2023: NO LONGER ON HIATUS

A little vacation back in time never hurt anyone, did it? Discord thought he was so clever, going back to when he was wild and free to relive the good old days for a little while.

It's a funny thing, looking at your own past with rose-tinted glasses.

Discord is near death and as curmudgeonly as ever. When his descendants are dropped off at his home to visit for Hearth's Warming Eve, he is more interested in distracting them so he can sleep. To keep them occupied, he shows them a strange crystal shard he's kept for many years, and is pulled into telling a story about his past that he had tried so hard to forget.

As much as Sunset loved having magic again, there are some things she could live without. For example, being able to see memories through physical contact, regardless of if she wanted to or not. And when the memories belong to not only one of her teachers, but the Human Counterpart to the Lord of Chaos? Yeah. That'll be an adventure. Though maybe not in the way she thought.

Rated Teen for swearing, and triggering subjects: blood, accidental self harm/suicide attempt, destructive breakdowns. . Also a bit of mood whiplash as it's a joke/dark/joke sandwich.

During the first conflict with Discord after his 1,000 year imprisonment, each of the ponies who wield the Elements of Harmony were forced to match wits with the Master of Chaos. All of them found that they were sorely out of their depth.

Except, perhaps, for one.

After Discord is imprisoned, Celestia takes each of the ponies aside to hear their stories. Fluttershy is the last one called and is a little nervous about the meeting. With a little encouragement from a friend, she is able to join the Princess for a cup of tea and describe her encounter with Discord. It might prove to be a rather fateful discussion.

Planned as the first in a series of related short stories based on Fluttershy as she shares tea with Discord and possibly one or two others.

Making Discord realize that he had to take other pony's feelings into consideration, not just hers, was harder than Fluttershy thought it would be.

Discord welcomes all sorts of chaos. He relishes it, in fact. It's almost his favorite thing in the whole world!

Almost. He loves Fluttershy much more, even if he hasn't quite found the words to say it yet.

Though, when Fluttershy and chaos combine, he's not sure what to think.

just something dumb I wrote that came from a single idea; not really my usual fare

Since time immemorial, the Grand Council of Immortals has watched over all aspects of Equestrian life. They determine the destinies of all things on the mortal plane, both great and small. They convene once every one hundred years, and the Immortal who plays host to the gathering is permitted one request.

This century, it is Princess Celestia who will host the meeting... and who will ask for an unprecedented gift be granted to the newest alicorn princess.

Inspired by the Rankin/Bass adaptation of the Life and Adventures of Santa Claus.

Discord joins the Mane 6 for a slumber party.
He gets bored very quickly.
Luckily, Rainbow Dash has an idea.
