So a guy goes and buys a somethin from a shady merchant and-
You know what? You know what this is. It's got 'Displaced' right in the title. C'mon. You know exactly what is happening here.
Anyways, guy gets sent to Equestria with powers.
Copious amounts of dank memes occur.
Buckle up kids, your're going to have to go to the hospital after this.
That story I probably get banned for.

They warned me about going full retard.
I clearly did not listen.

Don't pat yourself on the back in your own comments section you douche.
6971540
You need to get over yourself already, man.
6971698 6971699 B-But the attention whoring, it's all I have left!
We need to go danker.
6971719 I fear the fabric of reality couldn't handle such a story.
6971540 Sometimes you need a good laugh. Also the reference was great. And yes, displaced is overrated
There was a disturbing lack of Twitch memes. What kind of clown fiesta is this?
5/7 worst memes.
Okay, before I actually read this, I want to point out that some kind of publishing error means that the word total is listed as 0.
6971737 The fabric of reality can handle This~~! (indicates self), I'm pretty sure you can safely go danker.
And now I have read it.
....
Your sardonic wit and mastery of sarcasm compel me to build shrines in your honor.
This wouldn't happen to be inspired by a recent comment I made, would it?
Well done, truly everyone who has laid eyes on this story can die in peace now.
Why am I so happy that you wrote this?
But yeah Displaced stories are WAY overrated. It's a person from the real world that is not only sent into another world but also turned into another known character from a different franchise which would be okay for the FIRST five decent stories like that but the others are ugh.
How about having said character to acquire the abilities from another series who learns from shadows of the characters from said series?
Like an Uchiha fan meeting a shadow of Itachi to master their sharingan or something?
Or a firebender learning from a shadow of Zuko?
My body, it wasn't ready.

>Twitch
Get that shit outta here.
6971781 Thankies.
6971824 Noooope. No idea what your talking about.
6971859 Becuase it satisfies your secret hatred for Displaced?
6971889 I'll alert the paramedics.
6971892
Secret hatred? I don't keep it a secret that I hate Displaced stories for the most part.
I wouldn't mind Displaced stories if they made an effort of being a little bit more original. I know that it's difficult but I hardy find the appeal in reading story after story of a human turned into a fictional character and sent to a different world.
I would prefer them gaining the abilities of another character but NOT become said character.
6971905 This guy gets it.
Finally the day has arrived, a good displaced story.
I never thought that I would live to see this day, thank you Shocks.
m.popkey.co/136a10/X03AG.gif
Wow.
You're such a fucking jerk. Displaced does not deserve all of this hate that it keeps on getting. Displaced stories are immense, lore-driven works of art that are far better than anything you can ever fucking write. Jump off a bridge and die, if I catch you writing one more 'Displaced' fic then I'll et Toby to fuck you up!
(Toby is my Displaced character and is well known in Displaced lore. He's sixteen, is from America, is way cool, and also has the powers of the christen God combined with the sexual appetite and finesse of Zeus. He's made cool and I ALREADY FUCKING TOLD YOU THAT HE IS NOT ME AND HE IS NOT OVERPOWERED! HIS PARENTS AND ENTIRE EXTENDED FAMILY WERE RAPED TO DEATH BY A MALL SANTA, THAT'S NOT EDGY, THAT'S A LEGIT TRAGIC BACKSTORY THAT EXPLAINS WHY HE GOT HIS POWER ALRIGHT!!!!!???)
Fucking jeez. You fucking Displaced haters!
6971917
Thank you.
Well I do have some ideas for Displaced type of stories like: A teen gaining the power of the Sage of Six Path's Chakra Cloak along with immortality, and developing his own style using it. And another somewhat based on the Overlord anime and RealiryCheck's Rise of Darth Vulcan.
Seriously guys, people that write or like Displaced stories, mixed it up a little will ya? I love characters like Itachi, Sasuke and others along with their powers but becoming an intimation of them is well just, no oh god no. It's actually worst than Gary Stus and Mary Sues.
The Merchant idea is fine for the most part. But please try something new. Please. I know being original is hard but please make an effort, don't make a Twilight (And I don't mean Twilight Sparkle) out of this.
* The main girl is so bland that any girl/women can put themselves in her shoes and be the one getting some from a eternally hot wannabe vampire which would explain why it was so popular.
I'll be honest, I wouldn't be bothered so much by the Displaced stories if it wasn't for the "tokens" they interrupt their stories with. The already Mary-Sueish plot is diluted by a circlejerk-journey to another Displaced universe which always ends up making the already overpowered characters even more so!
6971954
for some reason i sense sarcasm, i cant quite place it thou......
You know, if I had any writing talent, i'd make a story about a regular plain-as-day human. One who had no powers whatsoever, had genuine flaws, made mistakes, and was aware that they were not some nigh-immortal infallible being.
A human who uses common sense and some cleverness rather than pulling a Deus ex machina out of their ass. If and when they failed horribly, they paid for it. The scars last, and no amount of "magical band-aids" or "potion of trauma b-gone's" is going to fix them immediately.
To be perfectly honest, I liked this story, it points out a bunch of blatant flaws in a lot of Displaced fics. And while the idea of some Anon gaining phenomenal cosmic power from a Game, TV-show, Book, Etc.. Is a interesting gimmick, many of them would be far better if the writer either stuck with "I showed up here with fantastic powers from "insert source here" and this is what I would do." or " This is actually a character from "insert source here" and they showed up here, and this is what I think they would do".
But having a Mary Sue, who is 4th wall aware, is in a relationship with "insert name here" because they locked eyes with each other from across the room, and it was "Twoo Wuv". and is currently trading/borrowing/stealing that next power from the Displaced three universes over, to defeat the villain of the hour, because their current 43+ powers just aren't enough. Gets really old after the umpteenth time.
Anyway...
Rad story, got a good laugh out of it, especially the ending. Would be interesting to see a continuation of the misadventures of Rebecca Johnson and Co. VS the cringe-worthy Displaced.
6971889 Good, i like rape.
(Im truely sorry)
6971935 I live to serve.
6971954 Huh, bit more long winded than I'd expect Dropbear. Carry on.
6972291 Oh god, a continuation? That is certainly a very bad idea.
6971954 Huh, something about the displaced story now that just rubs me the wrong way? Godly like powers? Check. Sad (?) background? Check. Humble? Meh.
6972291 But there are a million "normal average joe" fics out there! They suck! they all suck! I don't care about average joe! I wanna know about a weird bastard with odd traits and an absolute non-standard mentality! Most of the displaced fics are "average joe with powers." They get powers.. but they're still boring, average joes. I don't want to relate to the character, I want to learn to empathize with someone I can't relate to at all. THAT is how you tell a good story!
6972496 Cmon. I wrote this in an hour! Just sit down and start writing.
I don't like displaced fics where the character dresses up as a villian and gets sent to equestria with all of their powers for evil and just uses them to. be a good guy. There is a megatron story out there that i refuse to read because he is good despite looking evil and fear inpiring. I mean im pretty sure if they were sent to a completly alien world where the dominate species are mud gollems then they would use their new powers to do what they want. If you dress up as a bad guy its because you think that they are cool at being evil, if i got alex mercer powers then i wouldnt care what i do cos im in a different world and i want to get my friends and family back. Even if i do befriend ponies i would alway pick my family, my home over them.
IN SHORT - IF YOU DRESS UP LIKE A BAD GUY ITS USUALLY BECAUSE YOU LIKE BEING BAD ON THE INSIDE
6972528
>No 'NOPONY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION'.
Y do u hate me?
6972528
Isn't Zuko a good guy by the end of the series anyway, so it is hard to lump him in the villains category. But yeah I agree this 'Zuko' was clearly a deranged A**wad before coming to Equestria
6972429
I think you misunderstood my point.
What I'm getting at is there are so many displaced stories where the protagonist is some god-like omnipotent being. but at the same time can't defeat the latest big-bad and are made to go (create/find/steal/be given) the next Item of power/plot convenience from another universe. Because they can't defeat the big-bad with what powers they already have. Instead of fleshing out their own world and story, they destroy any semblance of plot progression.
Seriously, which makes a better story?
"The protagonist learned that soon the big bad would be released of their prison to destroy the world, the protagonist and his friends/allies learn that the big bad can only be stopped by reactivating an ancient seal in a tomb. The tomb is foretold to be protected by ancient guardians. Despite the risk, they prepare to embark on the long journey to stop the big bad".
OR
" "Hey Protagonist, where were you?" "Oh nowhere just learned that a big bad could've gotten loose, so I went to an alternate reality where some guy gave me a Macguffin that locks away all evil forever." "Ah.." ".
Also :
And I disagree, you can totally have a good regular human story, Your Human and You. being a good example. Note that I haven't read all the way through that one yet so I may be wrong. Diaries of a Madman to a lesser extent.
And yeah, it's always nice to empathize with a character that has a unique personality, (looking' at you Nigel M Chalmers). but a unique personality can only get you so far. If they suffer from the above, then it's really hard for them to evolve as characters.
6972672 It's not you it's me, THE SPANISH INQUISITION, and when I say me I mean the moderators think it's too spamy
Is it bad that I kind of took this seriously and I knew I wasn't supposed to and I found Rebecca's story far more interesting and want to see her go around beating down displaced humans?
Maybe, I don't know.
6972870
Exactly! That's what I want to see!
Rebecca Johnson: The Displaced Wrangler!
6972919
Yeah, now I want implement displaced people into Wrath of the Harbinger even more so than I had planned. I should probably thank Shocks for inadvertently inspiring me.
.... What? I said should. That doesn't mean I will.
Probably.
The most succinct description of every single Displaced main character I've ever seen.
And here is the second-most succinct description of every single Displaced main character I've ever seen!
Ok, this has just earned a like.
Rebecca Johnson seems like she has a neat story that could be told. Wouldn't mind being "Displaced". I'll just dress up like Jimmy Olsen. Get the magic clothes and I'll be set. Why this guy? I don't need powers - I need to be healthy (also, want to try the ginger look). He's pretty healthy. I'll go get some help in pony land and see if they can fix my body and mind. If not... gave it a shot. I'll use the time to get my affairs in more order.
Sir, I must THANK YOU for writing this.
6971972
Agree
6972528 Well, I know which fire emblem fates side you would get. Although, I think it depends on how long you've been there and how well you were treated.
6971905
6971917
Would a Displaced story about a Displacer that is made of shadows and leads a faction of shadows interest either of you? If not then I'll shut up about Displaced while in both of you're comment sections.
6973593
As long as the Displacer doesn't become an intimation of another character and you break away from most of the over used elements of Displaced stories then yes. My advice check out the first episode of the anime 'Overlord'.
6972716 I assume you enjoyed?
6972870 6972919 6973032 ...Guys, she was just a supporting character.
6973071 You're quite welcome.
6972990 [x] Get Alondro to comment on my story.
6974883 I suppose for future reference, no one has to defend their Displaced to me.
I don't give a fuck.
That wall of text smh
6974990 Yes, I understand there are 'good'(being a relative term for this trope) Displaced stories out there, but most are shit.
Like, left by your neighbor's dog on your lawn becuase he hates you shit.
6975027 I wasn't talking about your story, just in general.
6975017 rekt
