Discord laid back in the grass, staring up at clouds. He pointed up.
"That one's a rabbit."
With a snap of his finger, the cloud shifted its shape until it took the form of a rabbit. And then it started to hop across the sky.
Derpy giggled and pointed to another cloud. "That one looks like... A dragon!"
Discord tensed up as a cloud dragon began to form. He relaxed though as he realized it wasn't moving. His daughter could do some amazing things, but luckily she couldn't do everything he could.
It didn't seem to matter to Derpy. She was staring at the cloud dragon, her creation, in amazement. "Cool!"
Discord sighed. "Indeed it is."
They were silent for a moment. Discord couldn't help but think the day was perfect.
Derpy had something on her mind though.
"Could I ask you something?"
The draconequus could sense the reluctance in the question. He glanced at Derpy. "Sure."
"Why were you ever bad?"
He sat up, turning to the pegasus. "What?"
"Why were you bad before?"
He stared at her for several seconds. And she stared back, waiting.
"Well... That's just who I am. I'm the Spirit of Chaos."
"You're not now."
She smiled at him and put a hoof on his knee. "I like you a lot. So you can't be bad."
Discord smiled at such a naive statement. And yet he could tell she believed it.
"It's true I don't cause as much trouble as I used to."
"Why did you cause trouble?"
"It's just how I was born."
"Is that the truth?"
"I...I'm not sure."
A sigh escaped him as he was forced to think back on his early years. He had been a very practiced prankster. He had done what he wanted, when he wanted. And nopony could stop him. That was until Celestia and Luna had shown up to challenge his power.
"Ponies have always considered me a monster. I guess after a while even I started believing it. So I acted like a monster."
"I don't think you're a monster."
He smiled at his daughter. "Thanks."
"It's true! You're not a monster! My mother knew it and I know it too."
Discord looked down at Derpy. She looked just like Startail. Right down to the eyes. Those beautiful eyes that didn't show fear or anger. All they were capable of showing was love.
He put an arm around her and pulled her close. "If you're saying it, then it must be true."
"It is.... Love you Dad."
A single tear was rolling down Discord's cheek. "Love you too."
They laid back in the grass and looked at the clouds. Derpy smiled and pointed. "Look! A unicorn!"
And then Twilight fell out of the sky.
2778822 OH MY GOD THAT COMMENT!!!
2778822 no that would be an Alicorn
2778864 Chaos cares not for the boundaries of time and space.
2778892, chaos cares for the boundaries of time and space. They make a very delectable soup when mixed with parsnips and horseradish.
2778944 As well, the big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff is good for shooting hoops with
2778944 finally someone else who gets it!
2778984 im sorry, i cant think of anything funny to add. my brain has the dumb
2779146 Brain is no longer fun? get a new brain!

2779225 no that makes to much sense. that is obviously why Celestia did it
2779237 you, my friend, just read what happens when bored bronies converse, also know as crazy shiet
2779237 We are just here to spice up your comments
2779237
IKR?! Of course my reaction was more like

Dabuq is dis shit?
2779217 The blowing of the mind has been doubled!
2779237 Just cause it doesn't make sense doesn't mean it ain't true... In fact in this case it makes it even more true

Not even Discord can explain why Discord was evil.
That actually sounds legit. Short chapter, but good all the same.

Really? You REALLY want to do that? Setting aside the fact that I'm converted, I've bested SLENDERMANE in SEVERAL sparring matches, I can tear a hole in the space-time continuum with my knife, and I'm faster on the ground than anypony I know, even Rainbow Dash. So, if you REALLY want to try that, I hope you have a cleanup guide in case Cthulu fails. Because NOPONY threatens to send an eldrich abomination anywhere NEAR me or my home. NOPONY!
Awww. Now then, I am really enjoying your story but do you think you could maybe get the plot moving soon?
2780921 i wouldnt send him at you, i would have him eat my mind or something so i can live a life blissfully unaware of the torments of my subconsious.
2780971
You can make it through all that WITHOUT him eating your mind. After all, imagine how I feel every day, with all I've done
2780988 I-DE-A! Let us invoke the powers that be and summon Her Majesty Princess Luna to restore our minds. as princess of dreams she's got to have some power over the psycologic well being of her subjects. and tia knows that bronies make up the majority of her fanbase.
2781278
Alright, you go ahead. However, I'm kind of already taking the hard route: Seeking redemption. I'm putting my "talents" to use in Luna's Night Guard as an assassin. Oh, I'm also the captain.
2781314>>2779388 You two are just weird.
2781343
And we're loving every second of it
2781378 ok i have to join in]
what about jane the killer???
2781522
((OOC: Since this is ponified, it's Jane the Pony. Just so you know ))
She's currently recovering in Diov's hospital in the Everfree Forest. She's got a tracking chip on her, and her room is top security. She'll be released once Diov and I decide that there's no chance of her going "rogue" again ((OOC: "Going rogue" refers to a reformed Creepypasta, such as myself, once again taking part in our unwelcome habits. Ex. Me killing everypony, Jane hunting me down to kill me.))
2781966 brb gonna break her out cause she is awesome
2779237 what is there not to understand? Sure the soup is a bit coconutty in flavor but space&time boundary soup with parsnips and horseradish is quite the delicacy. Much better than mango & flowerpot chutney but not by too great a margin.
2781993
... I wouldn't do that if I were you... I'll just say this much: Diov has the power to kill me. Permanently
2782236 how about i keep her away from you and if you get into trouble she kills you
I've been kinda wondering what happened to Dinky...
She isn't Derpy's daughter in this story, is she?
Cause most stories I read usually have Dinky as her daughter, kinda became a universal thing I guess.
Wait...
What if Derpy CREATED her daughter with chaos!!! O_O
It all makes sense now!
2782479
Um, no. And I don't think I'll get into trouble, at least in the sense you're thinking. Reason being that I'm the captain of the Lunar Guard, as well as their best assassin
2782636by trouble i mean go cucu and go back to killing everyone in there sleep
2782097 definately better than a watermelon and tennis shoe sundae
2783503
Dat empathy
Came for the story, stayed for the comments
And then a unicorn fell on Discord
2783664 That sundae does have its merits but honestly comparing those two is like comparing a library book salad to a grape jelly BLT holding the mayo.
2784910 ...good point. meh, never said i was a good cook. just give me some s'ghettis and ill be good
2782636 Best assassin, bah!
You didn't even realize that drink you just had contained the second half of the poison I administered to you back in 2003 when you were interning at the manure factory in Cloppingston!
2781314 Biologists are the best assassins. We know how to make it look perfectly natural. You can find the cause and it won't matter, because there's no way to prove it was anything but a natural illness.
