A possible plot is that there's a competition in the school, and both Smolder and Ocellus enter it. At first, they are rivals, but then they realize that they can achieve more if they team up. As they train and compete together, they start to develop deeper feelings for one another. Their combined skills, like Smolder's physical strength and Ocellus' shape - shifting and magic, give them an edge in the competition, and their relationship evolves throughout the story.
Another plot could be that they get lost in an unknown part of Equestria during a field trip. They must rely on each other to find their way back. Along the way, they encounter various challenges like dealing with unfriendly creatures or difficult terrains. This adventure would strengthen their bond as they face difficulties side by side. And through this, they might discover new things about themselves and their feelings for each other.
One plot idea could be that Smolder and Ocellus have to work together on a school project in the School of Friendship. They initially have different approaches due to their different species' natures, but as they spend more time together, they learn from each other and form a strong friendship that might turn into something more. For example, Smolder's more straightforward and bold attitude could inspire Ocellus to be more assertive, while Ocellus' creativity and knowledge of magic could help Smolder in unexpected ways.
Smolder is a dragon, so her strength and natural inclination towards hoarding could play a role. For instance, she might be protective of Ocellus in a way that's similar to how she guards her treasures. Her fiery nature can also add drama, like when she gets angry or passionate about something. Ocellus, being a changeling, can use her shape - shifting abilities. She could transform into different forms to help them in various situations, like becoming a small creature to access a tight space or imitating an important figure to gain an advantage. Their different species traits can create interesting conflicts and resolutions in the fanfiction.
One popular MLP Smolder fanfic could be 'Smolder's Adventure in the Dragon Lands'. It might explore her backstory and her relationships with other characters from her homeland. Another could be 'Smolder and the Magic Crystal' which could involve her on a quest to find a special crystal with magical properties.
A great plot for MLP Friendship Games fanfiction could be that there's a malfunction in the portal between Equestria and the human world during the games. As a result, some of the pony versions of the characters start appearing in the human world during the games. This creates chaos as they don't understand the human world rules and the Equestria girls have to quickly teach them while still trying to win the games.
One idea could be Discord causing chaos in Equestria that only the Mane 6 can stop with their unique friendship powers. For example, he might mix up the elements of harmony, and the ponies have to go on a quest to put them back in order while dealing with Discord's wacky challenges.
Perhaps there is a portal that connects Cybertron and Equestria. Some ponies accidentally end up on Cybertron and are shocked by the mechanical world. The Transformers have to help them get back home. Meanwhile, some Autobots are curious about the ponies' world and decide to accompany them. This leads to a cultural exchange of sorts between the two groups, with lots of misunderstandings at first but then growing respect and friendship.
One interesting plot idea is the transfer of Naruto's ninja skills to the ponies in the MLP world. Imagine a pony using shadow clones or rasengan. It's a really cool concept that combines the action - packed nature of Naruto with the colorful and magical world of MLP.
One idea could be that Harry Potter and his friends accidentally end up in the world of My Little Pony. They could learn about the magic of friendship in Equestria, which is different from the magic they know in the wizarding world. Maybe they help the ponies fight a dark force using their unique spells.
Well, perhaps in this fanfiction's alternate universe, the Mane 6 are all from different species.

It could also be that they are in a post - apocalyptic Equestria, and they are on a quest to find the elements of harmony which have been scattered and lost.
Maybe the Ghost Rider's powers are somehow connected to an ancient magic in Equestria. He could be on a quest to find out the origin of his powers and in the process, he befriends Rainbow Dash.
