"Attack Names"
"So, Let me get this straight. You want to make the world chaotic for 1000 years right" I ask
"Yes, what is so hard to understand about that?" Discord answers after he takes a sip of his tea, I mimic his action and take a sip of my Orange Tea. His hair is as white on top and black on the sides, he has a soul patch that kind of looks like he forgot how to lick the inside of an oreo. His clothing consists of a brown bomber jacket with white fur on the inside, a black t-shirt, a pair of blue jeans with holes in the knees and a pair of black shoes.

"Wouldn't that, in turn, make you the god of order and harmony? because after 1000 years, hell, after the first 100, the people who lived in harmony would get used to the chaos and make that their social norm, which would make chaos the new order, which would change you from the god of chaos into the god of harmony. So, that would, in turn, make all that you've done worthless because without chaos there is no harmony and without harmony, there is no chaos. Hell, that's why I'm not fighting you, I know that you're needed in this world just as much as anything else. That and you're pretty much the coolest dude I've met in a long time." I intelligently point out as I take another sip of my tea, now turned into Earl Grey.
His face then faults and he takes a thinking pose, more specifically he turns himself into The Thinker statue. After a little while, he looks at me while stunned, "Y-You're right! If I did that, I'd end up a jaded old bag just like Celestia! What a world, What a world! Tell me, what do you think I should do, Doc!" He says as he snaps his fingers and lies back on a therapists bed.
"I think you should turn the world back to normal and give it chaos in small dosages, like hey, a few days out of the year will be chaotic as shit, while the rest of the year you can chill and take some time to get readjusted. I mean seriously, you've been in stone for how long?" I ask
"7000 years and I don't think Celestia would agree to something like that, I mean seriously she turned into such a heartless woman since the last time I saw her. What's the deal with that anyway?" He inquires.
I take another sip of my tea at the same time that he does,"Green Tea," We both say as we drink.
"One point for me, Two points you," I say, we turned how many times we got Green Tea into a small game, each time we scored a point, we got to place a domino on the table in front of us, which is made out of chocolate by the way. "I think it may be the fact that she sent her sister to the moon for like 1000 years or some shit. It may also be the fact that she's ageless and can't fall in love with someone who can die easily, so, you know. But I think I can convince her to let you chill at my place for a bit, she owes me for helping them," I say as I point out the now un-discorded Elements of Harmony.
"Arthur! What are you doing! He's evil, have you seen what he's done to Equestria!?" I hear Rainbow Dash yell. I take a look at the flying fish nearby and the deer sized rabbits and shrug.
"This shit is normal where I come from. Hell, with all the war, death, famine, disease, and general bullshit, this would be a good day." I say as I take another sip. "Green Tea, B-T-Dubs." Discord clicks his tongue as I place another domino down on the board.
"Are you insane!? He made us all go against each other!?" Twilight yells. If I didn't have a crush on her, I would have totally called her out and tell her that the only reason that shit truly happened was that they didn't completely trust each other. But I do. So I won't.
"And aren't you always going on and on about how Friendship is important? I don't think he's evil, I think he needs a friend. I'm willing to put any and all of my differences aside to be his friend. Wouldn't you want the same if you were in his shoes?" I say. Discord looks at her and gives her his best Puppy dog eyes, which was literally to turn his face into puppy's face.
She tries to say something against that and just stammers a bit before sighing and nodding. "If you're willing to stay here in Ponyville with me, and willing to let the Princesses put an Enchantment on the Elements of Harmony to make sure you won't touch them, I'll let you stay at my house for as long as you want, hell I'll even hang out with you for as long as you want, within reason of course. I'm not about to stay in my house all day." I say as I stick my hand out to him. "Savvy?"
He seems to think about it for a little while. "Oh, What the heck, why not? I'd rather have someone as powerful as you on my side anyway, I can feel your power practically radiating off of you." He says as he shakes my hand. He snaps his fingers and both of the Princesses appear beside us. I take another sip of my tea, this time a mint tea, and let him explain whats going on. "Celly, Lulu! It's so great to see the both of you again! It's been so long since we've last seen each other! How've you been?" He asks as he reclines further into the therapist's bed.
"What is your game Discord? Why have you brought us here, and why is Arthur with you?" Celestia calmly inquires. I can see that she's about to attack him, so I stand up and get between the two of them.
"I would like it if you didn't attack my new roommate. He's agreed to let you guys enchant the Element's to make sure he can't touch them, as long as you let him live here in Ponyville with me so he can learn the; and I fucking hate the fact that I'm going to use these words in a sentence; "Magic of Friendship". God, just saying that gives me indigestion." I say as I pound my fist on my chest twice before letting out a burp.
The two sisters look stunned and then their faces turn into distrust. "What is your game Arthur, I thought you said you wouldn't harm my subjects?" Celestia threateningly asks as her hand glows with power. Luna's hand glows with some prepared spell.
I take a calm sip of my tea, "Green tea, 3-2. The both of you should know by now that if I wanted to I could level this entire continent and leave right? Has anything he's done so far actually hurt anyone? So far, I see a kids dream going on, Cotton Candy clouds, Chocolate milk rain, flying fish, Marshmallow Mountains, and a whole bunch of other shit. It's like you think he's going to haul off and murder everyone. I don't think he'll do it, do you?" I ask as I stand up from my chair and look at the two tall women.
The two women think about it and they both come to a conclusion, "He'll be your responsibility, you do know this right?" Celestia asks.
"Sister are you sure you wish to do this, dost thou remember what happened last time?" Luna asks.
"Yes, and it was exactly like this last time as well. If we had handled this rationally maybe we could have avoided such trivial issues such as this. I must ask though, why would you let him into your home?" Celestia inquires.
I turn to Discord and shrug. "I don't really know or care. Maybe it's because I know what it's like to be the only one of my kind in a world full of strangers, maybe it's the fact that he knows where I came from." I take another sip of my tea, "4-2, Step up your game Disc-Jockey, I'm gonna win." I say as I place another domino on the table.
He grimaces and snaps his finger, causing the world around us to turn back to normal. The chair I was sitting on turns into a normal tree stump, while the table in front of us turns into a bush, causing the dominos to fall into it. "You win. I'll give up and be your roommate. I've been quite bored for the past few thousand years, and this is the only way I'll be able to come out of this situation on top. Between the Princesses, the Elements, and yourself I can't really fight against you. You Displaced characters certainly make things more interesting, at least when you're on the good side. Those evil Displaced characters are genuine; pardon my french for the moment; TĂȘtes de Merde." He says.
"So, shall we go find a place to put my stuff?" he asks as he snaps causing furniture to show up next to him.
I motion for him to follow me. "I'm just gonna buy another house, one with multiple rooms this time. I'll probably just rent the one I have now out to someone so I can make money off of it." I say as I see him kick his sofa into a suitcase and he picks it up and follows me.
Catching up with me he asks, "Why did you go so far for me? You know the future just like I do, I need to betray them to help imprison Tirek, so I have to ask. Why did you do this?"
"So you can have a life outside of the stone, even if it's for a little while. Besides, I should be able to outright beat the guy. He's nowhere near as strong as half of the villains from One Piece. Do you know what One Piece is?" I ask. He shakes his head no and I almost trip. "You don't know what One Piece is, but you can see through the fourth wall!? Bitch, when we get our own place just make us a TV that will show my memories, I'll make a weeb out of you in no time." I say as I throw my arm over his shoulders. We walk towards City Hall, ready to start our new lives as roommates.
(Timeskip)
"YOHOHOHO~ YO HO HO HOOOOO!" We both sing as Brook plays Binks' Sake. I officially love having Discord as a friend, being able to relive my old life is kind of awesome.
