you gotta change that short description to say '... the one behind it all.'
for reasons

(stares for a long, long,, LONG time)……..Holy shite! Someone else actually has a similar headcanon to me, that Discord manipulated everything!? Hot damn! I was in a sour mood, but now I can't stop smiling! A thousand thanks and a thousand likes!(if I could)

Not even overreacting on my part, I genuinely loved this. Thank you, my fellow Discordian.

Happy I could help to improve your day! Hail Discordia! :raritywink:

. . . . . . Damn, you’re right. :rainbowlaugh:

You're not the only one, Tricksters teach.

Good job Edge. And stop this stupid shit about not being a good writer. Of course your not. All writers are hacks. Good writers don't exist. Instead, we play the long con and keep bringing in the suckers. And the better we get, the more we see the trick and our mistakes pulling it off. And you have gotten very "good" at the trick. Looking forward to what you write next.

Humility is simply my way, my friend. :raritywink: Thank you for reading, and I’ll be working on some more soon!

Just don't confuse humility with lack of confidence. That will hurt muse, and we don't want that.

A lovely story, thank you for writing it.

This is pretty much how I interpreted Discord and his actions throughout the series. Unlike other villains, he never really hurts anyone outright, only spreading chaos.

Ever since watching Twilight’s Kingdom for the first time, I kept expecting Discord to reveal that he had been tricking Tirek through the whole thing, but he never did. I got to thinking and, as the series progressed, I saw more and more times where it seemed likely the he was really doing everything he could to help Twilight and her friends, even when he seemed to be harming them. Just my belief, but I like it and I’mma stick to it. :)

Oh, no, we do not! But don’t worry, man. Humility and Self-Confidence are pretty much working together in me, now days. They’ve come to an “Understanding”, shall we say. Simply put, I do not consider myself to be a “Good Writer” . . . But that doesn’t mean I count myself a “Bad Writer”, either. I’m better than a lot, but not the best by a long shot, which is pretty much exactly where I want to be. :raritywink:

While that might often be the case, I would say you are perhaps missing the point of the story. Discord did bad things with good intentions, but in this case everything worked out, in the end.

...of course, nothing ever truly ends... :raritywink: 🤡

Please permit my pointing out one typo:

“I’m much old than you know, Celestia.

I think you meant older, yes?

A beautiful story, honoring the mirrorlike role of clowns and tricksters throughout history. I loved it. :twilightsmile:
