Anonymous, a twenty-two years old musician, is somehow transported to Equestria. He must learn to adapt to this new world. Communication with the ponies will be hard, he doesn't speak the same language as they do.

The story will be centered around Anonymous' interactions with the Mane 6 and a few of the background ponies, notably Lyra and BonBon.

The first-ever background pony convention in Equestria is proud to welcome the famed A.K. "Daring" Yearling for the fan-fiction panel. Characters from all over the lands have come to speak of head-canon and receive tips from the author. But when a Unicorn brings in his fanfic, things kind of take a turn to the south...

AN: Written as a test-run for a series of segments revolving around an actual background pony convention. Criticism is welcomed, especially since I need to sharpen up on comedy.

Most Earth ponies know how to cook familiar foods, but what to do when they face the baffling array of frozen foods in a grocery store on Earth?

Candy Apples has that problem and reasons that other ponies would, as well. So why not start a cooking channel to help ponies and anybody else who wants to watch?

Her channel is more of a success than she could have ever imagined.

Why isn't there a tag for Candy Apples? She's the background mare you should be thinking about.

In the end, Christmas is a day like any other.

Unless your boyfriend is unlike any other.

Lyra Heartstrings wakes up early to the sound of thunking outside her door. When she answers it, she finds Vinyl Scratch trying to deliver her the wrong mail. What's even stranger, Vinyl had Derpy's cutie mark! All five of Lyra's friends have been cutie-switched. They're not themselves anymore. Lyra has to find a way to fix this mess!

Based on this post: http://magicalmysterymod.tumblr.com/post/44124806183/magicalmysterymod-au-with-the-mane-background the concept is all this person's!

Oh, and Octavia is a main character too, but I can only mark five characters and there is not 'mane six background ponies' one :(

Changing into a pony was one of those things I thought would never happen to me, like getting robbed or winning the lottery. I'm still waiting on the latter two, but the first... Well, it's not as awesome as it might have been, considering the circumstances.

Now I'm sharing a body with Lyra Heartstrings and I've got to find a way to get to New York. If something's going to go down, I'm going to be there for it. Nothing's going to stand in my way!

But it's strange, you know. The Lyra I got? Not really the Lyra I was expecting. What does it mean to be a background pony, anyway?

Submission for the Pony-Earthverse. Yes, I'm joining the bandwagon late. Please don't hate me.

"Other" tag is a stand-in for potential interaction with other stories. If necessary, tags will be revised.

The Great and Powerful Trixie is the most powerful unicorn in all of Equestria and she is not happy about it. She wants answers and she's going to get them from THE pony's mouth, Princess Celestia's.

Just my pathetic attempts to capture the not-so-known life of an awesome and under-appreciated background pony.

In which Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Fleur Dis Lee, Derpy, Time Turner, Photo Finish, the Flower Mares, Carrot Top, Minuette, and Berry Punch are secretly awesome.

Don't worry, there's totally a story.

But... you kinda have to read it to believe it.

It does involve a conspiracy. Also, insurance scams. Probably romance, so... that's happening. And, like, really cool fight scenes.

And I think there's a dinosaur in there somewhere. Probably not.

That would be awesome, though.

Anarchy never felt so good.

Equestria Daily Approved!
What happens if, due to an unlikely series of plot devices, everypony's favourite background ponies were brought together for a hilarious adventure? That's what this fanfiction explores as Octavia, DJ P0N-3, Lyra, Bon Bon, Doctor Whooves and Derpy go on their own little experiences, reminiscent of the Mane 6's adventures.

Cello edition.
Originally written on September, 2011. (Before Season 2)
Also FIMFiction needs to allow one more character tag. Poor Doctor Whooves wants his own tag on this story.

Each chapter (or set of chapters) is intended to be mostly self-contained, following a formula similar to the show, albeit more comedic-ally.
