Vladimir Korzhakov is a normal twenty-one year old guy living a less than exciting life. After moving from his home country of Russia at a young age, he has had a harsh childhood and an equally frustrating life as a young adult. Nowadays, he works a soul sucking job, has no-one to call friend, and his immediate family has long passed. He passes the time by watching cheap, lazy entertainment in his run-down apartment. Then one day something happens that will change his life forever. Whisked into a new world and a new body without any say otherwise, he is lost and confused. Can he adapt to his surroundings and forge a new path? Or will he be stuck dwelling on everything he has lost?
Chapters (23)
Why did you tern him in to a poney !?
i dont know why but HIES and especially when they turn into pony's are the best story's two me with the exceptions that are just horrible
i will watch this
4037809 I'll go ahead and change that. Thanks for the heads up
4037978 I feel that it gives that character a bit more of a inner struggle which I am trying to shoot for. I also find it hilarious when a character is changed physically one way or another. It adds for a bit of drama in the first few chapters at least.
Funny... I used the exact same location a few years ago. I'll fave keep this on my radar, but no like or dislike yet.
...This seems semi-apropriate
whats his cutie mark?
4042496 None as of now but I have a hilarious idea for what it'll be and how he'll earn it.
Move to Lakewood it's much nicer and there's a lower chance of being on the weird side of Colfax.
4044045 I actually live in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
while the story is interesting, each chapter is horribly short and lacking detail. like catching 5 minute glimpses of a movie
Я пишу эту историю во славу матушки России!
The reveal seemed kinda rushed, but I guess it's what comes next that matters, right?
4044975 Yea. I have a lot more ideas in mind for the story to come. I just wanted to get the whole 'your old life is over now' stuff out of the way. Sorry if it seemed rushed.
Im Gonna be calling bullshit on the 'Most suitable form' type deal.He's a natural omnivore,And a species bred for dexterity,It'd make more sense to throw him in as a Gryphon or a Minotaur because atleast then he'd still be able to retain his natural purpose in life,Though chances are he wouldnt be as great at it.Turning him into a pony just spits in the face of logic
4045079 I have to agree with Ninjahzzz though; the reasoning needs work. Maybe say it's a law of the multiverse that certain things must and must not exist, and since humans are not a part of their universe, he became the nearest compatible race.
His acceptance of reality is even more rushed than the reveal of it, which is a shame because coming to grips and seeing how he interacts with others while in that transition would have been very interesting. I really think you should expand the previous chapter and then rewrite this one so he takes time adjusting and accepting things. Rushing it like this doesn't just make the story hard to believe, it makes it boring.
4046593 I plan to have the whole 'omnivore' thing cause him issues later. As for him so quickly adapting so quickly, I do apologize for rushing it but I have a lot more ideas planned for what happens after he accepts his fate. I may go back later and try to add more detail to the first five chapters.
4046816 He hasn't accepted it yet but he's willing to try to accept it. I know there isn't much of a difference but I plan to have him relapse later.
4047091 Ahhh, that works. Carry on.
4046725 Again,Most suitable aint the equine
4047285 I said "nearest compatible," not "most suitable".
4047569 Nearest compatable would likely be minotaur
4047761 I'm talking in terms of physical position, not similarity in shape. Ponies were the nearest sentients, so he became a pony.
4049325 Actually,Nearest sentient arguably is zecora
4050398 You're thinking about it too much.
4053201 Its what i do,Deal with it.
The black somewhat rescues the awful dark red on blue coloring. Still, red and black is an infamous combination that reminds people of many many (gasp) many terrible OCs. I could see a yellow instead of a red, or maybe an orange...
So... he's not being himself? What does he have to do, walk on two legs?
4066159 oh don't worry. Yellow will come into play very soon. *michevous smirk*. Besides, yellow and red *cough* go great together.
Советский Союз является лучшим Союз!
4066178 although the statement is vague it will come into play later. You'll just have to wait till then!
Here's hoping he still has stereotypical Russian alcohol tolerance...It'd be funny to see a Ruskie pony drink most of his body weight and not even seem fazed
4077250 Whip out the vodka!
4077262 You get the vodka,Ill get the cornflakes and beer!
4077269 Пей до дна! (Bottoms up!)
Derpy has two names and does anything for muffins, and Lyra has an obsession with humans. Let me guess, is Bon Bon a changeling?
4086463 Lol I don't know. I'm just giving Vlad more things to be snarky about.
4086695 Uh, OK, I guess. Just don't make Doctor Whooves a timelord. I don't know how much more of that cliche I can take.
4086959 Lol, I wasn't planning on it. I find that the whole 'Doctor' thing to be a bit ridiculous anyway.
Dude,Stop pulling punches! it makes the story fall more into the cliche and overused tropes bin
4087307 I didn't think I was being that cliche... Unfortunately, as of now, original ideas are harder to come by. I think the whole 'communism' thing was pretty original on my part. If it isn't... well... I'm trying...
4087346 No,Thats kinda original,But the whole 'Oh,Im gonna cover up a good chunk of who i was for the vast majority of my life,And then get royally fucked over when they inevitably find out' Shtick is done to death,Its called the Liar Revealed.The less traveled path would be to have him just come out about it all,Screw the concequences,And just deal with it now,because it'l only be worse if he delays it
4087359 Oh that. Don't worry. I have something in mind that will come up in the next chapter or two...
4087370 ....Im gonna regret it,But i trust you
4087373 You didn't trust me...? I'm hurt... How could anyone not trust a communist? It's unheard of!
4087384 To be fair,I really could care less about communists....I dont live in america
4087400 Good because I'm currently wearing a shirt with the hammer-and-sickle, a KGB ushanka, and have a USSR flag as a cape.
4087559 ...More power to ya....Im just a random Newfie,So i really dont have a reason to care
Ah the hammer and sickle. It symbolizes the invisible tattoo artists floating around ponyland panicking over a pony without a cutie mark and slapping the first thing that came to mind on his flank.
"Aha he's a repair pony! Give him a hammer and sickle!"
"A sickle? Why not just a-"
"No time he's almost done fixing it gogogo"
