“Why can’t I fly already?” Scootaloo stared longingly up at the sky.
Young Scootaloo wants to fly more than anything. What happens when a stranger turns up who just might have all the answers?
(I have no idea if Scoots is in character, but I tried my best)
Wow, you write for discord really well. Like, REALLY well. His speech patterns are nearly perfect. Scootaloo seems really n character for me, but I can't really tell as I didn't pay attention to her in the show that much.
Grammar score is 10/10, but the way
I love stories where discord is going out of his way to be nice. Stories where he turns evil again and takes over equestria really bother me.
In conclusion? This was a great read! Keep up the good work!
For the first time you've written for Scoots, you did a good job of that.
Keep up the good work because you did keep her in character.
nice job
An actually unexpected Discord reveal!
And in a really adorable story, too! I think everyone was really well in character, actually.
It's time to try defying gravity.
I think I'll try defying gravity.
And you can't pull me down.
Personally, I prefer Vortex as an alias for pony Discord. But that's just me.
For this story, Whirlwind does imply a more gentle side to him, so I've got to give you credit for pulling this off well.
Anyway, thanks for writing!

Well after reading bride of discord I know discord could turn into a grey stallion so when I read about the grey stallion and saw the pause I realise quickly that the grey stallion was discord and I wasn't really surprise when the big "unveiling" of discord came at the end.
But over all it was an amazing story and I really liked it
4759290 Thanks so much. Discord is my personal favorite character (not that you can tell looking at my page ) so I'm glad I'm able to make his speech so good.
I like to think of Discord as that anonymous helper who'd deny everything if asked.
Personally I think he has that ability to go evil if he has the right incentive, but he could never be the way he was because of Fluttershy.
I'm really glad you liked my story.
4759471 I was going for that, so I'm glad I managed it.
Oh thank you. I'm glad you like it.
4759299 I'm really happy that I managed it. She's probably my favorite filly.
4761580 You have a good taste in favorite fillies.
4759374 Thank you
4759516 I'm through accepting limits
'cos someone said they're so
Some things I cannot change
But 'till I try I'll never know
I just realized how much that song fits her now. I'm glad someone picked up on the song.
4759846 Ooh yeah that's a really good name. I could only think of Whirlwind and Twister, and Whirlwind wasn't an actual Pegasus' name already. Maybe he has several aliases? I wouldn't put it past him.
I think we both have Fluttershy to thank for that. I personally think that she's had more of an influence on him than he's willing to admit.
Thanks for commenting.
4759861 I've never read that story. I was going by the season finale for his appearance. Good spotting though, I must admit that's pretty clever. I was wondering if anyone would pick up on that.
I'm glad you liked it.
Very cute! I like your Discord...I was gonna gush more, but all my comments have been made, so...ya, well done.
4763594 I'm really glad you like it.

For all we know, Discord probably INVENTED the concept of multiple aliases.
And I definitely agree with you about Fluttershy having more influence than he would care to admit, even though it seems like he does still admit it a little, if you ask me.
4765797 He's certainly been around long enough - so why not? I actually think he has aliases for each pony species (I was thinking about it this morning) but what I came up with was: Vortex is a Unicorn, Whirlwind is a Pegasus, Nova/Supernova is an Alicorn, and I'm unsure about his Earth Pony form - maybe Twister?
I agree. He does like admitting she had a positive influence on him. Just not when he's trying to act like she hasn't.
4765837
Hmm... I'm not sure if I can really come up with anything good for an Earth Pony alias, but maybe this is a decent suggestion: Dr. Ocsid. [discO .rD]
(Just something from either a fan-fic or fan-art I saw a little while ago...)
4765934 Ooh I like that one. What about something Chaosy... Like Calamity, or even Set. (the Egyptian God of Chaos) Or maybe he doesn't have one, just to mess with us.
4765947
Oh, I so wish I would've thought about Calamity. That fits so well. Then again, it would be just like him to mess with us by not having an alias...
4765982 Okay so his aliases so far are:
Discord - Usual Form
Calamity - Earth Pony
Whirlwind - Pegasus
Vortex - Unicorn
Supernova - Alicorn
I wonder what would happen if his aliases had a conversation together? Because we know Whirlwind's the nice one and I'm not sure about Vortex but I think he'd be the cheeky, smug one. Maybe Calamity is always "accidentally-on-purpose" messing stuff up and Supernova is the "Alicorn Princess" of practical jokes.
4766086
...I might just have found inspiration for an idea to try my hand at writing.
No guarantee, though...
Now I want to give him aliases for as many species as I can think of, but so far all I have to add to that list is Shift for a Changeling alias...
4766169 I was thinking of a dragon alias but I'm not sure of the name. Maybe Eon since he's been around forever? And what about a Timberwolf? Maybe Noble Fir (Because I saw it was a tree name and thought "It's just like Discord to name himself something like that" )
4766235
I'm not sure about a dragon alias either. Eon is pretty good, but the best I can come up with is Puff, because I can see Discord referencing stuff like that. As far as a Timberwolf goes, I've got nothing aside from a somewhat cliche Fluffy, so let's keep it Noble Fir. And I just came up with his griffin alias - Sphinx, because why not? Do you think that fits?
Also, I apologize for going off on a tangent and somewhat spamming your story's comment section, but this conversation has been rather enjoyable.
4766310 Yeah Sphinx works. I really like it...
I agree. It's a fun topic... I sent you a PM...
I believe everypony here wasin character and Discord at the end. He does have a heart you know, he's just too shy to admit it.
Fav and upvote for you!
4771567 I'm glad everyone was in character. I also agree about Discord. His ego gets in the way of his kindness.
Thanks so much. For the watch too.
