I know some people have troubles with crossovers, but...

Between Worlds-An HP/MLP crossover. It's only 2 chapters long, but if nothing else it offers a very surprising and somewhat original origin for a certain villain

I have a tentative rec: A Midsummer Night's Dream. It's a Pacific Rim crossover where, while fighting a Kaiju, a two Jaeger pilots use an experimental portal device and "jump" to Equestria....and accidently bring the Kaiju with them. Word of warning, some may find Celestia a bit too trusting and arrogant.

EDIT: I would also like to rec Hail to the King. And before anyone says anything, no, it is not a Duke Nukem crossover. Basically, a human has already died and is in the process of going to heaven. He almost makes it, if it weren't for the shadowy King Sombra...who only wanted to be there for the stairs. The human gets sent to Equestria in Sombra's body in the Crystal Empire. Cue mass panic. Oh, and he thinks he's in a coma.

A little gem of hilarity based around a single thought...

Eyes Wide Shut

On a normal day, a normal, boring day, Spike has a revelation...

Everypony is naked!

It's a dirty, somewhat mature/immature little comedy, but it is funny seeing reactions as Spike shares this knowledge with friends like Time Turner, Big Mac and Princess Luna, irrevocably changing their lives, for better or worse...

Inbetween worlds: 2/10

It continued and I'd like to take the opprotunity to warn others away before the lose hours of their life reading it. Just plain shitty writting, less than a week in and Harry started going prison gay for ponies. He ever is enough of a douche wffle to start a long term commitment even though his goal is to leave Equestria forever and yas been give much reason to think it won't work or will take too long. When Adventure time did this they waited until afer a 20 odd year time skip before Finn hooked up with the pillow girl, who he had made no effort to hide his quest from. It's nice and tragic in that bitter sweet romantic way, the fell in love on a quest that would ultimately end with him gone forever.

Not in this story however. Instead Harry gts drunk and buggers a horse. That's it. Also the author doesn't bother to try and make him seem british, but its mostly flthe horse buggery.

Counter Review: Between Worlds

In my opinion, the writing isn't that bad. It does seem to move somewhat slowly.

He's there for a month before having a drunken bang with a pony, which is quick as hell, but you could also think he's sorta realizing his life as a pony is a damn sight better than his life as a human or a wizard, and even seems to start referring to himself mentally as Somber rather than his human name.

And his interest in returning to his home world seems to be barely mentioned, he actually seems more like he's trying to understand what the blue hell happened to bring him there.

I'm not saying it's the greatest thing, but it's definitely not the worst.

My rating: 6.25/10 It is what it is. Not bad, not great, but an alright story to read.

:Reason: While it has some interesting elements and ideas, it's pacing seems slow and, while not awful, the writing also isn't anything stellar. Characterization does seem somewhat off and, while most of the ponies are OC's, which means they can be however the writer wants them to be, in parts for Harry/Somber, it kinda stands out some.

Hail to the King: 7/10


A very funny story. A human guy died and got cockblocked at the pearly gates by the shade of Sombra. Because of plot he ends up in Equestria, as Sombra, near the Crystal Empire. Realizing that he's a talking pony that can control rocks and float things with his mind our protagonist comeas to the understandable conclusion that this is all a lucid dream caused by his near death experiance. And than proceeds to act like anyone would if thy found out they were untouchable, that is to say he he just stopped giving a fuck. Naturally everyone thinks Sombra revived and went completely fuck nuts. Favorite part was Candances reaction to learning about humanity, nearly busted a gut hearing what she thought about it's credibility.

Meh. The joke lses it's punch after the first chapter, they just keep repeating it without much variation. Would have been funnier is Spike's perspective evolved over chater. Realizing Stalions are naked too, wing boners, that ponies have to put their mouths on jst about everything, Lyra sitting down, and that AJ bucks apples. Every chapter a new revolation that shatters Spikes previous views of the world for better or worse.

New rec: Diary of a Store Clerk. Some human guy just blinks into Equestria near a town really far from Ponyville and Canterlot. As in, so far, the only way to get news from Canterlot is to take a two hour train ride to another town. He calls himself a bearotaur, half bear, half minotaur, and opens a store. He wants to be as far from the mane 6 and their adventures as possible. Sadly, Murphy happens and brings them to town...along with a human girl. Oh, and apparently, humans, or at least this guy, hibernate in winter in Equestria.

The Seventh Star

A bit of a tear jerker, but a nice bonding moment between Spike and the new Princess Twilight. It also made me look on something canon I hadn't notices before.

Rescuing Rarity - The Diamond Dogs return for revenge, Sweetie Belle gets enthusiastic, and we learn far more about Rarity's private thoughts than anyone ever wanted to know.

Comedy fic. Sweetie Belle is hilarious, and Spike's going to play a huge part since he's one of the main characters.

Adventures In Currency Exchange: The REAL Conversion Bureau.

A different take on humans popping up in Equestria, with a magical tube apparently pulling in random humans from multiple different universes at odd intervals. The end went meta and got a bit cheeky, but otherwise, it amused.

I kinda like the different take on Derpy's name

Bubbles cutie mark = viewing the quantum foam of the multiverse? Because why not?

Yeah, that too, but "Dawn's Eastern Rays of Perfect Yellow" as a name...I don't think I'd have been able to come up with a nice sounding name that had that anagram

I know it's already been suggested, but I thought I'd take a moment and share Eyes Wide Shut once more as it's been concluded. With alternate, funnier ending.

Still funny, if overused. There's a reason we still laugh at bad jokes, even if they are...well, bad. Because there's something intrinsically funny about the subject.

They killed the joke around the 3rd chapter. Would have been funnier to have spike suddenly realize that guys are naked too.

I think he still did, hence his pride in his 'Dick Ninja' status

New rec: The White Mare. Basically, after banishing Nightmare Moon, Celestia goes into self-imposed exile in the Everfree. Fluttershy finds her during the first Sonic Rainboom. Everyone is different here, with Twilight being considered a nutcase.

A Dream Come True: The Mane 6 show up in a guys house for the intent purpose of beating the crap out of him. Why do they do this? Well, it's hard to say without spoiling, but it's an...interesting reason.

But it's the ending that makes it for me. It's the sort of twist ending that would stab M. Night Shyamalan in a dark alley with a rusty kitchen knife for daring to think himself the master of the twist ending.

...Okay, I may be overselling it, but it's still pretty good.
