    Following the events of "In Search of the Sun", Discord has returned, seeking citizenship in Equestria. However, he has entered a rather strange condition in the contract...

    It is highly advised that you read "In Search of the Sun" first!

    If you missed it, here's the skinny: Celestia gets sick, Twilight and the elements (+ Spike) have to travel with Discord to get a cure, ????, Celestia gets better, Discord is set free, and everypony lives happily ever blah blah blah! You're now up to speed, but you're still missing a lot of dynamic!

    edit: This story is now has a follow-up, the slice-of-life/comedy fic A Normal Day!

    This is going to be great! I loved "In Search of the Sun," so I'm eager to see the rest of this. I guess Discord is into younger women. Who knew? And Spike DID have some pretty good points...

    Haha, Discord is such a troll (that is if he isn't actually serious about the date, personally I think he's just doing it to troll them. Right?)

    Whatever, I'll get my answers in chapter 2, which I highly anticipate considering how great "in search of the sun" was.

    And so it was by the hand of CosmicWaltz

    Did the immortal Discord passed through

    the gates of Equestria and into legend!

    I have to say, that this fist chapter didn't disappoint me in a single line nor a single word.

    I can't wait to see this updated, and until then:

    Great job, sir! Well done. :ajsmug:

    I can't wait for the scene where Twilight tries to sneak back into the library after her date with Discord.

    Spike sits in the darkness, waiting for her: "And where do you come from at this hour? Your curfew was 2 hours ago, young lady!"

    reflect - reflects (or maybe it should stay...)

    shapeshifting - shape shifting

    est - est.

    and that should be about it i suppose :twilightblush:

    >>984574

    Owlowicious has been corrected, and I'm not sure why "reflect" didn't have the "ed" on the end. It said "reflected" in both the original text file and on my dA post. :twilightoops:

    The others, not so much. Reinaissance is intentional, playing on the equine-related puns from the show, shapeshifting is accepted as a single word, unhyphenated, and id est is latin for "that is", extended from the abbreviation "i.e.", and is used to specify.

    Thanks for pointing out the name and error though. Not sure where I picked up the other spelling. :rainbowhuh:

    Aaaaand Spike's philosophical musings go down the drain... poor kid.

    I've read the previous story and found it rather nice. This one has gotten me interested in it already. Hope to see more of it soon.

    Its just strange, Discord didn't request a date with Celestia. But he is chaos incarnate so I guess its best to leave how he works to the author. XD

    *One pony in the restaurant was not offended in the least.  A grey Earth pony with a messy white mane and the oddest green-lensed goggles, dressed in a fancy lab coat and tie grinned widely as the chaos spirit and his date exited.  Helix was his name and mad science his game.*  Ahhh, I see what ploy you have in mind, Lord Discord.  Excellent indeed.  I'd expect nothing less from you.  :trollestia:

    Well that was both hilarious and epic. This and "in search of the sun" are my favourite discord fics ever. And also pretty high up there in the top ten (And I've read alot of fanfiction, I'd estimate over 30 millions words worth including what I've read before Fimfiction).

    Finally got around to this. Great fun was had.


    Chapter 2:

    Her fabulous friend swooned over the idea of one day dining at this establishment, but even her connections weren't not enough.

    were

    In a pulse of magic, she lifted each occupant of the restaurant, letting the ponies kick fruitless in the air for a second before they realize their actions no longer carried them forward.

    realized

    The place setting stared back intimidatingly, an array of similarly different utensils spread out to either side of a plate.

    That doesn't really convey the message it's supposed to. "Slightly different", or "similar yet different" would work better.

    What you do is right click the image and click copy image url.  Then you put the url in an email and send it to yourself.  Open the email on your touch and copy the url.  Finally, go here, click the insert image button and paste the url into the box.  And there you go.  If you put a bunch of them in one email you can have a complete library of emoticons ready for use.  Just double click the button to open up the recently used apps section at the bottom of your screen and you can jump back and forth pretty quickly.

    And, yeah, perhaps. I'm hoping it's the imagination part that's intimidating and not me. :applejackconfused: How weird would that be? The "bad boy" of the fanfic writers? Yep, that's totally me. Filled with such unfettered self-righteousness and vitriolic hatred of all that tries to approach me that I just now casually let two spiders that fell on my face while in bed go free outside. :rainbowlaugh: Although, on a positive, maybe I'm encouraging others not to imitate or expand my works but to create from scratch their own!

THEN she will start disguising as a normal pony to stop Twilight and Discord from dating further hoping she can save Twilight from joining the God of Disharmony against her(which is most unlikely to happen).  Well that's what I think.

    This was great! Not only that this was a 100% worthful sequel, comparing to the awesome work of 'In Search of the Sun', but also a great pre-quel to a Discord-is-a-ponyville-citizen-universe. On the one hand I am satisfied by that, but on the other I think that someone really has to write the daily adventures of this universe down.
