As Fluttershy would tell anypony who asked, not that any ever did, getting to Discord's home wasn't as easy as a hop, skip, and a jump, into the Chaos Dimension. His home had an annoying tendency to float anywhere and everywhere all the time.

Which made dropping by for tea like Fluttershy did difficult, to say the least. She had tried to make him hold it still more than once, but he had said he couldn't. Or wouldn't. It was hard to tell with him.

So when someone knocked on his door one fine day, or as fine as it ever was in this realm, Discord was naturally curious as to who it could be. He didn't have anyone supposed to visit today.

Or maybe he did, and his calendar was wrong. It wouldn't be the first time either. "Who is it?" He singsonged in his most welcoming tone.

"Come and find out," another voice answered. Discord grinned at who it was. Oh, how he had looked forward to this day. His eyes twinkling, he slinked over to the front door and pulled it open.

"Princess Twilight! What an unexpected surprise. Come to see daddy Discord? Did Sunbutt and Moonbutt's retirement finally drive you up the wall?" He asked with a grin.

Sure enough, Twilight Sparkle was on his doorstep. She too was grinning, but at what, he had no idea. "Something did drive me up the wall. Can I come in? Or are we going to stand out here all day?"

Discord's grin grew wider. "Oh, I don't know. The weather this time of year is great I hear. But since you insist. Welcome to my humble abode," he said as he made to push her inside.

Only for his hands and full body to pass right through her, and he fell to the ground with a thud, one that sounded like a whippy cushion.

Twilight looked back, her grin still growing. "I'll let myself in then." With that, she walked forward. Discord's body blocking the door was no problem as she passed right through it like it was nothing.

Discord shivered as she did, but not from any sense of cold. The feeling when she had passed through him had been like nothing he had ever felt before, but he knew it all the same, and he finally knew who she really was.

He coiled himself around so he soon faced facing with Twilight. "Oh. It's you. What do you want? Come to stick your nose in another universe you never planned to?"

Cosmos stopped smiling at this. "I literally unmade you in one universe, Discord. Keep it up, and you'll be begging for the Elements of Harmony." Her smile came back. "Or should I give Grogar's Bewitching Bell to Chrysalis and Tirek and let them handle you? The three of you deserve each other."

Discord ground his teeth. "You wouldn't."

Cosmos raised an eyebrow. "Would I? Or would you rather I tell Equestria about how King Sombra really came back? What you're doing with the Legion of Doom? What would Fluttershy say?"

Discord blanched. That last one hit home harder than he once thought it would. "It's for Twilight's own good. She's isn't ready. Celestia and Luna didn't see that until it was almost too late."

Cosmos laughed. "You have no right to decide what's best for Twilight. You two barely get along as it is. She only puts up with you for Fluttershy and Spike's sake."

Discord glared at her. "I have more right than you do. What do you even care anyway? You never cared about this universe before you fixed Cheeselegs's little clone mishap."

Before he could say more though, he was flung against the far wall and held there with magic he couldn't break free from, no matter how hard he tried. His glare grew as Cosmos walked up to him.

"I sometimes wonder why I don't throw you to the Four Kings and be done with you forever. Let's see how you handle Chaos that would literally make your head spin. If you could even keep it," she said evenly.

Discord knew she wasn't bluffing. Equestria may have little to no knowledge of the multiverse, but that did not mean Discord didn't. He knew of plenty of other realms that would eat Equus for breakfast. The Chaos she spoke of? He tried not to even think about it.

At his worst, he had never been like that. Oh sure, some could say he and the Changer of Ways had a lot in common with how they liked to constantly change things. But it was a flimsy comparison at best. Let alone any comparison with the Grandfather, the Dark Prince, or the Blood God.

He slumped against the wall. "Fine, you made your point Cosmicbutt. But someone needs to make sure Princess Twilight is ready when the time comes. Celestia and Luna won't be sticking around much longer."

Cosmos nodded, letting go of her magic holding him against the wall. "I know. But I have faith that she will be ready when the time comes for her to take the throne of Equestria. And she won't be alone."

Discord rolled her eyes. "Her friends won't take any offer to be made alicorns. Even if Twilight found a way to make them all one like her. I asked them about it when we did all those fun things during her Book-sort Cation."

Cosmos nodded, not shocked honestly. "Spike will be with her for a long time, and she will always have Celestia, Luna, Cadance, and Flurry Heart." Her smile returned. "And one more as well. Unless she is more stupid than I thought she was."

Discord gave her a look. He had an idea of who she was talking about. "Do you really think Equestria will be happy when they find out where her clone came from? Look what happened with Zecora, and she was normal."

Cosmos rolled her eyes. "The thing with Zecora disgusts me to no end. Even if Ponyville had never seen a zebra, they should know about her kind. She is a pony as well. I plan to talk with Celestia about that at some point. Among other things."

Discord grinned like a maniac at the very idea of Celestia getting chewed out by anypony. "I'll be sure to bring the popcorn!"

Cosmos giggled as she made her way to the door. "Please do. It's going to be a very fun day when I get around to that. But for now, I want to see how the School of Friendship handles two Twilight Sparkles."

Author's Note

Just something I felt that needed to be tied up after the last chapter. Safe to say, Celestia will be getting chewed out over her mishandling of basically everything from the show.

To clear one thing up. The Four Kings is a title given to Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh, and Tzeentch, as a whole, from the Warhammer franchise. Each has its own set of titles.

And then the four of them as a whole have a whole slew of titles. Discord being a being of chaos, as boring as Equestria's is, knows all about them.
