This story was inspired by The Stanley Parable.
This story was not inspired by The Stanley Parable.
This story is essentially a text version of the Half-Life 2 mod except that it's ponified, it goes through a little differently, and has three additional endings. Or maybe it doesn't. You're welcome to go count them.
This story is about choice and freedom, possibly, but actually it might be about something else. Either way, you'll find yourself wondering why you bothered reading it in the first place.
The story tags are accurate and you'll just have to trust me on that. I think we've developed a good enough relationship for trust to be a non-issue. I mean you've already read ten sentences from me so far, or was that eleven? I don't know, you'll probably have to go back and check. Anyway, it's always a good idea to trust the narrator and follow his/her instructions. If you didn't then there wouldn't be much point in them trying to tell a story, now would there?
A parable for the ages. It touched my heart 136 times so far. It really hurts. How do I make that stop?
Wait a tick, what I am doing here, commenting on my own story? The roles aren't supposed to reverse until later.
Who reversed the roles so they could reverse the roles early?
I forgot how much I hate the Narrator in Stanley Parable

I just read your story and I must say it was the most annoying... sorry, that's not me.
And there's no Stanley here.
What am I even doing? Writing Raphael's letter for STANLEY Parable here, to no-stanley... Let's try again.
Seriously, forget everything I wrote.
Hello. Good story and good writing. Or not. But I enjoyed it , so... nothing. Or something. I'm not lying.
Yet.
Fave and everything included.
Goddammit, I literally just had the idea to do this, and was even going to name it the exact same thing. Now I feel unoriginal for not making a story about two already existing universes first.
Links are not working! O_O
Edit:
I had to realize, this is the manual, copy-paste version.
....
Edit 2:
I hope I'm not the only one who 'heard' the Narrator's voice while reading.
Huh guys?
Guys?
Guys?...
Damn! I had planned to make one of these with Twilight...
You wouldn't mind if I did, would you?

"That may have been me." said TheNarrator's Narrator as he narrated about how he narrated about narration.
And then everything went black.
I almost didn't scroll down. WHY DIDN'T I STOP?
Thank you for this.
This feels like this story's prequel.
