The Day-Dreaming committee of Discord's Emotions
Celestia was perched on her window seat, patiently sipping her tea as she awaited Discord's complaints of that day. Such things had become routine, although, with Discord it was always different. Last time was a good example of this, he had been so worked up about her treatment of him, that he had slipped into the castle, only to barge into the sun princess's quarters to confront her. She couldn't imagine how he thought nopony would be able to hear him in the castle. Why, anypony from the Crystal empire and half way to saddle Arabia could have heard him!
Discord had summoned up that twisted throne of his again, it's black and red cushion and frame out of place within the tranquil halls, but then, that's the way he preferred it.
As usual, Discord was late, although this time it was by ten minutes instead of five. He must either be very frustrated today, or he's decided to make a point (knowing full well she couldnt make an issue out if it, so long ad he didnt skip out on it altogether. Nor would she wish to. Despite what he beleived she upheld her kingdom through vigilance anf hard work. Celedtia haf no time to let him pester her over trival things. Besides she used his tardiness as am exscuse fir a tea break. So shw coukd hardly complain.) of being a free citizen in Equestria. It was unquestionable what with his tardiness on both accounts that this afternoon would not be a dull one. discord had a way of making things more difficult than they had to be. Celestia didn't take this personally, however, though Discord made his distaste plain to her. It was just that it was hard to think much of Discord's antics the same as she had before she saw how he treated "sparky". Celestia tried not to show the humor she found in his nickname for her student, as well as her relief with the realization that she was not the only target of Discord's pestering. perhaps she would reach out to Twilight on this matter, that is, if her amusement ever ceased.
“It seems to me you visited a certain yellow pegasus an awful lot, too much even. What say you to a busier work schedule/ load, that you do not bore yourself so much as by your visits to the element of kindness?”
Discord’s facial expression changes, and he glares, red eyes aglow. His dark unwavering glance once drove ponykind to the brink of madness/ insanity, but it has no effect on me, I am not so unnerved by such inferior/ pitiful attempts.
I smile at his enraged features, I had guessed correctly, there was something transpiring at the times Discord claimed to be visiting the mentioned mare.
I decide to figure out what.
“So, Discord, what do you spend your time with the element of Kindness? I'd there anything I should know, because it would be in your best interest/ to your benefit if I were to find out now.
“well… we went water skiing the other afternoon, and I learned how to catch fireflies with my best pal,
“You're kidding, aren't you? I mean, who was it that wantedme to partake in the magic of friendship in the first place?!”
“There is no need to point out what I already know, Discord.” Celestia answers to the latter. “I am being completely serious, but unless my ears deceive me, you think your time better spent apart from the element of kindness.”
“I only meant that, seeing as friendship is unimportant to you, that you would rather do more good around Equestria with your magic.”
“Like that even sounds like me. Come on, Tia. You're bluffing”
“Indeed. This was all a farse.”
“You can't even tell me a decent lie, Tia, you're- wait… I would ask what, but i already picked up on that, so...why?”
"As I said I thought you would rather spend your power doing something useful instead of performing party tricks. I've brought this up.I'm part, because I couldn't agree more in that your time can be better spent without frolicking amongs red groves and picking daisies for flower crowns and whatever else one is stricken by an... infection stronger than that of mere freindship."
“Her name,” Discord growl, “Is Fluttershy… and if you can't get that through your thick head, then you're not fit for the/ that crown.”
“\Now just hold that thought Discord, you wouldn’t want to disappoint Fluttershy with the attempt of such a feat again, or would you risk it?”
Discord responds with a grunt and a quick glare before closing his eyes and crossing his arms in indignation/ in a pout.
I smile to myself at his antics, and take another sip of green tea.
“You know Discord, she holds you very close to her heart/ dear to her heart.”
I look up to see no reaction apparent to me, only a slight twitch/ fidget.
“I’d go as far as to say she loves you.”
Discord sputters in reaction. I go. his this time,. “She does?! Oh this makes me feel so-! Wait…. how do you know?” Discord accuses me/ inquires skeptical, suspecting some sort of trick at his expense.
“Simple, my sister Luna has seen some fascinating telling signs of Fluttershy’s love for you. Although, she tries not to enter her dreams, and respects her privacy as best she can, what she has happened upon has her certain that Fluttershy thinks more of you than a friend, or at least, that she has become to show an over fondness for you.”
Discord doesn’t move, not sure how to react to this news. He just lets it soak in/ just absorbs it.
“Normally I would say this was unhealthy, but she’s right, you have changed considerably since your reformation. Congratulations.”
“psht! as If you're opinion means anything to me. Wait… did she really say that about me? That I’ve become a better draconequus?”
Celestia shakes her head in amusement, but nonetheless answers Discord's question. “Yes. She has
