"Be good to yourself, because nobody else has the power to make you happy."

T

An unwilling non-brony traveller from Earth finds himself switching between bodies of the Ponyville locals randomly, leaving so much chaos and confusion in his wake that Discord might as well retire now.

Based on the T V series Quantum Leap, but hopefully without the early cancellation.

Chapters (6)

Looks good enough. Track

Irate human: Check
Giving Spoiled Milk/Rich a bloody muzzle: Check
Many Pone perspectives: To come later

Conclusion: Like and Follow

good start if I do say so myself :raritywink:

I'm liking this idea! And bonus points for starting with DT. ^^

Brexit capital of the world

Isn't Britain by definition the only place capable of having a Brexit?

I think I might enjoy this story more than I probably should. It just reminds me so much of quantum leap,

The whole scenario just makes me wonder how I would've handled the situation

7924755 Yep. We're pioneers. WOO-HOO! :twilightsmile: (Well, we gotta have SOMETHING to be proud of at the moment... I can't really think of much else...) :unsuresweetie:

7923568
7923598 Thanks, I hope I continue to surpass expectations... :twilightsmile:

7924189 Let's hope the middle and the end are just as good... :raritywink:

7923706 Don't forget... good grammar, check. Always very important. :duck:

7924755 Yup, I've had it festering away in my head for a while, and I think I've finally got enough material to turn it into a full fledged story. Enjoy!


7925672 I would just have a good time... and then, when I got bored, see Zecora about a trip home . I get the feeling she can solve pretty much anything... :scootangel:

And, just like that, I was female again. Wearing a very baggy hat, to boot.

:ajbemused::rainbowlaugh:

Whelp... it sure sucks to be Big Mac right now! :eeyup:
I wonder whose body our protagonist shall commandeer next. :applejackunsure:
Hopefully not Pinkie no being can handle that for an extended period of time. :pinkiegasp::pinkiehappy::pinkiecrazy:

Well okay, you've got my attention. :trixieshiftright:

Ohhhh oh ho ho hoo this is gonna be goooooood eaten.

7925969 you know what pony I would love to see this guy become?

here's a hint: you can tell by my profile picture and my profile information :raritywink:

This is so damn brilliant. XD!

Basically a smaller, runtier version of the country pony I was before.

Not exactly what I would call an upgrade.

Fiddlesticks.

7926031 Oh, I think I'll get to here eventually, and watch old Roadrunner cartoons for inspiration... :raritywink:


7926060 ...Is that a good, or a bad thing? :rainbowhuh:


7926168 Let's hope I can sate your appetite :yay:


7926777 Hmm... Let me guess, Starlight Glimmer? :twistnerd:


7927401 Well, thank you for saying so. I aim to please. :rainbowkiss:

YARRSSS MORE ANTICS GO GO GO.

This is great. Now worst pony gets a beating while protagonist can ponder in ABs room. That moment when protagonist becomes Celestia will be great

I have a feeling that the protagonist is eventually going to become well acclimated to his situation

There are only about six M&M colors.

7931943 ALWAYS GO NEVER LOOK BACK. :rainbowdetermined2:


7931986 That'll be like... becoming God. Uh Oh... :rainbowhuh:


7933320 Well, there's only one way to find out. Don't touch that dial... :rainbowwild:


7938927 Well considering how many colours of pony there are, quite an accurate description... :rainbowderp:

This shit is hilarious :trollestia:

They keep leaping from body to body to set things right, and hoping the next leap will be the next leap home

WoW, this is becoming WILD, good job man :pinkiehappy:

7931854 nope, but good try though. Starlight Glimmer is my 28th favorite character.

here's another hint: she has only appeared in the Equestria Girls movies and hasn't appeared in the main series yet

Well it was nice knowing you spike.

He is an alicorn now.

Oh... well this will be quite problematic... or terrifying depending on how he goes about this new SWITCH.

7940747 bingo! you got the answer right.... but it was meant for the Author, not a commenter :twilightsheepish:

7942445 Nah, I decided to give someone else a try. Well done... that person!! :yay:

Um... this isn't Displaced. So why did you put it in the Displaced group?

7942658 Cheerfully withdrawn. A honest mistake... honest. :twilightblush:

7942668 Ah, I understand. They happen to all of us.

7942597 yea... I can be pretty snarky sometimes :twilightsheepish:

but yea, aside from the person that got it, I would to see this main character become my #1 favorite character: Sunset Shimmer

btw, why couldn't you guess it was Sunset Shimmer the first time around? I mean, it was plainly obvious by both my profile picture and profile information, wasn't it?

In Chapter 1, I was considering doing a fan fic reading of this.
In Chapter 3, I was leaning towards doing one.
Now, at the end of Chapter 5, I definitely want to do it. If only I actually went through with the things i want to do…

Also, I don't think being Flurry Heart will give our narrator many problems to cause, except maybe going through 20% more diapers than usual. Just a guess.

7939334 Thanks!! :pinkiehappy: (As long as you mean sh*t in a good way :pinkiecrazy: )

7939411 Well done!! That's the plot in a nutshell. :coolphoto:

7939519 Yup, Wild is what we like. :derpytongue2:

7941302 Cheers. I'll quote you on the liner notes. :scootangel:


7942004 Indeed. RIP Spike, Funeral at 9am sharp. Bring flowers.

7942080 Yes... but for how long? :rainbowhuh:


7942320 Well, you'll have to wait 'n' see...:raritywink:


7942671 That must be the most quoted cartoon strip I've ever seen. Not surprising really... it sure sums up a lot of situations.


7942925 You call me 'snarky', and yet you missed the tone of my other posts. D'ya think I wouldn't be able to tell Sunset Shimmer at first glance? I'm not one of those fairweather fans, ya know. Perhaps I was being facetious from the beginning... :moustache:

7943422 Go for it, dude.
Just... make me look cool.:rainbowdetermined2:

7943478 it is funny how the character hasn't even tried to talk to somebody about the issue that they are going through, they were in the perfect position to do so when they met Twilight, even though they did pretty much destroy the entire castle

7943615 I think Twilight had bigger things on her mind just then... like what you suggested. I even said he wanted to talk to her in the text, but never got around to it. Now, thanks to his new transformation, he may never get the chance to again... :fluttercry:

7943577 Glad we understand each other. We still friends now? :raritywink:

7943480
Would you mind if I came up with an introduction? I'll keep the video privat until you say you like it, or want me to delete it.

7944748 Sure, go ahead. I look forward to seeing it. Send me a link please, ASAP. ;

7943849 yeah. we're still friends :twilightsmile:

btw, I was kind of confused how you didn't get the question right the first time, because I did drop a hint below my second comment for this story :twilightsheepish: maybe you didn't check what I had below it? :twilightoops: just a little bit confused

but you know, if it will be interesting if this main character becomes Starlight Glimmer, it would be kind of neat if he became her with her current mane style from season 6 onward, because out of Starlight Glimmer's two different mane styles, I kind of like the one she has from season 6 onwards because she does look cute with that mane style

7944829
Of course me being me, the one day I had a whole lot of extra time, I put it off. Probably going to be this weekend.
