Tomorrow, you will die.
When the river of life promises to sweep you away
All you have left is to live for today.

There's a bug under my bed. Or at least I think it's a bug.

It says it needs to stay under there to hide.

I just hope it leaves soon. And doesn't eat me before then.

A man named Quill, someone who has fallen through the cracks of society, awakens on an island after his ship is destroyed by a freak storm in the middle of the ocean. However, rather than being a man, he is now a pegasus.

He doesn't think it's too much of a problem, actually.

I was just minding my business, but the curiosity that is my mind forced me to almost take part in an experiment that changed my life.

I didn't want to do this. Not at all. But they forced me to participate in their "top secret" experiment.

And now, I'm a freaking female pony standing on its hind legs! At least they said it'll wear off in 7 days. What could possibly go wrong?

Dreamer may have most ironic name in Ponyville. In spite of his moniker, the timid and tiny Earth Pony feels he has very little going for him, with every single one of his attempts to try and reach out to foals his age only miserably ending in repeated failure each and every time. And while there are a few select foals who actually do acknowledge his existence, they hardly help matters. Instead they only try their best at chipping away what little there is of his self-esteem every chance they get.

But that's all about to be turned on its head.

Everything changes for Dreamer when he ends up meeting a spunky, rainbow-haired Pegasus filly named Rainbow Dash, who’s visiting from out of town. Rainbow may be showy, she's definitely brash, and certainly smug, yet underneath all the attitude and bravado lies the heart of somepony much more compassionate: a warm-hearted, sweet girl with a surprisingly strong caring side.

It isn't long before the fantastic filly forms a unique friendship with Dreamer, despite the two ponies having little in common on the surface. With a bit of a push from his new friend, Dreamer's about to learn that he may be able to meet life head-on much more than he thought he previously could.

But she may find many unexpected allies.
