The Sniper is a man of patience, skill, and professionalism. But when he is thrust into a world against his will, one filled with ponies of all things, maintaining those traits won't be all that easy.

A story about friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness... and possibly adventure later on.

Criticism is appreciated and encouraged.

"Perhaps they can bury you in that van you call home."

Spy: How fitting for a bushman to land in a bush! Ha hahahahaha, ha- *snort snort*

Ah dammit, such a missed opportunity. Oh well.

Good Thing Sniper is one of the only two sane Mercs. The other being Heavy.

I'll bet that Sniper's a pegasus like his Waking Nightmares incarnation.

'Like nothing you've ever seen' implies still human

Shadow: It does deserve the comedy tag. Oh, and...

Sniper: "Bloody show ponies!"

Shadow: I couldn't resist.:rainbowlaugh::derpytongue2::rainbowwild:

Mhm, still human.

"You prancin' showponies!" was going to be the original title of this chapter until I realized that I would have a MUCH better place to use it in the future; when Sniper meets an actual 'show' pony. Catch my drift? :trixieshiftright: If I do that, I should be able to make every single chapter in this story a Sniper quote.

"I'm a dinkum Aussie, not some bloody cartoon!"

A comedy tag would be recommended, but I wanna see more "Rooty Tooty Point n' Shooty" on the Snoipah's part.

I thought snipers didn't have feelings. They have standards. Be polite, be efficient, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

8247789
That's what he thought too.

Don't worry, everything comes full circle in due time.

I can't believe Sniper told Pinkie to get on with it.

Heavy: I'm crying! Weeeee! WAAAAAAA!!!

8245519
How about making the final chapter, "Kill ya again soon, mate."?

8246588
Snipers not from australia he's from the lost country of new zealand that's why he doesn't have a mustache or chest hair in the shape of australia.

"Good God... I've died and gone to hell."

:rainbowlaugh:

Wasn't certain I'd care for another TF2 crossover, but that one line just made the magical all~come flowing back again.

Followed and up-rated.

To be fair, the prospect of being permanently dead must be rather shocking to somebody used to a respawn mechanic.

Still, must admit I'm glad for that little 'Sorry' at the end. :pinkiesad2:

(sniper explains the side sleeper and the pills that allow for jarrote)
Zecora- what strange creature do I see thats greatest weapon is his pee?
Rarity- how uncouth. fetish secretly intensifies

I'm a professional. Standards, not feelings. That outburst from before was just one of those standards; be polite.

Ayyyyyy!

Be polite, be EFFECIENT, and have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

Not be professional

I feel like this shouldn't work...
And yet it somehow does, congrats, my friend, you have done it!

*face palm* why did sniper trust someone from the other team?!?!

I appreciate the fact that the sniper has a logical reason for apologizing other than "she's so cute." Good job.

8274807
Thanks, man, I appreciate it. It was a real challenge to get this to work. I think it helps that I'm meticulous when I write. I spent over 5 hours writing the 5th chapter. EVERYTHING MUST BE PERFECT

8275512
Yeah, I considered that fact when writing the chapter. I don't think "cute" is really even a concept to the Sniper.

8274819
happened to me once, thought he was a hoovy but no just a dead ringer spy who pretended to die and then backstab when someone laughs at the dead hoovy.

He actually makes a very good point. "Why would Sniper trust a BLU, and for that matter, a BLU Spy? That just seems foolish."

I'm going to write a blog post on that, actually. I'll admit it here, that's a really good point and an oversight on my part. I'll explain more in the post.

Dear Celestia,

I've made up my mind. Tomorrow, I will begin introducing Sniper to my friends. This way, I can judge his character and introduce him to society.

Celestia

I didn't know Tia wrote letters to herself.:trollestia:

WHOOPS! Lemme just go fix that real quick...

I expected this to be a meme story... but my expectations were messed with once again.
9/9 moustaches :moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache::moustache:

Atleast we can rule out pyro from the list of suspects who might have fallen... that would not end well

You might want to click the last words of this chapter, it's a link. (stupid fimfic making links black)

I can't wait to see where you go with this next, especially with this twist.

but the Princesses got their hands on him. 

PLEASE I HAVE TO KNOW HOW THIS ENDS!

So, the respawn generators for both teams are offline?

8302069
Yes, that is correct. The canon I'm going for here is that the respawners are shut off manually once the fighting stops and cannot be turned on until morning. Logically speaking, it's a way to conserve power by turning it off when it's not needed and keeping it off once it's been deemed unnecessary.

The mercs manage when the respawners are turned off, but once they're off, they stay off until the next morning.

have date of the next chapter?

8313035
Generally, I don't have release dates for chapters. They get written and are uploaded upon completion, but after I once let more than a week go by between chapters, I've vowed to upload one chapter at minimum every week. Chapter progression will probably slow at the start of August, however, due to complications from summer work for school, so I suppose I should try to get chapters out while I've still got a good opportunity to do so.

Next chapter? Today or Tomorrow. Depends on how long I make it.

No, but I can see what you mean. I'll try and change the wording a bit.

EDIT: Okay, hopefully, I fixed it.

Good chapter. but I feel like Sniper fliped from 'I don't want to leave' to 'just take me' a bit too quick. it seemed... sudden.
