Discord made a deal with Celestia, a certain deal that will bend the fate of Equestria for years to come.
He sends a man from a distant world to the land of ponies, so he may wreak glorious chaos upon the populaces of the world from behind a puppet.
Only this time, he slightly miscalculated.
A painstaking rewrite of Diaries of a Madman. I know exactly what I'm getting into.
This is just something I can use to pass the time, I'm not even sure I'll get that far into it.
Eh, I asked whatmustido for permission to do this, and he said that it's fine.
Also, I plan on keeping this teen rated, but I can't be certain how this will turn out. I'll either try my best to censor most of what goes on, or I'll change the rating later on. Thou hast been forewarned.
I'm gonna leave a like and a favorite because I'm feeling a bit optimistic about this first chapter. Just hope you're not just gonna copy the entire story and paste your character in Nav's spot.
To the next chapter!
Quite a bit more cheery-hearted than Nav it would seem. Plodding along now.
One of the more delicious ways to die.
So we've got the Dewey conversation, the Mayor's meeting, and Rarity. No diversions yet.
I sure hope so. So far, the events have been rather similarly arranged to what the original had. Sure, the responses are different but the outcomes aren't. Then again, the character is different from Nav, so it might diverge at a critical plot point, like the rape scene, and turn into something completely different now.

As a note for the diversions, since the whole story is one massive puppet show for Discord, I can't completely go off on a tangent like someone might expect. I think it would be more accurate to say that it would be more like a sine wave.
Every once in a while, the two stories will have the exact same occurrences, and the characters will be in the same geometric location, however, before and after those points will be mostly different.
I will change a lot about the story later on... And this is a big spoiler if you want but I will tell you two giant plot points that will differ to DoaM:
The first is that Fericious will meet a fire elemental that was imprisoned near Flo, who will be called something along the lines of Baize or something, and she will function largely different to Flo in the situations.
And secondly, instead of finding the Ancient Nordic Frost Sword like Navarone had, he will get the Legendary Spear of Zeus, that meaning the Sword, and the spear in the museum will trade places.
I will also possibly have him choose two different artefacts from the Everfree Dungeon, (if that is where he got the gender stones and magic canceller from... I can't remember...)
I will also say that, the two biggest differences between my version and whatmustido's version is the character and the interactions with the character, and the overall destination of the grand journey. I'm sure you can guess where he's headed, if not, I won't give that away just yet.

Haha! I like this! I still don't see why this has a 1:1 like/dislike ration... I know this was a rewrite/edit of another story, but it was an M, so I wasn't able to read it :(.
Looking forward to the next chapter! Although, I wonder what would happen if you put KNO3 into one of the cupcakes and ignited it...
I read the original but I'm curious how this one will turn out
