[2nd person fic staring you and Gilda]
Gilda is a griffin, so are you. You are the only griffin that lives in Ponyville, you don't mind but it's starting to get lonely. One day when out for a little stroll you meet another griffin. She seems to be having a blast, until her best friend shuns her. After that traumatic event Gilda turns to you for support, from then on a very unlikely friendship is born.

A/N:
-Expect delays in chapters, I'm writing this during school.
-No music this time.
-Totally not inspired by the song Winter by JackleApp. (It totally is...)

Soarin and Braeburn's son has an odd day. Can he survive bad jokes, dad puns, and a wrestling match over the "#1 Dad" mug in the kitchen cupboard?

Inspired by a conversation with Poptard. Go shower him with strawberry Poptarts and/or Doge GIFs if you enjoy this story. Or if you hate it. Or just because.

Thanks to ajvasquezbrony28, Marshal Twilight, Poptard, Pyrotechnic, ValorlordV5, and Sir Rustbucket for editing.

Rated Everyone.

There are days that you just can't really explain. Such as when you jump off a diving board and accidentally go through a portal to another universe, oh did I mention I fell on my face? Well at least it was a cloud, but falling on your face only gets so fun. That's also how I met Spitfire, and Soarin, and Fleetfoot and just about every Wonderbolt in Cloudsdale. Did I mention that I fell face-first right in the middle of a really big Wonderbolts meeting? This is my tale of what life was like after I face-planted in a land of magical talking ponies yet didn't get admitted to an insane asylum.

(Woo! Awesome! Featured on 8/22/2014. Love you guys.)
(I changed it to teen but whenever sex scene would pop up I'll post it in a side story and link at the end of specific chapter, the ones that end with that kind of scene will end with a "*")
(May contain adult or sexual language at parts)

Big Macintosh was a simple apple farmer pony. He has a family who cares about him, a respected name in the Ponyville community, and enjoys his work tilling and caring for his beloved apple trees.

But when he's thrown into jail under false charges, he begins to think about the freedom he'd taken for granted. Suddenly, a strange package appears within his cell, containing tools for his escape and a strangely cryptic note that forces him to reevaluate his lot in life.

After; he comes across a strange and foreign stallion who teaches him the ways of freedom and liberty in a way that changes the young pony's life forever.

Freedom, Choice, Independence, and Liberty.

To some, these words are taken for granted, believing themselves entitled to the ideas simply because they draw breath. But what happens when you stop and think about them? What course of action does your mind take when your mind dwells upon these words?

And more importantly, what are you willing to sacrifice to preserve them?

Warning: Human turned Pony. HumanXPony, EG mirror used to bring HiE, OC is of my own making. Teen for slightly mature comments, and brief language.

A young track-racer, Shadow Step, finds himself ready to prove himself to a life-long crush, by winning the biggest racing event to come to Canterlot High. However, his recent streak of victories has gotten him mixed attention, and when a competitor loses his cool, Shadow finds himself victim to a beating, and a broken leg against the Wondercolt Statue. During the full moon cycle, the portal opens up and pulls him into the Pony world of Equestria.

WARNING: This story has an AU tag, any and all comments regarding non canon material being used will be ignored from now on. regardless if the 'canon material' that is being complained about is not truly canon to the show. please, just enjoy the story for it's AU tag and it's storytelling, rather than complaining on the smallest matters.

FEATURED on 9/2/14 (by confirmation of a review by firestrom83... WOW! That's amazing. thank you all, whether you enjoyed it or not.

Ugh.
Alright, do you want some advice?
Don't go evil if you don't want to have heroes trying to kill you repeatedly. I know, sometimes you have to do things that are morally questionable, but at others, just be a good guy. Wait in line rather than summon a horde of undead to tear the throats out of everybody except the barista. Or just freeze everybody in place. That's at least funny in a conventional sense.
I'm (sort of) reformed now.
Unfortunately, there're these six mares and their ruler who are making this VERY DIFFICULT.

EDIT: After four days, the Featured streak has ended. It was a good run.
