In an Equestria populated by humans of three tribes: the horned Magic Tribe, the winged Sky Tribe, and the powerful Earth Tribe, an anxious young Magic Tribesman finds himself transferring to the capital city's most prestigious school, Princess Celestia's Royal Academy for Gifted Youngsters. to begin a whole new life. There he meets a very particular group of girls, and his life takes a turn for the adventurous.

Life has been peaceful since the end of the last war, but with the Summer Sun Celebration nearing, how will Manic Masquerade and his new-found group of friends fare?

(Somewhat of an adaptation of canon, with nearly all elements remaining in some form, including spellcasting, Griffons, dragons, villains, and much more. The Mane Six and several others will be members of the core cast. Most shipping is yet to be decided)

Open Heart is a normal unicorn colt just like every other until his accident putting him in the hospital and disabling him for life. Now he has to transfer to school for disabled ponies and adjust to his new life there, as well as deal with all the gorgeous mares around him vying for his attention. Who will he end up with? You decide. Every chapter after the first will feature a path towards a different mare and you decide the one you want him to end up with. But be careful. You could end up with a different ending than you would expect...

He never wanted to be a part of anything illegal; even if he didn't have much love for ponies. He was just some guy. Some cynic that happened to live his life in Equestria, trying to live his day to day life in relative comfort and minimal contact with ponies. But through after some coaxing from his friends (read as blackmail) he was forced to attempt to steal the royal crowns from the palace and caught in the act. However, given a chance to redeem himself, the thief is offered the choice to become Princess Celestia's royal attendant.

With little other choice, this would be thief's life is turned on it's head. And now instead of a steady inconspicuous life, filled with ease and mediocrity, his life is now one of warmth, excitement, and a friendship that can only be forged once a thief begins honoring the sun.

As a stranger in a strange land, sometimes you need to get a different perspective to see how you might fit in. Jeremy gets his chance to see Equestria from the bottom up when he gets in trouble with the law. Ponies have such a happy, peaceful society that it's easy to forget that perfection doesn't exist, and there's always going to be misfits and the disenfranchised.

Our lovably grim Max Payne is sent on a one-way journey to Equestria via bullet express.

Pretty sure I can't fill it with metaphors like Max would, but I can sure as hay try!
Rated teen for light violence, swearing and alcohol/drug use. Occasionally dark.

A (hopefully) more comedic, lighter outlook on: Payne-full Realization -who beat me to it!

Okay, it is very psychologically dark! This is Max we're talking about.

It started as a normal Equestrian morning, but doesn't it always? The princesses are frightened, and in Ponyville, a creature from a forgotten race walks into town. His kind hasn't been seen in over a thousand years, but even then he's still far from what he appears to be.

Arc 1: The First Day

Author's Note: Hey guys! This is my first story, so constructive criticism is more than welcome. I'll take this moment to say that I own nothing but my main character, the plot, and a few surprises which will appear later. All other characters and linked music are NOT mine. A word on music. At times I might offer two links to a song. The first is the OFFICIAL version, the second is the closest approximation to how I feel it is sung in the story. Just warning you, because I know some people hate covers. This story is rated teen for occasional language, implied sex, and gruesome imagery (mostly late in the story and in flashbacks). Now with technical out of the way, I wish you all happy reading, and I hope you have fun.

Edit: Bug the writer! He writes faster when you do.

Tired of Luna's constant nagging, Celestia agrees to give internet dating a try. Using the website www.notforeveralone.com, Luna helps Celestia go on dates with potential immortal suitors. Shouldn't be too hard to find true love, right?

You can make a suggestion for any immortal across any manner of genre or fiction for Celestia to date next. Just make sure they're immortal for it to work.

Updates every Tuesday and Friday.

Guest chapters for immortals I have not covered are welcome, since I won't be able to write about every suggestion someone has. Note that all guest chapters are non-canon from the main story, so there is a bit of leeway to them. Talk to me over PM's for any further discussion.

Thanks to my editors The Ponytrician and Garnot for all their help!

A young man yearns to learn about his father - what brought him to a land so far from his own, how he came to love his mother, who was so different to him. One day, his mother gives him a book, so that he can learn both sides of his heritage.
His father is a human soldier by the name of Cenwulf, the first human to be admitted to the royal guards. And through what he reads, the boy learns some valuable lessons, and comes to appreciate all that his parents have done for him more than ever before.

A week away from finals, Jeremy falls asleep at the wheel and has what should have been a fatal accident. He discovers that he is one of a very small percentage of sentients in the universe. He is an immortal. He cannot die. As he struggles to accept his new place in the universe, he must figure out how he's going to begin his immortality... And where he'll go to spend it.

Note: This is a HiE story which spends much more time on characterization of the human. This will not be a 'brony in Equestria' story; it's a chance to explore fictional worlds through a very unique viewpoint.

A pony went through the worst, some think he is a monster but he is just a a lost soul trying to get his revenge. And another old mare's tale come true.
