I write stuff. Some day I hope to write stuff for a living. In the meantime, enjoy my dumb little universe where 90% of stuff is supposed to be funny.
Pancake Oregano Crackpot III is a strange pony. He is a pegasus who only has one right wing, a glass left eye, and a small room at a home for "special" ponies. What exactly happened? How did Crackpot lose his wing, his eye and his mind? (Heck if I know.)
This fic is based on the "Ask Crackpot" Tumblr by RomanRazor.

You know, I'd never heard of this Tumblr before RingmasterJ5 sent me this story. Going in blind... I have to say, this is a pretty interesting read. I only really noticed one issue with the grammar that took me out of the story, and it was towards the start. This sentence:
"For the world" is being repeated. Again, only big issue I picked up on. The character of Crackpot was endearing in his own little way, and I did enjoy his little moment with Screwball. I definitely don't regret the read, and hell, I think I might want to check out the Tumblr now.

Thanks for the feedback, Fallen. I'll fix that error, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.
There's a link to the tumblr in the description, by the way.
Kinda lame to riff on the Cloudkicker!verse fic naming theme.
Neat storey :-) I like it!
Congrats for getting on Equestria Daily!
Never knew the tumblr existed before this story. Now I'm interested. Screwball seems like an endearing character and the tumblr looks quite interesting. Well-written.
More please!
Nice little fic, I would love to see this expanded to a full length story. The transitions were short an a bit sudden, bouncing around to the different interactions, but thats understandable considering the length and in some ways works as a sort of scatterbrained narritive driven by crackpot.
That right there is a wonderful little exchange, and says alot about the characters personalities without beating the reader over the head with exposition.
Please tell me there is more of this in the works.

Thank you very much. I put a lot of work into this.
Originally, this was meant to be just a one-shot, but after seeing some of your feedback, I might consider further exploration into the relationship between Crackpot and Screwball.
Stay tuned.
Steel Repose is best B.P.B.B.B.P.O.M.F.

In case of toxic thought, immediately remove mind from gutter and apply a cup of bleach.
Do it quickly, otherwise the thought will stain.
2236792 you also know what it means so we are on the same level...

Yes, I know what it means, but I'm not that kind of writer.
At least, not that EXACT kind.
2234696 I have seen this naming convention used in other books, short stories, and fanfics. We are not the only fandom out there.
It was quite an enjoyable read. No grammar or spelling issues that I could see on my read through and you have a good flare for banter. The characters (even the bit/secondary ones) felt more then one dimensional and you have a good talent for giving depth to them with a few quick lines and no cumbersome exposition.
The only thing I might suggest you work on is describing the setting a bit more. Through out the read the only room I could really picture is the Doc's and although the lack of setting elsewhere didn't detract from the story, it would help to provide some grounding and get a feel for the situation the characters are in (which, in turn, can help them develop even more).
Aside from that this fic definitely earned it's spot on EQD and I would love to see you write more with this story. Till then, I shall have to be satisfied with the Tumblr, which I shall check out right now.
I really enjoyed reading this story. I was wondering if there if there were any fics with Crackpot in them, glad to know there's at least one.
Understandably this fic has "veered" away from the direction the tumblr has taken, but it was an enjoyable read nonetheless. At this point there haven't been any points that broke me out of the read grammar wise, and I'm curious if you're going to try to make your way back to following the blog or taking this a whole other direction.
Straightforward if just a wee bit jumpy, the narration gives a steady ratio of exposition to description. Thanks for introducing me to the blog!
