*gasp* what happened to Derpy? :raritycry:

I haven't a clue. I wrote this in a half awake state.

~Skeeter The Lurker

Is this your take on Derpy's part on the show ?

Then just ... Wow. :fluttercry:

Is this when Derpy disappeared for a while? Either way you answer, I like imagining it was the show's creators thinking about that time. Lovely work. It was a nice read.

Somepony has posted the story.....:fluttershysad::pinkiehappy:

I find it rather amusing that some of the greatest stories come to life at the early hours of the morning. It was a nice story to read while i wait on updates and work on my own.

The creators (Hasbro) killed her. This is what's running through their minds as they decided to remove her.

Part of me is telling me, don't review this story, it will be pointless. Besides that half though, is a person telling me to write a review to make the author happy. Whatever floats my boat.

It's no secret that it's about Hasbro (or Lauren Faust) "killing" Derpy Hooves. I kinda actually like it. This story is actually telling part of the truth about the character's existence. Her eyes were a graphical error in the first episode, nothing more, nothing less. A mistake. The mistake though turned into a fan base favorite. Even though she's not hated (at least not to most people) and was not the inspiration for the main plot point of the show, it still gave us some nice fanon about the character. Which, obviously, I like.

Now, time for the negatives. Due to me being a perfectionist nitpick, I personally don't like the length. I know this story is nice and simple, so it doesn't have to be three-thousand words long to be good, then again, nitpick. Another nitpick, this story didn't exactly make me "sad". What do I mean? It means that I didn't get the feels, then again, I'm near heartless (ex: I didn't cry at the ending of My Little Dashie).

That's pretty much of what I think of this story, now to rate it...

This is gonna be a iffy one, let's say, 3/5 (Good time-passer).

Better than I expected, actually... Considering I wrote it on an iPhone within a hour.

Also... You didn't find the grammar to be bad? At all? I never even bothered to edit it...

~Skeeter The Lurker

3131665 Well that's one thing I have utterly forgot. You used some two sentence starters, told more than showed, and the grammar was a bit iffy. Nonetheless, I still liked the story and probably read it again some time. Even though this fic was made on the most boring place that exists, while being half-asleep. The laundromat.

No need to feel disappointed because of that.

Thank you. I mean it.

~Skeeter The Lurker

3131747 Well, it's always nice to make somebody happy.

This... was beautiful.
That's all I can say.
Good show, sir, good show.

Gods damn this was confusing but very well thought of, everyone creates Derpy in their own way, I myself prefer her to be a smoking, swearing, drinking badass who gives a shit about nopony or creature but her sister/daughter, even the Gods themselves, but everyone is different I suppose, no judgment here, very impressive job:rainbowkiss:

Stay gold Derpy Hooves, Stay gold.

Is the mistake when Derpy actually got a name?

People were outraged that she was Derpy Hooves and not Ditzy Doo or something. Or was it when they started fixing Derpy's eyes, so that they were normal?

DO NOT DELETE WHAT IS PERFECT, UNLESS IT IS TO GOOD FOR EVEN YOU.

Stay in there derpy :derpyderp2: you are no mistake, but a wonderful gift that out shines even the best of ponies.
Your eyes are what make you special, always remember that.

:heart::derpyderp2::derpytongue2:

Well done I shed one single tear in your honor!

:fluttercry::raritydespair:
I give you ✴✴✴✴✴
5 stars congrats!

You know. It's been a while since <2000 words had made me stop and think. Bravo, man. I really wish some people could see it like this. :moustache:

I liked this quite a bit, actually. It felt heartfelt. It felt like it was actually a one-sided letter of remorse.

Like and a favorite from me.

Oh, and here are a few corrections that I found. :raritywink:

“Hey look,” they said,

The last comma here should be a period.

Everytime, that would scour for you,

"Everytime" isn't a word—need a space in there; and I'm pretty sure that "that" is supposed to be "they."

too easy for you and we began to

Comma after "you."

“Well,” we thought,

Lowercase "Y."

...That's all you found wrong with it?

Huh... Kinda surprised, really.

Thanks for reading!

That's my quick skim: it doesn't include debatable errors, awkward wording, or anything else. I don't know if I would say that's all. :twistnerd:

And no problem. It was worth my time.

What's funny is that Derpy Hooves' eyes were originally an animation error.

Marvellous. Simply marvellous.

If I'd read this when you first wrote it, it would be a lot more depressing.

She's back with a vengeance, and living life to the fullest.
