(He/They) Sometimes you just want to hear your favorite story told a little different

Discord lives in a world where the Pegasi control the weather, the Earth Ponies make plants grow, and the Unicorns even control the very sun and moon.

Everything is controlled by ponies. Everything is orderly.

There is no chaos.

And that is a problem.

I'm guessing the colt Twi watched die was Spike?

Interesting premise.

This was a neat little piece. The quick turn around in tone from Discord at the end was a bit weird, but otherwise it was pretty good

I’m not done reading the chapter but I expect this to go on the featured page soon. Perhaps sometime early afternoon?
EDIT: looks like I was wrong, it goes up now instead of in the afternoon!

It's worse than he thought. Mentos and Coke isn't even a chemical reaction. It's purely physical.

Well that was simply lovely, you write a very good Discord.

And wherever did you find that cover art, I've been looking all over for that!

if that is the case then would it make sense for the next logical leap for this kind of effect to be something more frightening. Perhaps children stop getting a mix of dna from both parents and insted become a clone of one or the other

This is a thoroughly interesting premise and I would love to see what else might have changed due to Twilight's hermitage. I hope you continue this story.

This is brilliant.

"Cooties! Of course, colts like him had cooties! Then again, she probably already caught them by now. Oh well, can't get more cooties if you already have them, right? Grabbing the colt’s hoof, she pulled herself up." -IsakeiAnon

Lovely stuff... though bringing up the chemical reaction issue would definitely be a persuasive argument. You know what's a very complex chemical reaction that doesn't deal well with needing constant external stimuli to keep itself going? Life. Twilight was on track to causing omnicide outside of the Everfree and never even knowing it.

But that's neither here nor there. This is a lovely role swap, and Pinkie does work very well indeed. Thank you for it and best of luck in the judging.

ARRRGH

She was pink and Earth Pony looking, wearing her own safety goggles as well as a disgruntled expression.

Not inaccurate, but I think there is a color missing.
Or that's intended.
Edit: And going by what I read, the later seems even more likely

Oye, conozco ese, es del nuevo fic de PotrancaAnon en la era de Sunset jaja

Muy probable, el fue el primer y mejor amigo de la pony morada, además de que ella le dio la vida accidentalmente por su magia, es bastante irónico que ella accidentalmente se la quito también por su magia, bastante triste pero es una ironía digna de una novela

Uh, not to be rude, but is it possible for you to translate that into English?

I want to read more about this universe!

Discord was cut off by a pink mission crashing into his chest.

Did you mean missile?

Dadcord and Pinkie-ling are cute. :pinkiehappy:

Blast, you think you can write one story without Pinkie in it?

Why in the world would you ever want to do that?

Complete

:fluttershbad:

“thank you for making me happy. I hope you can be happy, too, someday.”

my heart, you hurt my heart

I like this but all of the conflict could have been avoided by “hey the world is becoming so orderly chemical reactions are starting to not work”

Pony Discord with his adopted Ponkaling daughter! Nice. :pinkiehappy:

Ok

Very likely, he was the first and best friend of the purple pony, in addition to the fact that she accidentally gave him life by her magic, it is quite ironic that she accidentally took it from him also by her magic, quite sad but it is an irony worthy of a novel

IF THIS DOESN'T OR DIDN'T WIN THE CONTEST IM GOING TO FREAKING SCREAM!!!:flutterrage:..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
..I really loved this story (。^▽^):heart::twilightblush:

Man, I don't know if you have this planned, but a set of shorts where twilight slllowly starts reintegrating would be fantastic

Pretty good, also who is that strapping hunk of a stallion.

Came because it was a contest entry and Unicorn Discord is cool! Woah, surprise Twilight and surprise Pinkie species!

Surprise sadness at the middle end there! But things seem to be changing, hehe, for the better!

Pinkie blinked up at her. “Oh my gosh. You can’t just ask somepony why they’re black.

Discord face hoofed.

I'd comment on this directly, but I can't top Discord's own response to it. :rainbowlaugh:

This was a nice story, I can see why it's been tracking so high in the feature box for so long now. :twilightsmile: Best of luck in the contest!

Now this is something that I'd love to see having a sequel. Very interesting world.

I'd love for this to be a series.

"And because of that life will soon stop functioning, and everyone will die"

Man, I always knew there was something wrong with equestria, the scariest place of all is the most normal one

A small part of my brain: Blast, you think you can write one story without Pinkie in it? This story would work just as well with literally any other character playing the changeling role.

Every other part of my brain in unison: PINKIE PINKIE PINKIE PINKIE!

Me:I can write a Too Many Pinkies story without a Pinkie being one of the MCs, right?

Also me & a Pinkie clone:FUN! FUN! FUN! FUN!

Sorry, I had to do it.

That was a good story.

I am really hoping for a sequel to this

If you ever feel like returning to this story, please do.
: )

Nice story. :twilightsmile:

So from the sounds of it, Twilight liked chaos at some point but was traumatized by the death of her friend.
