Time Turner is your average earth pony from Trottingham. He's lived in Ponyville for a while now, and for the most part keeps to himself fixing clocks and other time devices for the residents. But, one day, a jump to conclusions leads a certain hyperactive pink earth pony to think Time Turner is some sort of time traveling alien. Soon, everypony wants to hear of his crazy exploits through time and space. The once quiet time artisan is finding himself spinning fictional tales to the little fillies of the town. This gives him a newfound confidence to ask out a certain mail mare he never had the courage to talk to before. Will he succeed? This is more a side story in my TwiMacVerse, that could take place during the events of either stories.

Only one chapter and already it is funny:rainbowlaugh:

So he moved to Ponyville, thinking a town with that sort of name couldn’t possibly be anything too outrageous. He was very wrong…

Of course he was!!! Where would be the fun in being right??

Dammit Pinkie!!!! He is not a time travelling alien!!! I think??

1880698 You think correctly. This is a Time Turner who's just an everyday pony. Not sure how often that's done in fan fic, but I like the idea of him being a normal pony mistaken for a time traveling alien.

1881477 It's a shame they called him that. They should've gone with Dr Whooves instead, but still had him as a normal pony!!!

After the first paragraph or two I couldn't help but think of Sylar from the show Heroes. As long as Time Turner doesn't start going around killing ponies. :pinkiecrazy:

Will be following to see how this develops. :twilightsmile:

First of all, I want to know why Pinkie jumps to that kind of conclusion when she sees the box. Secondly, there has to be some reference to a Fob watch. Either as a gag or an ending sendoff to keep us guessing.

1883349 Why? Because she's Pinkie Pie. That's why. :pinkiehappy: As for a fob watch, I can't really see a pony using a fob watch. Also, there's no guessing, this is a normal Time Turner. The whole time traveling alien is a made up scenario by Pinkie Pie in this story.

1883407 The Fob watch looks like a normal Pocket watch, so it would be quite understandable for a pony like Time Turner to have one. I also meant you could end the story with the watch so that somebody might think "maybe Pinkie was right" despite everything pointing to her being wrong.

i always like the fanfics where time turner is just a regular pony mostly because i was never a doctor who

1884886 I enjoy Doctor Who a lot, I just wanted a take where he was a normal pony.

Pinkie Pie is more a supporting character, and if I could have her at the end of character tags I would. Given her growing involvement, I figured she should get some credit. And I promise Derpy will be appearing in this story soon.

Lol, "Gallopfrey"!!!!!! So, Pinkie is going to be Rose?? Or will Derpy take that roll?? At least Pinkie can help with the stories!!

Also, if you need any info on the Dr's adventures, I've seen pretty much all of the newer ones.

1885238 I'll have Pinkie help with some stories. Buuuuuut, eventually I'll get to the rom com elements with Derpy and Time Turner.

oh time turner if only you knew the truth, this whole being a normal pony thing is in itself a facade! awsome story

i kinda wish that he didnt go through with the act i guess i just want him turner to just keep getting annoyed by the rumors

1886732 While that coulda been a neat idea, i think my direction will make things a bit more interesting. Plus It'll lead to some fun stories of Time Turner telling stories to the school fillies and colts. :twilightsmile:

1887250 i also noticed there a sex tag to this story i know it rated teen to but is dinky hooves going to be child of time turner and derpy hooves in your story

1887994 Well, at the moment I'm sticking with Derpy being a single mom when she meets Time Turner. And I really just clicked on sex because I figured I had to choose one to why it's rated teen. Despite having published 4 fan fics on here, I'm still figuring out how it all works. :derpytongue2:

1887994 And I changed it to just teen. I figured at certain points the stories Time Turner tells might get a bit intense, so teen made the most sense.

1888138 oh i was kinda a little hoping for a time turner/ditzy doo more mature scene,i noticed that there are barely any doctor/derpy mature fics on this site weird since it is one of most popular pairing on the show

1888174 Well, that could still change. Nothing of this is written in stone. But I think I'll still stick with Dinky being Derpy's out of wedlock child for the time being.

I already covered the hourglass one, but here are a couple more edits.
Chapter one:

But one day, a simple misunderstanding would turn Tim Turner’s world upside down.

Oops.

“Nopony said nothin' about takin a crate into a buildin',” said one of the two workers. “Just been told to drop it off in front of this here buildin'.”

Dang, Pinkie jumps off to the wrong conclusion easily.

1892008 I don't see what's wrong with the second sentence you cited.

1892030
Sorry, I probably should've explained. Usually you put in an apostrophe when you are cutting off a word a little bit. Instead of nothin, you place an apostrophe at the end, making it nothin'. Its just one of the many strange laws of the English language.

1892041 Oh, I see. Yeah, I'm aware of that, but I don't tend to bother with those.

Chapter 3:

The next day, Tim Turner closed shop early so he could tell some stories to the local school ponies. The school colt from yesterday had kept his promise of bringing some friends along; he apparently brought his entire class. Pinkie Pie, of course, was there too.

Why does Tim Turner keep appearing? Who is this Tim Turner you speak of? What sorcery is this?

1892071 I tend to write these late at night, and I'm recovering from a cold. lol

1892077
I tend to knock out a chapter in an hour, when I finally feel like writing. That, or I work on it one sentence after another on different times. I could only imagine the cold recovery.

i still think even with pinkies help these details are comming to him all too fluently.

1892120 Hate to break it to you, but I have no intention of him being an actual alien.

1893904 Derpy will be appearing soon. I'll have her given name be Ditzy Do, but I'm gonna also be using the nickname Derpy Hooves.

1892412

That is AMAZING.

1893928

I found myself hoping there will be some confusion and subsequent angst involving Derpy thinking Time Turner and Pinkie might hav esomething going on between them~ That would make for some good conflict.

i cant say i like pinkie pie in this story nothing wrong with her i just think the story would be better without her

1896485 Well as the story progresses, she'll have less and less a role in the central plot. But, for the whole misunderstanding of Time Turner being an alien, it made sense that Pinkie would be the one who jumps to this conclusion.

1896485
yes but who else but pinkie pie jump to the conclousion?

1896506 i know she the one who started it all but after that i think to me it feels she out of place like this isnt her story but how many chapters do you plan on having in this story

Dinky, you alltheragefaces.com/img/faces/large/surprised-clever-girl-l.png

Again, Pinkie jumps to a conclusion. But is she right??

Here I am supposed to be sevicing a plane, and yet I am reading ponies on my phone!!
What's wrong with me?

*grins* Very cute! Definitely a fan of Ditzy being intelligent with odd eyes. I've really come to love the fanon idea that Dinky is brilliant. As well I'm a sucker for Time turner being normal and getting shoved into the Dr Whooves role.

Well this certainly seems interesting :pinkiehappy: . Though I have never read anything involving Time Turner as a major character or even seen Doctor Who I find this intriguing. NOW! Time to read more :twilightsmile:

I LIKE IT EVEN MORE :pinkiehappy: .... NEXTCHAPTERGOTTAGOBYE! :twilightsheepish:

This is absolutely great:pinkiehappy:! I love it and can't wait for more. GOOD LUCK! :twilightsmile:
