A cosplayer is sent to the Equestria of a hundred years ago - a Victorian era of high adventure on the wild fringes of the world. Too bad he's a PDF trooper from Warhammer 40k.
A contest entry for the Rage Review's group, the F*** THIS PROMPT Round 4.
The prompt: "A Cosplayer ends up in Equestria with his/her stuff."
I'd never write a pseudo-Displaced fic otherwise. Must be complete by July 13th. Emperor save me.

Well, this is interesting. Keep it up.
Why there's more than one chapter? Shouldn't he be dead already?
I had way too big of a smile on my face when he uttered the holy words. +Praise the emperor!!!+
Ok. This is fucking amazing. I have been waiting for a story like this for forever. I do have a bit of a concern though. A lasguns is a laser weapon. According to the lore, when a fully powered las-shot hits the unarmored human form, the blood in their body flash boils, killing them immediately and messily. I'd imagine it would do more than scorch a tree.
Due to the relative size of a pony compared to the average human male (3ft tall, or waist height, if I'm remembering the '6ft candy cane comparison correctly) I'd imagine it would do even more to them.
Other than that, fuck the hell yes. Continue keep The Emperor's Will in heart and mind.
hmmm so far i like it lets see where your'l take this
6189958 ??? +THE EMPEROR PROTECTS+ continue please static.fjcdn.com/comments/The+emperor+protects+_c4d8cccab07679ac222e564e2ea8bb2a.jpg
Elegant
how will he survive with just a lasgun? will he get warp powers or will the emporer actually appear somehow
Wow, he's really getting into this. Must not have been the most stable person to begin with.
6194978 kek. A lasgun is more than enough to protect a man on what equates to a docile feral world.
MOAR! the Ruinous Powers demand it!
And have a like!
Wow that's some hefty mind whammy hes going though but i wonder if its because he wasn't the most stable person before all this and now he starts cracking and holds onto what he has right there, namely the uniform, the weapon and the primer.
Or if something from the outside is influencing him and pushing him into this way of thinking.
That's what you get for handling the merch without permission!
(missed i capitalization)
How long before he starts shooting ponies?
6198880 Probably once he sees something particularly heretical. Who knows what kind of foul rituals and aberrations were commonplace in Equestria's early days...
Im fairly certain by this point that he is under some sort of mind whammy.
I cant think of another reason why he would contemplate missing his family and friends and then directly after that starts praising the emeror as if it is the most normal thing for him.
Also comtemplating suicide by grenade to take out an airship full of xenos in the emperors name is not something a regular person does.
I liked it. My favorite part?
The part where there was no stupid fuckery that every single other one of those 'displaced' stories are riddled with.
No stoning, no '1000 yrs later', and no 'crossover summoning' idiocy.
Praise the Emperor.
Praise be to the emperor.
Sequel ?
anyway great story

I believe that once they become the character, then that character begins to lose his old self, and is replaced by the character they were cosplaying as. It's like a system reboot, but with a different memory card, or something like that. It will slowly override his original life.
Wait, I'm confused. Does the Emperor protect?
In any case, superb redemption of the concept, and nice use of a blend of morphic resonance and escaping the impossible by retreating into one's own head. Very well done indeed. Thank you for this.
What's a PDF trooper?
WAIT is this a two minds one body kinda thing or a merge or the to?
6438641 A PDF trooper is part of the Planetary Defense Force (PDF) of the Planet they are on. They act as the local 'Army' and are usually the first line of defense against any Xeno or Heretic Invasion until the Adeptus Astartes, Adeptus Sororitas, or Imperial Guard/Navy arrive to help out.

C'mon man lay off the PDF. I've served with many a PDF regiment and I can say from a professional standpoint that although they are absolutely shit AT LEAST THEY HAVE SOME ZEAL I CAN ADMIRE AS A COMMISSAR
I can't blame the guy for defaulting on going right into character. I mean if I cosplayed as a Redshi-er LOYAL PDF TROOPER and suddenly found myself in Equestria with Throne-blessed proper PDF gear and a book chock-full of propaganda the emotional and mental shock would be so great I'd probably default into my Primer for guidance.
6201037 praise the god emperor
Glad I read this. This was a really interesting psychological ride.
Boi. Gray Knights and Necrons. Also, see Fish of Fury.
Save that. Lasgun packs recharge from heat. Or electricity.
And your flaks. Flak armor is one beeg hueg SAPI plate.
