Ryan Curtis; Hard worker, loyal friend, cynical asshole. Come and join him on his adventures to make a new life in Equestria!
The princesses have made the mistake of summoning a creature to Equestria. His species was that of Legend, an old ponies tale. Ryan Curtis was a human. Wanting to help him anyway they could, the royal sisters were willing to give him whatever he wanted so he could live comfortably. His response; Raising his middle finger to the two of them and walking away with no more then three words uttered during his departure. "Go Fuck Yourself!"
Another branch off of the original Perfect Mate, only with a lot less romance and whole lot more bullshittery!
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.
Sunset Shimmer's close friends know about the magical world called "Equestria", but, soon, Twilight becomes unsatisfied with just having their questions answered. So, Sunset brings her camera in her next trip across the portal.
For Sunset Shimmer, letting a group of impressionable high school students in the know about another dimension where magic reigns and talking ponies are the norm is not the easiest thing to handle. It does not help that the portal to this dimension is right in front of the school.
Sooner or later, though, she has to deal with more than mere questions about Equestria. Twilight becomes curious enough that words won't cut it for her anymore. She wants to see this dimension for herself.
So, Sunset begins by offering to bring her camera through the portal to take pictures and videos of her next trip there in Equestria.
Within The Conversion Bureau Universe, Newfoal immigrants face settling new lands within Equestria. Unfortunately, not one of them knows how their new universe actually works.
A direct continuation of '27 Ounces: A Tale of Eight And One Half Ponies', the lives of a family of newfoals from their very first arrival in Equestria is followed. Join Caprice, Alexi, Pumpkin and Buttermilk in their day-to-day lives as they adapt not only to being humans-turned-Equestrian, but struggle to help found a new village in the ever expanding Exponential Lands. This is a story of courage, survival, and the process of bringing a new landscape under proper Equestrian dominion. Starting without weather, shelter, or any understanding, these brave newfoal pioneers face daunting odds.
Knowledge of the previous novel is not needed to enjoy this tale.
Lock and load. It's about to get primeval in here.
A research accident on a remote island unleashes an unstoppable ancient enemy that hungers for destruction. Can the sudden appearance of an unexpected ally shatter the hands on the clock of doom?
NOTE: This story begins during the pause between seasons 5 and 6.
If you enjoyed this book, check out the spin-off series "Equestrian Alliance: Menagerie" available now!
Twilight unwillingly starts seeing something more that just chaos in a certain Draconequus.
Update: The story is edited into a proper read without many of the horrors I originally put into it. Enjoy the ride!
Deciding he could be given another chance, Luna and Celestia come to an agreement to release the Chaotic God from his rocky imprisonment, locking his powers with a powerful spell. Magicless and with a chance at redemption, Discord's ways seem less chaotic than ever.
He does cause a lot of chaos though, to the faithful student of Celestia, who had eagerly taken over the task of watching over and teaching Discord by giving him a home under her own roof, in the process hoping to learn more about his species, powers and motives but surprisingly learning much more about both himself and her head... Which puts her in pretty amusing situations most of the time.
An adventure of a silly one sided (???) love and a look into the heart of Twilight Sparkle.
First Lieutenant Jake Carson is aboard the Starstreaker, the most intelligently designed space craft ever conceived by humanity. During his time on board they are ambushed by a Verix fleet and forced to take drastic measures
It's the year 2853 and the human race is more threatened than ever. The cybernetic species known as the "Verix" had been eliminating any and all life they could find. The war began many years ago, when human kind had been branching itself out to new planets, in hope to control it's growing population. After the discovery of the hostile lifeforms, planets have been under constant war. Human kind is slowly losing the fight, and realized they needed to think of a new strategy, or they'll be eradicated. And so began the age of genetic modifications.
Second Lieutenant Jake Carson, a man fighting in the war for humanities survival, returns from his latest mission. Upon returning he is granted the promotion of First Lieutenant, and is scheduled to begin genetic modifications the next day. Then all hell breaks loose.

FEATURED 6/28/2015
THANK YOU ALL!
Edit: For the many more times this has appeared in the feature box again... thank you so much for this great honor! I never thought I would make a story that could constantly make the featured box. And to any new readers here, I hope you have a great time reading
This is my LATEST story I have created. I am working on this in hopes that I can finally make the kind of story I always wanted to. This story will be VERY long, so be ready to grab some popcorn and stay a while if you are late to the party!
I hope you all enjoy the story as much as I enjoy writing it!
LABELED MATURE FOR.... reasons.... (Luna x Human eventually...)
Story starts in third person and transitions into first person. Third person is used in early chapters to catch up the story.
And there came a day unlike any other. A day when Equestria needed to be avenged.
'To whoever gets this message, we're in desperate need of help.'
'Equestria...Equestria is on the brink of being destroyed. Sombra, Tirek and many other villains are taking over our world. The Ambassadors of Harmony are nowhere to be found and Celestia and Luna...Faust, Celestia and Luna. I don't know who you are and I don't care, just as long as you can save us. And if you can't do that, then at the very least...'
While on a job to deliver supplies to a new colony in the Andromeda Galaxy, something goes horribly wrong. David Lawson finds himself the sole surviror of a devestating crash on an unknown world. An unkown world full of colorful talking ponies...
Note* This story is prewritten and will be updated weekly.
In the year 2037, humanity developed the technology to travel across galaxies. Several companies sprang up with intent to travel to the Andromeda galaxy and develop Earth's first colony. David Lawson joined one such company, but on the flight back to Earth, something went terribly wrong. Now, David has crash landed on an unknown planet. He is all alone... or so he thought.
Midnight Shadow, a unicorn mare from Canterlot, takes responsibility for the strange alien creature and saves his life, but can he even make a life for himself in this new world? Can he ever find happiness? Security? Love?
The way certain characters act was inspired by a few other stories on here, namely Fleeting Flames, To Find a Rainbow, and Lyra's Confession. I highly recommended you read those if you haven't yet.
Also, this is my first story ever, so please be gentle. Tagged with violence due to a small fight in chapter 3 and descriptions of blood and burn wounds. Nothing too crazy, but tagged just to be safe. Tagged with sex because of sex.
If this story is any good whatsoever, I attribute that to my best friend and fantastic editor AJ. Also, I would probably have far more spelling mistakes and bad grammar if not for BurningDusk. He read through all of my crap before hand and made sure it was legible.
When Scootaloo disrupts one of Twilight's experiments Scootaloo and Twilight find themselves in a galaxy at war.
When Scootaloo crashes into twilight during a magic experiment they get teleported to an unknown city that's burning and has weird creatures scattered in the streets. As the two separated stranded ponies roam around the city separately trying to figure out where they ended up, will they try to make it home as fast as possible or will they stay to help a species that's being systematically eradicated?
I'll try to upload chapters whenever I finish them.

23-12-18: I got featured! 2 - 1 - 19: Again
Edit: This entire thing is going to be edited and partially re-written somewhere in the future.
What if when the Crystal Empire had returned, Shining and Cadence had not beaten Sombra to it? The King returns to his old tricks, enslaving the population once-again, leading them into a new age of despair and misery.
That is, of course, what might have happened if a certain deranged Human hadn't woken up in the snowy wastes clothed in nothing but a singlet, a set of Boxers covered in hearts and smilely faces and armed with an empty bottle of vegetable juice and a large wheel of cheese.
All that is certain is that the Crystal Empire will never be the same again...
Also, on May 5, 2014, the fic encountered a massive flamewar of epic proportions. Blood was spilt and there was much lamenting.
A little side-project I started, don't worry, i'm still working on Saviour or Destroyer Takes place apart from Saviour or Destroyer, but Nigel is still the same old Nigel. Enjoy
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!
A tale of someone comfortable with his life becoming somepony not well liked at all.
What happens, happens. I think that is one of the rules of Causality as stated by the late, great Douglas Adams. It is a pretty important rule and I use it to guide me through life, no matter what goes on in it. So, when I was driving to an out of town job and found myself in another world, I did my best to take everything in stride.
I would be the first to say the adjustment is not easy. Especially, when the first thing you do is make yourself a pony distrusted, disliked and defamed by some national heros. Thinking about that, I think I have to invoke another Douglas Adams quote. "Don't Panic."

This is the result of me getting bored one day and starting writing. Now that I got a bit of it done, I wouldn't mind honest opinions, and flame away if you feel the need. I have thick skin.
As you might notice, there are a few chapters with a box at the top. These are the ones that my editor and I went through again, and hopefully improved. I'll refrain from changing plot but spelling, grammar and flow are all up for grab. Especially for the early chapters.
After his sudden death on his way to school due to an idiot driver, Ken Williams wakes up to find himself as a strange quadruped with wings and a horn.
Set shortly after the season 5 premiere, but before episode three
Romance tag readded due to a lack of a certain mare having a ship in the finale.
Normally, Ken wouldn't have minded finding an excuse to get out of school. However, being hit by a car and suddenly waking up as a strange four legged creature with purple fur, wings and a horn is not something he'd have chosen just to play hooky.
Now in a world he continually doesn't understand and makes him... now a her, want to pull her hair out, Ken must learn how to coincide with the creatures of Equestria, while finding her place in this bizare world that defies all senses of logic she was raised with. On top of that, she's now apparently a princess and has to deal with nobles fawning over her, including one male who she knows is definitely just trying to get into her new female parts to breed, and she'll have none of that.
Of all the things she could've chosen to get out of school, this was definitely not one of them and she just wants to go back to normal. Sadly, that doesn't seem likely to happen any time soon.
Though not pertaining to the main character, Romance tag does still apply to other characters in this story. It's just the Tag Limiter wouldn't let me keep Romance Tag after I edited the description a little, so had to remove the tag, even if it still holds some small weight on the story.
Featured Box 16-18/8/2015. Okay. Seriously did not see that coming.
Popular Stories 16-20/8/2015
Featured Box again 6/11/2016 if only for a few moments. I... I honestly don't know what to say
Sunset Shimmer, practitioner of friendship, twice savior of Canterlot High, alicorn. She's offered to help Twilight's new student as the whole group travels to the Crystal Empire for a Crystalling. Should be a relaxing, stress free trip. Right?
Sunset Shimmer, twice savior of Canterlot High who earned her wings by using the combined magic of the Earth elements of harmony to save the world from Twilight Sparkle (you know... the one with the glasses). She's offered to help Twilight's (you know.. the alicorn Princess of Friendship) new student learn about friendship while the whole crew embarks on a trip to the Crystal Empire. This should be a fairly relaxing and stress free trip. Right? RIGHT?!
It should go without saying, but MAJOR spoilers to the season 6 premier.
A small foal is found in Cloudsdale, but Bow Hothoof and Windy Whistles know nothing of the humanity within.
Everything dies. Sometimes, a life is left unfulfilled and with many regrets. The problem is, there are no do-overs. No second chances.
Not usually, anyway.
Sometimes, cosmic beings of unknown power just like to provide people with those second chances one such person thought impossible. Why? Who knows? All she does know is that she's now a small blue pony with wings.
A very young blue filly at that, and one who has to deal with the scars of her secret old life while living under the shadow of an older sister who doesn't know what to make of her.
Four legs and magic. What kind of mess have I gotten myself into? I only wanted a full length mirror for home, and now I'm in a strange world with no friends or family. Who's this dark horse in my reflections and why is it blocking my trip home?
(As of 4/3/2016, this story has been Good HiE List Approved!) A garage sale mirror was purchased, cleaned and polished, yet some dark shape seemed to block the light. Jess tried to clean it off, only to find her hand going through the mirror itself! This dark form became more solid on the other side, and actively blocked her path home. Now she'll need to figure out more than just how to walk on four legs as a pony, she'll need to learn how to use magic and find out what is preventing her from leaving. What will she do once she finds out why the 'shadow' blocks her path, and what can she do to return home? (This story takes place in tandem with "Trapped in the Mirror of Worlds" by my good friend, Silver_Wing. Our characters intersect at many points, and you will enjoy the nuances of each character's perspective of events).
Note1: This story has divergence from the partnered story due to differences with the other side, including on direction of certain events. It may have similarities if continued, but is no longer collaborated.
Note2: this story has a sequel the author has moved forward to Soldier and Hope for the forseeable future. Bear in mind this will contain spoilers for this story and potentially for Trapped in MoW if the commonalities remain.
Anon is trying to move on with his life after what happened in Ponyville but it's hard to ignore what's right in front of him.
Things are a lot better for Anon since the events of Ponyville. His store is doing great and he enjoys the company of all his friends. As the days go on, he finds that the problems of the past are quick to haunt him as he is forced to face the one thing that hurt him the most.
