Hey, you! Yeah, you! The guy reading reading this right now! No, not that guy! You!

How are you liking Season Four thus far? Is it meeting your expectations, or do you find yourself disappointed? Either way, I've got a treat for you.

See, up until now, we've been telling the stories that we want you to hear. However, I've managed to pull a few strings (ie. I Pinkie Promised Fluttershy that I'd clean up afterwards), and have made this episode interactive! That means you fine folks in the audience get to control what happens in the story! Sound fun?

If yes, great! Just stick around after the opening credits, and we'll get started. If no, well, I thought it was a good idea.

After getting a taste of his own medicine from Lord Tirek, Discord has decided to take his reformation a bit more seriously. Sure, he has magic and friendship again, but it's clearly not enough to warrant his own throne in Twilight's fancy new castle. In order to earn the coveted throne, he figures that he has to be the best friend he can be.

While scrolling through the Friendship Journal for inspiration and pointers, an epiphany hits him. Since he was reformed, he has never made an honest attempt to make new friends by himself. As the first step on this new journey, he decides to rectify that. And who better to befriend than the other ponies that provided the keys to the chest? It's the perfect plan!

Too bad he doesn't really know what he's doing. Yeah, despite understanding empathy, Discord still has a lot to learn about friendship.

Have you wondered why Lord Tirek was attacking trees?

A young alicorn discovers an odd creature in the forest. One thing leads to another, and the two fall in love, but is this love all it truly seems?

((CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS FROM THE JOURNAL OF THE TWO SISTERS.))

Discord has been turned to stone by the power of the Elements of Harmony, but his consciousness has been left uneffected. Now powerless, he can only observe the events around him and think on his past life.

This story is a sequel to Diary of a Silent Tyrant

It's funny what an idle slip of the tongue can lead to. When Discord makes an off-hand comment to Fluttershy about the mental diary he kept when encased in stone, she begs him to continue it. She says it will be "therapeutic", but he's sure it'll be a real bore. But who can resist those puppy-dog eyes and a bribe of fresh cookies? Grudgingly, he takes up a pencil to document his thoughts and experiences in his new life. A life among his old enemies. A life he never wanted.

Ever since the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony had released Discord from his stoney prison, Fluttershy had gone out of her way to make him feel welcome. It was something Discord had taken for granted, enjoying the attention she gave him. When the opportunity arose to fully embrace his chaotic nature once more, he took it gleefully, despite the fact that it meant the betrayal of his friend. He eventually saw the error of his way and received forgiveness, and at first all was well, but on returning home, and with time to think a new emotion is stirring deep within his chaotic heart.

Sometimes you have to laugh, so you don't have to cry. Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich may have more in common than they thought, including Ponyacci, the greatest clown in all of Equestria. But when Pinkie Sense and Cheesy Sense combine, it sends them on a journey to throw the worst party of their lives.

After the defeat of Tirek, Equestria is safe once more, but Luna can sense that her sister is troubled. When Celestia retreats to the starry realm of ascension in order to look upon the past, Luna joins her to discover what is bothering her.

When Twilight was a filly, she studied non-stop. Spells, books, and Princess Celestia took up all of her spare time. She never had any real friends when she was younger.
...Except Spike, that is. This story is about their first day together and the ups and downs of it.
