こんにちは guys! I was inspired によって Canada24's 一覧 of his お気に入り (and least favorite) works of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fanfiction to write up my own 一覧 as well. However, I don't really want to trash on anyone's stories, so I'm just going to do my favorites, but to make up for only discussing the favorites, I'll 一覧 もっと見る stories. My 上, ページのトップへ 15, as the タイトル implied. Just a warning, I know some people aren't as big readers as myself, and don't want to read these long fics, but please at least look at what I have to say about them. As a warning though the shortest of my 上, ページのトップへ 15 is 60,000+ words long. In addition to the タイトル and author, I will also be prefacing my thoughts with a tag-list and chapter count, so people can get a quick idea of how interested they might be before they read what I think. Alrighty then, let's jump into it!

15. The Moonstone Cup によって Cyanide

Tags: Adventure
Chapters: 22, including the epilogue and side story
Starting off my 一覧 is a return to the days when Twilight was just a badass unicorn instead of a frickin' GOD. The gist of the story is that Twilight competes in the largest magic competition in the land, an event which unites the various races of Equestria, including not just ponies but also diamond イヌ and dragons. Although there's a lot of political intrigue involving the different races, and a Trixie subplot, where this story shines is in the competition scenes. Specifically, in the magic duels. Seriously, I'd say the fic is worth 読書 if only to get to those parts. Not that あなた shouldn't read the whole thing, but they really are the best part. What keeps this story at the bottom of the 一覧 is the ending. It felt heavy-handed and almost out of place, not to mention that the 書く made the final action scene difficult to follow, leaving me wondering "Wait, what?" during the resolution of 発言しました scene. But the rest of the story is solid enough to warrant this spot on the list.

14. Arrow 18 Mission Logs: Lone Ranger によって AdmiralTigerclaw

Tags: Adventure, Human, Sci-Fi
Chapters: 16, including the short correspondence bits
Now this was a story that for a long time just kept popping up when I would look for fics to read, but I just wouldn't read it for two reasons. For one, it's a Human in Equestria, または HiE story, which I'm usually not a ファン of. Secondly, the artwork for cover looked like every generic sci-fi story ever. Eventually though, I bucked up and read it, and boy am I glad. For one, it's written によって an actual rocket scientist, so all his science checks out (assuming of course that ポニー magic works as he describes). Second, the story is fantastic. Essentially, it's about this astronaut who has been sent on a one-man mission to investigate an astronomical phenomenon in a distant 星, つ星 system. A system in which the 星, つ星 is orbiting a much smaller planet. Sound familiar? He ends up discovering life on this planet (I wonder what it could be?). The entire story is told through his on-board mission logs and correspondence pieces back and forth between members of the ground crew on Earth. I don't wanna spoil much of what happens, but seriously it's really good. Third, this guy made 3D modeled pictures of the ships and their maneuvers which he's embedded in the story, and he created some 音楽 to go along with certain parts as well. Definitely worth checking out. (Oh, also there's an unfinished sequel but that's not important.)

13. Vinyl and Octavia: 大学 Days によって DawnFade

Tags: Comedy, Romance, Slice of Life
Chapters: 22, including the epilogue
"Oh my GAWD, did triq really include a SHIPFIC in this list?!?" Why yes I did. But honestly this story is too good not to include. I'm actually currently re-reading through it right now to celebrate starting university. This is easily my お気に入り shipfic (well okay so there's one other higher on this 一覧 but I like that one for other reasons), and it's what made me not hate ScratchTavia as a ship. I 愛 DawnFade's interpretation of all the characters, and he works in several OCs in ways I don't hate. Several of the jokes had me laughing out loud, and my chest actually tightens every time I get to Vinyl and Tavi's first キッス (spoilers for a 4-year old shipfic). The first time I read it, I couldn't put it down and spent the whole afternoon reading, at a time when I would normally read my longer fanfics no もっと見る than 3 chapters at a time. There's only one other 作者 who has made me care this deeply about whether または not a relationship in a fanfic will work out, and that other story is my #1. Oh, and if あなた don't have a problem with light lesbian horse sex, DawnFade's link fills in some of the missing scenes from the story where sex was happening "off-screen". Plus, not only is the story great, but it inspired a link link link link and link link link link link link. (Each of those words is a separate link to a separate fanwork btw.) The only ScratchTavia piece that comes close to this is Allegrezza, which I would also recommend, but that one doesn't break my 上, ページのトップへ 15 like 大学 Days.

12. The Dresden Fillies: Strange Friends によって psychicscubadiver

Tags: Adventure, Comedy, Crossover
Chapters: 13, including the prologue
I'll be frank with you, I'd never even heard of The Dresden Files before I read this fic. But The Dresden Fillies made me interested. Still haven't gotten around to actually 読書 them though. But regardless. This is a crossover done right. The character of Harry Dresden is played (from what I hear) exactly as he is in the original novels, and the way he ends up in Equestria makes perfect sense based on the world the 本 take place in. Surprisingly, the crossover character (Harry) and the cliche antagonist (Trixie) are the two best played characters in this story. I definitely recommend this story to any ファン of The Dresden Files, または of any other similar works like Grimm または Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Really just stands out as being the most well done Human in Equestria crossover I've seen. (There's also a sequel I haven't read but who cares.)

11. Mendacity によって Dromicosuchus

Tags: Adventure, Romance
Chapters: 13, including the epilogue
men·dac·i·ty
/menˈdasədē/
noun
untruthfulness.
Forget the Romance tag, this isn't even a shipfic. It's only got that tag because Bon Bon goes on this EPIC quest to save Lyra. Now that that's out of the way, on to the story. Basically, (spoiler for a 4-year old fic that reveals this in the first chapter) the reason Bon Bon has a different voice every time she appears is because she's a Changeling named Mendax. Nobody knows this. But when Lyra is controlled によって Chrysalis during the Changeling invasion of Canterlot, Bon Bon/Mendax goes on a quest to get her back, even if it means risking it all. This story wonderfully blends the mythology of the 表示する with ancient Celtic mythology, specifically myths about fae. Plus it introduces a new race, kelpies, which were semi-popular in the fandom for a while. The most important ケルピー is Bon Bon's travelling companion, link, and I feel like she's maybe my お気に入り part of this fic. When she was first introduced, she was easily my least お気に入り character. But she grew on me. And even now that it's been years since I first read this fic, I still remember her, despite her starting off as my least favorite. I guess あなた could say she stuck with me. You'll get that joke if あなた read the fic. This is also the fic that link incredible picture is from, and the fic which gave me the song I think of whenever I need to link. Oh, and it features one of my お気に入り pieces of changeling fanon, which also ties in to Aldrovanda's existential crisis, which is another of my お気に入り parts of this story. Anyways, this is definitely a must-read from me.

10. Night Guards によって Raugos

Tags: Adventure
Chapters: 12, including the author's note and the bonus chapters
This is the story of Hammer and Anvil, the batpony guards seen in "Luna Eclipsed". Like there's so much I want to say about this story but I can't because I don't want to spoil some of this stuff because it really doesn't hit as hard if あなた know what's coming. I would definitely suggest that everyone read through the whole thing, including the bonus chapters, because even though they aren't a necessity for the story, they do tie up some loose ends. Sorry for not saying more, but just know that that's only because I want あなた all to read it.

9. On a クロス and Arrow によって Conner Cogwork

Tags: Adventure, Comedy, Romance
Chapters: 12, including the lead-in to the unfinished sequel
あなた guys have probably seen r63, または genderbent, versions of characters from the show, right? Ever notice how they all seem to be the same interpretations despite being portrayed によって different people? Ever wonder why? Well that's because they're all from this little beauty. The epitome of the "Twilight screws up a spell" genre, this story stands out as the only time it's okay for Rarity to fall in 愛 with herself. The characters may not be played exactly like they are in the show, but Conner makes it work with his humor and penchant for putting ponies in awkward predicaments. Oh, and it's an alternate realities fic that isn't TOTALLY convoluted. Just a bit convoluted. Easily one of the funniest fics I've read. Oh, and +50 points for the Ace Attorney references in there.

8. The Sisters Doo によって Ponky

Tags: Adventure, Comedy
Chapters: 22, including the epilogue
It's a simple concept. What if Daring Do and Ditzy Doo were sisters? But it's done so fantastically well. Daring is well done. 虹 is well done. And this is easily my 秒 お気に入り characterization of Derpy/Ditzy in any fic ever. Bonus points go to this story for calling that the Daring Do 本 were real a 年 before "Daring Don't" aired. This story does a good job of 表示中 real character conflict, and of integrating several different mythologies, including the works of Lewis Carol. Seriously, I memorized Lewis Carol's "Jabberwocky" because of this fic. There are two side stories to this fic which begin and end over the course of the main story, but I didn't read those. One follows Dinky and the CMCs, the other follows Twilight and Pinkie, and in the end you'll find out that 読書 those was actually really important I guess? Whatever, I still 愛 this fic anyway. Don't worry, it's Wabe-tter than I'm making it sound. (God that pun was so bad and none of あなた are even going to get it.) Oh and also Lyra from Background Pony makes a cameo. または wait... who was I talking about again?

7. Anthropology によって JasonTheHuman

Tags: Adventure, Comedy, Human, Slice of Life
Chapters: 31
Yet another fic I marathon-ed, although I still wasn't able to get through the whole thing in one day. But this is an iconic fic. In fact, many of あなた have probably heard of it. または at least the link it inspired. This is THE Lyra fic. The ONLY one. I'm pretty sure I'd remember if there were more. A blogpost on EqD from like years 前 once listed this fic as one of the 上, ページのトップへ 5 most influential fics in the history of the fandom, and for good reason. This is the quintessential Lyra/humans fic. When I first read this I didn't know much about it, and there's something that happens pretty early on which guides the entire rest of the story that I was not expecting at all which completely threw me off. Bonus points for having several human characters I don't hate, minus bonus points though because none of those people are nearly freaked out enough によって the things that happen over the course of the story. Still a great read and an important piece of fandom history. Oh also there's a non-canon side story which was created によって JasonTheHuman for April 1st and initially uploaded in place of Chapter 18 in the story, and which still makes me giggle a little, titled link.

6. It Takes a Village によって determamfidd

Tags: Adventure, Comedy, Romance, Slice of Life
Chapters: 17, including the epilogue
It may shock all of あなた that a SPIKE-centric fic is this high on my list. But it's a good one. Basically, Spike has grown up, and is now link. Not only does this lead to problems with his living in Ponyville, but also with the fact that he's pretty close to the territory of that one dragon from "Owl's Well that Ends Well". But his フレンズ band together to protect him both from ponies who want him gone, and the angry dragon who wants him dead. It goes high on this 一覧 for being the first fic that made me care about Spike, and for the epic dragon fight scene which made me actually think Spike was cool for once. The thing which keeps this story out of my 上, ページのトップへ 5 is the epilogue. Over the course of the story, there is some light shipping. Just a little bit, and it's handled alright. Until the epilogue that is, which is seriously the worst handling of shipping I've seen in my entire life. Honestly, I feel this fic is better if あなた don't read the epilogue. I mean あなた can if あなた read the fic and REALLY want to know how the relationships end, but it probably won't be worth it in my opinion. But don't make that keep あなた from 読書 the fic. It's still great.

5. My Little Alicorn によって InsertAuthorHere

Tags: Gore, Comedy, Dark, Sad, Slice of Life
Chapters: 18, including the toned-down version of chapter 15
This fic begins as a funny, lighthearted fic where Luna plays a prank on Celestia and turns her into a filly. It continues this path until あなた learn もっと見る about the ポニー who created the spell Luna used and all of a sudden the story becomes DARK AS FUCK. Like seriously あなた may have noticed in the chapter count I mentioned a toned-down version of chapter 15, that's because InsertAuthorHere had to 公開する two versions of that chapter because people were so upset によって how gory and dark that chapter was that they refused to keep reading. This story also includes my 秒 お気に入り interpretation of Pinkie Sense, but I don't want to explain it because the reveal, although the reader can totally see it coming, is still pretty great. Bonus points for the fact that あなた only have to read one version of chapter 15, and unless あなた have serious problems with gore/dark material, あなた should read the original because yeah it's dark but it's done so well. Also bonus points for having a villain who legitimately believes he's doing the right thing. I can't tell あなた enough how much this story defied my expectations, so go read it. あなた won't be disappointed. (Oh there's also a sequel あなた shouldn't bother reading)

4. Past Sins によって Pen Stroke

Tags: Alternate Universe, Dark, Sad, Slice of Life
Chapters: 22, including the prelude
Here we have another one of the fics featured in that one EqD 記事 about the most influential fics in the fandom. This fic gave us link, an OC I wouldn't be surprised if you'd heard of. She is essentially the product of a cult attempting to summon Nightmare Moon, and getting interrupted mid-way through. The pseudo-mother/daughter relationship Twilight and Nyx have is extremely well done, and it makes the later chapters of the story oh-so heart-wrenching (you may have noticed Twilight standing on the gallows in the cover art). The story does tend to get dark at times, but not as dark as either My Little Alicorn または my #1 choice. This is another story I really don't want to spoil too much of though, so that's all the thoughts I have to give for now. Oh, wait, also before I forget I want to say I really like how Pen Stroke interprets "star beasts" in this story. My fanon about that is built on his vision.

3. Keeping It Simple によって Ivory Piano

Tags: Comedy, Slice of Life
Chapters: 20
Eeyup, I included another shipfic on the list. AND it's one about Big Mac. But the shipping isn't why I 愛 this fic. Before I get into the details, I'd like to mention that this is my most recently read fic (re-reading 大学 Days notwithstanding), and it's already smashed its way into my #3 お気に入り fic spot. Plot-wise, this is a fic about what would happen if Mac were too severely injured to work on Sweet 林檎, アップル Acres for an extended period of time. Shipping ensues. Now here's the problem with discussing this fic. I refuse to tell あなた who Big Mac is shipped with. Because that's half the fun of the story. Right up until the very end, あなた don't know who Mac is going to end up with. It could conceivably be any of the various characters presented as potential 愛 interests. I will assuage your fears though によって assuring あなた he ends up with a mare. That's part of why I 愛 this fic so much though is that Ivory ピアノ does a great job of making sure that any of the potential 愛 interests seem like viable choices to the reader at any 与えられた time. I also 愛 the background he gives for Big Mac, and although part of me feels like some of the decisions Mac makes in the course of the story are very OoC, the other part of me acknowledges how spot-on Mac is played at other times. Also bonus points for Braeburn. (There's also an unfinished sequel but who cares?)

2. The Steadfast Sky によって TheGreyPotter

Tags: Adventure
Chapters: 79, including the post-Overcast scene and the Hearth's Warming special
This fic seeks to explain the backstory for Equestria, the Elements of Harmony, Celestia, Luna, and Discord. Although completely rekt によって the events of Season 4, the story is still fantastic. I really can't tell あなた my お気に入り parts because I refuse to spoil those for anyone, but just know that this story features young Celestia, Luna, and Discord going on an epic quest to save Equestria from an evil unicorn who seems very similar to Sombra despite being created almost a 年 before Sombra was revealed. The early chapters especially act as a sort of bildungsroman for the party, and later chapters have some of the coolest interpretations and explanations for things in the 表示する I've ever seen. This is also the only time LunaCord is okay. Bonus points for Gen 1 Smooze. TheGreyPotter is also currently 書く a non-pony version of the story, which I have no interest in, but it's there if someone wanted that for some reason. I'd recommend this story to anyone who enjoys well-done world building.

1. Fallout: Equestria によって kkat

Tags: Gore, Adventure, Crossover, Dark
Chapters: 49, including the intro, prologue, epilogue, and afterword
Anyone who knows me should have seen this coming a mile away. I 愛 Fo:E so much. And so do tons of other people. Heck, check out link to see all the incredible pieces of ファン content just for this fic that come out every day. I'm just gonna drop link link link link link here. Oh, and there's also a bunch of 音楽 out there, and a fan-created link in the works. This fic is easily my お気に入り of all time, and despite its length I've re-read it twice. Like my phone lockscreen is the Stable-Tec logo and the 壁紙 is the Ministry of Wartime Technology logo. I'm already a big ファン of Fallout, so it makes sense I'd 愛 this story, but あなた don't have to be a Fallout ファン to enjoy it. One of my brony フレンズ who's never played a Fallout game in his life also considers this to be his お気に入り fic. The party members are so memorable, and kkat makes あなた seriously care about every single one. I don't know if there will ever be another fic which makes me care about its main character もっと見る than I did about Littlepip. または Calamity, Velvet Remedy, SteelHooves, Xenith, または even frickin' Pyrelight. One thing to note is that this isn't a straight crossover like The Dresden Fillies was. This is もっと見る of a thematic crossover. Basically, the story is set in an Equestria in which there was a huge war in the past which obliterated both sides, and the story involves characters living hundreds of years later trying to survive this post-apocalyptic Equestria, very similar to the post-apocalyptic United States of the Fallout series. Several of the factions and plot points in Fo:E are very clearly based on factions and events in Fallout. The Steel Rangers are very clearly based on the Brotherhood of Steel, Stable-Tec is clearly based on Vault-Tec, and Friendship City borrows heavily from Rivet City. But kkat makes it her own and makes them different enough that even knowing those similarities you'll have a hard time predicting what happens. This story is one that has stuck with me since I first read it. When playing the Fallout games I'll still sometimes accidentally refer to the Brotherhood as Steel Rangers, または to my Pip-Boy as a Pip-Buck. I can never hear the word "calamity" without thinking of Calamity. One of my お気に入り parts of this story though is an aspect it does borrow very effectively from Fallout, that being learning what happened in the past slowly によって finding things, such as recordings, personal effects, または bodies, all throughout the Wasteland. I'll never forget what happened to some of the characters from the 表示する within Fo:E. This is also that fic I alluded to earlier about a fic making me care about whether a relationship worked out, that being the relationship between Littlepip and Homage (yeah spoilers she doesn't end up with Velvet who could've guessed). That ties in to another point about this fic. It's inspired a LOT of derivative fanfiction. The most 人気 is probably Project Horizons, but I don't like Project Horizons as much as many others seem to. The only must-read side story anyone has written that I'd suggest is link, but that one contains light lesbian horse sex so watch out. But it's also so well done and fills in some holes (no pun intended) in the story behind Littlepip and Homage's relationship so perfectly that kkat actually went on the record as saying A Mare Worth Fighting For is the only fan-made side story which is canon within Fo:E. Anyways, my point is, this is my お気に入り fanfic of all time, and I would recommend anyone read this. (Ooh, and as a side note, kkat originally started 書く this to get some of her フレンズ who were ファン of Fallout into MLP, so あなた don't even need to be a brony to like this.)
