This story is a sequel to Sanctuary: An Interview of a Changeling

Following the events of Sanctuary, the stallion, Dr. Lovejoy, is looking for a place to hide. He runs into a place of Starlight's village, a seemingly happy utopia where everypony is equal.

But for the retired stallion, he considers this place as the perfect playground to spend his last days.

It was just another day for Eric Reed as the "non-native bridge to pony society" for Twilight Sparkle's School of Friendship. He was the only non-pony in Equestria who had fully accustomed to pony life who also wasn't native to not just Equestria, but to that world completely. A view even Spike can't claim to have.

However, even Eric's unique take on ponies couldn't prepare him for how to respond when Gallus confided in him that he had formed a crush on one of the Mane 6. So, Eric did what he had a tendency to do during times he was rattled.

He ended up putting his foot in his mouth, and not literally.

This story is one of a series of stories that all take place after A Giant Adventure to Equestria. However, it is not necessary to read any of them to understand this story, but "A Giant Adventure to Equestria" does show how and why the human OC Eric Reed is in Equestria.

If you enjoy this story and would be interested in reading any of the other stories with Eric, you can find the list of all current ones here.

This story follows Cadence of the Crystal Empire, but it can also stand alone nicely.

Winter nights are too cold for a filly to be lost and alone. She stays on the bridge, hoping somepony will come by.

When the strange stallion agrees to take her home, at first she feels hopeful... until she realizes where he has taken her.

Never has she been so afraid.

Part of the Elsequestria Continuity.

(Chronology Note: this tale takes place before the series begins. This chronology continues with ‘Twilight Doesn’t,’ while John’s own story continues in ‘The Apple Jamboree.’)

(Content note: like almost all my stories, I strove to make this uplifting regardless of the tags. I leave it to you to determine if I succeeded.)

My first Militia Fic, have a read and give me some feedback to see if you like it, it is also the first time I tried a quick journal chapter, hope to see you interested in my Fic, Serra.

The Artwork was also drawn by myself.

After Octavia dies, Vinyl Scratch is heartbroken until help comes from a changeling...surely, she thinks, a counterfeit Octavia is better then no Octavia at all?

Equestria is a land where magic runs free, from powerful spells to the growth of a single flower, it is omnipresent.
When a magical force of unprecedented magnitude is unleashed, guests from unknown origins are pulled in.
Will they be grateful for a chance to live in Paradise, or will they resent the lack of choice, taken away by friendship.

Orisian was a juggernaut. He could break through castle walls alone if you gave him the order. He could obliterate enemy ranks if it was required, and he could hold off thousands of enemy forces if it meant protecting his superiors. But even with his experience and strength, no one can save a kingdom that is past its glory days. So what happens when his world falls, and everything he fights for is gone?

Added the Romance tag. Honestly never expected to have that in this story.

Sunset Shimmer, the most antisocial student at Canterlot High School. No one would guess that she's actually the mysterious vigilante, Blacksun. But what happens when someone enters her life and flips her world upside down by asking to be her friend.

Will Sunset, A.K.A. Blacksun, be able to save who she needs to save with this wants-to-be-friend wasting her precious time? Or will Sunset learn that she's the one who needs saving?

Throughout their journeys, Sunset will fight threats both in school and out of school. And along the way, maybe the two will find that they like each other more than friends? Or Sunset's become delusional.

In an attempt to get away from home and see a different world, I moved to Equestria. A lot of humans have recently, so it's not unusual for me to be here. While I'm still getting used to talking horses, I never thought about dating one. I'm still not totally on board for the whole cross species thing, but it's not uncommon anymore so I don't worry about it too much. My closest friend, a Unicorn called Twilight Sparkle, has been kind enough to let me stay at her library while I search for a home here myself. Her boyfriend, who's actually a human too, and I don't get along too well, but for her sake, I don't say anything too bad about him in front of her. But I just didn't expect things to escalate between us like they did.

*This story takes place when Twilight doesn't have wings and isn't a Princess.*

In the magical land of Equestria, there lives a pegasus pony with the heart of an angel and the face of a devil. Her face made it difficult to make friends, as it repulsed other ponies and made them think she was a dangerous character, but she persevered in reaching out to others. This is the story of how she obtained the magic of friendship.
