goddamn why wont this sadness leave me alone already! i was one of the first people to read it right after it was posted and thinking about it still makes me sad
Well, when I said she wasn't actually from the show, I meant that you wouldn't turn on the Hub and see the disabled little pony with the abusive parents. I could have phrased that better.
Also, sorry, I'm a man. I decided to plow into this despite that.
Now I wonder... Does Lauren Faust know about this fan fic? Somebody should link in her DA account to "Bubbles" and "Today, Tomorrow and Forever". Just to know what she thinks.
@Anonymous Lauren does not read fics. She doesn't have the time, and there are legal reasons (most cartoon studios make creators sign a contract saying won't read fics. That way fanfic authors can't accuse them of stealing their ideas.)
If she HAS read any fanfics, she will never admit to it. She could lose her job if she did.
Really moving story. It seems this cuts off even more abruptly than when you read it, leaving that empty feeling to be washed over by sadness when you realize what actually happened.
Although I do have to say, I laughed a little bit when the narrator says, "And the mommy says *cue Low Pitched Hulk Voice* 'GET UP.'"

Man, what is it with sad Derpy stories? They seem to affect this fandom like nothing else.
ReplyDeleteThe story with the second most five-stars on this site (as far as I can tell anyway) is Today, Tomorrow and Forever, which is also a sad Derpy fic.
Anyway, I quite enjoyed this reading. It's still just as moving when you hear it as it is when you read it.

damn i'm sad now
ReplyDeleteI've never been so depressed.
ReplyDeleteAwesome my favorite fanfic is now a video!
ReplyDeleteMy throat balled up when I first read it, and I almost cried when someone else read it aloud.
ReplyDeleteWhoever the author is, I thank you.
"Not actually in the show"
ReplyDeletewat.
Also, this reading could use a female voice, cause, you know, it's from derpy's perspective and everything.

ReplyDeleteI laughed, 2 minutes later I stopped laughing. Good show bro and amazing delivery throughout.
ReplyDeleteThat story is pretty much the saddest thing.

I may watch it, it was the first fanfiction I've ever read. Also @Anon, she's not aloud read fanfictions for legal reason
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteshe won't read fanfics. Ever. No matter how much you nag or beg or plead.
Well maybe when the show's all over. But that's hopefully more than a year away.
I don't want to read that fic again, or listen to it...it's fucking depresing :(
ReplyDeleteAww.... I was gonna do this... Oh well! I'll just have to have voice actors now. :3
ReplyDeleteSuch a sad story...
Too much of the word "Derpy".
ReplyDeleteAny possibility to have it available for downloading?
ReplyDeleteI'm not gonna lie, I frickin' bawled when I read that fanfic so I'm not going to LISTEN to it.
ReplyDelete..That picture tough. :(

ReplyDeleteSome sort of anti spy bot thing keeps eliminating my links, but you can find it under the description on youtube.
That's an outstanding piece of work, but horribly sad.
ReplyDeleteI'ma go be depressed forever now, kay? ;_;
ReplyDeleteThis makes me hate Miss Derpy's mother even more. Especially after reading this story.

Derpy is a background pony.. only has cameos. >>
ReplyDeletemy only solace is knowing that derpy has found a home and a life in ponyville :]
ReplyDelete@Bobcat
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! :)
Derpabuse isn't for me.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Daddy says derpy is a "Pegasus" but Mommy says derpy is a "retard" but Daddy never told derpy what that meant.
ReplyDeleteVery good. Any chance of a Simply Rarity reading?
ReplyDeleteI slammed my head on a table because of this fic. IT'S JUST SO SAD!!!
ReplyDeleteSo I was listening and reading along at the same time.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've read this and it broke my heart.
oh god, why?
