Upon her return to Ponyville, Applejack learns Big Macintosh crossdressed at the Sisterhooves Social to help his little sister Apple Bloom. Obviously, Applejack knows Mac's behavior doesn't mean he has gender issues. If anything, it just shows how much he cares for his little sister.

However, something else happened while Applejack was away that can't be so easily dismissed.

It's time to talk.

Written for The Writeoff Association's "Illusion of Choice" contest.

The name's Applejack. Canterlot, the capital of our kingdom was beset by a plague of changelings durin' a weddin'. Had it not been for Cadence and Shining sendin' them packin', we might all be changelings by now. Not long after, Princess Celestia ordered a stallion from every house to enlist for the counterattack against them. He served his kingdom, as did countless other colts, and he came back without a scratch on him. Or, so Ah thought...

For over a thousand years, Discord was trapped in stone. Some think that he was forced to watch the centuries go by while being powerless. This, however, is false. While he was completely aware, he also had access to all of his powers- he just couldn't leave the statue. So, he did what any chaos god does when bored: make more chaos and play god with the aftermath.

He was better at it than you might think.

And he enjoyed it more than he expected.

Now reformed, Discord decides to show his new friends/former enemies exactly what he did for the thousand years in stone. Or rather, all the tiny worlds he made. Along the way, the mane six shall discover more not only about Discord, not only about themselves, but also about the princesses themselves, and their mysterious past with Discord.

Gentlecolts and Mares, welcome to the Microverse of Chaos! Welcome to the Worlds of Discord!

Features Pre-Alicorn Twilight, Celestia and Luna in badass armor, Rainbow Dash with a Wing-Boner, Discord and the Sisters seeming friendly or like frenemies, a confused mane six, and much more.

Some worlds will be AU version of MLP, others will be ponified(or something similar) of other series, and more than a few will be their own thing.

Fluttershy loves her son, but it's been rough raising him. There are those who have always seen him as a threat. Who mock and make fun of him. They see him as nothing but an abomination.

It hurts her to know that there are ponies out there who do this to her son. It hurts even worse when one of those ponies was one of her friends.

***Warning: Spoilers in comments***

Adjustments made in the story due to some criticism that I've received. Hopefully it will help it a bit more :)

Discord isn't just a creature of chaos, he is chaos. Holding back such lawless magic may just be the end of him.

We had never meant for it to happen. It was all just for fun, maybe a few laughs. It was just a game after all... just a game...

Discord has lived for quite a long time. Centuries as a ruler, a millennium as a rock, years as a reformed draconequus, it all gets very tiring. A nap is exactly what he needs. But when you live forever, time loses its meaning, years pass in the blink of an eye, mortals come and go like mayflies. And that's fine.
After all, any being that is truly important will live forever. Discord would never associate with anything less.

The Lone Wanderer has been known as the man who shouldered the nightmares of every man, woman and child in the wasteland, so that they may live. But when the Wanderer was once again abducted by aliens, he found himself falling, quite literally, into a whole new wonderous world, untouched by the horrors of nuclear devastation.

He has been facing other people's nightmares constantly for almost a decade, it was high time he was allowed to wake up.

Meanwhile, the ponies of Equestria are baffled by a strange object that fell from the sky.

Fallout/FIM crossover. HiE. T for violence and some language.

Now with a TVTropes page!

Trades.
Stocks.
