Current description is outdated and horrible. Thank you for your patience while I figure out one that actually does this story justice.

Note: I think this story works better if read without the long synopsis. The sex and gore tag refers to light content of both. Think summer-blockbuster.

The story is a HIE with post-cyberpunk in the mix, and most of the human main characters are full-body cyborgs meant to look like MLP:FIM characters. If this is enough to grab your interest, then please skip the below text.

It is the year 2310 and trans-humanism is within the grasp of anybody that cares for it...

The public responded with "Eww..."

Even so, life and technology marches on.

Such as in the Pheidippides, humanities first try at a manned starship with a range outside our solar-system.

But not all see it as a glorious day. The Ludz, a neo-luddite terrorist group is howling for blood...

And that was before Captain Gregory starts recruiting heavily among the transhuman community.

The response, sabotage of the experimental engines.

Now, stuck in orbit above a world that shouldn't exist, in a ship that barely is holding together and most of his crew dead or wounded...

How exactly do you perform first contact... when your experts looks like bad imitations of the heroes of the land?

The other character tag refers to: Shining Armor, Cadance, Luna and Celestia.

A human and Princess Celestia wake up in bed together with head-splitting hangovers. They have no idea what happened the previous night, and they're not sure they want to know.

This is a stupid fic, but I had a ton of fun writing it. 'Fraid it'll only be two chapters long though.

After an alarming trip through a black hole in his fridge, Nigel M. Chalmers finds himself in a colourful peaceful country populated with a throng of friendly ponies... in the body of one of their nation's worst enemies. Of course it all goes to pot.

Follow him as he attempts to make sense of his new body, makes new friends and maybe even finds love...
Or not, after all this is Nigel we're talking about, all he's probably going to do is insult everyone and drive everyone insane.

Follow the gripping tale of action, comedy and romance.

Will Nigel make it back home in time for the office Christmas party? Will he avoid a painful death at the hooves of multi-coloured Equines? Will he finally be re-united with his beloved cheesecake?

You can only find out by reading this fic, so fasten your seatbelts and prepare to get wrecked.

Edit: Well, someone did a great reading of the first chapter, thanks to KaBar41 for the reading.
The Reading of Chapter One

I wrote this fic as a side project to Nigel M Chalmers, Emperor and saviour-or-destroyer to try my hand at a transformation story. To all of you who hate the whole "Turned into a pony and makes friends with everyone" I'm going to shatter your misgivings like 300 kilograms of armoured Biped smashes a window. There will be violence in later chapters but for now it's just pure comedy.

The Princesses find an alien creature barely clinging to life at the scene of a terrifying crash. Can the Combined Power of the Elements of Harmony save it, or more importantly, should they save it? Will the arrival of this strange creature tear Equestria apart?

The time has come, and Chrysalis has made her stand against Equestria as a whole. On the brink of extinction and fueled by rage, Celestia uses an unlikely weapon, with an unlikely hero to save her kingdom from absolute destruction. The cost? More than she could have predicted. The story starts out with the fallout, then Luna recalls what truly happened from that fateful night to the final battle.

This BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE cover art was done by a VERY gifted artist and author named Moonlight Mare, if you haven't seen her work, you need to go give her some love. Seriously. This is the exact image I wanted, and holy cow is it perfect! <3

TVTropes page yay!A human arrives with a house in Ponyville. The Mane Six, and Princess Luna must deal with this new arrival. But not everyone agrees how it should be handled, not everyone agrees on what danger it represents, or the benefit it can be to Equestria.

The inhabitant must also deal with the new rules and conventions of this new world it knows nothing about, as well as the mystery of its appearance, and the incongruities of its arrival.
TVTropes page yay!

He was an average man in nearly every sense of the term, but his entire life is flipped upside-down when a push for a paycheck turns into something unexpected...something much more. Marooned on an alien world with no known way home, how will he survive a potentially-hostile environment? Afraid, ignorant, and alone, he will be forced to adapt and survive, or seek out help.

Rated T for strong language, use of alcohol, violence, and suggestive situations.

A/N: Yes, there is romance in this story. No, I'm not referring to one-sided romances. Instead, most of the story is going to show the developing relationships between Jamie and those close to him, and you'll join him as he slowly and painstakingly overcomes a lifetime of human culture and morals.

Twilight and her friends pay a brief visit to another world. But upon their return home, they bring with them a creature; tall, bipedal, and almost dead from liver failure. It calls itself Krager, and it has very good reasons not to want to return to the world that it came from.

But Krager is not the last to cross between the worlds...

A crossover with David Eddings' excellent series, The Elenium. It should not be necessary to have read that series to appreciate this story (but those who have read the series might be able to pick up on some of the foreshadowing more easily).

This story will contain spoilers for the Elenium and its sequel, the Tamuli.

Every schoolfilly has heard of the Federation - the tall, mysterious, magicless beings from another world, who visit only rarely and briefly; waiting, they say, for 'stable planetary political unity'.

This is the story of when they first visited Equestria; of early contact between the Princesses and the Federation. It is also the tale of how Princess Luna, with some help from the House of Sparkle, managed the first fully Equestrian warp jump; and of how Spike became the first dragon in space.

--------------

Additional note: There is an alternate ending for this story, which can be found over here. It follows on directly after the chapter titled Further Communications (and there is a note in the author's notes for that chapter to that effect, with another link).

The reasons for the split are contained in the comments to this story. (Note: Said reasons contain spoilers)

Ponykind has many legends.

They tell of terrifying monsters, fearsome beats, and crippling illnesses. The Mare in the Moon, Daring Do and Ahuizotl... They are all based on realty, though some are more fanciful than others. Ponies everywhere enjoying re-telling them to friends over a mug of cider, or to young fillies too restless to fall asleep. Still, one story is rather taboo in Ponyville. It tells of a sickness that cannot be cured. The reason only brave colts whisper it to each other in dark alleyways is because it is too close to home. The sickness has visited Ponyville before.

The Apple Family is all-too-familiar with this sickness, known too many as the dark plague. Several years ago, many ponies died in a deadly epidemic. The Ponyville chapter of the Apples was very nearly disbanded by the fearsome killer, and it still managed to orphan Big Macintosh and Applejack. Now, old nightmares are rising from the black pits of the past. Applejack, the bearer of Honesty and most dependable pony around, has fallen ill. Though few realize it, she is in very grave danger. No pony magic can cure the dark plague.

Desperate to keep her family together, Apple Bloom and her friends have vanished into the Everfree Forest, to seek the aid of a herbalist. Perhaps the skills of a zebra can save her sister. What they do not know is that there is but one race that can stop the Plague. A race that is only spoken of in legend and myth. A race that has not been seen since Princess Celestia was but a filly...
