Twilight Sparkle, resident of Ponyville, and Princess of Friendship, has had many curious experiences with a certain Spirit of Chaos, but, at most, she's thought of him as an annoying, sometimes helpful friend.

So, imagine her surprise, when, during the morning of her day off, not only does the Draconequus disguise himself as a blaring alarm clock, but, professes his newfound love toward the princess, after reading a potentially suspect book on relationships.

Twilight was hoping to get some peace today...But, who knows how long she'll have to deal with the Chaos of Discord's attempted romancing of her?

I deserve no forgiveness. If I could take it back, well... I would never have met her. Somepony who could forgive me. I think. Look, it confuses me so stop asking!

I hate him and what he did to the Crystal Ponies is something I will never forgive. So why is it that I care when ponies scorn him? When they hurt him, why does it make me cry? When I see him, why does my heart skip?

Is it just me or has Twilight gone crazy? Dude's a jerk.

Can we please change the subject?

Author's Note: Other is flagged due to the character flag limit. Expect Cadance, Shining Armor, Luna, and Discord at least!

Discord is brought to Ponyville to be reformed. As a safety precaution, he is deprived of his magic before his release. Naturally, he is upset by this, but...
No one thought that the powerless spirit of chaos would actually run away! Twilight Sparkle won't let him get a way with it!

A word of warning: If you read for the Twilight x Discord, be aware that the buildup to actual romance in this story is extremely long. You will have to read for a long time before receiving gratification romance-wise. However, once it is established, the romance will be ongoing from then on.

Rewritten with permission from Probable Sarcasm, who confirmed to me that he will no longer continue writing stories. This is an unofficial spin-off rewrite of the fanfiction of the fanfiction, please support the official story's release.

Dusk Shine was born a mare.
Actually, this is a lot more complicated than it was before so let me be careful with my wording here.
Dusk Shine was born a mare; one of the rare, non-royal blooded alicorns that doesn't go out and completely expresses herself like a normal pony would.
This unofficial, rewrite of the spin-off follows the brilliantly smart-mouthed Twilight Sparkle: an antisocial, awkward, non-royal alicorn, unromantic bookworm, and (unbeknownst to her,) a ten on a scale hottie.
All Twilight Sparkle wanted to do was read, relax, and prepare for the never ending apocalypse as the never ending night that Night-Terror Knight will bring.
Much like any character you'd enjoy in King of Thrones, Twilight Sparkle's wishes are killed off when she is forced to leave her home in Canterlot because Prince Solaris sold her home in a game of Texas Hold-Em. Now she must live in a smaller town, named Ponyville, to watch over the Summer Sun Celebration and to make friends.
Unfortunately for her, each of the stallions she was instructed to be acquainted (and everyone else) with ends up falling head over hooves for the new librarian in town with the Canterlis accent.
Is this some sick joke or is Twilight Sparkle really supposed to make friends when everyone in Ponyville keeps fighting for her favor?
(Now with 100% less clop scenes!)

Quibble has a lot to say. His opinions are very easy to articulate. Feelings? Well, that's just another story...

The walk back to the convention starts out so smoothly....until Rainbow Dash does something she probably shouldn't have.

Discord didn't understand it. It seemed as if one day, she's totally annoying, and the next, she's totally adorable.
Could it possibly be love? Oh, such an idea is preposterous! The Spirit of Chaos in love? Ridiculous.
But, in time, he may find that love isn't such a bad thing.
