Someone or something clearly wants Button Mash dead. Or, at least, wants him to know that it wants him dead, what with all of the deadly circumstances followed by second chances.

It will take all of his wits and metagaming ability to survive this.

Or he could learn his lesson and apologize, but consider who we're talking about here.

(Inspired by, but otherwise unrelated to, Obs's latest meme. Gore tag as a precaution—descriptions of it are going to be pretty short and clean.)

One crippled Equestrian society, one chance to save it, and fifteen-thousand potential heroes to live the legend. Join Twilight Sparkle as she lives a second life to defend Equestria one last time. Action, suspense, and Pony-Puns await you.

I'm in a hospital bed with tubes coming out of orifices I didn't know I had. Why am I there? Why is Rainbow Dash sitting in the corner?

Why is she crying?

The Doctor has lived a long life, and he's seen a few things.
He walked away from the Last Great Time War. He marked the passing of the timelords. He saw the birth of the universe, and he watched as time ran out, moment by moment, until nothing remained. No time, no space, just him. He has watched universes freeze and creations burn, he has seen things you wouldn't believe; he has lost things you will never understand. And he knows things: secrets that must never be told, knowledge that must never be spoken, knowledge that would make parasite gods blaze.
But in 909 years of time and space, he has NEVER seen ANYTHING quite like where he just found himself.

In an attempt to learn more about the species known as changelings, a group of scientist experiment on a changeling captive. Though the only problem is that the changeling is only four years of age. The procedures didn't go without any consequences though. Now the young changeling is free to go on with his life, but something about him isn't quite right.
Join this changeling as he makes the most adventurous journey of his life.

Pandinus Imperator (You can call him Pan, he won't mind) is knocked back in time during the Canterlot Invasion, and accidentally kills King Sombra on arrival. Instead of being executed, the changeling is surprised to find himself being hailed as a hero, and is promptly put on the throne as the new monarch, the Crystal Emperor. However, Pan now faces a great many problems, among them Celestia and Luna, who seem certain that the changeling is secretly up to no good, as well as several political factions secretly plotting to undermine his reign. There's also the tiny problem of the constant snowstorm that threatens to cut the city off from the outside world permanently.
The Crystal Ponies need a hero now more than ever before. Why did they get a changeling instead?

We Has A TvTropes.

While not truly a part of Bucking Nonsense's Changeling-Verse, the same rules regarding changeling abilities and society apply.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders decide they need to expand their numbers, but things quickly go awry when their first target begins sobbing on the spot. Sweetie Belle soon finds herself roped into hanging out with the young colt.

Can Sweetie Belle see past the young colts weirdness and allow friendship to bloom? Can Button Mash fake enough normal behavior to make at least one friend? Will these two hit it off, or are Button’s only friends destined to be the ones in his video games, forever?

A collection of short stories that I write to keep myself from going crazy. It shall be updated regularly.

Most ponies assume that something is wrong with Ditzy Do's eyes. Theories range from a head injury to a genetic disorder to muscle damage behind her eye. The crueler folk suggest she's just retarded. Nicer ponies say it's just a party trick she never got tired of.

They're all wrong. They're all very, very wrong.

I discovered the truth one day in conversation with her. One eye would always look at me, and the other would wander. At least, I thought it was wandering. So while we were talking, I followed it. Goddess in heaven I wish I had not. Never follow the other eye. Ever. Because Ditzy Do's eyes work fine.

She's just watching something. That... thing that's always in the corner of our eyes. And if she looks at you with both eyes?

Goddess save you.
