In the distant past, Grogar created thousands upon thousands of monsters and set them loose to ravage the Equestrian countryside, sowing fear and terror in their wake. It was a magnificent time of anarchy like none seen before or since. When he was driven underground, Grogar could no longer control them, but what of it? As he bided his time, consolidated his power, the monsters were still loose, doing exactly what he made them to do.

Except, much to his chagrin, some monsters were reformed. This includes a certain draconequus.

And said draconequus is so happy to see his dad again.

Instead of being defeated and turned to stone, Discord made peace with Equestria, opting to rule a land where condemn criminals and outcasts are banished to.

But of course, all things are relative. After all, Discord's tyranny is benevolent compared to the warring Queens, Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon

Telling Discord to 'find more friends' is asking for trouble.

A Most Delightful Ponidox short.

The windigos have been defeated, and their winter dispelled as a new age of unification dawns upon Ponykind. And Discord the Draconequus endlessly spins his schemes on to keep these mortals from committing their own undoing. In the process, he comes to meet with someone who, one day, will be of great aid to him. If he permits her to exist, after all.

My entry into the Imposing Sovereigns II Contest

Decades after the founding of Equestria, the nation faces an existential threat -- a war with the dragons.

The dragons have proposed a truce. Luna and Discord are uncertain, but Celestia insists that they must give the dragons the benefit of the doubt, and accept the truce.

This turns out to be a mistake.

At her coronation after-party, Twilight gets a little freaked out at the prospect of growing into her new life, especially one specific aspect of it. She knows better than anyone that talking her problems over with a friend can help tremendously, but she doesn't have many friends with whom she'd be comfortable talking about this particular problem, let alone ones who would really understand what she's going through.

...unless she broadens her definition of "friend."

Probably the best thing to happen in Discord's long life was finding the magic of friendship. As much as the old Chaos Lord might complain, without it he would never have found so many that were dear to his heart.

When that heart finds itself empty, he comes to the Princess to ask a favor: allow him the opportunity to bring friendship to other dark hearts. All she has to do is lend him a statue.

The rest is in his chaotic claws.

Death tag - no horrible murder, just a few mentions and the natural consequences of time.

Discord embracing friendship was critically important for Equestria, bringing it a powerful ally and taking away one of its greatest threats.

Twilight just wishes that he would stop trying to give Fluttershy presents.

"This is a hundred times more upsetting than anything else I have ever seen in my life."~Posh

Late one night, Discord teleports into Twilight Sparkle's library and shakes her from her bed. He demands the unbelievable — a past-midnight pizza party. Twilight has no choice but to suffer the consequences and share a slice with the draconequus.

First, they have to make a pizza.

Together.
