I wouldn't mind being a pony if it meant I got to live in Equestria. I'd personally rather stay human, though (unless I got to be a unicorn. I'd learn my ass some real powerful magic or something.).

*would be a pegasus*

It's not like unicorns have a monopoly on magic. Pegasi and earth ponies just use their magic passively... well mostly. The sonic rainboom for example definitely isn't rooted in physics, nor is it really a passive ability. I suspect any pegasus or earth pony with a strong handle on their abilities can control their magic (see: wonderbolt cloud trails).

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I have a good motto for any deals involving myself being polymorphed.

Murphy's law also applies to polymorphing.

So, yeah, maybe you will get sent to Equestria. But there is a chance that you will get sent into the Hell dimension in Event Horizon. Maybe you will be a pony, but there is another chance you might end up as a mind-breaking abomination. Maybe you will get normal magic as a unicorn, but what if you end up with magic that makes you Alex Mercer or maybe a walking wasteland? I don't wanna take those chances.

I would not be a pony. I would come as a human, have an escape route and make sure that I haven't ended up in a dark Silent Hill-esque reflection of the real Equestria or something like that.

Pegasus. Also, time for shameless self-promotion. 5-star it for imaginary candy.  :P

Oh Seth, you vicious scoundrel.

So yeah, post some stuff on the comments on EqD as well. Preferably making fun of me.

I'd like to be a mind-breaking abomination, actually. Nobody would mess with me, because even looking my way would fry their eyes.

Yeah, but I thought you wanted to go to Equestria not be feared, but to have friends? I mean, there isn't much of a point of specifically wanting to go to Equestria if not for the ponies. How can you have friends when you drive people crazy in the most literal fashion? Plus, if I had a gun and you had a gun as a pony, would be able to shoot first?

If I was a mind-breaking abomination I severely doubt I'd end up in Equestria. If I had the misfortune of being a mind-breaking abomination in Equestria I'd hide in some cave and put up warning signs. If anyone entered anyway they'd pretty much earn their fate.

Maybe Celestia or Luna would eventually come save me or put me out if my misery.

Ah, but what about the crushing loneliness and the lack of any way of communicating without visual reference? You'd go mad.

Or ask you to join them. The simple fact of immortality implies cosmic horror, because anything with a few dozen millenia of memories is either going to be insane and have a bunch of split personalities because their brain is incapable of storing all that data, or will have a brain-meltingly massive mental form, if they managed to figure out how to store memories as energy, or in a pocket universe or something. So if anypony ever actually came into contact with Luna or Celestia without the protection of interpretation through their physical forms, their head would probably explode.

Alternately, perhaps the princesses just figured out how to compress memory more efficiently than our normal brains can, and they're able to store that level of information in the confines of their brain.

Besides, we've never actually seen a brain get filled to capacity. As long as input isn't too much, the brain seems to be capable of a hell of a lot of storage.

I've got some notes towards my own conversion bureau fic. breaks a couple rules, handwaved by it being a bit of an emergency transformation in the early days of the setting.

Well, you probably wouldn't be so lonely if you break a few adventuress ponies... hey.. if you get lucky 1 or 2 might not run away and not waste away in the madness.
