1''[[http://www.fimfiction.net/index.php?view=group&group=405 PonyFall]]: A Collaboration of Self-Inserts'', is a collaborative fan work based on ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', published on Platform/FimfictionDotNet.

3In Equestria — Discord is (somehow) set free once more. Once again, he hides the Elements of Harmony and this time, he doesn't give a clue as to where they are. Their six bearers and the Princesses confront him in battle. In the midst of that, he manages to grab hold of Princess Luna. However, just as he was about to cast a spell, she does so as well and it results in a bright pink explosion, which engulfs everypony (and some who aren't ponies) in Ponyville and beyond...

5On Earth — Imagine if you will, that you were out for a walk one day, a supposedly normal day like any other, when suddenly, the sky becomes a bright shade of pink for a few minutes, and you start to smell the aroma of chocolate fudge. While everyone is panicking you search for the source of the strange smell. You find a mysterious stranger (an Equestrian) passed out on the ground. Who is this strange person, and what will you do?

27--> "How could- You People- It’s- No. NO! Why is this- How is this... You... Bronies... Friendship... I don’t- I can’t-” She shouted every attempt before finally throwing her hands up in the air and giving out a strangled cry that sounded like something halfway between one of the velociraptors from Jurassic Park and the Wilhelm scream before finally pointing at the screen and shouting, “FILTH!”

29* BatmanInMyBasement: A problem for some of the younger bronies, in particular John, who ends up having to hide the kids in his parents' guesthouse.

41* HotInHumanForm: Pretty much everybody finds the Equestrian's human forms to be beautiful, especially [[HotGoddess Celestia's]] human form which [[MostCommonSuperpower has very huge knockers]]. It's even more awkward since they are found naked.

58* TrappedInAnotherWorld
59* VideoGameCaringPotential: While playing ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', Sweetie Belle resists battling at all because she doesn't want her [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Chikorita]], the first pet she's ever had that hasn't wanted to kill her, to get hurt. She changes her tune once Scootaloo tells her Chiki is a guy.
