Lyra is determined to find out the truth behind the mysterious legends of humans.
Humans.
Truth or myth? Ancient lost civilization or just an old pony's tale?
No pony has ever seen one, and most haven't even heard of them. But Lyra knows that these wonderful creatures are more than just old legends, and she's going to find out... and possibly drive her roommate insane in the process.
I'd heard about the TV show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic from my college roommate who is way too into the show. Disturbingly so, actually, but good gravy I would never watch the darned thing! What am I, five? I've got better things to do with my time than watch a silly little girl's show. However, that didn't stop... something from transporting me into the world of the show, so here I am... in Equestria... trying to get home. This is gonna be interesting.
Special thanks to GuyFace, Jack Kellar, Storm Shaker, Spiffy McSquee, and Goober Trooper for helping me with this one!

Lyra has developed strong feelings for the new human in town, but can't seem to muster up the courage to tell him. That ends today. Today will be the day she finally confesses everything, and he will feel the same way about her... Right?
First story I've ever written. Writing quality might be sketchy.
Its been almost a full year since a human popped up in Equestria and no pony was more excited to befriend the newcomer than Lyra Heartstrings. The two have become the closest of friends, but now Lyra finds herself wanting more. Only problem is the human has been oblivious to all her advances, and she cant seem to muster up the courage to openly confess her true feelings for him.
That all changes today. With a little help, Lyra will confess everything to her clueless lover, and he will feel the same way about her... Right?

Lyra has been happily dating her human coltfriend for a little while now and wants to start a herd with him and her best friend, Bon Bon. The only problem is, Bon Bon doesn’t want to be a part of a herd with the human. Bon Bon loves Lyra with all her heart, but she just can’t seem to relax and open up around the scary bipedal creature.
This won't stop Lyra. She knows that if Bon Bon would just give her coltfriend a chance and accept him for who he is, then she too will find love with him. She knows it in her heart to be true and once Bon Bon can accept her feelings for Chris, then they will become a happy family together. It would all work out perfectly in the end… Right?
Contains: Adorable relationship shenanigans, cute cuddle sessions, and clop. All the clop scene will be sectioned off into its own chapter and will be optional. If you just want to read a romance story without the sexytime, then that option will be easily available to you, but if you do skip it then you will be missing out on some adorable cuddles.
A dying young man discovers that his life may not be what he thought it was, and the seemingly innocent TV show he watches in his hospital room may not be fictitious.
20-year-old Ryan Burbank is living with his girlfriend in their woodland home when he is struck by a mysterious infection seemingly out of nowhere. To everyone's horror, his sickness spreads quickly throughout his body, shutting him down one piece at a time. The doctors are at a loss of what to do about this new form of bacteria. Ryan and his loved ones choose to keep fighting until either a cure can be discovered...or the pain becomes too much. At the height of his suffering, he discovers a happy little show while watching television in his hospital room. The bright colors and happy attitudes of the cartoon equines provide him with a much-needed escape from the daily pain of being killed from the inside. Eventually, the pain becomes too much and he decides it would be better to go out surrounded by his family, in the embrace of those who kept him company throughout his short life. Just as he starts to fade, his eyes wander to the screen of the hospital room television and the cartoon ponies who adorn it. Something strange begins to occur...almost like the screen is pulling him in. Tunnel vision, maybe? No, that can't be it...why can he hear his name being called by a very familiar voice? And why is she...crying? Who is this crying, familiar voice and why does she seem to know him?
Rated "Teen" for language and the "Sex" tag is for all of the sexual humor and suggestive situations. If I decide to up the suggestive stuff in the future, I'll change the tags and rating to fit that change.

For some, it's heaven; for Jamie, it's his own little plane of hell that makes even Satan feel torment.

Hi, the name's Maurice, and I happened to be unlucky enough to get transported to a world which is inhabited by aliens that suspiciously resemble colorful horses from my world...
Anyway, with the knowledge that I'm gonna be stuck here for either a long time or possibly forever, I'm given no choice but to live and interact amongst the natives.
Now I live with two roommates, both mares; one who's practically a free-spirited party girl who works nights as a DJ, while the other is a cellist who has a more refined, calmer nature...aaand may or may not have ties to the Equestrian mafia...
Will I be able to have a normal--well, 'normal' by this world's definition--life in this strange new world?
Nightmare Moon banished Celestia, only to be defeated by Ahuizotl. Ponykind were made the scapegoats to blame for her scourge. 1000 years they pray for a saviour to deliver them. Anypony will do. Enter the last hope, a pizza delivery dude.
"Ponykind must have run out of colours when they finally got to this pony. Everything from his mane to his ass was all seven colours of gloom and doom. He was so dark and brooding he probably ate glittery emos and shat vampire bats.” - Quote of the Week
1000 years the ponies have prayed for a saviour to deliver them, whether it was their long lost sun goddess Celestia, or even Nightmare Moon, maybe even the chaos lord Discord, anypony! After suffering under the yoke of a tyrant god for so long, they decided any saviour will do, even a dark demonic overlord. One unicorn sorceress finally decides to take matters into her own hooves. She sets out to the frozen ruins of a long lost Empire in the Crystal Mountains bearing a grand sacrifice of 1000 ponies in an attempt to summon the dark demonic overlord of the Crystal Empire.
When the dark ritual turned up a blank, the universe decides to shuffle in the next best thing. Will he rise up to the expectations of his newfound flock? He'd better, and quickly, for the tyrant god's inquisition is out to get him and the 1000 'blasphemers' involved in his summoning. With a nation to build and an evil tyrant god to fight, never has there been a taller order to fill. But it's alright, he's a dark demonic overlord, right? He quickly finds that with some smokes and mirrors and the help of 1000 very magical ponies, anyone can look the part, even an entirely magic-inert pizza delivery dude.
Now a long-haul fic! Many thanks to everyone who convinced me to make this a reality!
Somebody kindly messaged me and told me I should announce here that the story was featured from 27 - 30th of April. I completely missed that but many thanks for making that possible, everyone!
Cover Art: Placeholder drawn by me. Will be a background for a full cover at some point.

For years now a creature wanders the world of Albion, with questions in his head and sand in his boots. The questions are rather simple: Where do I come from and where will I go? But how do they say? Sometimes, the journey is the reward.
Indirect sequel to : The Precious Life - Nightmare. You don't have to read the prequel to understand anything that is happening in this story.
Albion, a planet we only could describe as a mystery. Inhabited by gryphons, minotaurs, jackals, diamond dogs, horses, zebras and ponies. As is if this wasn’t enough, they are all intelligent; each race with their own culture and history, making Albion a world full of myths, magic and mysteries.
Between these races are walking creatures that don’t seem to belong there. They move in the shadows, often feared by the people. Yet one of those shadows is searching for answers. Why is he here? How does the world work the way it does. And most importantly: How does he get home?
This is what forces the shadow to step into the light and face the questions haunting his soul. But one thing is for sure: the answers he seeks to find will not always be pleasing.
Info: This is not a self-insert. The protagonist is neither the chosen one, nor is he the lost element or some other lost power which would attract six certain ponies to like him for no reason. Actually, he is quite the opposite. He doesn’t want to be a hero, has his own head and in the course of this LONG story, he will have to deal with things he did NOT sign up for.

Two meetings later, a misunderstanding caused Dale and a Coast Guard woman to be inadvertently transported to Equestria. With the two humans hospitalized and communication limited at best, the Equestrians just want to heal them, while back on earth the Coast Guard wants nothing more than to determine what happened to one of their sailors.

They were wrong.
A human, pushed to the brink of madness and misery, attacks the Elements of Harmony. A war, unknown and uncomprehending, being waged for the survival of one species. A power hungry Alicorn setting her sights on new lands.
Now all of Equestria and her people find themselves teetering on the edge of war, war so uncompromising and ruthless against an enemy they all know.
Themselves.
Darkness begins to settle across the entire world, old enemies setting aside their differences for mutual survival.
Now is the time to fight... Now is the time to show the mad so called goddess that they will not bow to her... Now is the time to show Harmony as it is meant to be seen...
The Tyrant has no idea what she has unleashed... But then again... Neither do they.

Hello, all who see this, it is my displeasure to inform you that RedSkin has resigned from Spectrum and, as a part of an agreement, the original version is here for everyone to see unaltered. We, the remaining members of the Spectrum crew, are going to continue things in a new version that will be coming soon.
Please be patient with us as we try to adjust to this period.
Update all, here is the link to the new version SPECTRUM.
As a child, Daphne knew of a world where magic lived, where an immortal princess reigned over a beautiful kingdom, and longed to journey there beside Leit Motif, the filly she'd grown to love in the woods behind her home. But one day, when she needed her most, Leit Motif was gone, and she never came back to show her the way. As she grew, she put aside her childish dreams, and taught herself to believe the lie. When forces beyond her knowing take her sister Amelia, though, she discovers that her childhood fancies were entirely too real, and is thrust into a journey that will take her back to that land she longed for, back to the childhood friend she'd abandoned, and to worlds she'd only dreamed of.
