* Recommended by Hidden Nimbus
* ''Synopsis'':Rarity’s two-week old daughter is accidently sent to the Human world and is raised by humans as an American citizen, named DJ. Then fifteen years later, Equestria finally manages to find DJ again and attempts to return her to her “real” family. The story follows DJ many years later.
[[

* ''Synopsis'': "Humans. Truth or myth? Ancient lost civilization or just an old pony's tale? No pony has ever seen one, and most haven't even heard of them. But Lyra knows that these wonderful creatures are more than just old legends, and she's going to find out... and possibly drive her roommate insane in the process."
* ''Comments'': Short, but very fascinating. It's a story about Lyra interested humans but doesn't actually feature them in Equestria {{spoiler|no thanks to Discord}}.
** Seconded. It's very interesting to see a development of how much Lyra is affected by her interest in humans, and that there seems to be a complex backstory to "us", and how Equestria deals with it, doesn't hurt either. If you like Lyra, you'll be wasting time if you don't read this story.

* ''Arddun Lleuad Synopsis'': A "human in Equestria fic". Where the protagonist and Luna fall in love. Yes, it is [[Better Than It Sounds]]. In other words, it's a story of one Chester, dropped into an odd fairy-tale world, who eventually finds somepony who needs him and loves him. Then things get sour...
** ''Chwe Goleadau Synopsis'': [[Captain Obvious|The sequel to Arddun Lleuad]], it's an epic adventure/horror/romance story. Luna and Chester face a horrendous manipulative villain, who is threatening Equestria {{spoiler|and eventually everything else}} with something far worse than mere conquest.

* ''Synopsis'': The Princesses find an alien creature barely clinging to life at the scene of a terrifying crash. Can the Combined Power of the Elements of Harmony save it, or more importantly, should they save it? Will the arrival of this strange creature tear Equestria apart?
[[
* ''Synopsis'': A nameless man lives alone in a dying city, in a world of apathy and gray, starving for color. One day, during one of his many lonely walks on the silent streets, he finds a box containing a young pegasus filly with a rainbow mane.

* Recommended by
* ''Synopsis'': A self-insert human-in-equestria fanfic written for the express purpose of showing that these so-called [[Sturgeon's Tropes|toxic tags]] that normally doom a fanfic to failure can be used to good effect. The author wakes up to find himself in Equestria, meets the Mane 6, the princesses, and a bevy of OC's, and faces off against The Nightmare (the force that corrupted Luna into Nightmare Moon); wisecracking and taking [[Aside Glance|aside glances]] all along the way.

* ''Synopsis'': "We all know about stories where Humans enter Equestria. But what about a world where Equestria is in the Human world? It is the year 1820, and a series of events brings a young unicorn and a human prince together. Together, they will embark on a quest to change Europe, and the world, forever."

* ''Synopsis'':When a motorcyclist is struck by lightning, it sends him to a strange world in a seemingly unexplainable turn of events. With no one able to offer him the answers to his questions, he settles in for the long haul, and looks for a way home. Lost, injured, and still reeling in the post-traumatic stress of military service, as well as the criminal underground of street racing, he struggles to maintain his very sanity. Little does he know, the friendships that made life worth living for him would be the key to stopping an ancient enemy bent on anarchy and genocide.

* ''Synopsis'':
In 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.

Line 141 ⟶ 130:
* ''Author's Description'': Rarity's life has been pretty good lately: Her business is booming, her friends are finding success of their own, and, best of all, she's found someone to share her life with. Someone from a completely unexpected place. But when an old friend from her past returns, she finds her very way of life threatened by a jealous mare who refuses to let old grudges die.
* ''Comments'': Readers should be warned that while they may not be the focus of the plot, there are quite a few explicit scenes which might be dealbreakers for some. The use of the second person might also be off-putting to some, but if you can look past both these and the premise of a human and a pony in love which is much [[Better Than It Sounds]], there is some excellent characterization and emotional moments to be found within.

It seems I get to view this world from a different perspective then what I've imagined. My name is Echo. I am a Diamond Dog.
