Twilight discovers Discord in-hiding - which is strange enough - but the discussion they have causes her to consider the particulars of true harmony, and whether or not a being such as he should be allowed to live freely to retain his part in it.

The descent into madness is normally supposed to be uncomfortable, if common opinion is to be trusted. I'm also pretty sure it's suppose to take a while, hence the whole "descent into madness" idea, as opposed to "plummeting at high speed into madness." Well, neither of those things apply to me, and i'm pretty sure I just went crazy. I mean, I always thought I was crazy in that creepy loser sort of way, but this goes a little beyond that.

See, i've got Discord in my house all of a sudden. And in the world of sane people, cartoon kid's show villains aren't suppose to just arrive in your house. They aren't supposed to talk to you. They aren't supposed to tear dimensional gaps in your house. And they, most of all, are not supposed to occasionally want to cuddle.

Guess I failed at going insane. Bummer.

Princess Cadance noticed how lonely Princess Celestia seemed on Hearts and Hooves Day.

She decided to send a small love spell her way, as motivation to help her find a special somepony, even if it's just for a day.

Cadance immediately regretted it upon finding out who it was.

I've never read "My little Dashie". I don't know what it's about, aside from people going emo over it. You don't have to believe me, but it's the truth. I like to experiment and make weird things that might overlap with what already exists. A consequence of time.

Mathews Fore is a simple man. He has a decent job with decent pay. A rather nice little house at the end of the road. A "dead-end" if you will. The only problem? He hates lack of security, although everyone in his neighborhood has a tendency to watch the actions of eachother, so no theft has gone unpunished...by them. Due to his fears of security, he erected a very tall fence around his house that he further covered with a green cover, so nobody can see through it. His yard is pretty huge in itself.

However, he starts to feel lonely. He doesn't want a woman, nor is he gay, so he doesn't want a man. He just wants something to hug. He doesn't want a pet, but he doesn't want to adopt a kid either. He just wants something adorable to hug and kiss on the forehead. Something intelligent. But what? One night, there was the announcement of a meteor shower, so Mathews decides to take his chances and wish upon a star, just like in his childhood stories.
He gets what he wants, but is it really worth it?

[Ink Heart has a very tragic talent, She can make her drawings come to life. With Ink and quill, monsters are born from her strokes across the paper.
After the death of her parents at the hands of her own creations, Ink heart makes a promise to herself, and everpony harmed: that she would never draw again. But one cannot simply ignore their passion.

With such a strong urge to do what she should not, Ink heart's mind and heart begin to change, and become easy pray for the spirit of chaos trapped in stone.

Discord sees her as his chance to escape a third time, all he needs to do is get her to draw him.

A dark story about a desperate mare's fall into madness and her hoof in Discords rise to power.]

After GLaDOS is uploaded into a potato battery, Wheatley humiliates the AI even further by uploading her into a project that was abandoned by Aperture a long time ago. In the blink of an eye, she finds herself in a deformed body of flesh and bone that resembles an equine, and is just as powerless as one too. It comes with all of its needs and bodily functions as well. To make matters worse, she's trapped in a land full of insufferable creatures that just want to make 'friends.' Will GLaDOS' cold, sadistic sense of humor and morals get the better of the ponies? Or will they peel away the once artificial being's metallic shell and find that there's a softer side? Probably not, but it's worth a try.

Sequel to Moonbeam. Follow along and learn how Princess Luna fares in reintegrating herself back into Equestrian society, and how her friends from Ponyville cope with the changes to their lives that being close to royalty brings.

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!

Professor Discord starts receiving unwanted attention from the new student of Celestial Academy, Twilight Sparkle. As Twilight spends her days trying to unravel the mystery surrounding the Draconequus, something watches from the shadows with malicious intent.

So a draconequus walks into a bar and asks a sentient AI "why the no face?" That's sort of what this is like.

So I was in a chat room and we somehow got started talking about how much GLaDOS had in common with Discord (actually not a whole lot) so I was inspired to attempt a crack fic with them in a love/hate relationship. This is that attempt. Celestia help us all.

And yes I'm still doing Begotten, just haven't really been in the mood lately.
