In all honesty, if S7 doesn't adress what kind of friendship Discord and Fluttershy has, then I may as well proceed with my own interpretation. I hate that the show has a blatant Mary Sue now, and that suddenly everyone, even Discord absolutely loves her

At this point they both are family

>>29703507
Yes, and I wasn't even saying that they should come and say if they are a couple or not. I'm saying that there needs to be an episode solely focused on Fluttershy and Discord, to see why they care about each other and how their friendship is. Because you know, that would actually flesh out both characters and their interactions.

>>29703550
There is plenty of fun facts about those two
Butterfly effect (Fluttershy cutie mark being butterflies) and Discord with his chaos theory, yet again I could be just imagining it.

Well 2 more episodes confirmed for S8. Hopefully they will adress their relationship as something more than ship tease. It would be cool if we got an actual Fluttershy episode where she interact with Discord rather than Discord shenangans where Fluttershy is just a plot device that motivate Discord to interact with other characters.
Their only duo episode was Keep Calm and Flutter On. The Gala episode was mostly Discord observing passive Fluttershy.

>>29703583
That's exactly what I want. Just a simple episode with Fluttershy and Discord being friends, done for the sake of simply exploring the characters's friendship.

did last thread become kill?

What do you think, friend?

Yes!

Surprised that last one died so quickly. I posted after Erf was done, resumed sleeping, then was dead when I woke up.

>>29703874
It's all Erfanons fault. He ruins anything and everything good.

>>29703959
That lil nigga is going nuclear

>>29704306
Yeah it's going to be really bad. I feel for the guy.

You know it always makes me wonder about why the best characters of the thread are villains, Discord, Chrysalis and Eris

>>29704729
>Eris
>Villain
Flim and Flam were more evil than her

>>29704757
How so? Eris is much more mean spirited than them

>>29704759
>Flim and Flam
Got over a world
>Eris
Defeated by laser sisters

>>29704913
Yeah but FlimFlam actually saved the world while Eris keeps acting like a turbo bitch

>>29705089
>Eris
>Bakes shit with Pinkie
>Loves Fluttershy like family
>Legit loves Discord like a dad
>Actually cares and loves Anon like a little brother
>Cadence and her immediatly clicks
>Actively helping in bringing suffering to Chrysalis
>Somehow a villain

>>29705089
>Flim Flam
>Saved the world

technically they did stop chrysalis and sombra, while sacrificing multitudes of ponies and eventually almost causing the death of their own world.

ARgh, fell to the sleeps and thread dies. But regardless, that was one hell of a nice update. I didn't see the allegory you were drawing up with the Good Fellows until it hit, and that was masterful.

Chrysalis was adorable too. This is cementing what Anon fears to be loosing along with his interior unresolved conflict.

>Butterfly effect? You do remember hearing that before somewhere. No, not the movie. It was something like… small things having big effects on anything, right?
>You nod while saying the exact thoughts you had to Discord
“I do, it’s like, something tiny having a big effect on something major. Even the slightest of actions can do something”
>Discord nods. “Exactly. And you my boy… just got the perfect talent for a prince of chaos. You’ve changed pony’s destinies as you said and even saved yourself from a stone prison… although you had my help there too. But the point is that you, my son, are now are in possession of a golden destiny moving onwards…”
>A golden destiny, uh? Well, you feel pretty great now, better now than ever. Nothing can ruin this moment!
>”Ehemm.” You hear a filly voice squeaking in the background. “Forgetting about somepony?”
>That voice! It couldn’t be, no way!
>”Oh right, almost forgot about our tiny guest over there amid all this sudden cutie mark stuff!” Discord pulled a red curtain out of nowhere and while wearing a black tuxedo, he started speaking as in a TV game show. “Now son, I present you behind the curtain number one!” He pulled it out and behind it was… oh… “Ta-Da!”
>Part of you wished your eyes were lying to you or it was some illusion from Discord, but if it wasn’t… then it was her, the marshmallow filly from town that you freed with the changelings back in Discord’s castle
“S-Sweetie Belle?”
> Her presence was sudden… didn’t you tell her to never come back to see you? Even with a cutie mark and talent in chaos, she is at risk being with you.
“What are you doing here?”
>She rolled her eyes and ignored you for a bit while talking to Discord
>”Finally… what took you so long? I was getting annoyed…”
>She is ignoring you? Why? You had something on your face?

>>29710032

>Wait, annoyed?
“W-What’s going on? Why is she here? I thought-“
> You stop mid sentence before you spill the beans.
“I… thought she was in the castle, what are you doing in here?”
>Discord placed his claw on Sweetie Belles’ forehead to stop her from moving forward and he started talking with you first
>”Ah you see my son… she is here because I gotta say, you sure copy some of the tricks of your ol’ dad here.” A bit of laughter came from him. “Trying to use the changelings into rescuing the ponies was a nice idea. Right chrysi?”
>The filly growled at him
>”Stop. Calling me like that.”
>Discord moved away and with a stoic face he answered her. “Gee, just have a bit of fun once in awhile, don’t be a harsh buggy wuggy.”
>…Chrysi? …Buggy? Oh no, your logic is coming home to roost
“You… aren’t Sweetie Belle, are you?”
>With a smirk and a chuckle the disguised filly stared at you
>”Good to see you are not entirely a fool like your father, still…” The filly shape shifts into her natural and disgusting original form, the queen of the changelings, Queen Chrysalis. All that disgust of a bug and that double voice coming back again. “You need to grow to understand how this world works…”
>She slowly made her way sauntering slowly up to you and looked down her muzzle at you with a sly smile
>”Using my children for your foolish plans was clever… NOT!” She started to evilly laugh. “Ah… young love is the most juicy of all, even more from a forbidden love such as yours.”
>You were left with your mouth agape in the shock and horror. Did she do something to Sweetie Belle? Did she hurt her? She… mentioned love. …OH RIGHT DAMN, those pests can feed on love! And Sweetie Belle was really into you that time.
>She… oh no!

>>29710043

“WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?”
>Chrysalis innocently placed a hoof on her chest and looked around as if you were talking to someone else
>”Me? I did nothing! My children on the other hoof…” That… cheeky smirk of her was back, more sinister than nothing. “I think they had a FEAST on that filly of yours, let alone they haven’t eaten some good love in a while. By now that filly must be an empty shell in sorrow… mmmhahaha…” She placed her hoof under your chin. “How truly brave on your part to use your title in luring my children toward your sway… but a title as yours don’t mean a thing kid, you are too young and you don’t show even a little bit of power like the jester that your father is.”
>Discord placed both his paw and claw on his cheeks while trying not to blush at what Chrysalis said as he twitters
>”Oh, my! I appreciate that chrysi, I really do! You make me blush…”
>Chrysalis just growled back at him
>”STOP CALLING ME LIKE THAT YOU PEST!”
>You were starting to shake… as you feel…. Fucking anger and not a further care about it.
>You stare angrily at Discord and yell at him
“YOU PROMISED ME! YOU PROMISED YOU WON’T HURT HER! SHE WASN’T PART OF IT!”
>You were heavy breathing, trying to control yourself. This isn’t possible; this just… couldn’t be possible. This must be a joke! HIS joke! They don’t hurt kids! They just make them little assholes with that corruption!
>You don’t want to believe it’s true, you really don’t! This is a joke! An illusion! A fake! This… Must be all a prank! A big, bad, prank!
>”I did, I gave my draconequus word. Don’t you remember? It was your lovely bug queen right in front of you that did something to the filly. I promised I wouldn’t touch even the tiniest of hairs of hers, and I kept my word to the letter, but alas! Dear Chrysi wasn’t in on the deal.”
>……

>>29710134

>It hurts… deep inside, it hurts. Why does it hurt to lose this filly? You meet her once and… it just went like that. You betrayed her home, yet you wanted her to be… free
>Why…
>Why does it hurt?
>You aren’t thinking like an adult anymore. You aren’t talking like an adult anymore. Logic…? You won’t understand it anymore at this rate.
>You need to… calm down. At this rate you are going to explode in rage
>Queen Chrysalis just laughed at you, trying to provoke you
>But what was there left to provoke in you? You were done. She won. Discord won. You lost.
>They had the victory while you just had a broken promise in your hands… hooves… whatever
>You turn around and start walking your way out of the cave, there is nothing left for you in here or anything to argue. You aren’t the kind of guy that gets pissed off that easy… but this body, this kid body… could be.
>”What is it, kid? Giving up already? I thought you were that soooo~ marvelous “Hero colt” that little marshmallow filly cried for while my children were ceaselessly feeding on her”
>You stopped walking
“…”
>”Did I hit a nerve? Hmm?”
>You are not… a damn hero
>”Maybe, just maybe; I could let you visit her if you praised me from now on instead of your silly father. Of course, you would be visiting a pony without any emotion… but, I can sense the love you feel for her hasn’t changed, don’t you lie to yourself, kid…”
> You are not a hero!
>”Or should I keep calling for you like she did?”
>You grit your teeth as the damn bug queen keeps on teasing you to hell
>”Heeeeero-“
>And just like that, you turn around and look onto her
>Anger, so much anger was in your veins. You could feel your blood boil
>You walk… then start running until you are near her, only to notice that… she hasn’t moved ever since she said the first word. She never finished the word now that you see

>>29710032
It's shit.

>>29710147

>”So my predictions have been found true…” The voice of Discord came by your side. “Your emotions are attached to your chaotic behavior, it’s such a wonderful discovery…”
“And? That’s not gonna stop me into hurting this damn bug…”
>”Yes, I know you want to beat her to… what you humans say? “Death”? Hmmm right, that’s it. But, do take a moment out of your busy schedule to hear me out on this, Alberto. “ Discord stopped talking as to see if you were calming down. Soon you did.
“What?”
>”Look around… and tell me what you see in this magical world of uncertainty!”
>You do as he says, you look around and… are not sure what or when this happened.
>Around the entire cave were if not hundreds then thousands of… you. They were froze in place and each one had the exact same reaction you had when you were angered by Chrysalis.
>Each one had wrath twisting his face.
>”Now that’s being productive! You learned a new trick and it only cost some time, a town, a bug and a filly to do the job!”
>Is he being fucking serious!?
“YOU planned all this?”
>He shrugged.
>”Maybe yes, maybe not. All I wanted for you was to concentrate in what is important, the chaos and not the ridiculous friendship that those ponies have. You see, that little filly was an obstacle to your potential, and so was the town. But now? She isn’t! And take a good look at what your chaotic powers can already create!”
>Discord placed his paw over your shoulder
>”Just imagine how many powers you can collect… imagine how far you can go! You can have more fillies, just… ignore that last one, she was too white and squeaky anyway.”
>You stared at your clones again… each one with an angry face, one that spelled “murder” by looking at it
>…What were you thinking? Why are you doing this? She… Sweetie Belle isn’t this worth it. You keep forgetting Discord is a god, Sweetie Belle is just… Sweetie Belle

>>29710231

>Your pony ears drop and each of the clones start to disappear from the cave, only leaving Discord, Chrysalis and… you
>”Feeling better now, son?”
“…Eventually, I will”
>You promised that you would protect her… you promised…
>This is your entire fault. You did this to her…
“…Eventually”
>Slowly, time started to resume and with it, the queen of the changelings finished her sentence
>”Colt.” She saw you and Discord together for a moment, something she didn’t see at first since you were almost leaving the cave. She rubbed her eyes and looked again at you two. “What the…”
>You need a change
>You need… to change
>You’ll find a way to… make things your way one day. You know you’ll see Sweetie Belle again; hopefully… you get to see her
>You are sorry.
>You are so sorry for her.
>It’s your fault and you can’t do anything, no words can change things now.
>But, the actions of your future self… will change. You will train, you will show that you are not a weakling and grow to be a prince, the prince… of chaos! You did already take the first step with your cutie mark, but you need more time, more training, more… power!
>Chaos comes in many ways… either being chaotic good, neutral or bad… that was Discord’s rule, chaos gives you powers. There surely is a hole in the contract for you to get with your way.
>You will try each and every one of them and you will become the best prince of chaos Discord has ever seen.
>You need to sleep… regain strength and move on.
>But before you go out of the cave, you say one last thing to Chrysalis
“I hope you win that war.” You say while not avoiding eye contact with the Queen.

>She finds that statement odd and pondered it for a brief moment
>”Hmm? Why’s that?” Chrysalis wondered. “If I were you, I would wish me nothing but defeat and destruction.”
“That way I can fight you and defeat you myself…”
>Discord ooe’d in the background while listening to you two
>”Hmm… so that’s it. Very well, kid.” Chrysalis started to hover, almost taking flight. “Now that’s an attitude of a prince… but I won’t go easy on you…” She started to crack on a bizarre laughter. “And once I defeat you and drain your whole body out of the love you have left… I will go for the fool you call “father”… and become the only ruler of this world!” Before Chrysalis flew out of the cave, she looked at you two again, specially you and quoted. “In the end, we’re all stories, kid. Just make your story a good one… just like I am going to! I’m going to make story by defeating not one but TWO kings! Mwahahaha! Hahahaha!”
>Chrysalis flew away out of the cave and while exiting the cave, thousands of their children flew at her side in a straight line into the north
>You looked at the swarm went away in the chaotic pink sky and with an expression filled with determination, you say to yourself
“Game on, perra.”


And with that I end the chapter 12, Golden Destiny!
Of course with this ends my serious writing and next chapter returns with some comedy and something something cute stuff
Be advised, I will do as Elo did once and some time will pass between this chapter and the other.

>>29710327
Yeah but how will you fix the fact that alberto is absolutely retarded? Not even memeing this time, the fact that he follows discord so loyally and without any doubt on his mind makes it look like as if Alberto had the IQ of a mushroom

>>29711398
Alberto isn't retarded, yes he has done dumb choices but in reality, he at the beginning thought Discord was the good guy and everyone else wanted him down, so he was loyal to his word.
Slowly he saw that he was wrong and he is the bad guy and that's why he at least wanted to do a good thing and save Sweetie Belle.
He is going to be careful about the choices he makes from here on.
This is why he didn't straight punched Chrysalis or started a fight with her, it was his fault, his choices.
And, as I said, some time will pass between this chapter and the new one.

>>29711536

>Have to think of something
>Have to think
>Have to
>"A-Anon, are you ok?" You hear Scrappy's voice as you feel movement on your bed.
>You tilt your head enough to look back. There he was/ Looking as worried as ever.
"I thought Chrysalis told you to go back to your post?"
>You try to sound stoic.
>"I-I know. But I was worried. You seem really really hurt."
"I'm really really not. I'm just tired. Look, Applebloom probably wants to see you. Just go to her and let me nap."
>"But, even the queen is worried about you. I have to make sure you're ok"
>Scrappy brazenly stepped close to you and started massaging your head. "Does this help?"
>You shoo him away and turn the other direction. Getting annoyed.
"No, leave me be Scrappy. Besides, did she say she was worried? Or are you assuming?"
>"Well..erm. She didn't say she was worried. But I could feel it."
>Feel it?
>Being her spawn, it was possible he could have actually felt something. Especially since they feed off emotions in the first place.
>Chrysalis was worried? Was that progress?
"Or maybe, you really were the only one she could relate to.
"Scappy, let me ask you a question. Do you think your Queen really wants to crush all the ponies?"
>You look back at him expecting something. But that something was a resounding nod. "Mhmmm!She's always thinking about it. But she doesn't think of crushing you. Just them...which...ngh" Scrappy feels a heaviness in his buggy heart. Enough to put a hoof to his chest. "W-which, I wish she'd at least think it over. I don't want my friends to be crushed. But, she won't. She doesn't like any of my friends very much...she doesn't know their my friends..."

>>29713234
>Scrappy started to feel really down now as he slumped onto his belly. "Being the captain is hard..."
>You just stared at him. Anon, what are you even going to do with him? What's going to happen to him? The only real thing you could think of is to separate him from what's going to happen and make him a permadog. But would he be happy if that happened? Or would he go nuts? Or just become depressed....
>...fucking...
>You sigh and reach over to him and give him a pat on the head. He instinctly wags his insect like tail. But he still looked pretty down.
"I'll be alright. You really shouldn't worry too much alright? I'll figure something out about that. You really should get going though. As a farm dog, you have a lot of responsibilities to take care of. You don't want to make Applebloom look bad by not showing up, do you?"
>"N-No!" He quickly stands up and hops off the bed "I C-can't disappoint Master Applebloom! B-but..."
>He looks up back at you with sad eyes "I don't feel right just leaving when you seem so hurt by something."
>You change your tone to slight annoyed anger as you wag your hoof towards him with a scowl on your face.
"I Said I'm fine. I'm just tired dammit. And when you're tired, the best thing to let that tired pony do is SLEEEEEEP. All you're doing is making things worse right now"
>"....o-h, s-sorry Anon...I..I get it now. I'll go. Y-you sleep good, o-ok?" Now he felt bad. Feeling he was the cause of your current discomfort.
"Yeah, I will..."
>You flip around to face away from him.
"Don't worry about it. It'll be fine"
>"...ok....bye" Scrappy, with a long face and down trodden attitude leaves through the portal door. Only hoping you would be ok after a nap.
>But you couldn't nap. You lied. You were being bothered, that was obvious. How can you handle this? What trick could you pull that wouldn't piss off the princesses?
>As you laid there, thinking, contemplating, you went back to Scrappy's words about Chrysalis.

>>29713234
"Or maybe, you really were the only one she could relate to
>Or maybe, you really were the only one she could relate to

>>29713282
>Was she truly worried? Even if she was. It was too late. IT WAS TOO LATE! WHAT WERE YOU SUPPOSED TO DO TO PROTECT HER?!
"FUCKING DAMMIT!"
>You grab your pillow and throw it at the mirror. But you don't even make a crack in it.
"FUUUUUCK!"
>You got up and looked at the mirror, you looked at yourself. What a piece of shit! A PIECE OF SHIT!
>You slam your hoof into the mirror. But you don't damage it in any way. No matter how many times you lay into it.
"WHY?! WHY?! JUST...just..."
>You tried to hurt yourself through your own reflection. But as you look into it with tears, you realized you couldn't even do that.
"....what else could go wrong?"
>As you stared at your reflection. Contemplating. A bright light appears next to you. From it, a scooter dashes forward and smacks into you. Easily activating the house's personal barrier on you but still sending you into the wall, the ceiling, and then right to the floor, right on top of your head, like a pinball.
"E-eeee-eeegghh...ogh....w-what happened?"
>You just had to say those words...
>"MAIL CALL!" Cried out tthe familiar voice of the mischievous spirit of chaos
>You looked up in a daze. Discord was on a scooter in mailman clothes, holding some papers and a letter in his paw. When he noticed you, he looked down at you with a grin. "Anon, didn't you learn in school that standing in the middle of the road is dangerous?"
>....FUCKING
"STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE...WHAT?! YOU FUCKING PRICK! YOU RAN INTO ME WITH THAT FUCKING THING! THERE'S NOT EVEN A ROAD HERE! THIS IS MY BEDROOM!"
>Discord ignores you as he puts down the papers that were held by a small rope onto the ground next to you. Then he put down a purple letter. "Don't blame me. I have a schedule I have to abide by. How can I provide for this family if I get fired?"

>>29713311
>Suddenly, another Discord appears through the floor door, and starts yelling "DISCORD! YOU FILLED MY COFFEE CUP BY AN EXTRA OUNCE! YOU'RE FIRRRREEEEDDD!"
>"Hrn..." Discord, the one in mailman garb, just shrugs and tosses away his hat "Never mind Anon, back to looking in the papers."
>Why did you even bother?
"Discord...I'm having a bit of a crisis right now and...is this school work?"
>You look at the packed bundle, and it was indeed that. You toss it aside.
>"Of course, you did miss another day of school. And for all the wrong reasons too. Meeting with the princesses for some tea party. Egh, please tell me you at least put a spider in one of their cups" Discord looked at you as if there was nothing emotionally or physically wrong with you. Just treating things as seriously as he wishes to.
"Discord...."
>Fuck it, never mind. You grab the envelope and take a look at the front.
>The purple envelope was from Starlight.
>One of your friends. Someone you cared about....someone Chrysalis wanted to crush just for being a pony.
>...dammit
>You go to open the envelope when you noticed it's already been torn open.
".....Discord, did you open my mail?"
>He nods "Mhmm, has to make sure there weren't any bombs, or knives, or killer centaurs. Things like that." He shrugs with a constant smirk on his face.
"....yeah...."
>You pull the letter out of the envelope and start reading. It wasn't much. She was just letting you know she was ok and JUST NOW decided to make her way to the Crystal Empire, explaining she got held up by a few things.
>Part of you didn't care. Another part hurt that there was a part that didn't care. Considering Starlight was a dear friend of yours as well.

>>29713353
>You just toss the letter aside. And try to summon up the energy to care. You shouldn't just care about Chrysalis.
>But she was the only one in immediate, or near immediate danger.
>As you sat there. Discord suddenly plucked you by the scruff and placed you back on your bed. "Anon, What's the matter? You're typically more amusing when I do something like this. Is something wrong?"
"...What do you care?"
>You just look down in shame.
>"It could be the fact that you're one of my best friends next to Fluttershy. Come on kiddo!" Discord snaps his paw. Sending you both into a dimly lit study. You were on a long sofa as Discord sat beside you in a suede jacket. He held a notepad in his talons and a pen in his paws. "Tell me what the problem is"
>You couldn't...
"...I can't"
>"Because Celestia said so Anon? Whatever it is, it can't be that bad. And if you tell your dear ole dad. I bet you'll feel better than ever. And if not, we can go pull a prank on whatever princess bothered you during that little tea party. THEN you'll feel better. Either way, I'm not cold hearted. You're my friend, and I want to do anything I can to help. Preferably with the latter way of doing things" Discord said as he tried to look like a psychiatrist, sound like one too. He looked bored as he tapped his notepad.
>You can't tell him
>You can't....
>But..
>If he can help...
>If he could somehow help you make sure you don't lose ANY friends...
>...But Celestia...
>No fuck it, he was going to be told sooner or later
>..so why not now? Right now?
>...yeah

TIME FOR SOME CHAOS

>>29713457
Oh boy...this gonna be gud

>Your cousin nodded at Eris with a sly smile drawn on her face ”Yeah, I hope so- Ngh!” Cadence suddenly flinched as her face contorted a little in pain
>You of course, didn’t doubt to run to her aid… Because man, you were now wondering if maybe telling Cadence about the changelings was a good idea in the first place.
>That kind of stuff is pure stress… and stress can have very bad repercussions on a pregnant mare…
“C-Cadence, are you alright? Do you need something? P-Please tell me and I will get you whatever you want!”
>Cadence regained her composure a little, but you guess that she saw how worried you were because she immediately gave you a motherly smile as she messed your mane with her hoof “Shhh, shhh… it’s okay Anon, there’s nothing to worry about… the baby just likes to kick every now and then, that’s all” Cadence let out a small giggle and sighed “She’s going to be a mighty kicker, let me tell you that”
>”More like she’s gonna rock the world with her magic” Eris said as she hovered above Cadence “She hasn’t even been born yet and I can already sense some REALLY crazy magic coming from her”
>That seemed to have gotten Cadence’s curiosity because she immediately asked ”You… can do that?”
>”Of course I can!” Eris giggled as she waved her paw “That’s the one thing that I have going over my old man, because let’s face it… Raw power? He says that we’re equal… but I say that I have an itty bitty more magic than him, but experience in using chaos magic? Bleh, of course that old coot beats me for like a couple thousand years! BUT I can feel different kinds of magic and their quantity… and that’s something that Daddy-O simply can’t do”
>”Well Eris, you had my curiosity before, but now…” Cadence crossed her front legs, leaned a bit forward and gave Eris a little smirk “You have my attention…”

>>29716354
>And yours too… thinking about it… she said something similar when she saw those hypnotized prisoners back at the prison. More importantly, she said that Discord doesn’t have that skill… which made you even more curious
“I… I have to admit it Eris… I would like to know more about that talent of yours. I mean, for starters… that’s super cool, and secondly… I was under the impression that you and Discord had pretty much the same skill set… sans the experience, of course.”
>”Well you thought wrong, anyways… eeehhh… I suppose that I could explain ya how my little magic detector works, but hmmmm… lemme think a bit how to say it” Eris scratched her chin, looking away from you and Cadence and thinking hard on her next words
>When she finally thought of something, Eris gasped and with an excited ”AHA!” making a candle to appear over her head “Alright-y, so hear me out on this, okay?” Eris grabbed the light bulb and waved it in front of you and Cadence “So imagine that a normal and lame pony is like this itty bitty candle… they all have magic and they can make it useful for some veeeeery small stuff because their magic isn’t really that big or bright, but then…”
>Eris traced a circle with her paw, replacing the candle with a light bulb and a the pony plushy for one that resembled Shining Armor… dude… that plushy was so detailed… that it gave you Goosebumps for some reason
>But just as you were creeped out by the doll, Cadence was equally as enchanted ”D’awwww! That’s my Shiny! Can I have a plushy like that one?”
>…Really?
>”Yeah, why not…” Eris shrugged and with another circular motion of her paw, a couple of Shining Armor and Cadence plushies poofed into existence “When your baby is born, I’ll make one of her so the family can be complete”
>Cadence gave Eris a big, warm smile as she hugged both plushies ”D’awww! I’m sure she’ll love it!”

>>29716357
>Eris giggled and rolled her eyes “Anyways, as I was sayin’… after the normal ponies, we have dudes like your cutie husband…”
>”Cutie?” Cadence asked with a small hint of smugness in her voice
>”Well…” Eris raised an eyebrow and gave Cadence a sultry smile “Are you gonna say that the dude isn’t a total cutie? Because y’know that would be a lie… with that said” Eris shrugged “Don’t worry! I won’t try anything on him! I mean, he’s already taken by somepony who I’m actually cool with, and besides… he’s really not my type…”
>”Lemme guess…” Cadence sighed “He went full dork on you, right?”
>”And stubborn… but yeah, you’re right…” Eris made a small scowl as she rolled her eyes “And don’t take this the wrong way, buuuuut… his guards aren’t exactly what I’d call “prime material” Like seriously… those guys really need lessons on “how be a stallion” or some stuff like that”
>”Oh dear…” Cadence gasped in shock, her pupils shrank and some cold wet ran across her forehead “Please, please, PLEASE! Don’t tell me that my Shinny still wants to do that “battle of the bands” thingy”
>”Yup…” Eris calmly nodded “And I met a couple of yer guards who are sooooo into that kind of stuff”
“Wait… so you also think that little concert is the worst idea in the history of the Guard? I have to admit Cadence… I didn’t see that one coming… and I’m pretty good at deducing what will come next”
>”Anon…” Cadence gave you a stern look “I love my Shiny with all my heart, he’s the best husband I could’ve ever asked for and every day with him its a dream come true… with that said…” she then lowered her head and whispered in an almost defeated tone “I have to admit that I kinda… sort of… asked the current general of the Royal and Night Guard to do a “surprise” evaluation on the Crystal Empire’s guard…”
“Oooooh! So you were the one who asked Moonlight to come here and literally burn down the hopes and dreams of the guards to have that first battle of the bands”

>>29716510
>Cadence shushed you ”D-Don’t say it like that! But yes… that was me… and General Moonlight… mostly General Moonlight…but you have to understand that we did it because it was… wait…” Cadence suddenly gave you a nervous look “Anon… did my Shiny… ask you to play a game called Ogres and Oubliettes with him and his friends?”
>You know… there are times when you actually regret some of the decisions that you made in the past, some times where you want to bash your head in for your lack of perspective and wisdom… but this sure as heck wasn’t one of those times
“Yuuup! And I said no… I don’t want to sound rude, especially because Shining Armor is a total bro, but c’mon! That game sounds like a waste of time, and more importantly… Cherrywood would rip me apart if she knew that I played such insult towards the studies of the paranormal”
>Cadence let out a sigh in relief… a really big sigh… like if she had just escaped from a close encounter with death or something like that “Good… Good… you did the right choice Anon… As I said, I love Shinny with all my heart, but there is some… eh… stuff about him that it’s better to not let it stick to you”
“Okay, but… can we please go back to Eris’ explanation? It was getting to the good part… and I won’t be able to sleep if she doesn’t finish it”
>”Sure” Cadence nodded, looking relieved and looked at Eris “Whenever you’re ready, teacher Eris”
>But Eris was… distracted… to put it mildly ”Wha-? Oh yeah! The lesson! Right, right! Where was I… mmm… oh, that’s right! Ahem!” She cleared her throat and then she made the little Shining Armor plushy to hover in front of you “You see this guy? You see how he’s a brave knight and all that?”
>”Yeah… just like his name says, he’s truly a knight in shining armor” Cadence replied with a dreamy voice

>>29716531
>>29716531
>”Well…Don’t take this the wrong way, but he’s just above average when it comes to magic… it’s pretty hard to find somepony like him, but even then…” Eris shrugged “He’s more like a light bulb… brighter and more durable than a candle… but still not that powerful…”
>”Well… he cast shields that can cover entire cities, you know? And he can keep those shields for days” That seemed to irk Cadence… if just a little bit
>”Yeah, I’m sure that he has his moments, but we’re talking about raw magic here… and while he’s much better than your run-of-the-mill pony… he pales in comparison to our next guys…” Eris traced a circle with her paw, making plushies of Starlight Glimmer, Moon Dancer and you to appear… wait, what?
“E-Eris, why did you-“
>”Ah-Ah-Ah! Remember the first rule, dork. Never interrupt a lady when she’s speaking…”
“But-“
>”Eris is right Anon…” Oh c’mon! Why was Cadence giving you that stern look?! “It is very rude to interrupt a lady. Only jerks do that, and I’m sure that you don’t want to become one…”
“But, but! egh…. Fiiiiine!”
>You sat on the ground and crossed your front legs, huffing in annoyance.
>”I think that I REALLY like this princess” Eris giggled and gave you a mocking grin before resuming her explanation “Anyways, even when I make fun of my little dork, I have to give him something… he’s not a normal pony, and not because he’s actually kinda weird…” HEY! “But because ponies like him, the nerdy tutor and Motley…”
>”Motley?” Cadence asked with confusion
“She means Starlight Glimmer. Motley is the nickname that Eris gave her”
>”Oh yeah…” Cadence placed her hoof on her forehead and gently shook her head “I forgot that we’re dealing with her too… great”
>”Yup!” Eris nodded “And ponies like the ones in this new set of adorable plushies are actually extremely hard to come by, and the reason is ‘cause these three nerds are on a league of their own”

>>29716566
>You narrowed your eyes at Eris and growled
“Eris, I swear… if this is another set up for one of your jokes”
>But this time Eris simply shook her head ”I wish, but nope. Because you see my dear little brother… if normal ponies are like candles…” A plushy of a random pony appeared with a candle on top of it “And uncommon ponies like Cadence’s cutie husband are like light bulbs…” This time the Shining Armor’s plushy appeared, also with a light bulb shining on top of him “Then you, Motley and that other nerd would be more like this…”
>Suddenly, a blinding white light appeared, making you and Cadence to immediately cover your eyes
“Argh! What the hay, Eris! That’s not cool, mate!”
>”Exactly…” When the light died, you and Cadence rubbed your eyes “You guys have so much magic that it’s not even funny… of course” Eris chuckled “There are even more powerful ponies… namely my new favorite pink Princess, Twilight Sparkle… ewww, and the two crazy laser ponies, and even above them...it’s where my old man and I are…”
>That was a fine explanation and all but… it really had some glaring holes in it. And you sure as heck weren’t going to be left without an explanation for them.
“I don’t get it… As Cadence said, Shining Armor can cast shields the size of a city, while I can barely cast one that is enough for five foals. Don’t get me wrong Eris, it’s not that I don’t believe you, it’s just that I have to ask that If I really had so much magic in me, why I can’t do something as crazy like that?
>”Well…” Cadence spoke up, looking at Eris with a smile “As your big sis said, she can only sense the amount of magic that a pony has, not the experience or skill that he or she might have with it… but correct me if I’m wrong, you also said that you can feel different kinds of magic, right?”

>>29716575
>”Ding, ding, ding!” For a brief second, a billboard appeared above Cadence, displaying the words “You are the winner!” before poofing out of existence as soon as it came to be “That’s why I told ya to not be worried about our buggy friends. If there’s even one around here, then you can bet your pretty tiara that I’m gonna be able to sense it”
>”Shut Up! I thought that nopony liked my tiaras!” Cadence looked up and tapped her tiara with her hoof “It’s nice to see that at least somepony here has some taste for mane fashion”
>”You kidding?!” Eris happily hovered around Cadence “I was thinking on tryin’ your style like, right now!”
>Cadence rubbed her chin for a moment before speaking with an excited voice ”A silver tiara would look soooo good with your mane!”
>”Oh, sister!” Eris waved her paw “We just gotta share fashion tips!”
>You know… as lame as you found all of this girly talk… it was nice to see that Eris and Cadence were really getting along… which made you feel a bit sad that Cadence had to return to the original, albeit much more important topic
>”So…” Cadence let out a heavy sigh “Should I be afraid that one of those disgusting changelings has infiltrated the Crystal Empire?”
>”Hmmm? Is it me or do you have a... how do I put it? Ah, yes!” Eris gave Cadence a little smirk “An absolute hatred towards our little friends the changelings?”
>”Their Queen foalnapped me, locked me inside a cave, and then tried to take over Equestria with the love that she stole from my husband… and OH YEAH! HOW COULD I EVER FORGET” Cadence raised her tone… sheesh… you really hope that Shining Armor wasn’t so stupid as to make her angry “She also tried to marry Shiny while she was disguised as me! I have more than enough reasons to not like those insects!”

>>29716589
>”Okay…” Eris started writing on a small notepad “So when I see that Queen Chrysalis, I’m not only gonna turn her into a dancing cactus, I’m also gonna make sure that she can’t eat anything other than mud, is that good for you or do you wanna add something else to my list of “horrible things that I’ll do to Queen Bug”?”
>You thought that Cadence would explode at Eris for poking fun at such sensitive matter for her, but instead, Cadence just replied with a stoic voice ”… You better shave off those hay sticks that she calls mane too…”
>”Oh sister!” Eris giggled and dismissively waved her paw “That’s like, the first thing on the list along with replacing her fangs with super bitter sweets, but ah-ny-waaays!” Eris poofed out the little notepad and shrugged “You don’t have to worry about calling an exterminator, I can’t sense any bugs inside the castle”
>”Well…” Cadence rubbed her chin “What about the rest of the empire?”
>”Hmmm…” Eris scratched her chin “I dunno if my magic detector is that powerful… yet. But at least I can tell ya that I didn’t feel any bug magic on our way here
“Then they probably haven’t started to gather information about the Crystal Empire, yet.”
>”And what makes you believe that?” Cadence asked “Those bugs are sneaky, treacherous and feed on love and deception. They can disguise as anypony… maybe they aren’t inside the castle, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t have a changeling spy in the empire”
>You could clearly saw that Cadence was disturbed by the sole idea of a changeling gathering info on her and her family. That one of the ponies that she’s supposed to protect is working for a beast that wants to bring doom to everything that she knows and loves…
“Well…”

>>29716598
>She was right… just because Eris couldn’t sense the presence of a changeling inside the castle, didn’t mean that they weren’t among the crystal ponies… or close to the Empire… gosh, what an idiot you were from even suggesting something like that. You dropped your head in defeat and sighed
“I’m sorry Cadence… you’re right… you’re absolutely right, we can’t lower our defenses just yet”
>”No… I’m the one who should be sorry…” Cadence gently lifted your head with her hoof and gave you a warm smile “I didn’t mean to act like a jerk… it’s just that talking about the changelings just… irks me”
“Yeah… and I get ya… if Chrysalis had done something like that to me… then I guess that I would have a different attitude towards all this… but Cadence… now that I think about it… did the letter that my mom sent you mentioned Thorax?”
>”Yes, the letter also mentioned how you got that information…” Cadence slowly nodded “And I have to admit it Anon… I’m not very confident about that part. I mean, how can you be so sure that he’s not like the others? How can you trust the word of ANOTHER changeling? How can you be so sure that he didn’t lie to you?”
“That’s easy to answer actually…”
>You looked at Cadence right into the eye and gave her a smile as warm like the ones your mothers have
“Scrappy is my friend, and I know that you doubt his words because of what he is… but I won’t. You may not believe me Cadence, but Scrappy is much braver than what he realizes. He may love that beast of Chrysalis but at the same time he’s doing his very best to find his place in this world, in his own simplistic way… Scrappy is trying his best to discover the meaning of friendship and harmony, so with that in mind…”

>>29716603
>You took a deep breath, never stopping to look at Cadence in the eyes and holding that smile
“I want to give a chance to Thorax too. He’s looking for someone to laugh with, he’s looking for someone to share stories with… Thorax is looking for a friend and the changelings wants to destroy him for that. Cadence, I understand why you don’t like the idea of befriending someone who harmed you, but my moms taught me that it’s our work as royalty to shine as bright as the sun by bringing our warm friendship to those who seek it, and to be like the stars in the night sky by guiding those who seek the path of harmony…”
>”I see…” Cadence sighed and stayed silent for a moment. Then, she giggled and gently caressed your mane “My aunties might not be here right now but… you surely make it feel like that wasn’t the case. I’m still not sure if this plan will work… but you have my trust”
“Thank you Cadence… thank you very much…”
>”No problem…” Cadence looked down at you, some worry still was left in her “But I still have to ask what your plan is going to be? That Thorax guy won’t just come out from wherever he’s hiding, he’s doing that for a reason, you know?”
>Before you could speak up, Eris joined into the conversation, pointing proudly to herself ”You don’t have to worry about that part, because the little dork has me…All I gotta do is to trace a circle with my little paw and PRESTO! Bug’s Hideout discovered!”
>Cadence rubbed her chin for a second before shrugging “Okay, chaos magic and all that, right? That takes away one problem, but what about the love that Anon has? If I could sense it from a veeery big distance, then I’m sure that Thorax will be able to feel it too”
>You couldn’t help but to chuckle and give Cadence a little smirk as you smugly said
“That’s the plan…”
>To which she replied with a shocked “WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY?!”
>This time you just laughed a little, you knew that it was rude but… meh…

>>29716613
“Nah! Just think about it, Cadence. If the search party was made up of only guys from the Crystal Empire’s guard, what would Thorax sense?”
>Cadence gave you a stoic gaze ”Fear, doubt and if Shiny goes with them… a desire to crush bugs with his hooves”
“Exactly! And as I was telling the exotic beauty that is hovering above you, our mission this time is to make contact with Thorax and convince him that we’re not here to destroy the poor guy. If the only feelings that come out from the guys who will be looking for him are hate and disdain, what do you think that Thorax will think?”
>”That… ugh…” Cadence rolled her eyes and huffed “That the changelings have found him… not the ponies that he ALLEGEDLY wants to make friends with”
“Yup! That’s why I have to go there, if Thorax feels someone who actually wants to give him a friendly hoof… then I’m sure that we won’t have any trouble in finding him.”
>Cadence sighed and gently shook her head ”I don’t know… you are basically placing yourself as live bait… that doesn’t sounds like a plan that the Royal Guard would come up with, but rather-“
>”Ze secret service?” The three of you turn to the source of the familiar voice that interrupted Cadence… and there she was, wearing a thick vest with tons of daggers strapped onto it and with her emotionless expression that you grew so used to, Aegia stood ready for anything.
>”I know who you are, you’re Anon’s bodyguard” Cadence narrowed her eyes at Aegia “But you realize that entering uninvited to somepony else’s room is not exactly what anypony would call polite?”
>Aegia gave Cadence a respectful bow before she spoke up with a calm, yet stoic tone “Excusez moi, Princess. Ze door was unlocked and I made myself in. It won’t happen again.”
>”Actually, Candy-kisses…” Hah! You were wondering when Shining Armor was gonna show up “It’s kinda my fault. This mad mare just rushed up before I could do anything… sorry for getting you and our baby stressed”

>>29716620
>”Awww, Shiny! You don’t have to worry at all! In fact…” Cadence happily glanced at you and Eris before looking back at Shining Armor with loving eyes “I had a wonderful time with Anon and my new friend, Eris!”
>”Heh… happy to hear that… still” Shining Armor rubbed the back of his neck “Can I do anything to atone for my fault, my princess?”
>”Well… I think there’s something that you can do” Cadence gently tapped her chin, and then she gave Shining Armor a little smile “And that something will be a kiss”
>”Then say no more my princess…” With a suave face, Shining Armor walked towards Cadence and planted a tender kiss on her lips…
>What a nice little moment… a bit cheesy… but heartwarming nonetheless. Even Eris was a little enchanted by it.
> But not Aegia, that mare sure as hay doesn’t care about romance… ”You will have to pardon moi for interrupting such a tender moment. But we have a mission to fulfill and time is not on our side”
>And she was partially right, you don’t know how close the changelings are to find Thorax or if they have found him yet, still…
“Gosh Aegia… just… give them a moment will ya?”
>”I know zat I’m being rude, Mon Petit…” Aegia walks towards you and pats your mane “And I apologize for zat. But we have to go now. And I’m sure zat Captain Armor agrees wiz me…”
>Shining Armor rolled his eyes and growled “Yeah, Yeah…” he then looked back at Cadence with a smile on his face “Alright Candy-kisses, I’m gonna go and bring that bug back to the castle so we can interrogate him. You stay here with Anon and-“
>”Ze young prince is coming wiz us.” Aegia quickly said
>Shining Armor glared back at Aegia ”Excuse me? Did I hear right?” He took a few steps towards her “Do you really plan on bringing a colt to a dangerous mission?!” Shining Armor let out a sarcastic chuckle and rolled his eyes “I knew that the secret service’s ponies were awful, but this? This takes the cake”

>>29716632
>Despite Shining’s harsh words, Aegia remained with her stoic expression, imiting herself to just raise an eyebrow “He may be a colt, but ze prince is ze only one wiz ze right skill set for zis mission.
>”Oh yeah?” Shining Armor narrowed his eyes at Aegia “How so?”
>Aegia placed her hoof on her forehead and gently shook her head ”We have to talk to ze changeling, Captain Armor, not capture him. You and I were boz trained in combat and ponies protection, not negotiation. Princess Luna and Celestia aren’t here, Princess Cadence isn’t in conditions to do zis kind of travel. But ze young prince is a natural at negotiations and talks. He fits ze job better zan any of us. Besides…”
“Yeah, and as I just told Cadence: We can’t go in with a bunch of guys who really, REALLY want to get rid of every changeling in existence, that will scare Thorax away and that’s the last thing we want!”
>For a brief moment, you could see a smirk on Aegia’s face “It would be wise to not underestimate zis colt, Captain Armor. He may be young but I’m sure zat he could easily give any of your guards a run for zeir bits”
>You looked up to Aegia and with a bright smile said
“Thanks Aegia!”
>”I just stated ze truz, Mon Petit” Aegia replied with a gentle pat on your mane
>Shining Armor opened his mouth to protest, but this time, Cadence was the one to interrupt him “Shiny, my love… I know that you’re concerned about Anon’s safety… I am too, but… do you really think that my aunties would have sent him here if they didn’t trust that he could pull this off?”

>>29716640
>”I…” Shining Armor looked at Cadence… but his wife’s kind eyes were more than enough to make him give up on any further attempt to stop your involvement with this “Okay… Okay… but what about you?”
>”Zat is easy Captain…” Aegia calmly looked at Eris with a subtle smile on her face “Mademoiselle Eris will make sure zat nozing happens to ze Princess. She will teleport us to where ze changeling is, and after zat she will return to ze castle to keep your wife safe…”
>”I mean, sure… I can do that” Eris shrugged “But how am I going to know when I’m supposed to bring you back in?”
>”Wiz zis…” From her vest, Aegia produced a small stone… that was incredibly similar to the one on your necklace “When we have completed our mission. Zis stone will glow, zat’s ze moment when you shall teleport us back here”
“Alrighty! We have a plan! Let’s do this! Let’s bring some friendship to that Thorax!”

Hope that you guys liked this update and you liked Cadence and Eris' new found friendship. I will update the pastebin later today... when my head stops aching

Eris and Cadence's super girly hour was actually really, really cute

I liked Cadence admiting that her beloved husband is not exactly the most perfect pone that has ever lived but she still is completely head over heels for him. That was nice and realistic in a good way

>"Hrnnn....fine" Discord shows you his talons as he holds up his paw again "I swear"
"Tail fur..."
>"Aren't you observant...fine" Discord shows you his tail as he once again gives you his word.
"And how about that third paw you got hiding behind your back? Also your horns. I see some ends of your antlers crossed"
>Discord just stares at you as he snaps his talons. Turning himself into a simple floating cube. one end comes out as a goopy hand and raises itself. "I swear. is this fine?"
>You look around the cube. It seemed fine. You don't know why you kept this up yourself. It was obvious he could probably find another reason to say something. But you had a feeling he wouldn't, he was just fucking with you, and for some reason you just obliged him.
"Yeah"
>"Good" Discord flashes as he returns to his original form. "Now go on and tell me already. whatever it is, it simply MUST be juicy!"
>...Here we go. Once you tell him. There's no going back.
>And so you do. You tell him everything that happened in the meeting in Canterlot. You then tell him how you felt and how you didn't wantr to lose Chrysalis as a friend.
>Discord doesn't say a word at all as he listens. He snaps his talons instead. Returning everything to normal and plopping you back on your bed.
"So....what do you think?

There is a God and his name is Erf.

>>29719621
Hmm, wonder if Discord is going to be sincere with this.

>>29719621
>He stays silent for a moment longer as he gives you a stoic stare, stroking his beard as he pondered
>"Anon, did it ever occur to you that maybe you made your life a tad more busy then it should be?"
>What kind of answer was that?
"what do you mean?"
>"I mean sonny boy, that I only intended for you to make friends with ponies and cause a bit of mischief here and there. Not throw your life into total turmoil because you decided to make friends with a villain."
>...oh
"Well, what do you want?we became friends, that's all there is to it. Do you even remember how it started? You're the one who locked her up in here in the first place"
>What was he even talking about? Even if thats what he intended. Things still went awry and changed. If he didn't want this. He shouldn't have locked her up in the house.
>"Of course I do. But aside from what I may have said. I only intended her to stay for just a little while for fun. The only reason I've kept her around is because of you Anon. Sure, she's fun to toy with. But she's not the type of company I like to keep. Never been a fan of the royal snooty sort...unless it's me of course"
>So that's it? He didn't get rid of her because of you? So he was just being your friend.
"So you won't help me then?"
>Discord smirked at you, and shook his head "Don't be so hasty Anon. On one paw, I don't care to stay as a host to our ungrateful guests. But on these talons I see a phenomenal chance to cause some real chaos. Of course, it depends. What exactly do you need me to do?"
>....Discord..
>You got off from your bed and hugged him tightly.
"Thanks for being a bro Discord, Thank you so damn much!"

>>29719714
>Discord slowly pulls you away with a serious look on his face "Don't thank me yet Anon" The entire room started to turn darker as his face became scarier "for if this causes any harm to Fluttershy, you shall suffer one thousand years of spankings in the span of five hours. Do you understand?"
>Uhhhh, holy fuck. You gulped at that, even shook. That was fucking scary to even hear much less feel with the air turning cold as it turned darker. You slowly nodded. Still feeling confident despite the sudden worry.
>Then everything turns normal as Discord grins and clasps his paw with his talons. "Good, now what do you need me to do Anon?"
>...scary
"I'm not exactly sure. We can't keep the princesses away forever though. Then again, they expect your help with this when the time comes so...."
>"Make up excuses?"
"Make up excuses...but we need something else. Celestia can be pretty crafty. And Twilight has a knack of noticing when things are off. Even if it clobbers the hell out of her, like when she couldn't believe in Pinkie's Pinkie sense"

>>29717029
i demand more than this, don't fucking tease me

>>29719795
>"Hrnnn" Discord pondered "This is quite the conundrum. Because if I know Celestia, she might get desperate enough to tell Fluttershy what's going on. And then?" Discord shrugs "It'd be over. I'm in no way willing to do anything to Fluttershy if it escalates to more than turning her away."
>At least he was being honest.
"Excuses is all I have right now anyway. I don't want to hurt anypony. But I also don't want Chrysalis to find out. And apparently Celestia wants to help with getting something set up for me and Chrysalis to be away while she tries to reform the changelings. So I guess you can prevent that from happening too, right?"
>"I can, but as I said. There's a limit. We need something permanent." Discord produces a long beanbag chair under himself and plants himself on it with his back. "But that might be impossible. Ponies are persistent Anon , ESPECIALLY Twilight. Eventually they'd catch on to the fact we're trying to keep them out and then Celestia would get all noble on us and complain about the fact we're preventing her from doing something "Just". "
"..I know, they all would. The only thing I have as back up is you making absolutely sure Chrysalis wouldn't be banished."
>"Easy, but if she knows you're involved at all. You could kiss that friendship goodbye. I'd have no idea how you'd be able to make up for the fact that suddenly her entire hive would be against her. Then again, would it really be that bad Anon? Need I remind you that she wants to conquer all of Equestria?"
"...And you only care about that because it also involves Fluttershy, right?"

>>29719868
>"Yes...BUT! It involves you too. Anon, you're startlingly way too involved with your friendship with Chrysalis. Take a lesson from your Daddy Discord. I made the mistake of making friends with an evil villain once, and that mistake nearly cost me everything. Chryssy could in fact just be using you to get what she wants. And if she isn't, all she wants from you would be your obedience as she takes over all pony kind. Is it really worth risking so much just for her?"
>Was it?
>"Need I remind you of your other friends? Especially me. How am I supposed to explain to Fluttershy that you actually want to protect the changeling queen? How can I protect you when you are seen as a monster? What about dear Diamond Tiara's heart when she finds out you are as much as Chrssy's prince as you are hers? Not to sound like Twilight Anon, but..." His head and voice changes to Twilight temporarily "But you might be making a mistake, one that puts your entire life at risk, is it really worth it?"
>And the worst part was, he was right. Things would come crumbling down on you...wouldn't it?
>No matter what you do. You'd be risking something...
>You put your hoof to your face and start rubbing up and down until you came to a final conclusion. But it was hard. No matter what you could think of, it'd just end up pissing off someone.
"....Stalling for time it is. Even if I can't reform Chrysalis, maybe she can trust me enough that when Celestia does pull off her plan. I won't actually lose her as a friend. Maybe even, I dunno. Make up a situation where she "tricks me" into telling her whats happening while we're out. It'd give Celestia some time to try, and Chrysalis might not just break her friendship with me when I tell her....maybe"

>>29719897
>Discord shakes his head at you. He was looking at you like you were losing your mind. It saddened him. "That won't work.You can certainly try, but it won't work. I may not have a full handle on friendship yet. But I certainly know how I'd feel if that happened. If you go through with that plan. You'd end up making everypony angry. Unless of course Celestia somehow managed to reform the changelings in like five minutes, in which you're back to an angry queen. But.." Discord lets out a soft chuckle "Good luck with that. I'd actually give up my powers for a whole day just to have a front row seat of seeing Celestia trying to reform them because nothing she could do would get them to reform in that amount of time. Chryssy suddenly showing up would be gold. Imagine it, a battle of epic proportions that wouldn't work out due to my barrier. Turning everypony into living pinballs. Hilarious really"
>Discord. You could tell. Was trying to deter you while seeming in with it. It was his own way to protect you. You could tell, you've lived long enough with him to tell when he's thinking something different from how he's acting.
>He probably crossed something while he was in cube form. You were sure of it.
>You sighed
"You're not actually going to help me, are you?"
>Discord's smirk left him as he slowly rested on his back and looked up at the ceiling as it turned into a sea of stars. "Yes and No. No, because it's still my final decision and I'm worried about you. I have noticed that you care about her because you're able to connect to her on a humanly level. If she wasn't such a hated scourge I'd completely reconsider..."
>Dammit....Even Discord was siding with Celestia. Christ, you couldn't even challenge that. Even Chrysalis has said just how evil she was and could be.
"..then why the yes?"

>>29719942
>"The yes is because I'd love to see all the princesses faces when I keep denying them their request to enter my home. If they don't know that I do know, then I can get away with turning them away a few times. Most likely with side splitting results. But eventually they'll catch on, and well..you know the rest"
>So that was it then.
>You started to tear up again. Your ears drooped. You actually climbed and wobbled up onto Discord's beanbag chair and starting cuddling your face onto his side as you whimpered.
"...I'm a monster...Discord, I really...r-really fucked up."
>Discord at first. tenses up. But he gently takes you into his paw and talons and holds you to his chest as he gently strokes your mane. He could feel you shaking from your utter depression. "I really am sorry Anon. Sometimes fate is very cruel.But is it really so bad? Is the guilt really that soul crushing?"
"...I just. It's not like I don't like everypony else thats my friends Discord. I just...it's tough. if it was back on earth, I probably wouldn't care, things like this happen all the time on earth...Relatively...but. Here? This entire world runs on friendship. And m-maybe it was a mistake being Chrysalis's friend. But sometimes Discord, a lot of the times. I get tired of being a kid. Sometimes I just want to talk to a friend I can relate to."
>"Can't you relate with Twilight Two? What's her name? hmmm.."
>He meant Starlight...
>Starlight. That's right..she knew your secret.
>She knew your secret same as Chrysalis more or less.
>But...no
>Dammit, you really could have had a near similar friendship with Starlight that you could have with Chrysalis. Could you?
>Even then, the painful part is the fact you were Chrysalis's only real friend. She liked you. And you liked her. And the guilt of crushing all that over official royal business was hurting you really bad.

>>29720065
"...Yeah but. Chrysalis is still a good friend. even if she is evil. Maybe you're right. Maybe it would have been better if I didn't befriend her...but it's too late now. And really? Wouldn't you feel terrible if you lost me and Fluttershy? Or really...just Fluttershy"
>You hear Discord sigh from that "As if you need to ask that question...Still, all I can do for you is stall Celestia and the other princesses for awhile and try to make absolutly sure she stays locked up in the basement. What Chryssy herself decides to do thereafter is entirely up to her. For all we both know, she could end up like in one of those horror books. A creature stuck in a basement who goes mad. That's all I can do for you Anon.."
>He just continues to hold on to you and stroke your mane. If you looked at his face, you'd see that he looked utterly crushed about it.
"...it's ok. I'll just have to try to do my best...Look, when we end up doing those classes. Try not to overdo it on her. Alright?"
>"I suppose I could try. Speaking of which Anon, I actually came looking for you to see if you'd accompany me on checking out the classroom today? To see if it was on the up and up"
>...you were way too depressed to do that
"Discord...I don't think I'm up for it"
>"Come on Anon" Discord enthusiasm slowly increases as he holds you up like a cat and smiles at you "We'll be going tomorrow anyway. We really should see if this "Muffin Top" is worthy to teach the great spirit of chaos and his son of mischief making. It'll get your mind off of things."
"Discord..."
>You sigh at him
"I really don't think so..."

>>29720114
>"Anon, I'm going to do my best for you here. If there was less riding on this then I'd turn Celestia to stone until she agreed to leave it alone or something like that. Well, maybe not to stone. Perhaps just trap her on a luxury cruise until she gave in. Those massages are nothing to sniff at. But I know Fluttershy is tied into this so this is the best I can do. So, come on. Let's go, check things out, and try to get your mind off this ridiculous and depressive slump"
>You look at him with big sad eyes. At least he was trying.
"Do you really mean that? That you're doing you're best?"
>He nods "Of course I am. You know as well as I do that having any kind of chance to mess with royalty is not something I'd just give up."
>You believed that
>You believed him
>It just meant you'd have to think of something else if you could...
>For now, Discord is probably right. chrysalis probably felt the movie was what got you down. But if you stayed depressed around her at all times. She might eventually catch on...and then who knows what might happen.
>Fine...You'd do it.
"Alright...let's go"
>Discord doesn't jump up in happiness or say anything to exclaim his excitement. Her just gently places his paw on your head and gives you a warming smile "Don't worry to much Anon. There's always a chance things might just work out. I can't guarantee is of course. But I'll keep everything I have crossed, and hope for the best for you"
.You give him another hug
"Thanks Discord....Thanks for understanding"
>And with that, and with a pat on your head. You both vanished from the room.

>>29720144
Discord acting like a dad towards Anon is always really cute and heartwarming.

Morning bump

What are the downsides of trying to get Fluttershy to accept Chrysalis?

>>29719379
We trust in you mang

>>29720753
Chrissy is still a bitch and could easily hurt or manipulate her.

>>29720144
daww
a shame the princesses had to come and fuck everything up
guess they lost a lot of sympathy and kindness towards him when they found out what he really was before discord brought him there

>>29702792
I was told I have to do an update this year.

>You get up.

There; see y'all next year.

>>29722187
Better than what I've posted in the last 72 hours

>>29716650
>When a beaner makes a better cadence and ass armor than the show writters themselves

>Anon actually feeling defeated
Jeez this is sad, has it ever happened before?

>A changeling
>A very bizarre, weird and curious-looking creature
>To anyone who has seen one on the show, they couldn’t look menacing
>But
>There’s a difference between a nice looking colorful children cartoon character on the screen and having a being who’s supposed to be a drain from your most elemental source of life there before your eyes
>How does it look?
>Well, it’s like a small horse without a coat and with a cold bright skin cold as steel, with a green cocoon in its back and two mirror reflective wings. Weirdly enough these wings aren’t transparent like in the show, but are mostly silver with veins like house flies. The head has two big blue deep and empty voids for eyes, as if the creature doesn’t have any soul and only possess of one aim to steal all the love you have.
>Love
>Even the most tough creature in this world has even a little
>What is it like being out of it, absent of love itself?
>Uncanny

>>29724467

>Your pony instincts kicks extremely hard to run out of its presence
>But your determination screams that you have to resist
>Fear is not an option
>You would prefer to perish like a warrior than live like a wimp
>You resist your urge to run and instead you get up on two legs and then you twist, falling on your back to smash the damn bug. Weirdly enough he doesn’t fight you.
>He looks weak, starving
>He faints
“Discord, can you start telling me what’s happening?”
>He’s in a beach bench eating popcorn “Bravo Pepe, you’ve done a good job. I was expecting nothing but you running in circles and screaming like a chicken”
>You feel proud that somehow Discord thinks positively of you but still, you want some answers
“Thanks Discord, but again, why do you have a dying changeling in your basement?”

>>29724479

>”Because if he was fed, he would be a danger to you. It would be interesting to see you in a real combat situation, but… another dead partner in my conscience would a heavy burden on me”
“Okay, let me reformulate my question, why do you have a changeling in your basement?”
>”To get information from him, you surely know that these bugs are plotting something big, and I think that our new friend could help us to our purpose seeing success”
“I’m gonna guess that you didn’t say a word to SMILE about your personal quest”
>”Why would you doubt I didn’t, Pepe? In fact, they gave me this bug to make him talk, but the stubborn creature keeps babbling on about how he doesn’t betray his queen and such nonsense. I’m sure you can share a bit of your love with him and make him speak a little more”
>You have some pity for the wretched meek, if a bit scary, creature
>Sure you have some fear from the horror of having your love ripped from your still warm heart

>>29724482

>But he didn’t choose to be a predator
>And there he is laying on the cold hard floor with the mouth ajar trailing a thin stream of saliva with the tongue rolling out and the eyes half-closed, his breathing is a forced and shallow wheeze
>You approach the creature
“Hey mate, what’s the buzz?”
>The changeling prepares to talk and with much strain demands “You… are partner of that… idiot?”
“Yes I am, but I also want to be your friend”
>”You can’t *cof*cof* fool me, you want to destroy my queen!”
“Maybe, but you are dying, aren’t you?”
>”Leave me *cof*cof* alone”
“You know, I can respect a determined warrior, but I feel you’re not fighting your own battle”
>”It’s my battle. I’m the hive and the hive is me”
>In middle of this conversation something bothers you, the pill is wearing off. You hope that this works like a benefit to you and not against your plan
”You’re kinda cute, you know that?”

Youvare improving, good work

Boop

Sorry just got off of work from that last time last night. Only read a few Erf green on the shittier. You know the saying, boss makes a dollar I make a dime and that's why I shit on company time.

Overall holy shit my heart aches for him. Honestly I'd play my part then Russian roulette afterwards.

>>29725536
Also shitter instead of shittier.

Overall the stakes are too high for someone that can't change their ways. She's in the minority and nobody will stand behind you.

>>29725551
Both are fucked beyond belief

>>29725551
>Overall the stakes are too high for someone that can't change their ways
Gave her all of a week to change something that's been an integral part of her life for possibly centuries.

>>29720144
>When you both reappeared. You were in some sort of empty classroom.
>The only thing around was a desk, a blackboard, a front door with a window on each side beside it. And two doors near both ends of the blackboard. On the left is a normal looking door. And while the right is also the same. You and Discord can smell something good and buttery on the other side of it.
>Above the blackboard is a wide picture frame. Holding a picture of what seems like a fishing dock. There's a few ponies in the picture as well. On the left side were two swanky looking pegasi males. Each grinning while they wore some nifty red vests. They both had well groomed black manes and peach fur. They had their eyes closed so you couldn't tell their eye color. But they were definitely twins. They stood beside a much older, kind of portly pegasus pony wearing red glasses and sporting a tied top mane. The mane color was both a darker brown and a greyish white. Her eyes were emerald green but you couldn't get a glimpse of any of their cutie marks due to standing so close to one another. On the furthest right was a very young Earth mare with cute overalls and a backwards red cap. She was closing her eyes with a happy little grin and also featured a grey coat with a black mane. Next to her was a very fat yet young earth stallion in the same attire and same fur color but with a mopley brown mane. And finally was an equally fat old earth pony with a golden fishing rod beside him and a huge beard adorned his chin and a messy mane on his head. Also with the same attire as the two ponies on the right and sporting a gold tooth in his grin. They must have been a family.

>>29726077
>The desk had a few things on it. papers, pens, and a...wedding photo in black and white. If you were right, they must have been the two most middle ponies from the family picture. Except the fat guy with the golden rod was wearing a tux and had no beard. And the old pegasus pony was slim, her mane was beautiful and flowing, with some covering her right eye and just like the family picture. They looked very happy
>"Ohhhh, I could already tell this is going to be really boring. How am I supposed to work my magic when everything is so drab? I might have to offer my services as a masterful interior decorator to get this place looking a little more lively." Discord was lifting up the wedding photo and taking a look before putting it down. "I mean seriously, is this a classroom or a house sale we just so happened to miss. There's nothing here."
>You sighed, you were still thinking about Chrysalis. Even thinking some dangerous thoughts. some extreme thoughts to get your way. While battling yourself to not think them as they bordered on evil itself.
"I guess"
>"You guess? Come on Anon, don't be this way. Take it from me. If you stay in a slump you won't be able to think of anything that can help you.with your problem. And then that problem becomes my problem. And then it becomes annoying. And then I'll be in a slump because you're in a slump. And then who is supposed to bring the real fun and joy to Equestria? Pinkie Pie?! Pffft, nope. She's can't handle that pressure. She has no talent for it"
>But you just couldn't muster anything up.
>"Anon..." Discord sighed "If you can't do it for me, do it for Fluttershy. You don't want to break her heart do you? If you can't pull yourself out of this now, you won't be able to do it later."
"I know...Give me a second...please"
>You tried. You fucking tried. You sat there, pondering, if you could think of just one thing. It might lift your mood.

>>29726153
>But what? Discord could only stall the princesses and that wasn't good enough.
>But...wait. He mentioned Starlight.
>And although Starlight seemed against having Chrysalis around. Maybe if you discussed the situation with her. She could help you think of something. She was pretty smart after all, she did manage to take over an entire town and come up with some insanely ridiculous spells like cutie mark removal. Maybe through her, you could have some hope.
>But would she help you wondered. Maybe not, but it was an option. In fact, You'll have to see if she's still in the town tonight or if she went to the Crystal Empire already.
>You just had to hope
>And that hope was really little. You wre still having trouble smiling or being upbeat.
>And then you heard a soft gentle humming.
>The portly pegasus mare from the family picture came into the room from the door on the right, with mitted wings as they held a silver plate with six fresh baked muffins on top. She was humming a gentle song as she placed the plate onto her desk and whipped her wings to remove the mitts and have them fall to the right of the plate.
>She took a sniff and smiled at her work "How heavenly, I'm so glad the baking class let me use their ovens. A bunch of sweet kids don'tcha know." She said to herself with a giggle, her voice was a motherly yet Canadian like..or maybe something else? It sounded northern at least. But the most curious thing about her was her cutie mark. It was four playing cards. Diamond,Spade,Club, Heart.
>That must be Mrs.Muffin Top.
>When she looked up. She noticed you and Discord. And instead of being frightened. She just smiled at the both of you. "Oh, hello there. I don't mean to upset you two boys but class is tomorrow don'tcha know. Or did you have a few questions about it? Either way, I don't mind answering any questions you might have"

>>29726219
>Discord turned back in surprise. He wasn't expecting her to show up. But the way she acted so nonchalantly at his presence irked him. He gave her a slightly menacing glare as he coughed into his paw and stepped closer to her. "Excuse me, but you're attitude surprises me. Don't you realize who you're talking to?"
>She nodded with a pleasant smile "Mhmm, you're the spirit of chaos. Mr.Discord. A pleasure to meetcha don'tcha know. I've seen you in the papers and Princess Twilight has gone over a few things about you already. Even asked me to be careful but.." She tilted her head as she smiled "I happen to think parents are the most wonderful and most trustworthy type of ponies and griffons and anything else that knows the joys of children. So all I have to say is welcome to my class and would you like a muffin?" She slides the plate towards him "Their freeeeessshhh!" She exclaims in a sing songy way
>Discord just looks down at one, then at her, then at one again and stares. "I don't even know where this has been."
>"The oven" She smiles at him, and then finally, she notices you. Bent over and depressed. She immediately notices and comes out from behind the desk and walks over to you "Oh dear, you look so sad. What's the matter hun?" She already looked incredibly worried.
>You looked up at her, and that sweet face. Ogh, why did she have to look at you like that? She didn't know you.
>She didn't touch you. But instead planted her butt right in front of you and began to speak with you in a concerned tone. "What's wrong hun? What's got you so gloomy?"

>>29726243
>Discord crossed his arms. Feeling a strange sense of jealousy. He let out a "hmph" as he stared for a moment before speaking "My son is dealing with a very complex issue at the moment. Something that the likes of you has no way of fixing. In fact, if you want to see how it's really done. Why don't you step aside while I work my magic." Discord was feeling both protective and competitive about cheering you up. He's failed thus far. But he wasn't going to let his "Teacher" and "Judge" see that he was a bad father.
>But there was something about her. She seemed so sweet and caring. And that soft motherly touch. Just like with Fluttershy. It really got to you.
"I-I'm just worried about something..that's all"
>"Ohhh, well hun. Don't you worry. Momma Top is gonna fix that frown. How would you like to have a muffin? Or would you like two? You could have as many as you like don'tcha know. I don't mind, I only made them for practice anyway and they sure do smell good. Then we can talk about what's bothering you" She must have had one hell of an instinct because she instantly cared about how you were feeling just by looking at you.
>Discord scoffed, unaware he was being ignored "Bribery? hah! How elementary. How could you even hope to understand the complicated feelings he's feeling right now? Now step aside. And let me show you how it's really done."
"I can't talk about it. It's just something I need to personally deal with"
>"Oh, I've heard so much about you already don'tcha know. The heroic little colt. Dont'cha worry hun. If you don't want to talk about it you don't have to. But I don't want unhappy children in my classroom. So why don't you tell Momma Top what she has to do to get you up and running again? It can be anything. I'm even willing to bet two hundred bits to your happiness that I can get you to smile if you at least give me a hint." Her smile was sweet but....holy fuck did she just..?!

>>29726271
"U-uhh, a-are you serious about the bits? I mean, I don't need them but isn't that a lot?"
>"Hun, Me and my hubbie are pretty successful in our own right. I'm even willing to go double on the bet just because I'm feeling pretty confident that I can get that grin. Either way, you're gonna be pretty happy don'tcha know. So what do I have to do?" She looked pretty confident and yet still motherly about it.
>"Oh ho, I'm going to pull out a chair for this disaster" Discord literally makes one appear as he sits and watches "Maybe I'll buy the classroom from you afterwards and have my own class"
"Look, I don't think there's anything you can do ma'am. I shouldn't have even come here. I'm sorry."
>"Hmmm" She pondered for a moment as she examined your face "Trouble with a friend. He or she might be a trouble maker but you care enough to not want to do anything to hurt them. But you're afraid something might or is going to happen. Ohhh, and it looks pretty bad to with the way you're muzzle is turned. Am I somewhere in the park?"
>....da fuck? Who was this mare? She was mostly right. How did she?
"..How did you-"
>"Know? t's part of my old profession don'tcha know. And I was a master at it. Really good. but enough about me hun. Let's talk about you. What's the problem?"
>Maybe you could tell her a little bit. If only because you were interested in what the fuck she was doing to figure that much out.
"W-well. I'm good friends with somepony who not a lot of other ponies like. In fact, something is going to happen that's good for everypony except her thats going to make her hate me and be angry for a very very very long time. I want to stop it. But I know I'd lose so many other friends if I did. I just don't know what to do"

>>29726345
>"Hmmmm, now that's a toughie." She was paying close attention to your face. Was she, reading it somehow? "I might actually lose this one. I don't think I've ever seen such a complicated face on a colt before. This must be a pretty heavy secret dont'cha know. Well, Momma Top is going to take a crack at it anyway. I feel your friend doesn't fit in regular society. Given that your father is a spirit of mischief and chaos. I can take a guess that this isn't your garden variety friend. Maybe even somepony that's hated among others. But let me tell you something Anon, listen to ole Momma Top. Sometimes there are things we can't control. Now I'm not saying it should or shouldn't happen. But it being out of our control is something that does happen. But I'll tell you this hun. Friends who truly care about you last forever. And no matter what, if things were out of your control they will understand. And if they don't, they'll come to understand eventually. And then everything will be honky dory, If they can't understand that it wasn't your fault then they weren't a real good friend to begin with."
>You sigh, you felt she was off.
"It's more complicated than that. She has-"

>>29726444
>"A lot riding on what she does. I can tell, I know how it is hun. Doesn't look like what she does is something I'd call legal though. I won't judge though. I'm not here to judge sweetie. I'm here to help you. That's all I want to do. Now let's see. If your friend is a friend that only really likes you but doesn't like other ponies and vice versa. Then this might be something that's pretty big, I'm not surprised considering who you rub hoovsies with.But you look distraught, and as a mother of four it hurts to see such a young colt hurting so badly. Because it looks like you really don't have any kind of control over it whatsoever. Anon, what I can tell you is this. Don't do anything you might regret, and put trust in your friend. If you put trust in her, she'll always see you as her friend, even if it won't be for awhile after whatever happens happens. So what you have to do Anon. Is make her feel more than a friend. Treat her like a sister. And I'm sure things will work out in the end."
>Treat her like your sister?
>Just let it happen? And just hope?
>You already knew that...but
>Why is it when she tells it. It feels right? It was like she knew. Like she was some kind of fortune teller.
>But would Chrysalis really be your friend? No...Muffin Top can't possibly understand. She can't-
>When you look up at her. She looked meloncholic
>"I know I can't understand hun. I know it's tough. I know my answer might even be wrong. Oh sweetie, I wish I could give you a definitive answer. But even if I can't. I can tell you're a smart enough colt to figure something out. But you have to trust in your friendship too. If there's no trust and you just let yourself fall apart. then you'll definitely lose your friend"

>>29726465
>D-dammit. You've only known her for a few minutes and she was already close to something. Your mind was close to breaking. You didn't know if she was right or wrong. Even if you heard it before. The way she just was figuring things out. It made you doubt yourself and yet it made you believe that maybe Chrysalis WOULD forgive you in the end.
>You fell forward, you didn't even realize Muffin Top had caught you and held you close, hugging and comforting you like a mother would.
"She's already like family to m-m-meee. I don't...I d-don't want to lose her. S-she's practically my sister. I-I don't care if s-she's bad or hated. I d-don't want to lose any of my close friends. They are closer to me than anything I had in m-my old world, e-every single one..I don't want to lose one..not anypony...no matter w-what!"
>Muffin Top didn't understand what you meant by "old world". She just assumed you meant orphanage. But her heart was broken. She just rocked back and forth as she did her best. "Shhhhh...let it all out hun. I know it's hard. Oh sweetie..oh oh sweetie. Momma Top is so sorry, I wish I could do more for you" She started to tear up, and cry with you.
"D-don't cry"
>You look up at her, teary eyed, sniffing. You didn't mean to make her cry....it was your soft spot for the motherly or soft. You never wanted to hurt ponies like Fluttershy or her. They were too pure. Well, you didn't want to hurt anyone you liked. But ponies who were soft you felt bad about because they didn't have thick skin like tougher friends like Lyra and Bonbon would.
"L-look, I-I'm smiling. see?"
>You force a smile. You force a smile for a pony who was really trying to help. a pony you never met who felt like someone you knew for awhile.

>>29726502
>"Ohhh hun. You poor dear" She smirked at your smile, but still felt fairly awful "You're so cute. Now I know why your father chose you. You have such a big heart don'tcha know. I'm glad you'll be in my class tomorrow. But listen to me, don't ever smile if it's not a real smile. Ok? You have to be honest. We may have just met, but I always feel a connection with everypony that steps into my classroom." She then slowly turns to Discord "That includes you too Mr.Discord. I can see on your face that you're faking being a smuggy mcsmuggenstein don'tcha know. I know you really want to help your son. So listen closely, because this is your first lesson. Be there for your son. Help him. Even if you want to be somewhere else. Help him"
>Discord sat there. He still had that smug smile but his eyes were so watery that his eyes began to slowly melt."....Do you even understand what you're talking about?"
>"Not completely. I'm here to help, that's all I can do. Is try to lead families down the right path don'tcha know. As Anon's father, it's up to you to do your very best for him and help him. Not your best, but your very best. Even if it compromises your values." She said as she held you tightly and gently stroked her hoof along your back.
>Discord said nothing at first.He didn't even know what to say. Then he stood up and walked towards the window as he stepped towards the window and stared outside. He was thinking about you, about Fluttershy, how utterly fucked up things had gotten. Even beyond his control. And how you were so hurt over someone you shouldn't care so much about. "I'm heading to Canterlot"
>W-wut?
"D-dad?"
>That wasn't even keeping in line with things. You felt natural in saying it.

>>29726541
>"Chaos, is my game Anon. I don't know if this will make things better or worse. But I'll have a little chat with you-know-who. I'll give it my very best try. But let me ask you this. You won't hate me if I make things worse...right? I won't try to make it worse. But you know me, you just never know what will happen" Discord slowly turned his head towards you with an honest and serious look. What the fuck was he thinking.
"W-wait"
>You nod towards Muffin Top and she let's you down. You walk over to Discord. He was talking crazy. He can't do this. Celestia will mulch him in a batle of words. And then who knows what the fuck will happen.
>But you felt so touched. You've never seen him so serious to protect you and someone he can care less about.
"You can't do this. ....I'd rather just do what Mrs.Muffin Top said and just be a family. That just..might be best"
>"And so I'm reduced to doing nothing? Hrn, Anon. That won't do. I said I'd do my best and I've heard enough of what this pony has had to say. Believe it or not it pains me to see you so broken up over this.And so..." Discord snapped his talons, causing the entire area to fizzle out to black. It sounded like an endless void now. Only you could hear him speaking and nothing else. And that would mean he can only hear you. He was keeping it private. "I will have my own discussion with Celestia. And don't worry, if I do somehow lose. I'll just go back to my stalling tactic"
"Discord...D-dad...If Celestia finds out you know. I..."
>"You don't even know what she'll do Anon. Celestia has been declawed and defanged for quite some time. She's more of a softie than she's ever been and the only reason she's doing this is to make sure nothing happens to her precious ponies. Well, I have a few ponies I need to protect too. Even if I don't care for the bug you yourself are protecting.."
"You're just going to go, no matter what I say. Aren't you?"

>>29726582
>"Bingo! That's the plan. I just want you to trust in me Anon. I, well, it's hard to say this. But I just want to feel what it must feel like to be as cared about as much as you care for somepony who, need I remind you, tried to off you several times before"
>...Discord...dammit...
"Discord...I...Did I make you feel like you weren't as important?"
>But he said nothing
"....Discord I'm sorry...I didn't know. I didn't mean to make you feel like that. I didn't mean to make...anypony feel like they did...Discord. You're...You're the best Dad,bro, and friend anypony could ever have. I mean it, I mean it more than anytime I ever said it before. So much so that life wouldn't be worth living if something happened to you"
>He still said nothing
"Discord?"
>Then you heard a soft chuckle "Oh I'm here, I was just letting that sink in. So does that make me better than Chrysalis, right?"
>G-goddammit
"DISCORD! DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE! I'M SERIOUS!"
>"Well, that answers my question. If you're serious then that's surely a yes. Well, I have a princess to defeat in the art of debate. Wish me luuuuuuck Anon! And try to finish up with this pony. You're too emotionally attached to a ludicrous amount of ponies already. Ta-ta!"
>D-discord...that lovable cuntbag. He played you just for that answer. And yet...he was such a great guy.
>But did you really make him feel uncared for in anyway? Maybe you were the cuntbag. Even after all the lessons you learned. You still fucked up. You needed to get better. You needed to make sure all your friends knew you cared. But at the same time, you had to make sure you didn't lose chrysalis...or anyone...not one single friend.
>And then, you reappeared back in the classroom with Muffin Top
>..Good luck, Dad...

teensy tiny little update

>Someone picks you up and puts you on your hooves
>Someone shoves a torch in your face and you grab it without thinking
>Someone is pushing you towards the stage
>The stage, now charred and broken
>Smoke and embers rise into the morning sun
>You look down at the torch in your tiny hooves
>The fire is slowly creeping down the handle
>You don't want to imagine what might happen if a blaze were to spread from inside the crowd
>You barely got out of Station alive, and that shithole wasn't filled with manic autists who probably would'nt realize they're on fire
>You hoist the torch above your head
>It's surprisingly light
>It doesn't take much effort to lob it into the pyre
>You glance around, desperate for an escape route
>But none are in sight
>All this heat is starting to make you itch
>Probably should've bathed with Timber when you had the chance
>The dried urine on your belly irritates your skin
>Rubbing against all these bodies, surrounded by all this warmth
>You're going to get a rash
>Hodgepodge's corpse disappears as the stage collapses completely
>And just like that, the chaos stops
>Some ponies continue to mourn, but most go back to business as usual
>It's over so fast
>Like it's just routine
>With everyone spread about the camp again, you have your opportunity to fucking peace it
>And fucking peace it you do

>>29730261
>The forest has an odd lull to it
>No birds chirping
>No squirrels skittering
>No bugs screaming
>Even the wind seems dead
>But at least you're away from goddamn Aum Shinrikyo
>You've been walking for a about an hour
>Ought to be a few miles away by now
>Maybe a little less on these stubby little legs
>Your stomach grumbles
>Did you even eat last night?
>No, you didn't
>Probably for the best, who knows what horrors they laced those onions with

>>29730265
>You've come across a small clearing and
>O shit, is that a potato plant?
>You hurriedly dig at the small white flower, pulling it out when the dirt is loose enough
>Score
>They're tiny little bastards, but they're edible
>Probably
>Looks kinda like a peanut crossed with a tomato
>You bite a single spud directly from the root
>Tastes like sand

>>29730301
>The potatoes weren't very filling
>And you don't have any water to wash the sandy taste out
>It's been a few hours and the flavor still lingers
>It's infuriating
>At least with rotten dumpster food you get that special sourness you can't get anywhere else
>You don't even mind the food poisoning anymore
>Hell, at times the moldy fruit even tastes better than otherwise
>But this
>This is terrible
>Not even accented by anything, like a hint of body odor or the methane of rat droppings
>It's just straight up sand
>Maybe that's what muslims have to deal with
>Maybe that's why they're always getting into trouble
>You'd be pretty angry, too, if you had to deal with this all the time
>Something squirms underneath your foot
>You yelp and leap off, expecting to have crushed a cockroach or stepped on a snake
>But nothing seems to be there
>You eye it for a long time, to no avail
>This particular patch of ground does seem a bit higher than the surrounding forest floor, though
>Inching closer, you cautiously nudge the pile of leaves and sticks that cover the topsoil

>>29732548

>>29732480
I have to say no to this. Story is getting more interesting than ever before IMO and the last thing I want to see is a rushed ending to it with an even more rushed finale to what has been one of the best greens I've ever read.

>>29726606
>You are Discord
>Well, of course you'd be Discord. Who doesn't want to be Discord? Everyone should try to strive to be Discord.
>You were swimming through the air through Canterlot Castle. Invisible, looking for Celestia while spooking the guards along the way by either emitting a booming voice right in their ear or tapping them right on their spines.
>Even though you had something to do for Anon. You couldn't help messing with a few ponies along the way.
>And the more time you had to search, the more guards you had to spook. It was mildly entertaining.
>Then as you pass by another hall. You spot Luna talking to a little blue pony.
"Aha! That must be the illustrious Thorax. Ok Celestia, you can wait for a moment."
>You snicker as you rub your paw and talons together
"It's time for an intermission."
>You slither along the floor towards Luna and Thorax. Ignoring whatever they were blathering on about. You didn't care.
>You took control of Thorax's shadow and waited for a moment when he looked down in worry. He seemed to do that a lot so it didn't take a long time. And the moment that he looked, he saw his shadow turn into a soul eating, red crazy eyed monster. It made him so frightened he transformed back into a changeling and jumped onto Luna's back.
>"Thorax?! What is the meaning of this!" Luna demanded, finding Thorax's advance sudden and even a little frightening.
>"I-I saw a monster! Right there on the ground!" He pointed to the ground. But nothing was there.
>Luna was confused "I see no monster. Thorax, quickly! Change back. None of the guards can see!"
"None of the guards can see hmm? Interesting, quite the double standard that's going on here in this castle. Let's see how little Luna reacts if somepony does see"
>You slither on behind them and turn into a royal guard right when Thorax was hopping off Luna's back. "I-I'm sorry, really. I thought I saw some sort of monster. It scared me"

>>29732571
>"It's alright Thorax, perhaps you just need some sleep. You have been spending extra time studying the books we have given you. We aren't executing the plan until much later. You don't need to rush" Luna gives him a gentle smile as she gives him a pat, calming him down.
"P-Princess Luna!"
>You say in a shocked and deep voice, oh so good.
"You have been colluding with the enemy?! This entire time?! Then it's true, you really are still Nightmare Moon!"
>Luna and Thorax turned around in shock to see you. A frightened guardspony.
>"W-what?! But.." Luna didn't notice any guards around her vicinity "Guard, this isn't what it seems!"
"I must alert Princess Celestia at once!"
>And so with a hidden evil smirk, you turned towards a hallway that had a dead end.
>"W-wait! Thorax, stay here. I must make haste!" Luna rushed off after you. Already knowing you would have no where to go.
>Or, no where to go if you were any other pony.
>When Luna turned the corner to stop you. You were gone. The hallway was short and ended with a large potted plant at the end with a large painting of the sisters hanging on the wall. There was a door on the side but it was just a closet. She knew she should have you cornered. She opened the closet and looked about. Just fancy looking janitor stuff. No guard. She looked back at the hallways to spot Thorax, disguised and looking over. "Tho-Crystal Hoof, did anypony run by?"
>"U-ummm, no. I didn't see anypony" He seemed worried. But he told the truth.
>".....Perhaps it is I who needs sleep. How shameful, the princess of the night being distracted by her own sleepless mind. Ahrm, Crystal Hoof, this ends today's lesson. I need to rest for tonight" Luna coughed and exited the hallway, looking back again, and shaking her head in shame of herself as Thorax follows.

>>29732630
>You were hiding in the picture all along of course. As a little figure inside Celestia's crown.
"Well, that was fun. Now where are you Princess, you can't be too far"
>You slithered out of the painting and resumed your search
>But she was nowhere to be seen. At least not in any of the usual spots. So you just started to randomly search other areas of the castle.
>Until you found her in the kitchen, sneaking a few snack cakes from a plate. They must have been extras for something else.
"Well, Well, Well"
>you grinned at her as you became visible behind her.
"You may want to be careful there princess, wouldn't want to turn into a red giant now would we?"
>Celestia carefully puts the half eaten snack cake onto the plate. But she didn't turn to face you. "Discord, how have you been?"
"Oh, you know. Having tea with my bestest friend while also having to deal with the wild emotions of a confused human gone colt. That's all"
>Celestia sighed, but she didn't seem too surprised. "So Anon told you"
"Did you expect him not to tell me? Oh, for shame Celestia, you should know better to come up with a plot that directly interferes with my fun. Naughty naughty, very bad"
>Celestia turned around to face you. She was very calm and serene. You didn't like it too much. "I had an inkling he may. Just not so soon. But, here you are. So I expect that you have a few objections about what I plan to do"
"Oh ho ho"
>You laugh, half annoyed, half intrigued
"Do I ever. Tell me, what gives you the right to mess with Chryssy? You should know that I already cornered the market on fresh and delicious pranks and pokes when it comes to toying with insects."
>Celestia then looked into your eyes with a serious glare. Ohhh, you hated when she does that. Soooo boring. "I'm sorry Discord. But if that's how you wish to be, then you should know that she owes many debts to ponykind for all the pain and suffering she has caused. So I'm afraid your market has gone bankrupt."

>>29732695
>oh, she was being sharp on the wordplay today. Interesting.
>You rest your arm on the table and place your head on your paw as you yawn and look at her bored.
"Cute...But if you want me to be serious then fine.Serious it is. You see Celestia, Anon told me a few things that I cannot let you do. Reforming is great and all. Oh I know, I wouldn't have Fluttershy if she didn't put a little of her philosophy in my life. She's quite a lovely pony you know. Definitively the best element next to laughter. But I digress. When it comes to reforming, I happen to think you're not only doing it the wrong way. But that Anon has already got it covered. So why don't you take your little pet changeling and get him potty trained or something. We can handle it"
>Celestia shook her head and sighed "This isn't a game Discord. I fear she can't even be reformed. Even Thorax doesn't believe she can. And if from what I understand, neither does Scrappy. And Anon has made no progress in reforming her whatsoever. It was something I could already feel would have happened anyway. Chrysalis has only ever displayed a desire for conquest and destruction"
>You scoff and laugh at her, you actually laugh so hard you put your paw on your head to keep yourself still.
"Ohhahaha! Celestia you joker you. No progress? Have you seen how they interact with each other? It's smiles, laughter, fun, and everything in between. I'd say that's plenty of progress. Give Anon another day or two, perhaps a week and we'll have oh Chryssy smelling flowers and singing with the birds in no time"

>>29732740
>Celestia wouldn't break that glare. It was really throwing you off. "You're wrong Discord. I can tell this much. Her friendship with Anon is true. But we both know it's because Anon has stopped caring about all the evil she has wrought and refuses to atone for and uses his human experience to relate to her. And it's easy for him too, isn't it? Considering humans also seem to be a destructive and cruel race. Or am I wrong?"
>You were taken aback. Luna, she only knew that because Luna must have been poking around in his head and informing her of things she found. Well, Celestia was indeed prepared. Perhaps she was even correct. Bah, who cares about being correct? Without a twist it's just dull.
"It depends, humans are indeed more diverse than ponies. and much more chaos leaning to boot. But that doesn't matter, now does it? What matters is the fact that you can't expect that wormy wuss of a bug to reform an entire hive. That's just as ridiculous as a human reforming their queen. Utter nonsense, and I do know a thing or two about utter nonsense.
>"Thorax seems to think it can be done. And his word more valuable than yours or Anon's in that regard. And given the change he's going through and his lessening appetite for love. Then it's clear other changelings are capable of the same change, perhaps this change being part of an evolution within them."
"Oh? So blue wings mcgee, instead of being a mutation, is some sort of evolution. Ohh, very astute, very interesting"
>You say in a mocking tone
"Tell me Professor Suncheeks, doesn't an evolution occur after thousands of years of existing and adapting? How do you explain that? It's science! You can't explain away science."

>>29732800
>"Mhmm, since when did the Spirit of Chaos care about the laws of biology? this change has occurred and keeps occurring as he learns more about friendship. It's more progress in a few days than Anon has made with the entire time he has been with Chrysalis. It's an evolution through the magic of friendship. And I feel that this can be done through Thorax. "
>Now you were starting to lose your patience. There was no way that was possible. Not without some chaotic intervention.
"Celestia, perhaps you had one too many sweets. They must be clouding your mind. How can friendship cause a PHYSICAL change like the one you're suggesting. I mean, chaos magic can. Living in a funky environment can. And then there's plain ole corruption. But friendship?"
>You scoff
"Name one other example where the MAGIC OF FRIENDSHIP caused such a change."
>Celestia gives you a cheerful smile "I think you'll like the answer I have in mind. Twilight "Alicorn" Sparkle"
>......
>..........
>You just stare into the abyss
".....hummmm, I hadn't considered that. Ugh, whatever. So you MAY have a chance. But I still believe in Anon and since It's MY house then it's MY rules. And MY rules say no princesses allowed, so nyah!"
>You stick your tongue out at her. You had this. No matter how right she could or even may be. She wasn't stepping a single hoof into your home.
>"Discord please don't be unreasonable. This business is ours, and if we can at least save those who we thought unsavable then I want to try. I'm sorry about Anon, I am. But his way has made no progress with Chrysalis while others like Applebloom have made progress with Scrappy, or my sister and I with Thorax. It can be done, despite the cost being great. That is why my sister and I are also willing to take the burden that comes with our actions"
>You snicker at her, you didn't quite care what she did. You didn't come here to lose.

>>29732941
"Noble as ever. But you see, I don't care what you wish to do and how you plan to do it. I need things to be a certain way. And not only do I need Anon to remain happy and healthy to keep our family going. But I have more than enough power to keep Chryssy in her place whether she likes it or not. There's nothing you can do"
>Celestia frowned, she looked hurt. Why? Oh well, of course. Because you just won.
>"Discord, you haven't shown any ability to keep the situation truly contained. Chrysalis has already manipulated you enough to let herself roam Equestria at her leisure. So I'll ask again...Please let me do what I wish to do."
>You bend down to Celestia and give her a gentle boop on the nose
"Adorable, you think you can do something to me without your precious elements. Sorry Celestia. The ball is in my court and even if you wanted Twilight to do something, she couldn't. Even if you asked her and her friends to temporarily turn me to stone, they couldn't. Fluttershy wouldn't allow it. So, I win. You lose. Give me my trophy. Because I'm number one!"
>Then she really looked hurt. What a sore loser. How drool. Then again, you should have expected it to be this easy.
>"Then you leave me no choice. I will have to tell Fluttershy everything"
>.....what?
"What? About Chryssy being Nymy? Fine, go ahead. Then I can explain to her how well me and Anon have been doing handling her compared to the four princesses put together."
>You were rusing of course, But Celestia would believe it and back off.
>"No Discord, I will tell Fluttershy who Anon really is. And that will be that"
>....WHAT?!
"YOU CAN'T DO THAT!"
>The snackcakes, the ovens, the pans, they all started to release jets of flames upwards from your rage.
"THAT WOULD RUIN EVERYTHING! SHE'D NEVER TRUST ME AGAIN! AND WHAT ABOUT ANON!? YOU WON'T DO IT!"
>"Discord, you know for the ponies of Equestria. I'd do anything. That's why I'm sorry. This is the best I can do. So please...please...don't make me do that."

>>29732986
>All the fires extinguish simultaneously. In an instant...you lost.
>You were gripping your paw and talons. looking away from Celestia, ashamed of your failure.
"I think the last time I've heard you make such a threat was when we first met. I thought it was the cutest thing. I never even dreamed it'd ever cause me to feel like this so many centuries later..."
>"This is why I didn't want Anon to say anything to you. Because if he did, I knew we'd have to come to this point. I knew I'd have to press my authority as a princess to get through to you."
"Yes, well..."
>You couldn't think of anything. So you just had to ask.
"You'll really do it, won't you?"
>"If I must"
>Suddenly...everything fell apart. You had nothing more you could play. Why? why would she do this? Who cares about things becoming too dangerous? You can handle it. And even if you somehow couldn't. Twilight could...maybe. It's not like anything awful could happen. Right?....R-right?
>...Right?
>Celestia gently placed her hoof on your paw and looked up at you. She looked so sad. "Discord. You didn't fail. And this isn't your fault. We're just doing what we have to do. Please. Don't beat yourself up over it. Go home, be there for Anon. And do your best for him."
>You had no more words however. You knew nothing else you said could change anything. And you didn't want Celestia's sympathy. So you just snapped your tail fur together and disappeared.

>>29733046
Goddamn, Discord is as much of a failure as erfanon is

>>29732941
Very mature Discord, you sir are truly a master of debate and formuling arguments and shit.

>Celestia actually threatening to reveal the secret
Holy shit Erf, this just went from being season finale tier to a series finale tier situation.

>>29733046
I don't know how you do it erf, but you write Discord so damn well

>>29733217
Well erfanon is the mini-discord after all and they might act like partners, but in reality those two are pretty much father and son

>>29732480
Are you getting tired of writing, Erf? You don't have to get out a chapter every single night you know.

>>29733959
perhaps. actually, i don't even have a good reply to this right now. I think its just habit at this point

>>29732695
>Oh, for shame Celestia, you should know better to come up with a plot that directly interferes with my fun. Naughty naughty, very bad"
Gave me a giggle.

>>29733046
>willing to make an enemy out of the spirit of chaos again over something that is already contained

>>29732800
>>29732986
that pretty much confirms celestia doesnt like anon right there

Loop

I think that something must be said about the discord in erf's story: He is not very smart. Which is absolutely fine since Discord isn't really an intelligent guy in the show either. He knows how to put an act, which its different than actually having the brains. Of course, its just that, an act and when faced to someone who can see beyond the smoke and mirrors, Discord's limitations become apparent.

This update showed that, Discord actually believed his own act and defied someone who is simply way more intelligent than what he could ever hope to be. Erf Anon is kind of like that too when you think about it, his smarts are more an act than him being actually intelligent, he outperforms at school because he has the experiences of an adult but the body of a child, thus he can look like the most intelligent kid in school, but if he were to compete against actual prodigies, he would lose.

Erf Anon and Discord are more similar than what they let out or would be even willing to admit. I would even say that erfanon is more like Discord than Eris herself could ever be.

>>29734696
i agree

>>29734696
And I bring my comparisons again! Which I hope haven't become too annoying or obnoxious for erf and elo! Because you see, erf anon has failed at capitalizing every single advantage that he has had.

He failed at capitalizing his adult experience and status as the hero colt to become a respected figure for the youth of pony ville. He could have easily become the leader of the foals of that town, maybe even teenaged ponies, he could have become an indispensable pillar of that town, but he didn't do much with what he had and in turn he became just popular but ultimately irrelevant for a lot of ponies.

He could have used his looks to at least gather more female attention, to enjoy having tons of fillies dreaming about him, CMC included while erf anon enjoyed his relationship with DT and had fun at teasing other fillies. Instead, he killed that by being a complete dipshit.

He could had the respect and trust of the princesses if he wasn't so shady in how he handled Chrysalis. I suppose that is why they become so close, in their own way, erfanon and chrysalis are two fuck ups.

PhD on the other hand has been succesful in capitalizing while also learning from his loses. He used his intelligence and charm to win over everyone, including some former enemies and rivals like Moon Dancer and even that cunt of his teacher.

He used his charm and looks to become a powerful pussy magnet, but he still remains loyal to his bat, making the young prince to be the most desired and unobtainable colt in Equestria.

He used his kindness and trust in others so he could win in turn the love, respect and trust of his subordinates and the princesses. Maybe it wasn't a conscious decision, but PhD basically triumphed over ErfAnon by just having a bit of common sense and perspective.

That is part of why erfanon feels like the true heir of Discord while PhD feels at times that he deserves to be an alicorn much more than even Twilight

>From Discord’s wonky teleportation, you find yourself in a...um. You were in an grand room, one that you have never seen the likes of in your life. Spanning at least 30 meters, the room was like one giant hallway with a massive set of doors at one end and two large chairs adorned with gold. Hung from the extremely tall ceiling were many banners with a sun and a moon on them.
>The walls of the room were decorated with extraordinary stained glass windows that ran from floor to ceiling. Each one depicting ponies of differing colors and species doing something together, the main recurring ones being a group of six colored ponies – specifically a purple one – and...also what would appear to be Discord. As surprising as that was, it did raise a question: Who the fuck actually is Discord?
>He was an insane, sly bastard who just couldn't take it when things didn't go his way, you knew that from your previous interaction. But besides that, it occurred to you that you don't actually know what kind of role he plays in this world. He did mention being a “Master of Chaos” or whatever, but what that entailed, you couldn't even guess.
>Looking over the the windows depicting him more carefully, you notice that one is of him controlling three alicorns, as Discord called them, like puppets. In another he was greyed out and two ponies were circling him with their horns glowing, supposedly attacking him. The last one with him in it was basically the same as the second, except it was the six recurring ponies that were glowing.
>So was Discord some kind of criminal or something? Not that it really mattered to you, he was a jerk either way, you just hoped it wouldn't affect your new life.

>>29735860
>Nonetheless the sight of the room amazed you from where you were sitting, which was…
>You very slowly back up as far as you can from the precarious ledge just in front of you. Doing your best to stifle a scream down to a quiet whimper, you lay down, having just enough room that you you can rest your head on the edge of the small inlet you were in, just above the two chairs.
>Of course. Of fucking course he would stick you up away from the nice, safe ground. You were basically at ceiling height! If you had happened to take one step forward, you would have served better as a pancake than a person. But honestly, what should you have expected? You already covered that he was a jerk, so you'll just add that on, you guess.
>After a good while of settling down and boredom, you hear activity from below. Mustering up both your courage and your curiosity, you peak over the edge.
>From a door that you didn't quite notice before, on the wall just to the right of the seats below you, came two identical white ponies wearing golden armor with sapphire blue crests on their helmets, who walked to the base of the seats on either side. Following them, another white pony enters the room and sits on the chair to your left. This one though, unlike the others, was distinctly a female, taller than the others, had some freaky ass bed head, and had both a horn and wings. So this must be one of the princesses.
>If it wasn't painfully obvious that this was some sort of castle before, it is now. But you were still a bit confused. Wasn't there supposed to be a queen as well as–. You internally cut yourself off, remembering KK’s advice. Just don't fucking question it.
>It does make sense that she is only taking her throne right now though. According to the light coming in through the windows, the sun was near the horizon, signifying morning. Strange, the world you were in with KK must’ve run on different time or something.

>>29735868
>Once the princess is settled comfortably into her seat, a greyish unicorn in a maid’s outfit walks from the side door to the chairs, her horn was glowing with a light pink light and a small dish with a teacup on it floated alongside her, emanating a similar aura as the one around her horn.
>Hmm, well it at least makes a little sense that only unicorns can use magic, now that you've seen it in action.
>The grey pony hands the dish off to the princess, the action only being signified by a change in color around the plate from pink to yellow and a glow on the princess’ horn. As the princess lifts the teacup to her lips and takes a sip, three consecutive knocks on the large door at the other end of the room catch your attention, as well as the princess’.
>The door slowly opens, revealing a rather dapper looking Discord, dressed in a tux and a top hat, completed with a cane and even a monocle. Strolling happily down the hall, Discord speaks.
>”Why, Princess Celestia, it's so kind of you to drop by at such a convenient moment! I really must have a word with you!”
>The princess, or rather Celestia, straightens up in her throne.
>”I don't think I have to let you know that this isn't the best time for you to pay a visit, so what is your purpose of being here?”
>She spoke in a tone with authority, but not so much as to turn you off. While she did sound quite annoyed at his appearance, the stained glass windows elude to Discord possibly having done something in the past to deserve it.
>That, and he was just a jerk…
>Discord twirls his cane as he approaches the throne.
>”What, your good friend Discord can't come bearing good tidings and have a lovely conversation about such things without an invitation?”

>>29735879
>Celestia loses the calm demeanor she had in favor of a rather angry one.
>”Enough fooling around Discord, why are you here? You know very well that I already have limited availability due to the situation between the dragons and the saddle arabians. Between that and dealing with KK’s ridiculous requests, I don't have time for your shenanigans.”
>Besides that little outburst coming out of nowhere, that little comment caught your curiosity. ‘KK’s ridiculous requests’. What could KK possibly want from a princess? A few dozen things instantly pop into your head, but none of them could you imagine KK needing. She's an insane God wizard with a pet snake, there's not much you could get for someone like that. But, you digress.
>Discord slithers up to Celestia like a snake through the air.
>”Celly, didn't you hear me? I'm not here to cause you grief! I'm simply bringing you good news when you're in need of it most!”
>Moving behind the occupied throne, Discord starts to massage Celestia's shoulders, or whatever the fuck the horse equivalent was.
>”You can't condemn me for that, can you?”
>Celestia sighs and relaxes her body.
>”I suppose you're right Discord, I shouldn't have accused you of anything if you didn't do anything wrong, I'm sorry. What is it that you wanted to share with me?”
>Quickly floating to the ground before the throne, Discord straightens his suit and clears his throat.
>”Well in light of your predicament, I just wanted to let you know that you won't be having any trouble from me from now on.”
>You couldn't quite see her face, but you were pretty sure she was weary of his words.
>”Well...that's good Discord, your cooperation is appreciated.”
>Discord cackles at her remark.
>”Oh, I don't mean that I'm doing it for you! I'm doing it because I'm going to be a bit preoccupied with life, or rather, someone else's.”

>>29735899
>Celestia spoke, a slight tinge of anxiety inkling from her words.
>”What exactly are you implying?”
>”What I'm implying my dear Celly, is that I took your advice about becoming a responsible citizen of Equestria, and I've decided to start by helping a poor defenseless foal out of a tough situation.”
>Discord says enthusiastically.
>You didn't like him, but you'll give it to him, the guy can act.
>”You don't mean…”
>Celestia trails off a worried tone.
>Discord grins happily and looks up to you just for a second.
>You take that as a signal to get ready, so you do. Alright. Happy, loving, well behaved. Keep that in mind along with what you got from the bird and you should be fine. You sit up and nod to yourself as Discord continues.
>”Yes, that's exactly what I mean. Celestia, I'd like you to meet my new son!”
>Discord snaps his talons, making you appear sitting next to him with a little black bow tie around your neck, cute.
>Looking up, in front of you on a raised throne sat the white princess with her funky ass flowing hair. It wasn't really as bad as what you've seen. The sentinels back on Tetra had their fair share of weird haircuts, but that isn't what stuck out about her. What did, was her overall appearance. She slouched in her throne, there were slight bags under her eyes, and her crown was slightly crooked. All things that you couldn't see from your angle before.
>You sit up straight, and prepare to speak.
>Here we go.

>PhD learns that an alt King Sombrero wants to bang his mum and his mum kind of wants that to happen
Like pic related, or he would convince Discord to build an inter-dimensional wall

>>29733046
>You are Anon
>The colt from another dimension
>You were outside heading towards Lyra and Bonbon's house with renewed vigor. You were in a positive mood with a better outlook on things. You wanted to become closer with your friends. And off the top of your head. Lyra and Bonbon would be the friends you've visited the least.
>With Discord's abilities,determination, and intelligence. You were sure he would do just fine.
>As for Mrs.Muffin Top. Well, she was a pretty kindly pony. When you had calmed down. You had asked her if you could ask some questions. These questions would be about her to get the current situation off your mind. Well, thats what you told her. You told her just talking about something else would help you.
>You also had to explain away Discord's disappearance as something extremely important that you understood and was for your well being. Which, wasn't exactly a lie. Though she did seem upset either way that'd he just leave.
>Her cutie mark was probably what interested you the most. And her ability to read you. Well apparently it went hand in hand. She used to be a master dealer in Las Pegasus with an innate ability to read the faces of other ponies. That was her talent after all. She was so good at it that in every set of games she's ever played and dealt, she made sure to bring more money to the house than she ever lost. And apparently she had never made a net loss.
>That is, until a fisherpony by the name "Big Catch" came strolling in one day with money he had made from catching some legendary fish called "Mega Bassanova"
>He went to her table with nary a care of whether he won or lost. Apparently he had made decently good money as a fisher already and this money was just extra.

>>29738589
>Erfanon keks since he knows about that comic.

>>29738595
>Muffin didn't believe it to be the truth at first until she realized she couldn't read him at all. Apparently the guy is pretty absent minded at times when it comes to anything but fishing. And for the first time, she had caused the casino to lose money by failing to figure out what he was thinking. It also made her fall madly in love with him despite being fat and not very good looking. She loved him for his unpredictability.
>And for him? He had trouble keeping a mare because sometimes his fishing would takes weeks or even a month. They couldn't stand waiting or they just didn't want to deal with it. But apparently Muffin didn't mind. And in their marriage they had four children. Spade and Club, the stallions on the left side of the portrait. Followed in their mother's hoofsteps.
>Bait Masters, who you had to muster all your strength not to fall over laughing. Followed in his father's footsteps and helps him on the boat.
>However, and this surprised you as the mare looked so young and small, her daughter was the eldest and was aptly and accidentally named "Itty Bitty"
>Apparantly she goes out on her lonesome not to catch fish. But to catch the legendary uncatchables. Fish that fisherponies strive all their life to catch. She has apparently caught three so far. Impressive, and has found no stallion thats willing to settle with her. Or more, she won't settle period unless the stallion is as spry as she is. She sounded adorable.

>>29738616
>It was neat to learn. Gave you an idea of who you'd be around tomorrow.
>You wondered what BonBon and Lyra were up to actually. You remembered you also had to see them tomorrow with Scoots for some star gazing. But a visit today too should work.
>Though when you arrived at Lyra's house and knocked....there was no answer.
>In fact, when you decided to detour and try Bonbon's house....no answer.
"...come on, I don't want to walk around all day...
>You knock again, but no answer.
"Ogh, don't tell me there both in Canterlot. I thought them being there and here a lot was just an exaggeration from the show. LYRA...BONBON! ANY OF YOU IN THERE?"
>No answer.
>So what were you supposed to do with your day? Well, you were going to check up on Starlight. But what if she had left already?
>Uhhmmmm...why not? It's not like it'd be too much trouble to find out anymore now that you had a portal.
>So, using your map and dumping it near a convenient puddle. You return home and use the portal door to enter Starlight's town.
>Hrn, there has been some progress in just a few days.
>You enter the town from where you usually enter and look straight down to spot a building that looked completed at this point. That must be the new town hall.
>It made you think how fast they managed to get it built within a few days but. With nothing else to really do. You might as well get something important done.
>As you pass by the straight placed homes. You look around to see happy ponies doing happy things. The town itself was much more vibrant now than it was from the show. Sad it was still in the middle of fucking nowhere. That alone still made it feel kind of dreary.

>>29738691
>The building itself was MUCH bigger than Starlight's house. It was wide and made of marble with pillars lining the front. But it wasn't as big as say an average government building on earth, It was about half.
>You wondered if Starlight lived here considering her house was now gone.
>You look around, and spot a sign on the side plastered to the wall with some notes about furnishing. Lists of things like tables, seats, a podium, lots of stuff. But you didn't know why the list was there.
>Though when you pushed the doors open and peered inside. You could see why.
>The entrance hall was small and empty with no furnishings and the walls being made of brown wood. It wasn't even painted yet.
"Hello?"
>Your voice echoes, but no answer.
>You decide to take a look around. But each room you went into was just a big and empty square or rectangle.
>There was an odd thin hallway that was connected to the entrancehall as well that seemingly ends at a dead end.
>But along the way was a sliding door that led to a staircase the spiraled upwards to another door with a weird rope on the side of it. There was a sign but you didn't care to read it. You were too curious about what was behind that door.
>Peculiar. What kind of town hall was this that had something like this out of the way. Seemed like a secret to you. Even if the sliding door was obvious. It was down an empty dead end.
>When you pushed the door open. It lead to a round room with a bed to your left. a desk in the right with filing cabinets to the right of it and something else to hold..maybe food? Looked like a container of some kind. since there was a small stove on the side.

>>29738711
>When you stepped forward, there was a sudden clanging noise.
>A clanging noise coming from the top of your head.
>Because a freaking fryng pan slammed right onto your noggin.
"OGGGGH! WHYYY!"
>You fell to the ground your face slamming right onto the ground from the force of the slam.
>And it fucking hurt. But it didn't knock you out. You felt dizzy as fuck though.
"M-my...head...why?..always"
>"Oh my gosh! Y-you're Anon! Oh..OH!" You heard a scared stallion's voice as he lifted you with his magic and gently placed you on his bed as he dabbed his hoof on your head and sifted through your mane for any big injuries. "Are you ok?! Ogh..I hope I didn't knock him out"
>You groggily turn your head and look to your side to see a blue male stallion.with a balloon animal for a cutie mark.
"Starlight? When did you get so blue? and changed your cutie mark? And grew a dick..."
>"A what now? A-anon, are you alright? Oh no...Everypony is going to get upset at me. Anon, I'm not Starlight. I'm Party Favor." He looked worried as fuck.
"....Why did you change your name?"
>"Ohhh, I better get Starlight. H-hold on."
>Party Favor fetched you a glass of water and put it beside you as he dashed out to fetch Starlight.
>you just rolled on your back as you groaned and held your head Looking around the empty room.
"Ugggghh, I swear, when I find out who hit me. I'm going to shove my horn right up their ass...."

>>29738731
>It took awhile. But your head finally cleared up enough for your senses to return.
>You looked around and get a little spooked until you remembered what you were doing.
"Fuck..where am I? Is this part of town hall? Or was I kidnapped? Where the hell am I?"
>You hop off the bed and take another look around. First by opening the filing cabinets.
>But when you open the bottommost drawer You got blasted with streamers and confetti.
"GYAH!"
>You fall onto your back as the confetti falls on your face. Forcing you to spit a few times.
>You then look straight up at the ceiling. Annoyed.
".....who the fuck puts party shit in their filing cabinet?"
>...Then it sorta dons on you
"....aside from Pinkie"
>And then you hear the door open. Prompting you to hide on the side of the filing cabinet. Because whoever it was. was fucking violent.
>"I-I swear Starlight. I didn't know. He didn't ring the bell. I really thought he was a burglar." You saw Party Favor step in first, nervous about what he had done to you.
>"Party Favor, it'll be ok. I promise. C'mon, you have to get a grip. You're the mayor now." Starlight said as she had a saddlebag on with a red cross on it.
>"I know, but This is bad. What if I really hurt him?" Party Favor has his eyes completely on Starlight.
>Starlight looked worried too. But not as much as him. "Well...let's just find out if he's....huh?"
>She noticed you weren't on the bed "Party Favor, didn't you say he was resting on the bed?"
>"I uhh...yes?" Party Favor looked upon his bed. But you weren't there. He immediatly started to panic and opened the window to look down "OH NO! WHAT IF HE JUMPED OUT THE WINDOW?!"
>"Party Favor relax. " Starlight tried to calm him down "He wouldn't just do that"

>>29738749
>"S-Starlight. It's just. My entire talent is entertaining and helping ponies, especially the kids. And now? I hurt one, really bad! I knew being mayor was a bad idea, but I didn't listen to myself! How can I be a good mayor if I go around smacking foals around?!"
>"PARTY FAVOR!" Starlight gave him a slap on the face "Get ahold of yourself. I promise you it'll be ok. We just need to find him!"
>oy christ, the guy was having a meltdown because he thought he hurt you. Lucky for you. You were used to getting smacked on the head. But fucking mayor? Over Starlight? How the fuck did that happen.
"Ok ok, relax. I'm here. Before anypony asks. I wasn't aware of where I was and I was afraid of who was coming in"
>They both noticed you. And while Party Favor still looked worried. Starlight could already tell you looked pretty ok and she let out a sigh of relief. "Anon, you're ok! That's good but...what are you doing here? And how is your head?"
>You give her a soft smile as you approach her and give her a hug.
"The usual, it works. Gonna take more than a frying pan to get the better of me. Oh, hey. Party Favor, relax dude. I'm fine. See? ra-tacha-ratatacha!"
>You did a little dance and smiled at him to show you were fine.
>"Oh thank Celestia. I thought I really hurt you. But, yeah. What are you doing here?"
"Um, well. I wanted to talk to Starlight about something and I thought she may have been in here. It looks like somepony lives here after all."
>"Well, I live here. I'm the mayor of our town...which doesn't have a name still" Party Favor informed you as he relaxed himself

>>29738774

"Weird, I would have thought Starlight would have become mayor if you guys were going to have a mayor."
>Starlight gave you a sheepish smile, more calm now that everything was ok, but feeling a little anxious about the whole thing. "Well, I was mayor. For all of a minute"
>Wut?
"Ok, what exactly happened then?"
>Party Favor chuckled nervously "Well, we held a quick election and Starlight chose me as her opponent. We didn't really need to campaign or anything since everypony knew us anyway. It was pretty short. And in the end Starlight won...then resigned. And here we are"
>Well damn.
"So, did you make that happen just to make him mayor no matter what? Why?"
>"Well, I mean. I didn't. It's just I don't feel I'm really ready to lead the town again yet. E-even though I sort of have since I came back. Party Favor is a lot more qualified right now. Aside from...well...hitting you with a frying pan. He's pretty confident, good with the kids, friendly, hasn't enslaved a town yet, and is really good at setting up social events which helps attract more ponies to the town for trade and new residents" Starlight sighs "I feel I should just give another qualified pony a chance to lead."
>"And I just hope I can handle it. But, I-I know I won't be doing it alone. I have the support of the entire town. And I did promise to do my best for them. I guess I just lost my nerve for a minute" Party Favor sighed
"Well, it's alright man. I guess I didn't notice the bell or anything. My bad. Won't happen again."
>Starlight approached you and gently moved your mane about to make sure there wasn't any bumps or bruises. Amazingly. You looked alright. "Ok good, you really do look ok. So, what did you need to talk to me about?"
>You look to Party Favor, then back to her.
"Actually, it's something really really private. And I'm pretty glad you haven't left to the Crystal Empire yet"

>>29738807
>"Well, I was going to catch the evening train so I could sleep on the way over. I wanted to have a whole day to catch up with him...but um, private? Ok. Party Favor? you don't mind if we use your room to talk. Do you?"
>"Of course not. I guess I better do some mayoring stuff anyway. Check on the town and all that. See if there's anypony with a birthday coming up. Take as long as you both need and Anon? I'm really sorry about hitting you on the head" He still looked rather broken up about it.
>You just grin at him,walk over, and pat the side of his leg
"It's alright dude. Really, I've taken a lot worse. I'll be ok."
>"Alright.I'll leave you two alone." And so, feeling a little better about it. Party Favor left you and Starlight alone.
>Starlight put the medical bag on the bed and hopped into Party Favor's desk seat as you plopped your butt on the floor. "So, what did you need to talk to me about Anon?"
"It's complicated, I'm going to tell you some things first. And I want you to tell me what you think. Ok?"
>"Alright, no problem. I hope it isn't anything serious. Oh" She sighed in relief "I'm glad Party Favor didn't use the taser I gave him either. Woo, that could have been pretty bad"
>Wut?
"You gave him the taser?"
>"I gave him the rebuilt prototype to keep up here in a safe since I want it to be close but closed off to everypony. Only he and I know the combination. The safe itself is behind that filing cabinet there." She points to the cabinet.
>Interesting. But not important at the moment.
"Yeah, it's good he didn't use it.Anyway, Starlight. This is super important. So pay close attention ok?"
>"As if I wasn't. Anon, are you sure you're ok? You're looking pretty worried all of a sudden."
>Of course you were suddenly worried. You were putting this fucking Celestia business back in your head. But it'd be ok. Discord had things handled. Really? You only needed to talk to Starlight for some of her advice and to be around her a little bit. It'd be fine.

Wish there was discussion of the different stories that this thread got and not just Erf and PhD as if they were the only writefags posting here.

>>29738854
"I have a lot on my mind. And a lot to say. That's all"
>But it seemed Starlight could read it all over your face. She didn't need to be an expert to know what was on your mind. And she didn't seem too happy about it either. "This is about Queen Chrysalis again, isn't it?"
>Were you that obvious?
"Yeah...but, there's a lot that's happened over the past few days and.."
>You stop, you could tell by her face that she didn't seem to want to talk about Chrysalis. But you needed this, you needed her advice. She was relatable and super smart. The only one you could really talk to about this.
>You look right into her eyes, trying to show her with your expression that you wanted to discuss this.
"Please, just hear me out. Please?"
>Starlight sighs, she didn't really want to hear this. But she didn't want to shoo you away or give you the impression that she didn't like you. It just was what it was. "Alright, alright. I'll listen. So, what's happened? What's going on?"
"Well..."
>You explain to her what's going on. What the princesses are up to. That you showed Chrysalis another movie. That you want her to reform. You explain more in depth about Scrappy and then go into Thorax's appearance. What Discord went and did. And the plan to reform the changelings over reforming Chrysalis.
"...And that's it. They think I can do a better job than I can. Even though making friends with Chrysalis, I'd say, is a pretty big thing. Don't you think?"
>Starlight looked to the right, looking away from your eyes as she answered "Do you really want me to answer that?"
>...ahg?! Really?!
"...Starlight, you think I'm wrong?"
>"I just know what I've read. And I remember when she showed up when I was in your house. There wasn't any good in her. I could just, y'know, feel it. Besides, if even her own changelings thinks she's pure evil then what do you expect me to think?"

>>29744482
I think that a lot of that comes because most writters are still setting up how their stories will be, even Wando is just getting out of that initial phase and it still feels like he's experinenting on what tone he wants his story to be. Meanwhile, erf and elo have a very defined tone, setting and characters, their stories are already a well oiled machine so it's easier to discuss and speculate about those two stories.

>>You barely got out of Station alive,
haha, speed, I saw what you did there.

It's now obvious, Anon is that guy in the videos who ran out the back and kept running back and forth from the front to back, but never once thought to go in thru the back and be like
> Uh hey, guys? This is a faster, safer, way out than those rickety pallet wood stairs that
> ... OH SHIT THEY BROKE!
I mean fuck.

And just a think about pallet wood. You never fucking know. There could have been biowaste containers tossed on there, and the containers could have failed in shipment and THAT is why the pallet has been thrown out.

They could have been used to transport fucking hydrazine or any other number of mind-fuck toxic, carcinogenic, chemicals. They could have been used for nuclear waste transport.

But hey-- they free! dey gud wood! Dey up-cycling!

North America is COVERED IN FUCKING TREES. We have more trees today than in the 1500s, pre colonization. There are more trees today. Think about that.

Yellow pine grows like weeds in north america. A 2x4, 10' long will cost you less than $2 when buying direct from a mill. Even LESS if you buy rough green lumber.

The reason pallets are thrown out is because wood is near worthless. It's garbage in North America.

We're not Europe. Europe has no forests at all, they fixed that. As such wood is, indeed, a premium product over in those impoverished europorian lands where they only have mud and feces and sand to build homes and other structures from. In Europe, you can sell a plank of warped, rough cut, nail littered and stained pallet wood for a years labor value. As such, pallet wood has become a black market connected with the slave trade of Europe.

Anyway, with the news reported

Damn Erf, you say you want to end it and you do this. Some people are addicted to all sorts of selfish things. Your addiction brings people joy.

>>29744537
>You expected something different.
"I expected you to maybe understand my side of things. Maybe? Y'know, don't you think it's kind of messed up that Celestia can just do that? What if something goes wrong? The entire hive will definitely be lost if it does. They'll just want to destroy everything."
>"Yeah...that's pretty bad too." Starlight leans back on the chair and tries to think "This is insane. Thinking about it that way. If they screw up things would definitely get worse. Chrysalis wouldn't trust you at all if that happened and failed. Then again, we don't know what Chrysalis is up to either. I'm sorry Anon, you say she's your friend and thats fine. But you also said she hates ponies and wants to enslave us. You know she's plotting something. She's gotta be"
>Well...she wasn't wrong.
"I mean...she is. But, she's contained. There's nothing she can do when she's also stuck as a pony"
>Starlight nearly fell over when you even admitted it. "Anon! So you know she's planning something and you think it's ok just because she's "contained"? How can you be so sure she doesn't have a way to change back or a way to force Discord to change her back?"
"Now hold on. I know what you're thinking. Trust me, there's NO WAY she could reverse it. Not unless she somehow got back to her kingdom"
>"Her Kingdom? Why? What would happen if she went back there?"
"Well, apparently it has a anti-magic field throne that would cancel Discord's magic"

>>29744607
>Europe has no woods
And the reason for that is because they went full retarded during the industrial revolution, had two world wars in their territory and never did anything to recover the lost wild lands.

The US has had programs that takes care of the enviroment since the 19th century. Of course, ideologies on what needs to be protected has changed since we have a better understanding on ecology, weather and population dynamics now, but Europe didn't do that until way later.

Even third world countries like my own have done a much better work in conservation than Europe. Now they are trying to fix those mistakes, but their massive urbanization, demographics, geography and style of life are big obstacles for them.

>>29744624
>Starlight groaned as she put her hoof to her face and shook her head "Anon, I'm not saying this to upset you. But are you listening to yourself? Can you not see how crazy this sounds to say...Anypony else?"
>You kind of did. But, this is why you had things under control. As did Discord.
"I know it sounds bad Starlight. But like I said, I have things under control and so does Discord. My only real problem though is that I can't really figure out a way to reform Chrysalis right now. All I have is her friendship. But I need to do more."
>"Anon, let me ask you a question. What if you can't reform her? What if you never do? Then what? If you think she's going to just stay in your basement forever all nice and complacent then I definitely know you're wrong. From what I've read and what I know. Changelings will eventually go nuts without real love to feed off of. They apparently get extremely hostile the longer they go without it. I don't know how long they can last on that orb thing you mentioned from before. And even if Chrysalis brings them love from ponies they can eat. Their instincts will still eventually get the better of them and things will fall apart anyway. so again, what's the long term plan here?"
>Long term plan...No, you didn't need one. You KNEW it was possible despite what Celestia may think.
"Chrysalis can be reformed. Like I said, that Chrysalis from that other dimension. Which was, by the way, another timeline, reformed after some dire things happened to her. I'm not going to do anything to hurt her myself, but it lets me know that it's possible. That's why we need to put our heads together and figure it out. Starlight, please. Can we stop? I already went through this with Celestia. I came to you for help. Not for this..."

>>29744673
>"Anon...Let me ask you something about that other Chrysalis. After this, I promise I'll help you. But only after this last thing. ok?" Starlight was asking specifics about her? Huh, why? What does it matter other than it's your proof?
"Ok, that sounds fair. What's the question?"
>"Are you sure it was a Chrysalis from another timeline? How sure?"
"Well, pretty sure. Discord mentioned he was able to open doors to other timelines due to some time manipulation from another dimension close to ours."
>"That's what I thought..." Starlight got up and walked to the filing cabinet and used her magic to move it aside to reveal a safe, she then started to spin the dial to get it to open.
"What are you doing?"
>"Taking a few things out, I was going to bring with me to the Crystal Empire to ask if they can returned to Canterlot. And also apologize. I hid them in the safe considering how important they are."
>She walked over to the bed and dropped a couple of huge books and a scroll onto it.
"Canterlot? Return? You stole these? Starlight, what the? Why?"
>Starlight shook her head "Don't get any ideas Anon, these are the same books and scroll I had in the cave where we first met. I just haven't had time to return them yet. But look..." Starlight picked up one of the books as she struggled with some sort of spell. She was actually sweating a little when she cast it on one of the books. Making it thicker with more pages. Huh... "This book here? It has Starswirl's complete notes on what he's discovered on Time Travel. I already found a way to improve on his spell using this scroll, only took a little extra studying. but I wasn't aware of the effects or consequences. But Anon, this is going to clear something up about that possibility you keep mentioning"

>>29744707
>Time Travel notes? That's right, she had mentioned she had worked on it before. Still keeping the stuff around and not having to watch her back must have given her more time to do research. Even finding some secret notes of some kind.
"Ok, but what does this have to do with Chrysalis?"
>Starlight opens the book to the hidden notes "A lot, are you ready for this Anon? This is a little bit of a mouthful. But it's going to make a few things clear. Alright? Like I said. No matter what, after this. I'll help you. But I just want you to hear me out"
>This was interesting. Even coincidental. You weren't aware she still kept the time travel stuff around and now it's apparently relevant. Plus, these were hidden notes from Starswirl. Notes that even Twilight probably had no idea about. Starswirl the bearded seemed like a powerful guy so anything he has to say, related or not, has to be interesting.
"Alright, shoot"
>"Ok, Ahrm" She clears her throat as she gets up on the bed and then looks over at the chair she was sitting on "Why don't you grab a seat? Make yourself more comfortable first"
"Alright"
>You decide to do what she says, and climb up onto the chair and spin it to face her. Huh...it was a spinny chair. Maybe a little later you could spin around a bit for fun.
"I'm ready"
>"Ok. So here we go."
>There are the secret notes of Starswirl the Bearded, regarding his further investigation into Time Travel.
>"If you are reading this, then you have broken the seal on my notes with powerful magic all your own and wish to understand the complexities of Time magic. Or moreso, what I understand of it. Well, let me just say at this moment that it would be ill advised to try to control time and space through magic due to the dire consequences it can hold. Allow me to explain"

>>29744727
>"As you may have read, or even tried yourself if able. There is a time spell I developed which allows one to go back in time for only mere seconds. There is however, another way to make it last longer. But due to it's dangers, I will not explain how to replicate it in any of my notes. I will instead leave an incomplete scroll which holds the base of the spell needed to create a stronger time spell in which only a powerful and wise unicorn could figure out and use. One that I pray will be mindful and courteous with their ability to manipulate time as I myself have not mastered it yet. But that is neither here nor there."
>"As for the spell itself. I had used a very VERY dangerous spell to energize two crystals with "Chronos" energy. An energy I discovered that unfortunately, when gathered, causes much of the life of the gatherer to wither away. That is why I will not share how to replicate the spell here. In anycase, using one of the two crystals. I returned back to the past to meet with myself with full confidence that I had actually mastered time at this point. I returned to the precise moment in time I had before using the base spell. And in doing so. I had planned to impart my past self with with all the knowledge I gained throughout the years so he may study other magics and further improve his magical prowess. Things were fine at first. He understood, as did I, how important this was and didn't even mind my methods of using time travel to meet with him. Though, two things struck me as off as we spoke."

>>29744750
>"One was that I don't remember this encounter myself, I only remembered an odd vibrating chill in my spine. I would think that speaking to my past self would mean that I would have twice as much knowledge studied. But it was not to be when I noticed the second problem. My younger self was drinking the vile black tar known as Coffee! Coffee, a drink that I could do without. It was bitter with a foul taste. But the worst part of it all was the fact my younger self was drinking it. And had apparently been drinking it for years instead of the calm serene taste of tea"
>"We argued for what must have been about thirty minutes before the crystal I was using cracked from the excess of magic and flung me back to the present. It took me awhile to get over the nausea from the sudden trip but it appeared everything was as it was supposed to be. But it also meant my second crystal would only let me return for only so long which meant my plan was a failure in that regard. I was ready to write of time travel for a very long time after the strange coffee anomaly. In fact, I just wanted to spend the day meditating while drinking my beloved tea"
>"But to my horror, when my apprentice, Princess Celestia, had brought me my beloved tea and I took a drink; I immediately found myself heaving when I realized I had downed coffee. Understandably, I was angry. But it had seemed Princess Celestia had not understood my anger as I had apparently been drinking coffee all my life. This was an ultimate horror"
>"I resigned myself to my study upon discovering this fact. And locked myself in for days as I tried to figure out what went wrong. Something had gone wrong with the time spell. But what?"

>>29744763
>"Days turned into weeks, I don't even remember if they turned into months. But after many controlled experiments and further study into dimensional theory. I came to realize a horrifying fact. Returning back in time to a point I had already visited with a prior time spell had caused a ripple in time. That's what caused that deathly chill when I had returned to my past self. Going back in time twice to the same time and place had caused a temporal fusion and then separation of dimensions. Creating the regular time space dimension I was from, We'll call it Time Space A. And the time space dimension I find myself in now, Time Space B."
>"My problem now was trying to return to Time Space A. I only had one crystal to use and forging more may have caused more trouble than it was worth. Of course, with my great knowledge. It did not take me long to figure out all I need to do is go further back in time and then return to my own time. And although I cannot do that manually. When the crystal shatters, it will happen automatically. As long as I go back further before the split in time space and make sure it was not a time I had already been too. It will work. As it will not cause any further splits in the time space continuum."
>"Of course, if you are reading this you are well aware that it did indeed work. And I hope these notes, to whomever reads them, helps them understand the dangers of time travel. Especially if one should master it and create multiple time space dimensions by returning to a certain point in time multiple times. As it would cause subtle to drastic changes to events and even the personalities of beings within that dimension and make things worse with every route created."

>>29743863
GTFO at any time.

>>29744830
>Starlight closes the book "And that's it. If that dimension you jumped into was another time space dimension. Then I can only guess that somewhere at sometime around that time, I had managed to finish the time spell completely and carry out the revenge I was planning. Causing anomalies that Discord managed to find and open doors to from wherever he was when he made those doors. And do you know what that means Anon?"
"...uhm...no?"
>You really didn't, you kind of blanked out a few times during that whole thing.
>Starlight sighed "It means that the dimension you jumped into may have had a ton of changes in it. A change in that Chrysalis that would have made her capable of reformation."
>A change?
"I don't think so. What happened was pretty traumatic for her, she even told me the Chrysalis of this world could reform. I think she knows what she's talking about. Besides, everypony seemed the same to me mostly.It was just a different circumstance"
>"So aside from events being wildly different. There was nothing out of place in that dimension? Nothing that was so noticeable in the sense it shouldn't be there? Are you sure? Think carefully Anon, I don't think Starswirl would write these notes if he thought he was wrong"
>But what if he was....
"Let me think. Because I'm having trouble thinking of anything that was off"
>And so you pondered. Aside from circumstances changed by time, everything seemed mostly normal. Well....wait....
>....Sunset Shimmer was there.
>And..she had mentioned the portal to Equestria had closed up due to some dimensional distortion.
>A time distortion?
>...no, fuck no. No...NO!
"...A-are you telling me there really is no connection between that dimension and this one other than it having the same ponies?"

>>29744867
>Starlight nods "If Starswirl's notes are right. Then yes. I'm sure. Especially since you told me there was that many doors. I guarantee each one had a different timeline in it, each vastly more different than the last. So it's very possible that the Chrysalis from that other timeline was mistaken. Simply because for different timelines to exist, there had to be multiple seperations of time space by somepony returning to a point in time multiple times for some reason. So Anon, I'm going to ask you. What do you think now that you know all this?"
>What you think?
>...w-what you think?
>How can that even be? Could she really be right? Was that really it? A time flux? It would mean that there really may be no way to reform Chrysalis.
>The only thing you could be sure of was her friendship to you.
>So what DO you think? What are you supposed to think? Was Discord right?
>You invested so much into nothing. When you should have invested into the friends that actually matter.
>But Chrysalis matters too. The only reason you cared about her the most was because she was the one in immediate danger right now. But, with this information coming out so conveniently. What were you supposed to do?
"...I don't know what I think. I'm just...I'm afraid that even with Discord holding back the princesses. I can't do anything."
>You were just staring blankly ahead. This time, it was really hammered in.
>"I'm sorry Anon, but I felt you really needed to hear that. I didn't want you getting in over your head or anything like that. But I'm keeping my promise. If, for whatever reason, you still think it's possible to reform her. Then I'll brainstorm with you until it's night time. Because after all that, if you still feel it's possible, then there really must be a way"
>....was there a way?

>>29744873
>You felt stupid
>You felt utterly stupid.
>Everyone was telling you the same thing and you refused to listen
>Were you under Chrysalis's control? Or did you really just enjoy her company that much that you just slowly started to disregard everyone else.
>Everyone else was right. Even some dude who didn't even know what the fuck friendship was nor knew the situation you were in.
>You felt foolish
>You felt naive
>You slumped over again. You didn't cry. You just felt empty.
"Starlight, I goofed again. I put so much emphasis and work into this that I really did lose sight of what is important. I caused ponies to get hurt and I got angry at those who didn't deserve it. And yet, even realizing all this. I still want to save Chrysalis. And it makes me feel like a monster because it makes me feel like I don't care about anypony else"
