I have no issues believing that Zecora is female. Her voice is slightly androgynous, but really it sounds like a slightly husky female voice. It's unique, and I like it. The rhyming however... Well let's just say I don't have too much of an issue that she didn't get much screen time. XP

So this means that Midnight is the cause of all insanity in the history of the world. Her existence now has warped back in time, causing random people throughout history to lose their minds just due to the sheer drool inducing cuteness power that she holds.

Leaving the library under cover of night, out the window, away from Spike, away from her parents, away from Ponyville... Leaving before discovery, lest she be stopped at her weakest.
Flying...flying...how was she flying...she was a unicorn, she had no wings, and yet, the world was far below her hooves...Freedom, Freedom in so long, the air rushing past their body...
A moonless night, Luna's eye turned away from them...this moment carefully chosen by her, her former self could not know until it was time...
A new residence, the same cave she had heard in Momma's stories about Aunt Fluttershy and the dragon...It was a dank, miserable place, but it would have to do, from here, she would be able to observe while she was fully reborn into the world, and could take the steps necessary to ensure she was never alone...
A frantic search, watched from afar. Her family, her friends, most of all her three mothers, all of them desperately searching for their loved one, the one that they had raised from birth. Her Mom, weeping, being held tight by her Momma. It was a momentary pain, a pain to be endured. She had endured more, but the one she loved, the one who would ensure she was never alone, she suffered terribly at the sight, no matter what she said...
Hurting them, hurting them, this wasn't right...she wanted nothing more than to reach out, to hold them, but she wouldn't let her, not yet, not yet. Soon. Shhh...
Drinking from a puddle, seeing her reflection. Her purple pelt dark, her hair drifting in the non-existent winds. Two wings, comprised of a galaxy of miniature stars, extending from her back.
Her eyes were green.
Time. It was time. She was strong once more. The world would love her, she would force all of Equestria to, and in turn, she would love her, for the gift of Equestria.
Love. This was all about love. But love wasn't selfish. It wasn't supposed to be taking, it was about giving. She had watched...she had watched them still searching for her, all this time. She had hurt them, left *them* alone. No more.
She looked down at the world that would soon be theirs, and spread her wings.
And in the darkness, she gathered her strength, and let the love that she was given, and the love that she gave, start to burn bright...
Have I ever told you you are an amazingly talented writer and storyteller? Because you seriously are.

The Elements.
They were the immediate danger. She did not know if they would have the same effect as they did as her former self, but they had defeated her twice before. She could not take that risk. Not with what was at stake now.
But she had realized it, the Elements weakness. Six Elements there were, therefore six Ponies made the balance of Harmony. Remove one, and the balance was destroyed. Remove one, and the others could not stop her.
Kindness. That was the one she had chosen. The one who lived far enough from the others that they would not be able to attempt a rescue. There she was, tending to her animals.
Aunt Fluttershy! Aunt Fluttershy! Can I help feed the bunnies?
There was no need for subterfuge. She was but a pegasus without the others, and one beset by fear at that. She landed before the stunned, custard pelted pony, bathing the pegasus in all of her glory.
T-Thanks for the splint, Aunt Fluttershy...I guess I was putting my hooves before my head. Oh, my Mommas are gonna kill me..
The look on her face. Shock, yes, but not fear. Relief...relief and worry. Kindness took a step forwards, not a step back. She called out her name.
Here, Aunt Fluttershy, let me pour the tea. It's easier for me.
Why...Why was she hesitating? She had but invoke the magic that was on the tip of her horn, and Flutter...and Kindness would be no more of a threat. The Elements would no longer be a threat. It was so simple.
Did you *really* stop a dragon, Aunt Fluttershy?
No! No, for her sake, she would do this!
The magic was invoked. Fluttershy's eyes widened, as she began to dissolve into colorful smoke, a bottle appearing before her. A single word escaped her lips, her name once again. She turned her head from those eyes filled with betrayal, before Fluttershy disappeared into smoke, the wisps filling the bottle and sealed inside.
It was done. She was victorious.
Then, what...what was this feeling inside her?
It's guilt.
She had done what she had needed. She had eliminated the threat to her plan. Then why...why did her chest feel so heavy?
You feel guilty because you love her. After all, I should know...
Something was rolling down her cheeks.
You've been with me all my life...
They were tears...
You are channeling some serious Stephen King here. I love it. Wait, midnight, are you literally channeling Stephen King?

Negative Temperatures:
Spoiler
The difficulty here is that temperature and negative temperature share a name, but they're really like apples and oranges. Temperature is something that classifies an equilibrium system (one that's had time to come to rest in a configuration that is the most favorable) while negative temperature is inherently a property of non-equilibrium systems (which are still in flux of some sort). Basically, there exists an equation that relates a system's configuration to its energy content; after everything has had time to come to rest, even at the highest possible temperature (mathematically, infinite temp) there should be equal amounts of the system in the high and low energy states.
In a non-equilibrium situation, it is possible to have more of the system in the higher-energy state; given time, this configuration will relax and return to equal parts in the two states, but while it is out of equilibrium, the equation technically defines its temperature as being negative. However, since you must put in energy to excite the system to this non-equilibrium state, and temperature is equivalent to energy (in some sense), negative temperatures require more energy to achieve and are thus 'hotter' than even infinite (equilibrium) temperature.
Basically, it's a problem of definition and the fact that thermal energy is 'random' and just as likely to excite one part of the system as de-excite another (so on average the populations will be equal even at very high temp), while other types of energy are 'focused' and can specifically target the low-energy states, exciting them and yielding negative temperature (non-equilibrium) states.
Matter Overlap:
Spoiler
There are some complications to this, but essentially the picture is that there are two fundamental types of matter. For one type, called bosons, two identical particles can exist at the same spatial point at the same time (in fact, more than two can; a large number can all be exactly on top of one another). For the other type, called fermions, this simply isn't allowed. No matter how hard you push them together, there is no chance of getting them to occupy the same space at the same time. Most 'normal' matter is made up of fermions (electrons, protons, neutrons, etc are fermions) so we're most used to this behavior (it is part of the reason solid objects are considered to be solid). Bosons are more exotic and less familiar (light particles, liquid helium) but have some very unique properties (liquid helium can flow uphill, for example).
@Kindablue: Well, I'm a grad student in physical chemistry (although it's more physics than chem) and I do theoretical work (mostly numerical) in quantum mechanics. (Wow that sounds pretentious when I say it that way...)
You know what?

The fic itself isn’t actually that bad. Not good enough to be worth as much hype as it gets, but it’s not bad by any stretch.

Friendship isn't absolute obedience.
The doors to the library were now undefended, the last shelter of those unchanged open to her.
What you are doing to protect me from loss and loneliness will only insure it. Love and friendship can only come from ponies being ponies, to clash and mingle, and to remember that we are never, truly, alone, unless we give up on them.
She knew that.
She knew that.
She knew she had failed her. She knew that she had misunderstood, had allowed her own worry, pain and doubt to misguide her, and now...and now...
Only because she wanted to protect her...
Only because she loved her...
It's not too late. I understand the spell now. It can be so easily broken. We can stop this.
It was too late. They would never forgive her now. Nopony would ever look at her in the same way, they would hate her, they would never love her again.
The best...the best she could offer her was this.
The doors to the library shattered open.
You're wrong.
There they were. The remaining ponies. Her remaining Aunts.
There they were. Front and center, her Momma and her Mom, slowly stepping towards her.
It's not too late for forgiveness.
There was fear in their eyes...but not for themselves. Fear for her. Desperation, but not for their plight, but hers.
They forgave Momma Luna.
They were here. The Princesses, Princess Mommy and Gammy, in all their glory. If she were to defeat them, she would need to capture her Momma now. But, they were not full of wrath, but love, and the words they were speaking, all four of them, not just them, all of them...
They forgave Mom.
Come back to us.
Let us help you.
Don't give up on us.
We love you.
They will forgive you.
Please....
Please...
I forgive you.
Knees buckled. Tears spilled. They collapsed to the floor.
They spoke, for the first time, as one.

Each thing you write floors me with its emotion, quality, and ability to wrap me up completely and totally in the story.

Obviously magic could do those things to the six ponies, but Zecora supposedly can't do magic. Maybe that's her reason for dismissing the "curse" idea.
She does it again in Feeling Pinkie Keen, dismissing the idea that Pinkie's sense could be magic, or similar to magic anyway. Her given reason there is pretty lame, but it would be reasonable if she assumed non-unicorns can't possibly do magic (which might be wrong too)
I think this is the most likely option, to be honest. However, I’m a fan of the theory that all ponies have some latent magic; this is how Pegasi can stand on / manipulate clouds, and how all ponies can pick things up with their hooves. Magic that they have learned to control as they grew older without ever realizing it was magic in the first place.

You actually have a point. By all means, she should have remembered this when referring to Pinkie’s Pinkie Sense.

Yeah. Basically this. Although Pinkie Sense is still unique when it comes to latent magic. The aura of weakness in the fourth wall that surrounds her 24/7 is what allows her latent magic to access knowledge of the future and manifests as such. Pinkie has just learned to interpret the involuntary twitches that her body receives from this meta overload.

…Dear god sir. I never thought I’d see this comparison made. Now I need to watch Kung Pow again. We played a “Moxie Drinking Game” to that once. Every time someone does something stupid, take a drink.
…We went through three liters of soda. Each.

Seriously. I had it stuck in my head all day today at work, and it's been at least a week since the last time I watched that episode! It will never leave. It's like the DuckTales theme song, but with Ponies. I'll be humming it as an old gray man on my deathbed, long after I've forgotten where it came from.
I'm half convinced that the only reason I like it is because if I didn't, I'd go absolutely insane.

Inside each is a tiny filly Midnight, vestiges from when cutting open EsperDerek was a thing, and he'd need replacement parts.
Almost everypony but me forgot they were up there, and what was supposed to be discrete organs and organ systems have had the time to become full ponies. It's a lonely job, growing and tending to a field of comatose Midnights, but at least I get to eat well. ;D
I presume cutting open EsperDerek was before my time in Ponythread.

I'm drinking some milkychocolateycoffee drink, and Braz, who delivered it, reads aloud "*looks up Patterson's curse* Wow, everything in Australia really does try to kill you".
I laugh, because it's funny, Y'know? But I've got a mouthful of milk, so I have to be careful.
Well, snortling apparently creates suction, as the narrowed air passage due to moustache interference causes me to vacuum seal my right nostril shut.
This normally wouldnt be a problem, except my left is apparently stuffed and I didn't notice. So now I'm trying to blow open my nostril so I can breathe, or drink the mouthful of milk, so I can breathe.
Neither of Which is happening.
So what next? Why, while still laughing, I manage to avoid shooting milk up into my nose... By firmly juggling I between tonsils and diaphragm.
So now I'm choking on milk. Bad. And of course, Braz just starts laughing, because I fall over.
It's about 6 seconds later, and finally while laughing/choking I manage to eject the milk from my larynx enough to breathe. Momentum being what it is, the milk keeps going, and now I'm cleaning the wall.
So thanks, pony thread.
And a special thanks to you, Thanqol, for bringing this upon me. I don't ven live in Australia; talking to an Australian over the internet is enough for australia to try and kill you.
*cough*
You made me die laughing at work. Like face turning purple from lack of oxygen. Ahhhh, Schadenfreude. I’m glad your okay, but holy heck man.

I am so retardedly burnt out by this that I’m killing it here. I made one HELL of a valiant effort though. SERIOUSLY. THIS IS 62 PAGES IN MICROSOFT WORD.
Why did I do this.
Oh right.
There’s a reason that my typical greeting is the way it is!
HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHA!
Also. Something I specifically want EsperDerek to see, so it's pulled out: My response to the Midnight Mare story.
Spoiler
Esper. I have bookmarked the individual post page for this. Seriously, I have no critique, I find no fault. If there is a mechanical fault with the story somewhere, I literally can not discern it for how well the story sucks me in, even now on my… fourth read through? Please submit this to Equestria Daily. The Midnight saga needs to continue for the masses, and good lord this is more than a worthy continuance.

Too bad he's a skeezy 'talent manager' that lures ponies, horses, and ..small mice children into watching Michael Jackson pony and drugs them to steal their shadows for a greedy wizard-cloud-of-smoke. (No, I'm not kidding. MLP & Friends, 4-part episode called Bright Lights. You can find it on YouTube.)

Do you take requests? Because there are suddenly so many ponies I want to see shoulder-fied...
Well, I'd be glad to take suggestions, after all, there's a lot of ponies out there, and my Shoulder Pony Nightmare Gun can only fire so many Shoulder Ponifying Blasts a day. ^^

Yeah, as EsperDerek stated, it was inspired by NiGHTS in certain designs. This is my nightmare design... because... well, since all dream ponies are ponies that show up at night, they're night mares. It doesn't matter if they're scary or funny or happy or bouncy or what not, they're still mares that visit at night. ^^

I offer a hundred Internets if you can draw a shoulder-pony Lyra. Bonus Internets and cookies if you managed to make her look slightly crazed.
