The Great and Powerful Trixie is woken up by the voice of a narrator that's both around her and inside her head. To further annoy her, she can't seem to get rid of him, even though he has nearly lost control of the entire situation.
Neither of them are going to have a good time.
Rated E for meta-humor, crass banter and self-deprecation.

That's a phrase that melts my heart.
Would this be the same narrator from this story: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/95183/twilight-hears-the-narrator ?
8232579
I'll leave that for you to decide.
This was fun!
Any chance of more?
8232658
Of this story? Maybe a sequel if it gets enough traction.
Of stories like this in the future? Sure! I don't see why not.
god dammit man this is good
8232671
Glad to hear it.
Noice.
This wouldn't be happening if David Attenborough was narrating.
Writing something like this, that European air must be messing with your head, Jack
Still, the ham was good, also I may or may not have a surprise for you when you get back. Maybe if you're a good little colt, eheh.
i remember a game that had a simuler twist where the main character would contently argue with the narrator it was a very funny game as this is a very funny story

Thank you!

The narrator has proven to be quite unreliable.
8233092
They don't have smoking regulations like they do in the US, I swear.

Thanks!

no prob bob ... er jack
This reminds Stanley of the game that he was featured in called The Stanley Parable. Stanley questioned whether this was intentional or not, but he realized he didn't really care and decided the story was mind bending enough to put on his favorites shelf.
In all seriousness, this was an entertaining read and I rather enjoyed it.

Thank you.
Finally caught some time to read this.
And you're right, I did like it :V
It was an amusing read, definitely funny. Not like laugh-out-loud funny, but I had a stupid grin across my face the entire time.
Good job, Jack. Also, nice job on really bringing the idea to life—I'm sure it's been done before, but this is the first time I'm reading the concept, and I enjoyed it a lot. ^^
And just like that, the narrator has been effectively "owned" by Starlight Glimmer.
This was a short but sweet story to read. I'm definitely keeping this in my favorites. Thanks for writing it!

Thanks for reading it.
Huh... I can see this being cannon and that's saying something. Huston, we have no problems
8279757
No, that would require the writing team to be creative.
8279761 That hasn't stopped Pinkie Pie.
That was cute
8298678
Thanks, man.
Of course the narrator had to narrate "The great and Powerful Trixie" and of course she would be annoyed and sassy about it . Nice job JackRipper.

Thank you.
This was amazing. Buy the time you see this comment, I'll probably have moved this story to my favorites. It's that good. Though it seems Trixie is upset about you calling her a "second-rate magician" in the title of your chapter...
8384167
Thank you kindly.
Indeed.
Yes, quite good.
Guess agaaain~!
Every so often I feel like I can hear a narrator for me. Maybe cause I'm crazy. So did they kill the narrator or... what would that be called? Narrataside? Actually I like that word, it sounds awesome!
8502300
The didn't kill the narrator so much as they ended the story. Your ending would be a little dark for an E-rated story.
8502302
Before I say this, I have to ask if you like dark humor?
8502309
Celestia's Tea Conquest has a lot of dark humor. It's the best kind of humor in my opinion.
8502384
Well then, I suppose, if my theory is correct, this narrator will meet Twilight.

F for Narrator. So is he dead, or...?
9273106
I think so.
I thought this was going to be my biggest laugh, but then there was this:
Then I really cracked up.
This was a fun little fic. Reminded me of Stranger Than Fiction, except wayyyy less dark. Always gotta love Trixie being Trixie.

Oh gosh, you had to pick one of the older ones huh? Thanks for reading nonetheless, even if it is one of my more amateur pieces.
