Set only a week after the banishment of Princess Luna to the moon, the realm of Equestria is in a state of upheaval. Celestia's royal guard attempt to regain control over the vast empire once ruled by dual monarchs, and the young alicorn's actions as a ruler have become a subject of scrutiny after her sister's attempted coup. Two factions have risen in the turmoil: The Knights of the Sun and The Bright Moon.

Far away from the political infighting and sword rattling exists a small mining town on the outskirts of Equestrian territory. Where once the royal guard would have no trouble fending off raids from bandits or other criminals, the panic of the capitol has caused a withdrawal of military forces to more essential cities and trading ports. Completely undefended and without a spell or sword amongst them, this town was soon overrun by a band of bi-pedal canines calling themselves the Diamond Dogs. As brutal as they are lazy, the Diamond Dogs have forced the local population to work until collapse to collect gems from the town mine.

Outraged by his inability to fend off these bandits and thieves, a young unicorn named Bone Marrow tries with all of his might to find his purpose in life - his cutie mark - and hopes that it will be enough to drive off the invaders of his home. He will soon discover that his special talent is far more than he bargained for.

((A Sequel will begin for this story as soon as I finish I Am a Pet Changeling. Stay tuned on Discord! https://discord.gg/nDXd3AB ))

H-883 never liked his job in the droid army but is going to Equestria any better?

I would just like to credit my pals
Deeed22 Who has provided some ideas and quality control (mostly making sure I dont post anything too cringy)
Traintrackstonowhere Who has provided much moral support.
And Admari just because he helped me get started writing in the first place! Thanks all!

When Spike starts exhibiting symptoms of drug use, it's time for Twilight Sparkle (and her M.A.R.E. pamphlets) to stage an intervention.

If only Spike's drug use was Twilight's biggest problem.

A silly little stoner-holiday dramedy. Happy 420, yo.

Written for the "Rising From The Ashes" Writeoff based on this picture. (dude spoilers lol) "Praise" from fellow participants:

"competently executed" - Posh
"kind of funny" - Titanium Dragon [reviewed here]
"Mid-tier" - Fenton

Recommended by Present Perfect! "Trust horizon to turn a drug comedy into something that connected with me in an unexpected way. ... well written and has a great running gag." no pp what r u doin ur sposed to hate it D:

Sunset Shimmer, after her fall, is skipping class. Ignoring and being ignored by everyone. Attention comes from the most unlikely of places and perhaps an unlikely friendship is formed.
--

Written as a little love-song to my way, way overkill Teenset Shimmer and Teenlight Sparkle "series".
These are events that happens before "Teenset Shimmer Gets Wasted In Her Room While Listening To Nirvana" So I suppose it is some kind of prequel.
Started out as a bit of feel-good stoner nonsense, mercilessly thrusting my OC in everyone's face. Turned out a bit deeper, nature-romantic, still with a flair for the characters.

Contains light drug use.

Sometimes it's better to be judged by your actions rather than what you are; even if what you are is something never seen before.

But will actions be enough to overcome the fear of the unknown?

Transported to an unknown world for unknown reasons, one man will try to survive long enough to figure out if his lot in life has actually improved or if he was dealt another poor hand in the great game of life.

And considering where he came from, that would be saying a lot.

"TRAITOR!" he shouted.

FN-2187 is a traitor. And that was all he needed to know. Traitors were scum, traitors were and are a stain on the First Order, and Nines, hates traitors.

Nines knew he was always fated for something; yet he never knew what it was. Perhaps, after dying at the hands of that traitor and awakening in a new world, he would finally find his true purpose.

For years, Twilight Sparkle and Queen Chrysalis have been at each other's throats. Both have experienced victory over the other, and both have experienced defeat. Out of all the creatures in Equestria, none despise each other the way the pony Princess and changeling Queen do. They seemed destined to remain locked in battle forever, or at least until one is finally dead at the hooves of the other. The cruel insults, the vicious loathing, and the powerful spells that have passed back and forth between them at each meeting have become the stuff of legend.

Imagine Twilight's surprise when she finds out changelings consider this dating.

And now they're married.

Sequel: Pony Courtship Rituals

Some beautiful fanart of the end of chapter three was done by Dmann892; you can see it here.

More awesome fanart, this time from chapter one.

Now with a TvTropes page (obligatory TvTropes warning goes here).

If you want a Russian translation, you can find it here.

There is now a reading of the story on Youtube, which starts here.

To Admins: I am remaking this story. I didn't mean to submit it and can't get rid of the likes and dislikes even by unsubmitting it.
When a 17 year old named Jake dresses up like an evil sorcerer for a Halloween party, he makes the mistake of adding an evil-looking amulet of an alicorn. When he puts it on, he's magically transported to the land of Equestria. Several misunderstandings later, Jake, now known as "Zathrix", is marked public enemy number 1. This is his journal(though every once in a while I may have it as the actually seen).

Warning, this fic will suck, it is one of mine, so you should know this by now.

Also, swearing.

Inspired by Malideus by the genius known as Uberdeathninja and The Rise of Darth Vulcan by the mad man known as RealityCheck and this thing!!!!

Anyone know where I can get a good evil-sorcerer-king-kind pic?

The ONE time I actual try and get prereaders, editors, and other assorted help, I can't find it. WTF!?

One fateful morning, Princess Luna finds Celestia has turned into a megalomaniacal tyrant with one clear goal in mind: to be sent to the moon. She even has her bags packed and everything.

So what about this seems off?

Now with a youtube reading! HERE!
