If only other universes had cell coverage, Kaelynn could've told the others what was really going on. Though then again, she'd never held a dive radio that didn't rely on some on-site infrastructure. So even on Earth, she'd probably be stuck just telling the others after it was over.No sooner were the others walked away than the naval officer doing her interview was replaced with someone else. This creature seemed older, more seasoned somehow. More important?"Word is already spreading of a seapony who…-

Kaelynn was in no hurry to leave the water behind. For the first (and probably, only) time, her body felt like no disadvantage, but uniquely enabled her to enjoy the world she'd been placed in. But it was getting dark—by the time she had a clear view of the water's surface, she could see only darkness above.So as much as she would've rather spent the time exploring Seaquestria, returning to her friends was more important. She couldn't just send a message back—they'd been caught by enough police in…

It wasn't good to be a fish.Kaelynn had ample reminders of that fact anytime she wanted to leave her sequestered corner of the Bright Hawk, even for brief social interactions with her friends.When leaving for anything more, there was a good chance she would end up getting into even more trouble.I should've just waited in the tank. There wasn't anything I could do to help. It wasn't true, though. By the time she'd dragged Ryan back to the tank, he barely had enough strength left to change back into…

What was your first experience with Accipio like? Equestrian records say you were sent in as a negotiator long before any formal agreements were signed.That’s true. I had a blank canvas to work with when I started.I was afraid—everypony was afraid of griffons back then. But I wasn’t really worried about my own life. Mons Ignis was going to erupt, and maybe kill everypony. That was the bigger threat. Coming to Accipio could’ve saved everypony.It looks like it did.She doesn’t respond to this, only…-

Patreon Writing“You’re quite lucky to be talking to me.” Sunset pulled over a chair, sitting on it backwards and watching her. “I’m guessing you did not have much exposure to the propaganda.” At her nod, the woman continued. “We keep areas off-limits for a reason, Jackeline. Exposure to that much magic is difficult for an unprepared mind. Every human has… a spell protecting them. You were born with it, and exposure to magic weakens it. Too much magic at once and the whole thing unravels.…-

The task waiting for Lotus was harder than any academic challenge she'd ever attempted before. Of course learning an impossible new skill was not directly comparable to anything she'd done in her life before. But the many hours of practice and study that followed felt very similar.Nothing in high school had ever felt quite as difficult, of course. No piece of math homework she ever failed to complete had the promise of never having her own body again, or forever marooning someone who was only trying to…-

For the first time in Bit's timeless existence, she found herself beset with an entirely unique problem: a task that was time sensitive. This was her one great advantage, the thing that made the Wizard sing so much praise to her precision and thoroughness. She could devote herself completely to every endeavor she attempted, learning every possible fact of relevance, examining it from all angles, and only acting when she was precisely confident in her choice.This was how she had got the power working, with…-

Ocellus heard no sound from the house, and sensed nothing from the human’s mother that suggested she might be about to wake. Marie had begged her not to get her into more trouble, but Ocellus no longer cared. Is this how other creatures felt about old changelings? We seemed smaller, harmless. But we were one of the most dangerous things Equestria ever faced.They’d only been the warm-up.Ocellus locked the bathroom door behind her, then crossed to the window. She could see why there was no security spell…-

Lane had probably spent more time imagining how mew lived than any human alive. Even before he’d got his hands on the Celadon University genetic report, he’d imagined a tropical habitat for the Pokémon. He pictured soft nests high in the trees, hunting using their powers and raising young under the moonlight. It was obvious they could fly, so maybe they spent most of their time up near the clouds, playing and watching the stars. The ruins of an ancient city seemed determined to prove him wrong.…-

The anti-acceleration chamber wasn’t exactly a comfortable place to spend the afternoon. As soon as Felicity crossed the doorway she began to float—or rather, to drift in a straight line given her initial entry vector.She struck the far wall a second later, colliding with something soft and padded before drifting off again at another angle. She spread her wings, and there was barely enough time to use them to catch herself without smacking into the walls.Light glowed from strips running out from the…-
