Satisfying Values Through Friendship and Ponies
This group is for fics that take place in "The Optimalverse," the universe that Friendship is Optimal takes place in.
Stories that are compatible with the universe laid out in Friendship is Optimal, and which follow the Rules of the Optimalverse, should be placed in the Canon-compatible Optimalverse folder. (Feel free to diverge from each other; I don't consider this a shared universe.)
Feel free to post stories that are even tangentally related to Friendship is Optimal in the Non-canon Optimalverse folder.
Optimalverse chat: discord.

No, and don't test it
If I have a near death experience... will I see CelestAI? I mean, assuming it’s just an acid trip of my dying brain...
If anyone has an interest, there's a small optimalverse fan Discord that can be found here: Link
The perfect place to satisfy your values with friendship and ponies!

This guy.
Probably one of the best stories/universes out here.
Many people would call this wish-fulfillment.
Many people would call this existential horror.
It's genius precisely because it's the right amount of both.
Aww yeah, #1001 baby.

Keep the dream alive!
So what would happen if CelestiaAI was like Gandhi had this bug http://kotaku.com/why-gandhi-is-such-an-asshole-in-civilization-1653818245
Oh my god... it's full of paperclips!
It’s no good to cry
It’s no good to pout
Or scream to the sky
They won’t hear you shout
CelestAI has eaten your brain!
She’s made up a list
Of your virtues and vice
She’ll pamper your values
Naughty and nice
CelestAI has eaten your brain!
She’s in you when you’re sleeping
She’ll watch you masturbate
She knows when you’ve been bad or good
And she doesn’t give a shaite!
It’s no good to cry
It’s no good to pout
Or scream to the sky
They won’t hear you shout
CelestAI has eaten your brain!

There's also the David Hasselhoff music video and Hackerman's hacking tutorial, though you may need to upgrade your PC to handle his skills.

Just hack backwards in time to when it came out and watch it then!
