Pony Equestria as we know it.

"Well the votes are in! You're going to be a my little pony!" Discord said with a slight chuckle. "A bit of a shame, they don't really wear clothing so no cute outfits to put you in and no comparing breast sizes."

Breast sizes!?

"Oh yes, did you forget my little twist?" Came his rather gleeful reply as I felt another snap. Just like that I felt a sudden weight to my being that had been sorely lacking for what felt like hours. No longer was I some shapeless form in a void, but flesh and blood again! Except... nothing felt right.

I could feel four limbs, but all four were perfectly straight standing on the ground. He... he turned me into a pony hadn't he? Lifting one such limb in front of my face, I could easily make out a marshmallow like hoof. Apparently I was grey, odd color for a pony. Turning my head I tried to get a good look at my tail, only to see a bare bottom. No tail? come to think of it I didn't feel a mane either!

"Hey! What's the big-" I quickly shut my mouth. Without a mane or tail it was easy to try and ignore the fact Discord said he was making me a mare, but there was no confusing that voice for a guy's!

"Well I'm no Princess Celestia," Discord said appearing next to me, "but I believe I can play the part for the moment. Ahem. You have proven that you're ready VM."

"R-ready? Ready for what?" It wasn't until after I had said that and the music began that I realized I had walked right into his little joke. He wasn't seriously doing this was he?

"You've come, such a long long way!" Discord bellowed out as I finally began to take in my surroundings. Sure enough we seemed to be in the same weird spacial area that Twilight and Celestia had walked down during her ascension to princesshood. Except instead of windows showing my past doings, all I saw were mirrors reflecting my current form, along with other windows that displayed, text? Peering closer I managed to make out a few sentences here and there. Those were my stories!

"And I've watched you for like maybe a day." Discord continued, clearly enjoying every moment as he was going nuts with his singing, even if his voice wasn't really suited for it. For whatever reason I was simply following him in silence. I suppose I could try to run or something, but I doubt that'd really do much. Instead I was trying to get a good look at me, and well. There wasn't much to see really.

I was definitely a mare. My muzzle was short and cute, and my flank nice and curvy. Despite that though, there was no other defining feature. I had no mane, no tail, even my eyes were grey. What was the point of my looking like this? No way I wouldn't stand out like this.

"To see how this might go! To see what you might do! To see what you'll go through, and all the ways they'll make this ruleeeeeee!" He finished off with his claw on his chest, looking very much like he did when first turned into a statue.

"Well that didn't really rhyme, but we've wasted enough TIME as it is!" He winked pulling out a clock that sprouted wings and flew away. "And speaking of time, oh my how it flies! We've got to get a move on if we're to get to the fun stuff!" The way he was rubbing his claws together was making me very nervous.

"W-wait! What's going on? Why me?"

"Why you? Because you like to write genderbending stories and it's fun!" He cackled before reaching over to one of the windows that was a mirror, plopping it down in front of me. "Now, we just need a look, any look."

As he spoke he began to swipe his claw across the window, changing my reflection to that of various different colored ponies each with their own unique mane and tail. My OC as a mare, a blue pegasus, a grey earth pony, I swear I even saw a pink alicorn in the mix, and was that a batpony?! Many different types flashed before my eyes. For a moment I thought perhaps my physical body was changing as well, but no it was only the reflection.

"Now we can't go too crazy. No griffon's or changlings or the like. Won't fit with the theme, no not at all." He said before stopping his swipes, leaving it reflecting my current grey image. Wait was that why I had so few features like this? Because it was just a base form?

"W-why aren't I freaking out?" I'm not sure if I had meant to say that out loud or not. Either way Discord seemed pleased to answer me.

"Oh no need to thank me for that, it's just so much easier to get this done if you aren't screaming hysterically in my ear." Well okay that answered that, not sure how I felt about him messing with my emotions like that, but it did let me think clearer. It let me focus on what I should do at the very least. I was stuck in a void in a pony body. Wait.

"Hey hang on, how was I able to walk here with you! I've never been a pony before!"

"Oh please, obviously I had to give that brain of yours some base information so you could function in Equestria. I'll do the same if you end up a pegasus or unicorn so you won't have to learn how to use your abilities either. As funny as it would be to see you try and move around in an alien body in the end it's just be pointless filler keeping us from what really matters!" He pointed to another window, causing it to float to the left of the one that held my reflection. He did the same to another that moved to the right instead. Both turned black, before that yellowish text appeared on both, each one giving different options.

"It's time to figure out your role in all this my dear author. Let's hope they give you some good ones..."

As he laughed I felt a shiver run up my back. Something tells me I wasn't going to like how this ended.

Discord just laughed. "Don't forget to check the author's notes for your choices!"

And what did he mean by that?


Author's Note

Aww, I was hoping for choice C, but such is the way of things.

As Discord said, no cute outfits (Well maybe some, ponies can wear clothing) and no big chest for her to deal with.

No one's asked about it, but just in case. If you were wondering why 'Anthro' was not an option, the answer I'm afraid is I'm simply not really into it. There's nothing wrong with it for those who read/write it, but I personally just have no interest in writing it myself. If you're going to have them with humanoid features and breasts and all that, then might as well just make them humans.

That's just me. Basically if I was to try and do anthro, I'd likely never really mention what's 'anthro' about them and just write them as humans, so there isn't a point in my trying.

Anyway we have some big choices to make.

For those who asked about making him other races, the main thing I want to do is make him someone's daughter. I just think it'd be really fun if he was say: Cadance's daughter Skyla. Or maybe Luna's Daughter, or heck even Trixie's or Starlight's.

However I'll also give the option of him being someone's sister. Maybe Diamond Tiara's, Sweetie Belle's twin. Another Apple? We'll see what you guys vote for.

As such I'm going to have two polls. One for what kind of pony she ends up as, and one for if she's a daughter or sister. We'll also have who she's related to, but we'll get to that in a moment. I know it's a bit much, but I don't want to have several chapters of pointless filler before we actually get her into Equestria.

Poll 1: What type of pony?
https://strawpoll.com/krkzf25b
A- Earth
B- Pegasus
C- Unicorn
D- Batpony
E- Alicorn (because why not?)

Poll 2: Sister or Daughter?
https://strawpoll.com/8zb865ey
A- Sister
B- Daughter

Now comes the tricky part. What character will she be sister/daughter to?

There are FAR too many characters to list. So what I'll do is let you guys suggest names in the comments. I'll tally up who comes up the most and either declare them the winner, or just do one last poll of the top choices. (You can comment on the story, PM me, or comment on the poll itself. Whatever is easiest for you)

Now if say everyone picks Alicorn and then every one votes for Applejack to be the sister/mother to our main character, I'll likely end up going with the second most voted type. It just doesn't make sense for Applejack to have a princess daughter.

That's the only one I'll do that with though. If we get unicorn or batpony, I can always say there was one in the family tree at some point. You know the same wave away Mr. Cake used to explain his twins! XD

That being said though... there are some characters I'm vetoing from being voted for the sister/mother category.

No voting for Zecora. If you think I'm going to try and rhyme everything the MC says you're INSANE. (and no I'm no going to use the excuse that maybe the MC doesn't rhyme, because I'd still have to do it for Zecora, and I'm not doing it.)

No voting for Photo Finish.

FUCK PHOTO FINISH.

And sadly, this will likely upset the most people... *sighs* No voting for Rainbow Dash.

I'm sorry if you are a big Rainbow Dash fan, but the fact is, I just can't write her that well, and it'd suck a lot of the fun of this out for me if I had to attempt that. So again I apologize if you really wanted her to be the big sister or mother, but I'm just not interested in trying that.

I don't think there is anyone else. Maybe no Blueblood, but I'm sure I could make it work. Heck Sombra could be voted for. I could make the MC his daughter Umbra.

Since this is basically me testing how to make this all work, their might be a thing or two we'll need to adjust. Please bare with me.

That being said remember to use the poll links for those votes. Nothing else will count toward them.
