair shot? Read and find out.
Things that actually involve MLP:FiM begin in the second chapter.

What if there was another pony who joined the pony gang? An actual male who at first seemed worthless? Will his actions, even presence, affect the choices and outcomes of the pony gang? Will different relationships form? That's for him to find out...

(Remake of the FIM series)

An inventor with an odd specialty in gears and cogs teleports himself to Equestria many years after Earth is ravaged by death and decay from a nuclear armageddon. He then proceeds to muddle things up with his fancy mathematics and twisted morals.

Submitting to trials, tribulations, lies, misunderstanding, and pain. And all these things for one purpose. To Befriend the Night.

Sequel out now: To Swoon the Stars

The sequel to An American Dude in Equestria

Years after returning to Earth, the human finds himself once again brought to the ponies' world. This time, however, his friends don't recognize him and their adventures are dictated and observed by Discord himself. Deception, pain, absurdity, and tension abound.

A botched spell brings a human into the land of ponies. Could this possibly lead to offbeat hijinks? Read on to find out.

Note that this story and all subsequent parts takes place between the first and second seasons of the show.

Derpy Hooves is secretly a changeling.

Nopony particularly notices, or cares.
