The Map of Friendship has summoned Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash and sends them on a quest to visit the far off Principality of Cervus, the homeland of the enigmatic deer species.

When they arrive it becomes rapidly evident why the map sent them there. They have never met a bigger race of cynical apathetic nihilists in all of their adventures. Now the three ponies have to do everything they can to help the deer cure their self-destructive tendencies.

Spoiler alert, it is one of the hardest friendship missions they have ever had.

After dying in a car crash, (or whatever generic Isekai opening best suits you) Johan finds himself in the magical world of Equestria. Of course, magic is subjective, especially considering that Johan doesn't seem to have it in the slightest.

Now he's stuck in a world he doesn't seem to belong in, while his friend starts to reap in the glory of being the main character. All the while, mysterious conspiracies centuries in the making start to flare up, as villains from the ancient past and the present seem to both be gunning for the poor deer.

As if it couldn't get any worse, apparently he's developing a voice in his head. Great for him.

After I save my consciousness in a computer, I live my life from then on. but then equestria is formed out of the former remains of earth.
(This story works off the theory that equestria is earth in the future.)
Act 1: Chapters 1-12
Act 2: 13-23
Act 3: 24-ongoing
Mini Act 1: 26-29
P.s. this story also involves a bit of romance.

Time has passed since the deer of Thicket successfully reclaimed their lands from Well-to-Do's encroaching 'progress'. Prince Bramble no longer calls his father 'papa', but he remains small in stature, both physically and —according to him— in regards to his royal standing.

Soon, the longest day of the year will dawn and with it, the deer will celebrate another Ambershine Festival. The prince was given charge of the event's preparations, but fears it to be a meager test apt for a buck weak of spirit. Little does he know that the coming disaster will test not only his resolve and that of his friends, but their ability to learn and to forgive.

"The trees bear witness to all that transpires, and their roots grow from all that we leave behind. Their memories, and ours, are petrified in amber. Let the morning cast a new light upon the past, and let us find in its glow the path to the future."

This story takes place an indeterminate amount of time after IDW's comic issues #27 and #28 (The Root of the Problem) and, though centered on Bramble, makes extensive use of original characters as well as some of my personal headcanon. I've never written fanfiction before (or really anything involving characters that didn't belong to me, hence the overreliance in original ones) and it's an entirely new genre for me. I hope that you enjoy it.

''In those days, nodeer really knew what to expect. Most suspected something was coming of course, but no one was quite sure what that something was, or how it would manifest itself. But the Hjortland meeting of 1008 was the first time plans were made, and it was those plans that ended up saving the Deer of Olenia from humiliation and destruction.'' ~ Lord Rushuo, The Last Lord, 1027

The year is 1008. Following a coup to remove the weak pretender king Johan Djavulen, the Goðar are in control of the Deer nation of Olenia. But simply exiling Johan is not enough to save Olenia, especially not with the looming threat to the north. Following visions by Seers across the country, Allsherjargoði Jurva, head of the Goðar, calls for a meeting of industrialists, Seers and generals, to assess the present and plan for the future.

Important: this takes place in the Equestria At War universe. Equestria At War is a mod for the grand strategy game Hearts of Iron IV, be sure to check out their Discord and Reddit if you're not familiar with it. They also have a group on this site: https://www.fimfiction.net/group/212917/equestria-at-war

Cover art: map and text made by me, portrait of Jurva done by MrScroup for EAW (top of the antlers done by me, as the original portrait didn't have those, and edited by DraconianHorizons, be sure to check his stuff out).

Rated T for adult themes such as war, the costs of industrialisation and light swearing.

Theodore Goobins was, by all accounts, a loser. Stayed cooped up in his house 24/7, rarely showered, had no social life, and was a total hermit. Terrified of social interaction, and the blood on his hands.

Though, he had one escape from his life of loathing and melancholic solitude. League of Legends. A game that he thoroughly enjoyed playing, but was only somewhat good at. But that didn't bother him much. He still had fun.

This was pretty much his life, until one fateful day he wins a special giveaway he didn't remember entering, earning him a flight out to an upcoming gaming convention!

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he had to take it. Social anxiety be damned. When he arrived, he soon found himself face to face with a rather eccentric cosplayer who donned the visage of the Merchant from resident evil 4, and knew more about Theodore than he liked.

Little did Theodore know, that this meeting would change the course of his life forever.

Five humans fell through the barrier between two worlds, straight into the clutches of King Sombra. Forced to drink from a mystical teapot, their bodies transformed into beasts he could use. With his helmets in place he now commands them:

The Yak with brutish strength, the Unicorn and his piercing spells, the Thestral who stalks the night battlefields, and the Dragon that rains down fire on those who oppose their Great King. All four now loyal soldiers.

But what of the fifth? What happened to the last human in the group and why does he not fight alongside the others?

Warnings:
- The death and gore tags relate to particular moments that are more implied than seen and described.
- Darker themes are usually in, but not exclusive to, the main story arcs.
- There is also minor talk of suicide in a very short part, so I have added the tag just to be safe.
- Contains themes regarding gender identity and dysphoria which play out over the course of the entire story.

As before, this may need to change rating from Teen to Mature.

Cover art is by the very talented Mix-up.

Um, apparently this made the featured list on January 15th 2020... Thank you all so much!

This is the home of the stories known as the Teapot Tales.
Side story arcs will be between the main arcs.
Side stories along with a second and third arc are already planned.

The war that engulfed the whole world had an incredible impact on the minds of all beings. However, it is difficult to argue with the fact that the war had the greatest impact on ordinary soldiers. Everyone has experienced a wide range of emotions. The euphoria of victory over an ancient enemy, fear for the future, blind confidence in the correctness of ideals and much more.

All these feelings require someone to come out. And what could be better than a song?

I am not very experienced in poetry, so I really appreciate any advice and comments.

As a young stallion cutting lumber deep in the Everfree Forest, Burnt Oak runs across a fawn looking for his parents and the two develop an unexpected friendship.
