leaving him with only the power of being an douche at inappropriate times.

that's the best kind of power, though.

I think, and this is just a spit ball here. That the human ends up falling for rainbow dash, just a hunch though.

4385119 Not sure if read old story...or actually making a prediction.

So...am I just supposed to forget everything that's happened so far?

Good Chapter!
Are you going to discontinue the previous story completely for this one?

4385132 I have npt read a word. Not even of this one yet. YET.

4385148 Don't let the

A young man enters Equestria after the death of his parents, and finds himself as a pony, blessed with the ability to use neither the wings, or horn he was given when he arrived.

Interesting start for an alternate OtR, are you going to continue the main story?

4385142
God, I hope not. The original OtR is pretty damn good.

i am so confused right now:pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::derpytongue2::derpytongue2: please tell me you will do more of the original otr please?:fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry:

will Alex be a ass in this one or no (i hope not:fluttercry::fluttercry:)

Wait...why are we doing this again? Don't you like the story you have now?

4385338
4385249

Don't worry, I'mma continue the main story. But they may end differently from one another.

4385148

Don't worry if you're not interested in the premise, I won't be insulted. I mean, I plan on redoing a large portion of a HiE i started 2 years ago. This is simply me reworking the poor story choices i made.

Lots of people are not into this sort of stuff, i get it.

4385594
So basically, we disregard cannon (other than that one ship that has a big part in it) from the original OtR?

4385904

No, it'll be essentially the same. With a few minor changes here and there, and a lot of content skipped. It'll look VERY similar. The slight changes just might change the outcome, because I'm a little stuck on how i want it to end, to be honest.

4385947
Can you even find a good ending for a story this good?! :pinkiehappy:

I think I'll give this a go while I have the chance. :derpytongue2:

I haven't been able to catch up on the original due to school. I think I'm fifty chapters behind or so.

Aright, now that I've read it, I can say that it does seem to be a decent start. A bit strange, just tossing this new Alex into the story, but that doesn't really have too much of an effect on what's going on.

Pinkie giggled, realizing that Nightmare was referring to the white Pony’s butt.

I actually thought that NMM was throwing a jab at you, sir. I don't know why I thought that's what she was doing. :rainbowwild:

Anyway, I would enjoy seeing where you'll be taking this, considering your experiences with the original.

4386229

That is what she was doing. It was i joke i made at myself, while elaborating on it with Pinkie.

But other small, and big things will change. You'll see!

4386267 Aha, so I was correct! I guess school hasn't completely depleted my ability to recognize jokes!

I shall wait patiently for your revisions. :twilightsmile:

so the other one will continue or you will restart everything here:rainbowderp:

4386338

I'll be doing both at the same time. I can take two, or maybe even three! I can fit whatever they cram in there!

4386736 My eyebrows cannot possibly wiggle hard enough.

4386819

I'm very sorry to say, no one can.

4386736 just don't overwork yourself and rush the stories XD

That was an...interesting start, if not a teensy bit rushed with the nightmare moon bit :applejackunsure: Still good though, I'm so excited to see how this plays out! :pinkiehappy:

4387099

I'm still wading the waters to see what needs to be shortened, and what needs to be kept at length. I'm simply trying to cut out as much as possible.

If something really does seem wrong, feel free to let me know!

And now I await the arrival of Dax. :pinkiehappy:

“This is your dream, huh?” The mare asked, taking a few steps toward him, puffing out her chest slightly, “And while I’d love to climb in that bed, and just go crazy with you… there’s one problem.”

Alex knew. This was his dream, after all.

“You’re a lesbi—”

This isn’t a dream!” The mare bellowed, slapping him hard across the face, before turning, and storming out of the room.

As far as first impressions go, it could've been worse.

Then I could hang out with the actor who played the best of the Batmen... George Clooney.

Damn it Alex, I thought you had better taste in modern Batman films. Michael Keaton was the better Batman.

But I really hoping this is still a dream.

But I'm really hoping this is still a dream.

A Pega-corn? A Uni-sus?

I can't believe you got me twice with this, King. Twice! :rainbowlaugh:

Ok, so I know I gave the original an extremely bad review, but i'll be perfectly honest about this one.

I kinda like it. So far that is. Grabbed my attention, held it hostage, and made me want to know more. Even managed to get a few laughs out of me at the end there. So unlike the previous version, I will be reading some more of this than just the first chapter. Hope it only gets better from here!

He must have some weird dreams...

I give this a day before it beats my story.
Only 480 views so....
I'm doomed.

Huh...that was confusing. I saw the title in Popular Stories and went "Wait, did some asshole just rip-off OTR?"
Then I realized it's still you and calmed right down. But...does that mean the original won't be continued? I mean, I didn't really have a problem with it to begin with, even with all the side-but-not-quite-side stories. To have to start all over again like that, knowing it'll take a while (likely a LONG while even with sped-up revisions) to get back to where it was...I'll be honest, that'd suck.
I mean, I'll read this eventually, don't get me wrong here. But, when eagerly and patiently awaiting the next chapter suddenly becomes "Well, now I have to wait until this story manages to catch up" when said original story, I shit you not, is nearing HALF A MILLION WORDS (combining the side-stories,426648 to be exact...yeah, I felt like putting that into a calculator to confirm it) and still not done yet (...by the way, kudos for nearing that threshold) would kinda put me off from reading this until it nears the original's timeline.
I feel bad saying this, I really do, but if this is meant to indefinitely halt the original and replace it, I won't be reading it yet cause I don't feel the need to re-read a story as giant as this when it never finished yet. Maybe this sounds a bit selfish (and it probably is), but it's going to bug me if I don't say it since the fate of the original is unknown right now.

Edit: Never mind, I'm a fucking idiot that didn't read the blog posts first. Ignore my silly rambling. ^_^

Question. Is the main character an Alicorn?

“Excuse me?” She asked, her voice cracking in surprise at his forwardness.

“Oh, no, that voice won’t do at all either.” Alex shook his head, thinking of the perfect voice for her to have since this was all a dream, “You sound too man-ish. And if you HAVE to be a horse, I guess you could slim down the rump a tiny bit. Maybe get yourself a bigger chest as well— Hey! Your face turns red too! I like that!”

Indeed it had. The face on the mare had gone from relaxed, and quite happy. To what Alex assumed was more of an angry-aroused tone. Again, not his favorite, but he could live with it!

“This is your dream, huh?” The mare asked, taking a few steps toward him, puffing out her chest slightly, “And while I’d love to climb in that bed, and just go crazy with you… there’s one problem.”

Alex knew. This was his dream, after all.

“You’re a lesbi—”

”This isn’t a dream!” The mare bellowed, slapping him hard across the face, before turning, and storming out of the room.

OH SHIT! was my first thought when he said that to rainbow... I'm surprised she didn't knock his teeth out for that. :rainbowlaugh: (I for one think rainbows voice is cute...but I guess Alex and I are going to have to agree to disagree on that one :eeyup:)

And btw, don't be afraid of doing big chapters, I for one love 5K+ word chapters, satisfies my cravings for a new chapter for longer

Rewrite? More like re-imagining! Holy crap, I honestly didn't expect that! Sheesh, to think I had doubts about this.
Blitzing the intro and adding more timey-wimey Doctor shenanigans, I'm all for that!

Out of curiosity, will the two Alexes meet each other to take on a big bad?

4394400 Probs not, since this is a re-imagining.

4397092
True, but think back to chapter 1 when Time Turner, Rainbow Dash and presumably Derpy showed up to pick him up. TT said "This is not our Alex."

I'll be assuming that in a future side arc of the original Off the Record, Alex 1 will be sent back to Earth. In this side arc, maybe Alex 1, Dash 1, TT and Derpy will recruit Alex 2 and Dash 2 to fight the eldritch abomination.

It could happen... :unsuresweetie:

While I'm not going to rule that out as a possibility, I had some other plans for the big ending in the original story. Something that might not even be possible under most circumstances.

So, I'm going to do try for this ending first. But, should things not work out with that ending, (Which is likely,) I'll start looking at some ideas, such as that one.

4397193 I like this one better than the original, so please keep up the good work.

SO this is a complete re-do of the original story? A new and improved version lets say? I have not read the original but having read the other comments and having enjoyed the chapter my self, this definitely looks like a good place to start.
Just to be sure though: I don't have to be familiar with the original to enjoy this properly right?

Im really fucking confused

EVERYTHING I KNOW AND LOVE IN THE WORLD IS CRASHING DOWN AROUND ME!

I can appreciate pressing the reset button on this. But still, it's gonna take a while to get back to where you were, if you still want to go in that general direction, especially with the whole Discord thing (which was a great arc, IMO).
