Favorite HiE Fics?

Alrighty, so I was just wondering, but does anyone have any favorite human in Equestria fanfictions that they would like to recommend to others?

 

Moved this over to Sugarcube Corner as it is asking about go ideas for fan created content consumption.

I've been away from fanfiction for like, months, but at this point I probably have a solid hundred or so I've read through (honestly, lost count). There was a time I spent well... way too much time reading them.  :okiedokielokie:

 

Anyways!

 

A Voice Among Strangers kinda sold me on the genre originally, though I never finished it. I think it's been "updated" in the form of A Stranger Among the Voices. Great story involving a language barrier, a girl getting nabbed by the wrong ponies, and kinda dealing with an alien world with the help of her friends. Somewhat more realistic than many interpretations in my own opinion, and I liked it for it.

No, I'm Not a Brony, Get Me Outta Equestria! was kinda good, and has a few different time line follow ups. Interesting enough, and thankfully uses a protagonist that isn't deadset on befriending ponies. 

The Rise of Darth Vulcan was slightly cathartic, but the interest kinda waxed and waned for me. Was nice after all the cliches of humans befriending errypony.

Your Human and You explored some interesting stuff, and while it gets a little too special-ish sometimes, it was still a great read, and by no means did they rush through things. There's a romance between said human and Twilight, but it was kind of endearing, and very drawn out so you could actually see things develop in a believable way.

Gentleman for Mares, while technically clop, I loved for some of the character development and writing. It had a certain life to it that feels fairly rare in fanfiction, as by comparison a lot of stories (mostly not on this list) feel a little stilted.

Exchange was a fairly lovely piece, featuring a romance between Celestia and said human. Takes a good bit of liberty with the world/characters, but it was funny and endearing all the same.

1000 Virgin Mares, 1 Frickin' Badass Dark Overdude, Infinite Facehoofing, I found quite funny in a refreshing way. I'm not sure how long that stays solid as it goes on, but the first few chapters, I loved. Very much an alternate universe situation though.

 

Aaaand, probably one of my highest ranked now that I think about it: Diary of a Store Clerk

I have not seen an update from it in quite some time, but it was probably the most refreshing in terms of humor and writing of the group.

 

I have several more on my favorites list from when I regularly read through new stories, but these are the main ones I remember things about and like enough to recommend.

In no particular order. All of them on fimfiction.

 

You And Your Human, by MadMaxtheBlack. A human ends up in a world where humans are little but animals and are often owned by ponies as pets. 

 

The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum, by redskin122004. A human from a world where his species fights for its very existence against an Equestria that wishes to destroy his species. Somehow he ends up in a world that is very much like canon Equestria.

 

Shepard's R&R, by ed2481. Shepard in it, enough said. 

 

Gentleman for Mares, by Demon Eyes L. A human becomes a gigolo for mares.

 

Xenophilia, by AnonponyDASHIE. A romantic story about a human coming to terms with falling in love with an alien that looks like a pony.

 

Her Whole Darn Heart, by Crowley. A second person, very sweet human x pony story with Applejack.

 

Nothing Is Set In Stone, by Zamairiac. A human as child ends up in Equestria and when he grows up he becomes very close to Princess Cadence. 

 

Mares and Butterflies, by doomguy. A second person, very sweet human x pony story with Twilight Sparkle.

I'm not a huge fan of HiE fics, but a few that I do enjoy would include:

 

Through the Eyes of Another Pony, one of the first fics I read after joining the fandon, wherein a brony suddenly finds himself in Equestria as a pony. Shenanigans ensue.   

 

Misunderstandings, named so because there's a language barrier preventing the human from communicating at first. 

 

Arrow 18 Mission Logs: The Lone Ranger and Sparkle's Notes, another story with an initial language barrier. Set in a future where a human astronaut with a prototype FTL drive travels to and lands on Equestria. Sparkle's Notes is Twilight's perspective on events.

 

The Elements of Harmony and the Saviors of the Worlds, grown up G1 Megan arrives in Equestria.  

 

Mass Effect 2 - DLC: The Equestrian Equation. Not a typical HiE story, because although Shepard does find himself in Equestria, it becomes apparent that something is very wrong with this world.

I liked "A Dark Knight for Equestria", follows  THE GODDAMN BATMAN ending in Equestria because of some spell by Morgana le Fay

I remember a GTA4 crossover fic, where Niko ended in Equestria for a while. No gory, but it was plain funny. I think it's cancelled though

My favorite though, is "Tales of Prince Onix", a human who died in our world at childbirt, but ended in Equestria and he's adopted by Celestia

Xenophilia isn't bad, but has some explicit sex scenes in it  Rise of Darth Vulcan is also good, but unfinished.

my additions to this list

History Repeats by SalddleSoapOpera  Luna sends Dash to get an older Megan to help with a return of the Smooze.  Some slight problems.  1) The Flutterponies beat the Smooze the 1st time & there ain't none no more. 2) Megan is suffering PTSD & not really up for this.  I've heard that the Smooze is returning this season, but I'd bet this is better.

My Little Balladeer Highly recommend for any fans of Wellman's John the Balladeer stories.  Good even if you are not.

 

Not a big fan of the subgenre, so that's all I've got.

 

Oh yeah, going the other way.  All -American Girl by Shinzakura is excellent.  It is the sequel to Kind Hearts and Coronets, but you don't have to read that one 1st to follow it.

Dose Turnabout Storm count as HiE? 

Yes Phoenix Wright is a human... Last I checked 
And he was in Equestria... Last I checked 

My favorite HiE Story that I never really saw as an HiE story was Turnabout Storm and that's probably cause I never saw it as an HiE story. 

Please forgive me as i don't mean to offend anyone but I think most HiE stories are pretty much trash cause 90% of the time its

 

so i was walkin dow the steet the othr day and i got home and got to bed then i woke up in equestria oh nohs hows am I gonja gat baq hom let me meet the mane 6 and one may have horsey horse sax with me oh no I cant gat hom looks like im stuck here watever did i do to deserve this comfort me twilight senpai! what that? you can trn me into pon and i can liv here wit you yay

THE END

 

I don't like the HiE genre, never have, I really didn't see its appeal, and I kinda still don't. The only way I can see myself enjoying HiE is to forget that I'm watching/ reading an HiE story, and thats what Turnabout Storm did.

 

I recommend Turnabout Storm to anyone who likes Phoenix Wright and MLP fan, just be sure to search it up on youtube as it's a video series, not a fanfic.
