After ending up in Equestria, DJ Anonymous finds himself becoming friends with his Equestrian counterpart, the one and only Vinyl Scratch. After demonstrating human music, Anon is signed up to a label by the producer Tech Beat. He soon finds fame and fortune, and Vinyl is always by his side.

But when an incident at a gig leads to Vinyl making a startling revelation, Anon starts to struggle with his own feelings. And it'll take a little bit of divine intervention, as well as a ton of other advice, to make him realise what he really wants. It's just a shame Fate has other plans for him.

AUTHOR'S NOTES

This needs a rewrite.

Oh look, Geo is jumping on the AiE bandwagon!

I've always wanted to do an AiE, but I never really had a good idea. To Friend Is Human started out as an AiE, but I decided it would be better as a self-insert prose story. This idea came to me while I was listening to music and browsing the AiE threads on /mlp/. I figured that it would make a good story, so I wrote it.

Rated Teen for language and eventual sexual themes and violence.

Newly-together couple Vinyl Scratch and Octavia have just spent the night out on the town. Vinyl blasted their favourite nightclub with major wubbage while Octavia discovered a new drink at the bar. Now Vinyl has to escort home a marefriend more drunk than she's ever been, and in her intoxicated state, Octavia says just a little bit too much.

UPDATE 09/09/2023: Edited story to fit better with my current writing standard. Original unedited story here!

This story is a sequel to Scotchtavia

After a heavy night of drinking, most of which she can’t remember, Octavia awakens to a monstrous hangover. But even this isn’t enough to distract her from the obvious fact that Vinyl is acting… different. Kinder, sweeter, and much more considerate. Something happened last night, something that has clearly had a huge effect on Vinyl. But what could it possibly be?

After being betrayed by her friends during the Anon a Miss incident the darkness threatens to swallow up Sunset, but there are those who want to offer a helping hand and guide her in another direction. Will she take those offered hands, or will she let herself fall to the darkness forever?

Rarity had everything she ever thought she wanted. The recognition of the Canterlot high society, a booming career, and the love of a loyal and dashing prince.

Of course, none of those old dreams accounted for the prince being another mare. Not that there is anything wrong with that of course, but a proper mare does not go flaunting such things. That's just good manners.

Right?

Spiders and Magic: Rise of Spider-Mane

Anon and I have been friends for awhile now. We get along together and Dinky loves him to death. I feel very fortunate to have a friend like him. Its just, I have always liked Anon a little more than I probably should. He needs a friend right now, seeing as he just went through a bad break up.

Who am I kidding anyways. Who would want me? I'm just... damaged goods.

Anon has never been very good at making friends, especially with other girls. Sure, she likes doing some girly things, but a spa day isn't exactly her idea of fun. Still, in an attempt to forge new bonds, she ventures out with Rarity and Fluttershy to try to have fun.

Awkwardness, discomfort, and a lesson on human anatomy ensues, but will Anon still have her newfound friendship at the end of the day? Or is there something else bothering her rather than the usual shyness?

Warning: Not a usual Anonpencil wtf comedy.

Adam is a good friend of Princess Cadance, and has been for the past year.

But when the Crystal Princess finds her request for snuggles denied, her mind breaks and she quickly kidnaps him for nefarious reasons.

He never stood a chance.

When Luna asked Twilight for help adapting to the modern Equestrian language, Twilight was quick to agree. She was happy to call Luna her friend, but royal duties between the both of them typically dictated that their visits were few and far between, and any opportunity to see the Lunar diarch on a less formal basis was okay in her books. Helping Luna understand the convoluted idioms Equestrians love to create seemed like great fun anyway. She just... She hadn't expect Luna to be that out of date. Fortunately, Twilight's not a pony to back away from a challenge, and a vintage bottle of Manehattan Vintage Marelot is all the reinforcement she needs to enjoy giving the lessons and ignore the inevitable headaches to follow.

Originally written for the TwiLuna prompt collab, but I decided to expand it to its own story (also, the collab was dead).

Huge thanks goes out to my awesome proofreader Absolution for putting up with my shit and arguing with me over a lot of things. Even if we ended up not agreeing on most things, those discussions led to a lot of different changes which this story is very much the better for.
