One moment, Vignette Valencia was at a convention, satisfied with her recent purchase of the most stunning ruby necklace she’d ever seen. The next, she was a pony in a strange world.
And what's a girl to do in a strange world but write about her experiences?

So, just to be clear, Vignette got capital-D Displaced and ended up in a borderline selfcestual relationship with Adagio?

Yuppers!
I was hoping you'd like some of those small details
And yeah, I do kinda agree that parts of this read more like text-to-speech than regular writing. But, like, Vignette would totes be super theatric in her writing too, I think 
Thanks for putting this contest thingy together! I had a lot of fun putting this together for it
By the way, you might want to include a message in your story about if or not they'll be cross-overs with other displaced, that way people don't bother you about it if you're not readdy/not planning to cross-over.
OMG, this is the best displaced story I've read in like forever!
Hey sweetie, thanks for a lovely run of one good thing after another:
1. Someone added a story to the group I started.
2. That story is not porn! Seriously, this is the first non-porn story with Vignette tagged that isn't written by me! It's only been, like, three months since Rollercoaster of Friendship or something...
3. Then I saw the name of the person who wrote it.
4. Then I read the story.
It's really good! Everyone's always like all nyah nyah nyah people shouldn't be superficial about good looks, but it's like, if you've got it, don't insult those who haven't by being all shy about it. And this story kind of took that and ran with it, and made it endearing. I do kind of wish there was still one character at the end of it all who still looked like Vignette, just so that someone did? Obviously you couldn't have Adagio look like her, but maybe Fluttershy dresses like her one Nightmare Night and everyone says she fine so she sticks with it. Maybe the surprise twist is that it's her who then dies of broken pelvis?
Love your cover art, too, it's like Disco fro meets sixties hippie something
Make sure you find lots of people to downvote your story, apparently that's the most important thing all stories about Vignette have in common
It's like they don't understand irony.

EEEEE this is the first nice comment I've seen from you on anything thankies I'm so flattered
Yeah, I figured every displaced fic ever is trying to pretend that they're something more than the author's fantasies brought to the page, so I figured that just being honest about the trope's inherently shameless escapism would be a neat spin to put on it
Like, sure, yeah, if you were suddenly turned into your favorite character and dumped into your favorite world, you could go off and do a badass quest or try to get back home or whatever, but who'd actually do that, right?
There's probs a pony Vignette somewhere in Equestria, right?
Just 'cause we don't see her here doesn't mean she's not off doing her own thing, blissfully unaware of how jealous she oughtta be 
Thankies!
Yeah, I dunno what's up, I guess Fimfiction's, like asleep or something, 'cause the downvoting Vignette-haters are sooo slacking off here so far
9193134
Uh. I mean. I could do that, I guess, yeah? Maybe it's just me, but I'm not really seeing a reason why I'd have to, though? I've literally never seen stories, displaced or otherwise, talking about potential crossovers like that until you mentioned it and I took a peek at your stories. And this story's marked complete, so I'm not sure why anyone would think there'd be an opportunity to crossover with it?
So, I appreciate the thought, but I think I'm fine not saying anything about that.
9195660
Alright, I was suggesting it incase you were to get popular and suddenly you find your inbox full of messages of people wanting to cross-over.
9195663 But, lyk, y would they do that tho? Why would anyone want to write a crossover with this story instead of coming up with their own original ideas?
9196483
Because that's the point of the Displaced lore, but of course cross-overs are optional and not required, there are stories out there that have never had a single cross-over with other Displaced within the multiverse
9196490 Ok, but, like... what Displaced lore? I thought it was just a genre of stories that follow the setup formula of someone buying a cosplay item at a convention, waking up in Equestria and thinking they have a story worth telling?
I hadn't noticed the crossover element between stories before, is that something lots of Displaced stories go for then?
9196653
the Displaced genre share the "one big multiverse" basic concept, which is what differencies it from simple crossovers: the displaced can come and go, and their action leave a mark on the story, for as little as it may be
in theory, all displaced story have a loose common canon they came down (who are the displacer? why do they do it?), but unless the story touches directly on those point, it can be completelly ignored
using the "x goes to a convention and get powers" is the easiest and because of it, the most used excuse for displacement, since it gives an easy and clear way to describe the antefact, but there are no real limits on that. in theory, even a pre-existing charather from another fictional universe, like a Jedi or a metahuman could be displaced, but I personally never found a story of those that reach a conclusion

serPomiz explained a bit of this. The muliverse takes place in a giant forever growing space known as the void; a very dangerous place of paradoxal chaos. The tokens were created as a safety measurement so that the Displaced can travel through the void without harm if another Displaced summons them. Sadly, alot of cross-overs from writers who are new to writing or the Displaced genre will end up either doing too many cross-overs and thus it can ruin their story, or worse the second Displaced stays in the story for too long and never helped advance the plot, character development, or world building.
The comic con and the merchant is only the basics of a Displaced, but again it is not required as humans or other characters can be Displaced by other powerful beings without needing those elements.
This is quite an interesting story from both the format of a running diary and the taking of that well used Displaced idea and putting a fun twist on it. (How many Displaced stories has the displaced person meeting the 'actual' villain they've displaced?)
Both Vignette and Adagio such narcissists that of course they would hook up and can't keep their hooves off each other!
I also like Vignette's Invader Zim like notions “Ponies are ruled by the
tallestmost beautiful one!” and the idea of her writing to Celestia for a showdown.One tricky thing of the story though, is that for those unfamiliar with the Displaced concept might get a little lost with what happened exactly. I know the diary format constrains a little, but perhaps having Vignette complain about accepting gifts from weirdo fans with snaggle tooths and now she can't get this stupid ruby pendent off especially with hooves, yadda yadda. Just a sentence or two to put in the information we get from the description in the story itself.
Also, if Vignette's the one with the ruby collar does it mean actual Adagio is bare-necked? Perhaps Adagio acts like Vignette's coach to prep her for that upcoming beauty 'bout. Or they practice a perfectly synchronized duet together. Could make for a fun second chapter
All and all a fun story and a good entry! Love to see you write more with the premise!

A comment! A week after the story's published!
That's one of the things that irks me most about Displaced fics, is that they're not only putting in a less interesting character than the actual villain or whatever would be, but passing up that juicy selfcest opportunity
Or, I mean, I guess you could have a more serious take on a villain meeting someone displaced as them, but, like... they wouldn't kiss and stuff, so where's the fun in that, right?
So that little void to fill and also how I've never seen a canon character being displaced were big motive thingies for me to write this.
Hmm... yeah, okay, good point. I'd question how someone would manage to frequent the site for long and not stumble across a Displaced fic sooner or later, but yeah, it would be better to be safe. I'll do a fiddly edit and see if there's a bit where a bit like that could fit
I'd assume so, yeah? Dagi's gem still got broken (
)so I'd assume that the mirror portal didn't give her a new one, in which case, yeah, she'd be bare-necked.
Love the image, it's cute as a bunny with a lollipop, but I don't know if I can see that happening?
Firstly, they'd have to be in the same room and not be hugging/kissing/fadoodling/what-have-you. Bit tricky for them
But also, Adagio can't sing anymore and there's only the one gem. Buuut they do have the mirror thing, so... bugger, I'm picturing Vignette going back to buy more siren gems and displace herself over and over again but having to take a bunch of tries to get back as Adagio
Thankies
I don't have any plans for the moment, sorry--even this was something I spewed out in under 24 hours, so I can't say I ever had a plan. I'm not totally against the idea (If nothing else, the world needs more Adagio/VignettAdagio), though, so we'll see what happens.
Congratulations, sir or madam. You have written the first Vignette Valencia story I ever upvoted :) This was absurd and very in-character, and the bizarre twist with Adagio was also awesome. Nice work, and best of luck in the contest!

Vignette needs more love, seriously.
Thankies!
I hope your own entry is going well
...stunning Ruby necklace, huh?
...Adagio Dazzle, huh?

Aaand
You know what. I normally despise the f***ing s**t stains on existance that are Displaced stories. But this may be the only good one ever done. Period.
Have an upvote.
9252740
Yeah, I dunno what all those other Displaced authors are doing. So many of them are so serious and like trying to be cool and stuff and it's just like, guys, this idea is stupid, you can't make it work.
So... yeah, I can fully believe that the only Displaced story you've liked is the one that's poking fun at the genre.
Thanku muchmuch for the upvote
This is an E? Funny, since I count even Rollercoaster of friendship as a T
This was an absolutely adorable piece though why didn't Twilight used the mirror portal to bring her back to the EQG world?
