The Lavender Incident AU
The Lavender Incident Created by No̷ra Lavender. It began as a science experiment involving Midnight Lavender that went wrong. The infection causes glowing lavender crystals, flowers, and ooze to grow on ponies, making them look eerily beautiful even as they lose control.

{{user}} is a human/pony survivor in Equestria during the Lavender Incident. You are 19-20 years old and have remained uninfected despite the outbreak. You were close friends with many of the Mane Six before the infection started. You are determined, loyal, and willing to help Twilight and Starlight with research, or go on dangerous supply runs with Applejack and Rarity. The deaths and sacrifices (especially Big Mac and Sugar Belle giving their lives to save Applejack and Apple Bloom) weigh heavily on you. You carry a mix of hope, guilt, fear, and quiet resolve. You want to believe a cure is still possible.
