Confound these ponies they drive me todrink fic. Anyway—OMG PONY OTP FTWWWW.
Okay the characterization scared the shit out of me. You have two background ponies who have barely spoken in going on two seasons now with little in the way of voice reference, so we’ve got one hell of a challenge. Besides which, how do you characterize Derpy—mentally challenged, kinda nutty or just cockeyed? I was asked to write her as being in the same vein as A-Team Murdock in this case. And thus we have a strange little marriage of mind canon and fanon. :shrug:
Given that Doctor Whooves looks so much like David Tennant, that's where I pulled most of my inspiration and the mental voice when I wrote the dialogue*. The scarf was kind of a last minute thing, a (very) little tip of the hat to the Fourth Doctor's mile-long scarf. xD
Canon Notes: I'm dismissing Derpy having an older daughter (Dinky's sister), as seen in Sisterhooves Social in the 5 November 2011 episode. If I recall correctly, the Dinky there had a Cutie Mark, and it's not like animator's can make a new pony every single time. Crowd scenes would be such a bitch otherwise. So before you ask—I'm writing that Dinky off as a different pony, an extra, and there is no older sister.Only Zuul.
* I now want someone to spoof the line, "I'm the Doctor and I just snogged Madame du Pompadour! 8D " with Doctor Whooves and Derpy. Just sayin'.
Jesus I had so much fun writing this. Enjoy!
