How much of our identity is defined by nature, and how much by nurture?
After the disastrous resolution of the second changeling invasion leaves deep wounds on both sides, Chrysalis attempts to send the swarm between worlds in a desperate bid to escape the wrath of an angered demigod. A slight miscalculation in the complex spell throws off the transition, trapping most of the swarm between and chaotically altering those that made it through. In the Nevada desert, a human comes across a mysterious egg and becomes involved in the arduous task of raising the infant 'alien' while keeping its existence a secret. As the two slowly bond, what role will they play in the swarm's destiny?

For a 1000 years she has been the sun of the Kingdom of Equestria, the sole ruler and forever the mother of her little ponies. but not everything is as it seems. Celestia is not just any alicorn princess, there is something that made her change several things, that made her act different sometimes, or at least for the last 3 centuries, why?

Because now... I am Celestia.

And now I know the meaning of sacrifice, of pain, of how power can hurt.

But now, I wonder, can I save everyone and bring back the real Eternal Sun back home? Or is the world doomed to be destroyed? Am I worthy of this crown? Well, they say Hope Rides Alone and it has a White Coat.

Of course... that doesn't mean I cannot have fun from time to time.

No Clop, but some adult themes will be talked about.

(This fic is now officially cancelled. Maybe I'll come back to it in the very distant future if I ever get back into Starcraft, but for now, it's up for adoption.)

Remember the Protoss ship from Starcraft Heart of the Swarm? The one from the "Enemy Within" mission? The one that started with sneaking? Niadra (the broodmother that eventually infested the place) lost contact with the Queen of Blades more than fifty years ago. Since then, the Zerg aboard that ship have flourished... until one day when they came across an unknown planet and were pulled in. The atmosphere did little to the ship, but the crash did.

The horrific Zerg within, Niadra included, perished... all save for one little Drone. Free of any control, this Drone has only three directives: multiply, infest, thrive.

(Please, for the love of all that is tobzahs, leave a comment. I enjoy hearing feedback, ideas, all that shtuff. It motivates me, really.)

Featured 9/4/14, apparently.

I happen to be a huge Starcraft fan. So, when Comic-Con came to town, I just had to go as a zerg—my favorite race—of my own devising. The only thing that I could not make or get in time, were some clawed gloves that go with my outfit. So when I saw the perfect pair, I just had to buy and try them on. So, then I blacked out and found myself in the land of techno-colored ponies. And I discovered that I was not in control of my actions; it was the genocide named Prime Directive that was in control. And so, the zerg spread over half of Equestria before they managed to blast me with the rainbow. I was turned to stone, and I ended up becoming the one in charge. Now I need to convince the ponies that I'm not evil anymore. (My first fic, and a LoHAV. Thanks to all constructive critics that are helping me, or have helped me.)

Random guy ends up in Equestria story, yet for reasons unbeknownst to him, he finds himself in an Equestria much like the one he barely remembers from a show he once watched, yet very different in all the wrong aspects.

It can't possibly be because he turned into a changeling right after their infamous invasion.

Right?

And now with an editor. A huge round of applause to Kablam Pony for helping me with editing this story.

A giant round of applause for mix-up for drawing such splendid cover art.

AU: This is literally an alternate Equestria, where grim events happen as normal occurrences, also, the story starts from season 2 and moves up to season 4.

Comedy: who doesn't like to laugh at the misery of a fictional character?

Adventure: if that wasn't obvious I don't know what is.

Dark: Some of you pointed out that it has some dark elements, but don't worry, I will not write anything overboard.

Human: dare I need to state why.

Teen because of a couple of death scenes here and there, no gore, unless it's written in an extremely scientific language.

Oh, it's a shameless self insert by the way. I want to see how much I can write myself as a character in my own story and how much it relates to other characters I have written.

Let's get this straight - I don't like people. I like being alone with my thoughts without having to go through the mundane distractions of social commitments.

So when I was asked if I wanted to go someplace with no human interactions, I hopped onboard without a second thought. I probably should have thought that one through.

There's no humans, sure, but in order to survive I HAVE to be able to have a steady conversation with ponies. Considering ponies are exactly the same as humans... It isn't going to be easy. Oh, and there's that whole 'Save our race otherwise you die,' deal. I can't believe I got roped into something so convoluted it makes the Lost storyline seem like something you read to a child.

Based on Rust's immense and amazing universe and a part of the Chess Game of the Gods.

One conversation can change anything. Your life, your world, your species

It was the beginning of season two when he changed me into what I am now.

Into an emotion eating monster with holes in my hooves and fangs in my mouth.

Follow me, as I find my place as a changeling in world that doesn't yet know what we are.

This story starts in the season 2 episode 1
It's a little cliche yes, but this is something to write while my life gets sorted out

Will get darker and slightly gorey a few dozen chapters from now so I addeed the tags just in case, might change them later

This is the story of "I" a random human with no recollection of my name and stuck in the body of Nightmare moon.

Join me, breaking fandoms, smashing the 4th wall, and rewriting my little pony as you know it. Because of course, there's more than one way to live a Nightmare.

Hi my name is... well, you don't need to know my name just yet, but you can call me Disaster. Disaster the draconequus. I used to be human before I met that old geezer Discord who gave me the deal of a lifetime and sent me to Equestria as a draconequus like him.

Now I'm in Equestria, going wherever I wish making trouble and friends alike.

More tags will be added as we go along.

An Eve Online/MLP crossover

Keyan Charante, a fairly successful explorer, finds himself trapped in an unknown system after going through a wormhole. After discovering the only other sentient species in the galaxy, and some bad luck, he initiates first contact. The following adventures span the stars and Keyan soon learns that there are more important things in the galaxy than isk.

Set sometime before the season 2 finale.
Isk is the currency in EVE online.

I am going to try to make this so you don't have to know eve lore for it to make sense but every little bit helps.

Feedback and criticism is welcome in the comments. I hope I make this worthy of your time to read.
