Lyra has loved Anonymous for a long time from afar. Unfortunately for Anon, she's also a wanna-be murderer. One day she gets the brilliant idea to kidnap Anon and threaten and/or intimidate him into loving her back! How hard could it be?

Unfortunately for Lyra, she's not very good at it.

Long ago Celestia imprisoned a powerful, dangerous entity. Too bad nobody seems to realize he's a harmless dope.

This story started out as a parody of the two stories Machinations in the Dark and Celestia's Prophet. You may wish to read them first to get some context for the first chapter.

Now has a tvtropes page!

Spike is just an ordinary Canterlot High student who gets a strange sense of deja vu when the new student Trixie Lulamoon transfers in. Matters are only made more confusing when she claims that this is her 13,118th transfer and that she is here to break him. After realizing he is in a time loop, he is forced to work together with her to escape. And at the heart of the plot lies a mysterious entity called Discord and the boxes capable of granting any wish.

I occasionally get inspired by other authors' works and write a scene or two from their story in the manner I think it should have went. These are those scenes.

Note: Though I draw ideas from other fanfic authors, I always write the scene in my own words and I always credit the original author as the source of the idea.

A man stumbled into Equestria through means unknown. A year later Twilight Sparkle saw the worst his species had to offer and, in a paranoid fit, tried to have him killed.

Cast out by pony society, this man must find his place with the other Equestrian outcasts in order to survive. Fortunately, there are more of them than anypony else thought. And they aren't happy.

He may not like it, but he has little choice but to step into...

The Kingdom of Darkness.

Inspired by SaiyanUltima's "Seasons of Darkness".

You find yourself in Ponyville with no recent memories, a splitting headache, and an odd familiarity with everything around you. You realize that you're completely comfortable with ponies and situations that you have absolutely no experience with. You know for a fact you've never been here before, and yet it's like you've lived here your whole life. Nopony seems to recognize you, but you slip into playful banter with them like you were old friends without even thinking about it. What's going on?

Why does it feel like you've done this all before? And if you have, then why does nopony recognize you?

On a less personal note, what's the deal with your new accessories? You're pretty sure you didn't have them the last time you checked.
