I am now certain you update purposefully on days where I have to wait hours before I can read it.
Jackie Chan, he is not.
6942440
6942463
Agreed. Derren's more like Chris Tucker.
6942519 Wouldn't he be Bruce Willis in this chapter?
Y'know after that little bit of phychic sparring, I think Imma hop aboard the DerrenXFaran ship.
Can't wait till one of the ponies explains hearding to him...
The silence conversation bit made me laugh a little too loud. The byplay of those two is just awesome. As for Vinyl's stage personality, I can only say one thing.

Its a pity Der-Bear isnt enjoying himself greatly, he couldve gone with the Official Happiest Tune of Western Civilisation of the last 50 years.
Dont Stop Me Now by Queen.
Course, 1999 is a perfectly good alternative, unless youre in Spaaaaace, then Luna gets really annoyed with you, especially if you got her drunk and shes taking the moon fo a joyride round the constelations.
I never suspected that wub was the fifth element... and that its catalyst was booze. Seriously though, that stage persona is absolute terror... buuut maybe that's just because I'm not the party type to begin with. In Derren's shoes, I might well've thrown said shoes at the Wubmaster as a distraction and ran like Hell. Cries of 'NOPE' could be heard as a far as the Everfree. That said, still funny... wait, if drunk enough I could see... holy shit it IS the catalyst.... damn... well done...
The interaction with Faran though? Definitely the high point here; that was simply amazing.
Wow, Vinyl apparently wanted some sweet monkey bum.
Aw yiss. More Faran. More Derren.
I'm as happy as a pervert in a pantie convention. (Are those a thing? )
Can I have some more please?

Why do I get the feeling that there will be Carrot Top jokes coming?
Octavia really needs to stop spiking Vinyl's drink.
Cloudchaser, control yourself.

Damn it.
Good ol' Xenogears.
That's just blasphemous.
funny enjoyable chapter, and the comments said almost everything I could have... except for one little thing... with the way things ended off, in who's bed will he wake up in? or better yet, who will wake up in bed with him?
drunkdrank.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/How-much-did-I-drink-last-night.jpg
or perhaps something like this...
dudelol.com/img/oh-god-what-happened-last-night.jpeg
You are giving ideas with that whole Pink Enigma thing Jimbo. We have no idea where those idea could end up either.
The morning after shenanigans should be thoroughly entertaining.
6942859
He's both. He's Chris Tucker to Big Mac's Jackie Chan, and Bruce Willis to Vinyl's Chris Tucker.
6943297
Yeah, what can I say? Despite Derren's distaste for the tsundere archetype, he can't help getting closer to that smexy tsundere Irish pone.
6943369
Actually, that's just Vinyl's stage persona - almost as sexually aggressive as Winningverse Cloud Kicker. And yes, Derren will eventually meet Cloud Kicker, and quickly find himself wanting an adult.
6943884
No sexy drunken shenanigans planned just yet. (That's
cummingcoming in the Hearts and Hooves Day chapter.) However, RD will be pranking him as a result of his lapse of sobriety.6945036 So he'll be waking up with Rainbow's sleeping body snuggled up against him and no idea how she got there. That sounds like a perfect prank to me.
Fifth element, anyone?
Oh totally!
6952384
That was the idea.
See the author's notes.
6948397
She has a bit more in mind than mere Bedmate Reveal shenanigans for this prank (though I'm not ruling out including it).
6952610 Of course she does. I was honestly figuring she would pretend they did have sex for as long as she could keep herself from laughing and then tease him about it relentlessly after the fact.
Not sure why, but a thought occurred... that in itself isn't the weird part, be nice.
Faran's cutie mark... I suddenly get it. The cross is obvious; she was drawn to the medical field. But her special talent in that field: a preternaturally high level of empathy, a mystical knack for nonverbal communication. She can get her point across without saying a word. What else can do that? Why, a goddamned lochaber axe, of course!
6956843
As one of my favorite Babylon 5 quotes goes, "You can get more with a kind word and a two-by-four than you can with just a kind word." Faran is that two-by-four. (Or lochaber axe, as the case may be. )
6956490
Funny thing is, my plan for the chapter has been updated to include something along those lines. As for the rest of her prank, let's just say that it involves the pony version of a certain tradition when finding someone who's pass-out drunk at a party.
6956990 Sweet! I'm glad I was able to help you torment Darren more thoroughly and amusingly because this is sounding like it is going to be absolutely epic.
Now to see if he manages to remain calm enough to turn the tables on Rainbow because he could pull a fantastic reversal here if he realizes she snuggled up to him as a prank. I highly doubt he will unless she wakes him up while pulling the prank and he has the presence of mind to pretend to be asleep which is unlikely on both counts, but he could embarrass the hell out of her by baby talking her about how sweet it was that she wanted to cuddle up with him and how cute she is as he pets her and refuses to let go. Oh well, it's a joke that will keep for later because he can definitely call her out on her cuddling after the fact even if it won't be as funny.
Disagree with "Victorian era tech". They have arcade videogames, even backwater towns like Applewood have electricity and Manehettan brimmed with skyscrapers. In Coloratura show we see some advanced floodlights and very big speakers.
I think that they "main" tech level around 1900-1930 with occasional glimpse of 1970-1980 level tech (like videogames)
6965515
Don't forget the industrial-sized pet hair dryer
6942519 I thought Vinyl was more like Chris Tucker, here
Also, my favorite line, thus far in this fic;
I wonder how many people got the reference?
7007654
Three so far, including you.

I apologize for the lateness of my reply. I wish I had a valid excuse, but I don't.
There's a couple of things to keep in mind here: Derren hasn't seen a lot of the things you're talking about. He hasn't seen much of Ponyville yet, so he doesn't know about the arcade or anything like that, and the only other place in Equestria he's been is Canterlot, which tends to aggressively maintain a Victorian aesthetic outside of the Institute. (Not to mention the fact that he only has the word of the ponies there about technological developments in Equestria to go on - not that they'd have any reason to lie to him. "Trust, but verify," as Reagan once said.)
The other consideration is that many of what we would deem "modern conveniences" are the result of magitech, which in this version of Equestria means "relatively rare and expensive*." My headcanon for this fic has Button Mash receiving his Joy Boy from a rich uncle.
Regardless, Derren will likely be revising his assessment of Equestria's base "pure" technology level upwards as the series progresses.
* The exception here, of course, is medical technology. Their baseline medical knowledge as far as diseases and how to treat them is comparable to Earth's, and any magitech involved in medical care is easier to produce, and thus more common, than most forms of magitech.
Wonder if Derren will be able to weaponize Heartsongs like some protagonists have done in other stories? Like say if confronted by changelings, he starts a session of David Bowie's 'Magic Dance' and slips away while the bugs boogie.
7009181 Well, people need to watch more Mel Brooks, then

7013803 from "The Labyrinth?" That's bucking brilliant!
7056490
It was honestly just the first song that came to mind, considering I was listening to the Labyrinth soundtrack not long before reading that chapter.

Can someone please tell me how to embed a youtube video?
7059353
FiMFic's YouTube tag doesn't work with link shorteners. You're going to have to use the full-length link.
Like this:
I wonder what would happen if he started singing something from KISS.
7079195
The multiverse would implode! It must never come to pass!
Actually, probably not much, beyond pony bemusement.
hooooweeee! that was really really really really good!
nice fic! really funny with those puns and how ponies groan!
more pls! and thank you!
Favourited, liked, and tracked.
Looking forward to updates.
7102936
Awesome. I'm working on the next chapter. I hope to release it... sometime...
7106358
Yeah, sorry. I would laughed if it wasn't something I've read quite a lot.
7106369
Yup, I actually read that just a few days before I read this one. What a roller coaster.
7106564
I'd rather sooner than later if that's okay with you.
Even if you have a real life, because real life's for chumps.
JimboTex hears a dry, detached voice in his mind. "We need to talk. ...I realize that it can be a lot to handle, being an Instrument of the Purpose. I'd like to say there was something I could do to fix that, but my opposite and I must obey the rules of the game. To do otherwise would invite chaos beyond anything that pink pony and the draconequus could dream up working together... and you don't want to see that. I know, you're probably thinking 'Why me?'... because they always do. But there's no good answer. It has to be you. You started this, and until you continue to walk forward all we can do is continue to witness the same EVENT over and over. It'd be like reading the same chapters of an unfinished story waiting for the author to pick up the quill again." JimboTex can practically hear the voice turning more wry as it moves onto a less meaningful point. "Also... there's this pony... some lesser archivist in Canterlot. Sunny... Basil? Oregano? Some name, not important. He's making noise about the whole thing. Make no mistake, even by pony standards he's harmless; I think he has old fruit he's going to try and throw at us. But I have to admit he has a point; you should update soon, if you can. I'll be around."
7155165
Yeah, I'd like to apologize for that. I've been having a bit of a low period, both in creativity and in mood. The fact that my job has been sucking a lot of my energy doesn't help matters, either. However, I'm going to try to make some semblance of progress today before I have to go in for work.
(BTW, nice job on putting an Eddings-esque quality to your comment. Putting "EVENT" in all caps is an especially nice touch. "Why me?" indeed. )
7155173 Eh, I can understand that much. My main job is pretty mind numbing at best; the secondary is generally tedious. Further, I've written all of nothing here... so far... so even were I actually complaining I'd have no right to. Sorry things have been low; remember that you have support you can reach out to even if it doesn't seem like it. ...Hmm, to hit another of your frequent references, I'm reminded of the pastor's speech to Sheridan in B5 about helping clean someone else's house being more rewarding than cleaning your own. If you need a sounding board or whatnot, I'm sure there's those you can reach out to. They want to help more than you might realize. Yeesh, even I'm here saying this, and I'm lazy AND unsociable. Hang in there.
7155192
Thanks for the support. I'll be sure to seek you out if I need to.
Incidentally, I remember the fictional preacher you mention. I think my favorite part of the episode he appeared in was this exchange with another minor character and Commander Ivanova:
Rev. Dexter: But it says in the Bible to make a joyful noise unto the Lord!
Brother Theo: [grinning] I've heard you sing, Will. And take my word for it, that is not what the Good Lord had in mind when He said, "a joyful noise"!
Susan Ivanova: Hello?!
Brother Theo: And neither is that.
Was this a reference to the fuckin' 5th element?! XD I got that vibe from this portion of the fic, aside of course for the 'Popping cherry' line.
7351110
Yeah, basically. Derrenverse Vinyl's pretty much the pony version of Ruby Rhod when onstage.
It seems I'm the only person who wants to abuse the music of harmony with "baby got back".
8063006
I'm rereading your story. Also, as I was reading, I was sure the first song was 'princes of the universe' by Queen.
