Static Shock hates how he looks. How he sounds. How he feels.
His Dad just wants him to be a good son. But he's not.
She's not.
She never will be.
Her mother loves her as she is. Her Sister loves her as she is.
Her life won't be a easy. It will have ups and downs, triumphs and tragedies. But when she's done, Equestria will know who she really is. And she's got the best help she could ever hope for.

This story is a sequel to Tales from the Second Age of Magic

It should have been so simple. Beat the bad guy, fall in love, get married, go home, live life. But nothing is ever so easy.
For Static Thunder, former human and now Knight of Equestria, life is perfect. She's getting married to the mare of her dreams, her friends and family are safe and happy, and Equestria is at peace once more. Sure, there's the usual pre-wedding jitters to contend with, but surely a wedding in Canterlot can happen without a major interruption this time, right?
Too bad for Static and her friends, but something is coming, and they aren't on the guest list.
The Storm Empire is coming.

This story is a sequel to Of Men and Insects

With Queen Chrysalis gone, and peace once again restored, you'd think life would be simple and calm for Allan Ryder and his friends, right? -HA! Think again, silly! Life's never that simple!-
-Dammit Pinkie! Get out of Vegan's description!-
Chaos gods, crazy neighbors, crazier friends -Hey! I resemble that remark!-, ridiculous misadventures, and a world full of magic don't make good bedfellows with the word"ordinary".
Being in a new body, yet again, and being an adoptive mother? That just makes everything worse.
Welcome back to life in Equestria. Please enjoy your stay.

The sequel is here! Basically an anthology series detailing the goings on between major events, this fic will include plot relevant details and characters involved in future stories, so read this before moving on to any sequels that I write in the future.
Allan and Katherine Ryder, as well as several other characters who will be added to this description later, are of my own creation. AKA, COPYRIGHT TO ME! I will be extremely annoyed if people use them without asking for permission first.
Mature rating and tags for innuendo, references to booze, physical violence, swearing, and multitudes of adorable, pastel coloured ponies. You have been warned.

With Equestria's National Prank Day a week away, human-turned-changeling Allan Ryder, knows that Pinkie Pie, Discord and Rainbow Dash are going to be targeting him as the new guy in town. However, he figures that all he needs to avoid the chaos is a little of his own. Time to do what changelings do best.
******************************

Okay, this was just a weird idea that popped into my head. This involves friendship, a little shipping, magical tomfoolery, shapeshifting hijinks and a couple of out of character moments. This is non-canon to the main story, but is set during Allan's third week in Equestria.
Allan is my character, but all the rest belong to our lords and masters at Hasbro inc.

When Chrysalis discovers a portal in the badlands, the fallen Queen flees through it to escape King Thorax and his new subjects. Plotting her revenge, she takes the place of a young man, only for him to fall through the portal and into Equestria.
The young man is Allan Ryder, a Twenty-Three year old from Vancouver, who is transformed into a Changeling by the magic of the portal. From there, it's a race against time to prepare for a battle that only one side can win. Allan will need all the help and training he can get from his new friends, and perhaps a bit of love as well.
This is the story Of Men and Insects.
************

This is my first story about ponies, though I do have another I am also working on at the same time. This fic contains shipping of a cannon character with an OC.
This takes place right after season six, and as such, will not be effected by future episodes of the show (Unless I want to write about them :3). It also assumed that the Equestria Girls movies, and the comics are canon, featuring references, and maybe even appearances, of characters from those worlds.
Allan Ryder is a character created for this story, as are all of his family and friends, and any additional human characters from his world. In other words, they're mine.
All other characters and places set in either Friendship is Magic or Equestria Girls belong to our lords and masters at Hasbro inc.

Rated teen for swearing and mature language. Added the 'sex', 'violence, 'gore' and 'profanity' tags due to violence, mild bloodshed, barely concealed innuendos, and mature language.
