I am formally known as the Mad Hatter, but my friends call me Hatter. I don't think I can call myself human anymore after what those shadow hands did to me, but I just roll with it. I'd rather have fun and be carefree than let a little dimensional traveling affect me.
Let us just see how these ponies like my madness...and hats, I hope they like my hat.
Crossover with Don't Starve, but you don't need to know much about the game.
My first published story, with inspiration from the stories of LoHAV
Chapters (6)
Don't know much about Don't Starve since i started it recently but so far the story is interesting.
FINALLY! a Mad Hatter fic
I'm in
ALL THE YES!!!!
Keep going...
Nice fic, needs better grammar. Keep going, and I suggest at least going over each new chapter once or twice before posting it, that way you can fix most of the grammar mistakes before it's posted.
Also, I send you a favorite and a like.
Welp, all's well that's Maxwell.
xenophobe tia, if it isn't a pony it's deranged, crazed and a threat that must be stopped
make her life he... tartarus
giggle fun madness~! lots of fun!!!

She could even be the reason why everypony is so cold towards anything that is not a pony.
Sorry to say, last sentence needs a tune up.
I don't find anything so "mad" about him right now.
4251501 ir would add up
good filler and back story chapter
Looks great so far! It's nice to find a Don't Starve story that involves Maxwell in a sense. Please continue!
Glad to see someone else who hates writing in ye old English.
If I were you I'd avoid the ye olde English entirely because you're doing it wrong.
Most of renaissance English sounded more or less like how we talk today. The major difference is the existence of an entirely different word for you that takes its own conjugation for our important verbs. So how we say I am, you are, he is -- that's conjugation. Thou is always a singular you -- when there's more than one of you, you or ye can work -- and it is never used to people who are more important than you are, unless they are family (so no one but Luna would use "thou" to Celestia... well, and Discord if he's being a dick. :-) (God is traditionally "thou" despite being more important than His worshippers because the idea is that He is your father; this has confused many people into thinking that thou is for people who are more important than you or not recognizing that there's a difference between thou and you at all.) The conjugations are: to be, thou art; past tense, thou wert. To have, thou hast; past tense is had, same as everything else. Where verbs end in s for singular pronouns (he knows), it's est, so thou knowest. Also, unlike you which is always you, thou changes form like I, he and she: where you'd use me, him or her, you'd use thee. Your is thy, yours is thine. Doth, and all other verbs that end in a th, are variants of does, or verbs that end in an s (so archaic he knows would be he knoweth). If you've studied Spanish or French, thou is very similar to tu in terms of when you'd use it.
(BTW, the "ye" in "ye olde English" is not you, it's the. When ye means you, it's usually in a declarative context like "Ye sons of diseased dogs, remove your hands from me!" or "Hear ye, hear ye!" When ye means the, it's generally in the construction the adjective noun, like ye little sweet shoppe.)

But then again, there's a reason why this gobbly-gook is the stereotype. People expect this kind of "language" when talking is done in "ye olde times". It fits because it sounds stupid. And any teenager can tell you that old people sound stupid.

That is quite informative for the time period, but I really just googled a shakespearean translator to write the chapter, though I probably won't have much more old english in the upcoming chapters.
I would sugges you find yourself an editor or proofreader, there are quite a few mistakes that could easily be solved with another pair of eyes.
very interesting be careful mr. hatter otherwise the mad hatter will take over.
after all nothing can stop the power of MADNESS!!!!!
You're
More please!
Great chapter! Hope the next one comes soon.
Looking good! Don't worry about the wait--as long as you don't stop. This is a really neat concept!
In the description:
Should be 'than'
Just a little nitpick. descriptions are import.
HA
I see that reference you mad there
AVGN, nice.
yes we all ways need hats
This was fantastic
MAD HATTER!? IN A FIC!? NEEDS MORE RAVENS AND WRITING DESKS!!!
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!
The hatter and his "constructs", ponies who are given a second chance at life.... this reminds me of a certain band of "little people" clad in blue cloaks.... and of a certain man, who answers to the name: "Desmond Tiny"
5770238 Had to google that, but I was going for a more Chaotic Neutral for the Hatter, he was created after reading Mr. Wondertainment stories from the SCP stuff
5773759 Well, when I read constructs, I thought Darren Shan and Desmond Tiny
I am seriously enjoying this story. It is beautifully written, and I hope you continue it.
PRICELESS XD
You managed to explain how Hatter puts on an act without it seeming forced or out of character. Very impressive.
Damn, I really want more!
Is it too late to ask for another chapter?
Is there any chance of this story being revived?
