History FanFic / FiveScoreDividedByFour

[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/93383/five-score-divided-by-four Five Score, Divided by Four]] is a WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic {{Fanfic}} by [[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/TwistedSpectrum TwistedSpectrum]]. It follows the adventures of Dave, and later others, who after his 25th birthday wakes up and finds Rainbow Dash's Cutie Mark on his thigh, which is only the start of a long chain of changes that lead to him becoming the mare herself. And he's not the only one exchanging hands for hooves.

* DeconstructedTrope: Chapter 21 of the clean version deconstructs the MLP fandom's [[spoiler: "ponies as pets" fanart trope]] by exposing its UnfortunateImplications, showing how [[FateWorseThanDeath horrible of a fate this would be]] for the show's characters if it actually happened to them. In it, [[spoiler: Pinkie, Rarity, and Shining are kidnapped by a group of thugs who plan to sell them off as housepets. The author pulls absolutely ''no'' punches in describing how horrible, degrading, and humiliating this is for the trio.]]
