This story is a sequel to Vines

Zecora comes to Discord with an offer for peace, or at least detente, from the Tree of Harmony. She also has some advice. Too bad he's not going to take it. A post-"Princess Twilight Sparkle" fic that also serves as a prequel to "Elements of Opposition" and its related fics.

Discord and Angel Bunny don’t normally involve themselves with Fluttershy’s personal life. She means a lot to them, both as a friend and a caretaker, and they don’t want to mess anything up in her life.

That is, until she comes home one day, crying over what only seems completely sane to assume is a stallion problem. They go to take care of the problem and find the pony who hurt her, that is, if they can ever find him and not just cause more problems.

The time for reckoning has come. After nearly a thousand years of avoidance and dread, Discord's fate is sealed in what is surely his end. Can the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony possibly survive what is most likely his certain doom? Or will the perils be too great for him to manage?

All he knows is that minty fresh breath will be the least of his worries.

Dramatic reading you can find here.

Discord is trying not to let his emotions get the best of him after loosing his sister. However, avoiding his feelings is a mistake he will soon pay the price for.

This story is a sequel to Neither Rain Nor Sleet Nor Gloom of Night... But Chaos, That's Another Story

After the Gala, Fluttershy pulls Discord aside for a talk. Neither of them are too happy about this.

Quite a bit happened as Chrysalis's defeat approached and everypony finally escaped the reformed changeling hive to celebrate at the Sunset Festival in Starlight's old village. After all, when many characters who don't usually meet end up paired together, there are bound to be some interesting interactions--new friendships can be realized, old friendships can grow stronger, creatures can learn about each other, and fresh views can be shared. The point is togetherness and finding comfort in the fact that in Equestria you never have to be alone.

...Unless you choose to be.

The end of Chrysalis's evil reign brings peace to all but careful contemplation to one as Starlight Glimmer and her friends have a well-earned celebration of the magic of friendship.

When crime runs rampant across Equestria, two individuals step up to help:

Officer Cord and Detective Shy.

Even if no one asked them to.

Pinkie Pie has mystified Discord for a long time. How is it that she can regularly break the laws of physics, be everywhere at once, and never run out of energy? In many ways, she reminds him of his own abilities. That gets him thinking about things, and a lightbulb goes off in his head.

This brainstorming gives Discord a rather interesting theory, one he's eager to find out if it's correct. If so, it would delight him to no end. Of course, he has to put his theory to the test, in the way only a draconequus can.

It might be a good idea to pray for Pinkie's safety right about now.

Twilight and Discord are a long way from home, and have to journey through a realm of madness and chaos to get back to Equestria. Fortunately, this is Discord's speciality, so Twilight is in safe hands. Less fortunately, all the local gods want him dead.

The Gala is over, the first one since Luna's return from the moon. Tormented by guilt from having been Nightmare Moon, Luna walks into the garden to contemplate Discord's statue, and wonder if she made a horrible mistake all those centuries ago.
