AJT brought out another one with Fairly Odd Angles and Other Stories.

It's pretty much an older Timmy trying handle puberty and the increasingly odd situations he ends up in, but it's definitely a good one so far.

Applebloom: Transform and Roll Out. Applebloom, and JUST her, so no CMC combiner, finds out she's an Autobot. The story details how she feels about not being an Apple clan member by blood like she thought.
Applebloom: Ah'm so sad. We're not sisters any more!
AJ: Nah lil' sis! We're still sisters even if ya ain't been born an apple you're still our lil' applebloom!
AB: Yay!
AJ: In fact from now on you're more than just our lil' apple bloom!
AB: Yay!
AJ: You're also our lil' tractor!

Gobbling and Other Traditional Pursuits - A collection of stories that feel like they're from children's fairy tales, though a few feel more like Original Brothers Grim (particularly the "Old Favors" chapter). They sound like stories that could easily have ended up in an Equestrian book of fairy tales. My personal favorite has to be The Two Sisters and the Spirit of Strife, though Bargains is another good one.

Edit: adding a new one:
Hot Muzzles - Following an ill-fated reformation turning Equestria into a republic, Celestia calls upon Twilight to aid her in getting rid of a gang of kidnapping timeshare salesponies.

Edit: found another, don't want to double-post:
Twilight Gets Divorced - Twilight and Flash Sentry have a whirlwind romance and get married... for five minutes before Twilight realizes that they've got literally nothing in common. But it's okay, all she has to do is get a lawyer and get divorced. It's so easy.... isn't it?

I don't usually read MLP but when I do...I dunno, I guess I'll post it here. Any of you guys read this one yet?

The Chase - Though it starts as what seems to be a shipping fic between an OC and Derpy (and it is), it's actually fairly interesting. Personally, I feel it gives a bit too much weight to biology, but IMO, it does a good job of making the differences between the various races significant and meaningful.

edit: removed the link. Just realized that it had a sex tag, which it seems to be inching towards around chapter 20+ and I don't feel like getting in trouble (it's mostly insinuations as of chapter 21). Nothing as of yet, but I'm going to hedge on the safe side. You can look it up on Fimfiction yourself.


Adding this:

Winning and the Pitfalls Therein - Quoting the summary seems best:
"What if the villains were allowed to win without a fight? Would all of their plans bear them the fruits they so desired?

Probably not, especially when their royal adviser is Twilight Sparkle."

I rec The King is Dead, Long Live the Emperor! Basically, during the season 2 finale, a Changeling is in the royal library, specifically the spot where Twilight used the time travel spell, and gets sent back to King Sombra's rule of the Crystal Empire 1000 years ago. The last thing that goes through Sombra's head is said Changeling's hoof at terminal velocity. The changeling is now Emperor of the Crystal Empire. It's actually fairly humorous.

The Pinkie Pie's daughter also time traveling for some arbitrary reason bit nearly killed the fic for me. So did the whole "King Sombra took over Tartarus" but I can forgive that one a bit.

New rec: Coming from the same guy who writes Arrow 18, we have Change is Good. After being sent out of Canterlot by Cadence and Shining Armor, the Elements of Harmony send Chrysalis to the human world where she meets an engineer. Stuff happens, and she goes back to Equestria with said engineer...who is now a changeling.

He had that written in his drabble folder for a while.

Changeling: the Movie - Chrysalis realizes her failures were due to a lack of basic understanding of ponies in general, and comes up with a clever scheme to fix that: make a documentary.

“Don’t push it,” said Twilight. “I’m still not completely convinced that this isn’t a trap somehow.”

“A trap...” Chrysalis stopped. “Oh, a trap!” She slapped her forehead, absent a drone to do it for her. “That’s actually a good idea. It should have been a trap.”

Twilight’s eyes grew dangerously narrow.

“Oh, don’t you start,” said Chrysalis. “It would have been an excellent trap.”
 
ok, as there isn't a Search thread for MLP fics let me ask you if you know one fic:
yes it's HiE (and actually that genere was what made me interested in MLP in the first place, now i find that out of 10 fics i prefer those without Humans in them *mainly because the lack of quality in most of them*)
the particular one i'm looking for has something about Twilight being atonished/mad/angry/surprised about Human technology/advancement because as far as her doctrine knows: Advancement and Progress of a culture/civilization can only happen in peacetime/harmony and is atonished that Humans have advanced so much when their culture is inmersed in conflicts about the 90% of the time.

Found this story amusing.
Twilight's Escort Service - Twilight's just received her official government escort license, which allows her to legally take on passengers during a teleport. Unfortunately, the fee was hideously expensive -- enough to completely wipe out all her spare bits. And there's a major purchase coming up which she refuses to put off. So what better way to raise the money than by giving her freshly-approved skill a workout? After all, it's winter, it's cold, ponies will get home all the faster, and since Twilight knows what 'escort' means, so will everypony else.

It's probably best not to bet on that last part.

Its better then you think.
I Against I, Me Against You Act 2 Final Part - Broken Toy

Everything changes for Twilight Sparkle and her friends when a mysterious extraterrestrial ship crash lands in Equestria, its sole passenger a seemingly dead bipedal creature in hi-tech black armor. When Twilight messes around in the ship's systems with her magic, she ends up transported to an alien world unlike anything she imagined: a box canyon in the middle of nowhere.
