Anon becomes a deep-tissue massage therapist in Equestria. Like... elbow-deep.
Anon had a normal life of being a massage therapist. And then one day he accidentally opened a portal to Equestria. As the only human in this new land, it would be a shame if his magic fingers went to waste.
So he decides to work as a deep-tissue masseur at the spa with Aloe and Lotus. Ponies from all over Equestria come to work out their problems, stress and kinks. Anon: part-time masseur, full-time therapist.
Now about that happy ending...
A comment-driven episodic story. Each chapter focuses on a different character. After each chapter, YOU, the readers, nominate and vote on who you want to visit Anon for a massage next! Simply comment which character you want to visit, and after (an arbitrary amount of time)the character with the most upvotes will be next! (Duplicate nomination wont have their scores added together.) It can be any creature from MLP, even an OC! If your character doesn't get the most votes, don't despair! You can always nominate them again on the NEXT chapter.
As the only human in Equestria, Anon has been given the position of an ambassador. Because of it, he was granted an immunity by the Princesses. Literally.
An ancient law of Canterlot states that each species present within the city must have an adequate diplomatic representation. There are no exemptions from it, even as far as interdimensionals aliens are concerned. As such, Anonymous the Human must pick up the mantle of an ambassador for humanity, even if he is the sole specimen. Even if he doesn't want to.
But it's not all bad news for him. After all, with such a responsibility also come some privileges. Personal guard detail, generous private mansion, all expenses covered by the crown. And of course, diplomatic immunity. Only that, thanks to the pony magic, the word immunity is taken much more seriously in Equestria.
A six-year-old girl becomes the queen of a changeling hive! Too bad her parents are against this... (May contain musical numbers!)
Follow Speaker and his changeling brothers and sisters who, after the events of Canterlot, took it upon themselves to find a new queen. They found a portal in a deep cave and went through it, questionable circumstances aside. Now they find themselves in a world full of humans, and with a new queen!
Meet Catherine and her family as they cope with a gaggle of shape-shifting creatures who really do just want to fit in and be loved.
The problem is, Catherine's parents are not very keen on their daughter chosen to be the new Queen of the Changelings.
And the cat has gone missing.
Warning:
Some chapters will have musical numbers in them!

Ian has entered the land of ponies. He has information that he would use to advance their civilization, but he can't do it without the support of the leaders there. That'll be easy, right?
Ian strode confidently through the land of colorful ponies. They were a primitive people, but he would fix that. He knew more than their most amazing scientists. All that stood between him and his goals was to convince the leader of the ponies that he had what she wanted.
Gleaming Shield wants a simple life. Fate wants something else completely. Stupidity ensues.
Ever since she could remember, Gleaming Shield didn't ask for much from life. Being able to support herself financially, possibly advancing her guard career, and maybe—just maybe—confessing her feelings to her very-good-friend-and-secret-crush, Anon. You know, the little things. That's not too much to ask for right? Right?
Twilight Sparkle looks at her friends' dreams. What could go wrong?
Twilight Sparkle has just completed her latest magical achievement: An amulet that lets her look into the dreams of other ponies! However, she needs empirical data before she can brand it a success and report to Princess Celestia! Join Twilight Sparkle as she embarks on an insane adventure of the subconscious kind! Will her amulet work? And what will she find?
It's time to dream a little dream with Twilight Sparkle!
A changeling is captured and Princess Twilight is tasked with questioning it. Thinking it will be easy, and perhaps finding out what makes these bugs tick, Twilight goes the scientific route, but finds something she did not expect.
Twilight Sparkle gets the chance of researching and questioning the first live specimen of a changeling since the Canterlot invasion three years ago. Twilight goes in with a scientific mind and wants to figure out everything about these evil bugs, as clearly they have shown themselves to be nothing but cruel in the past. However, in an attempt to find a cruel primitive being, she instead finds something she did not expect. A teacher.
Story Tags and notes: There is going to be no explicit sex in this story, but gender, sex, and general reproduction will be a subject, as well as love, affection, morality, society and any other subjects that boggles my mind. This story is something I made out of a combination of my own headcanon for changelings, and with my frustration, yet love, for philosophy, which I study at writing moment at university. This story will have slow updates, but I will work on it. This is as much a work for me, as it is for you. I hope you´ll enjoy.
When Molestia is banished from Equestria, she finds something interesting in the Everfree.
Love is a complicated thing. It comes in many forms and has no rules. At least, it doesn't for Molestia. She's spent most of her life spreading "love" to all that she meets. Yet, when she's banished from the castle by Celestia, she finds something in the Everfree that will challenge her concept of "love".
Diamond Tiara and Button Mash go way too far to get an A on a sex ed assignment.
When Cheerilee's class is given an assignment to study the other gender's body and write a paper on it, who better than Button Mash for Diamond Tiara to exploit for an easy A.
However, is it simply exploitation?
Trigger warning: Foalcon. Don't complain, you were warned.
Thank you Dementia Ravenmane for proofreading and suggesting the epilogue chapter. It is your fault that I will be nagged until I die for this fic.
While studying an alien spellform, Twilight makes the most important discovery of all time... The one which could doom her planet. | Horror Rationalfic with Lovecraftian & World of Darkness elements. Deconstruction / Subversion of Displaced.
[Rationalfic Deconstruction / Subversion of Displaced] You’ve read the stories of people from Earth being “Displaced”: Their bodies are changed, their minds are warped, and they’re thrown across the multiverse, to whatever world and timeline their supernal "Displacers" decide upon. Well, this story isn’t one of them...
...because when they tried to remake me, I didn’t let them.
A Rationalist Horror story, in which an Occultist from some version of Earth (implied to be the World of Darkness) undermines her own Displacement and ends up as a Self-Modifying Construct. Scientific Inquiry, Philosophical Debate, Rational Discussion, Body Horror, and Existential Hijinks ensue. Themes, Concepts, and Style inspired by HP Lovecraft, Elizer Yudkowsky, Gordon R Dickson, Edgar Allen Poe, Modern Prometheus (Frankenstein), Dresden Codak, World of Darkness, and Friendship is Optimal. Front page on JUL 28th, AUG 12th, OCT 30, and every update after that.
Your story breaks the shitty norm that most displaced stories have in common by being an 'actually interesting story' instead of a powertrip for a horny teen.
This is like brain porn. My head hurts but in a good way.
Author’s Notes
I often find Displaced fics to be more often Miss than Hit with me. Often, they're generic, poorly written, or just do not do anything worth reading with the concept. This is an experiment to trt out a few other concepts which aren’t used often, even by me, including some which directly subvert Displaced as a genre, and maybe even come up with some advice for those authors. This is also a crossover with the upcoming Dragon: The Oroboroi Chronicles, a World of Darkness rulebook which I lead the development team for.
I hope you all enjoy this, and I implore you to leave some feedback in the comments section: I'll experimenting with a few uncommon concepts here, and I'd like to know how people feel about how they're coming across. :3
FAQ
Because people keep bringing these things up...
Horror/Dark Tags
I've had multiple people ask "how bad does it get?" Note the lack of the "gore", "sad", or "mature" tags or anything like that. Yes, there is blood and death at some point in this story, but the real horror of this story comes from the philosophical and scientific quandaries the characters go through: this is "intellectual horror", not "visceral horror".
Length
In the interest of this NOT becoming one of those long, sprawling fics, I plan to keep this limited to a manageable 10 chapter limit, not counting Prologue and Epilogue. No one wants to read something that long, and I'd rather not be stressing over this 6 months from now.
Sequel
The Sequel is already in the works, with scenes already written. It will be a more episodic story revolving around world optimization and interplanar hijinks.
Crossovers
To be clear, I do plan on having the main character make one of those "Token" things, but as they often get in the way of actual stories, that won't happen until the end of the story. The Sequel will be crossover-heavy.
A mom's a mom no matter how hard it is to understand them.
"You" are Anon, and you can't understand a bloody thing these little horses are saying. It doesn't help that you're only ten. Oh well, at least they're nice. Especially the queen horse, Celestia. At least that's what you think her name is. Anyway, she's awfully cuddly, always hugging you or some such. Honestly it's nice and all, but you are starting to wonder just why she is so affectionate...
Was bumbling around /mlp/ and made a thing. You might enjoy it, you might not, it's here either way.
Twilight and NMM/Luna make a wish that changes both of their lives forever.
Nightmare Moon is alone and wishes to have a daughter to share her kingdom on the moon with. Twilight is alone and wishes to have a mother that will love her. What happens when their wishes are granted? Read and find out.
Russian Translation for the story here. Thankyou NovemberDragon for doing the translation you are awesome.
So let's just turn this into a meme why don't we? Filly Twilight adopted by Villian X! I don't know I saw the ones with Daybreaker and Chrysalis and thought, "Oh what the hell I'll do it too because it's fun!" So here I am bringing you a story in a similar vein. Please enjoy the story and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcome. If you are going to downvote tell me why you did so I can improve. (Unless you're being an a**hole than I don't want you here.)
Featured on 7/10/18 Day one featured! That's awesome thank you all!
HOLLY S**T DAY ONE AND MY STORY IS CONSIDERED HOT! THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!
Thank you Julunis14 for the amazing cover art! Go give her some love she really deserves it!
Ponicemares risk skinned knees and noogies for the sake of the innocent. Now, if only Anon could get out of this desk job and actually make a difference... (RGRE)
Anon had a bad feeling when he saw the ice cream machine outside Firmly Asked Questions. Not only was the world softer and fluffier than he had anticipated, but he would also have to watch his weight.
Rainbow Dash naps a lot. Every day, several times a day, she can be found sleeping on clouds, or in trees, or even, very rarely, in her own bed at her house. And she always seems to have so much free time. Does she ever do any work?
Rainbow Dash has rather a poor reputation when it comes to her workload. Everypony always thinks of her as the pony who takes three naps during daylight hours, and four on weekends, and always seems to be looking for something to do to pass the time. All of this is true, of course. But ponies seem to think this means that she must not ever get very much work done.
Can the weather captain for all of Ponyville really be as lazy as she seems? Is that the only explanation for Rainbow Dash's free time and constant napping?
The weather is a full-time job. Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. And the worst weather happens at night.
Are pegasus wings really fragile? Do unicorn spells really fail catastrophically? And just how explosive is chocolate milk, anyways? Join Applejack, Rainbow Dash and the rest of the MLP crew as they not only tell the myths, but put them to the test!
A mighty monster has found itself in Canterlot. Princess Celestia herself decides to venture out to defeat the creature to keep her little ponies safe. Her method of doing so is... different.
