Today was the fifth day staying inside because of the snowstorm and guess what? Fluttershy and Discord were eating a maple-flavored snow cone! In a snowstorm! Well, Discord's powers made it always toasty warm inside the cottage. Right now, they were just adding the flavoring and Discord put some in his mouth.
"Discord."
"Oh relax! There is plenty extra!" Discord said as he ate it.
"Well, what if there isn't anymore?" Fluttershy looked at the side of the bottle as she saw the sticky substance went down.
"If I run out, you can take a bite of mine!" Discord lowered the bottle, leaving it empty.
"*sigh* I guess I should go get the chocolate syrup out." Fluttershy gave her snow cone to Discord and got out the chocolate syrup from in the fridge.
"Hey no fair! You never told me there was chocolate syrup!" Discord tried to glare at Fluttershy but failed.
"You did eat all of the maple syrup, so what could I do?" Discord gave his best kitty eyes, (since Fluttershy didn't accept puppy eyes) then Fluttershy finally gave in.
"*sigh*Fine." Fluttershy squirted some of the syrup onto hers first, then made a chocolate smiley face on Discord's snow cone.
"Hey! You made a face on mine! Now, I'm going to call you George." Discord then licked his with his snake-like tongue all in one bite.
"Uh, why did you eat George?" Fluttershy slowly licked her snow cone.
"Well, George's destiny was to be gobbled up by moi." Discord put his talon on his chest as he said this.
"*hehe* Well okay. This snow cone's name is, um, Snow White." Fluttershy then licked some more off of hers.
"Well, sudden twist! The prince dies and Snow White has to kiss Prince Charming called George! Well, accompanied by the 7 dust bunnies." Discord laughed.
"Okay then. 'Lalalalaaala! Oh my! My true love! Muah!'" Fluttershy acted her snow cone to be like Snow White.
"'Huh? Oh my true love! Muah!'" Discord laughed with Fluttershy as they made their snow cone dolls kiss.
"Well, my snow cone is melting, I may have to eat her." Fluttershy nibbled on her cone.
"Okay, but I should just get started on the coooookies!!" Discord exaggerated.
"But Discord! The chimney must be full of snow, so it may make the snow melt, and-" Fluttershy was cut off as Discord leaned in and kissed her on the cheek.
"You know, I can always use my magic. Also, when we get done, we can sit on the couch and see a movie or something." Discord resumed to his normal tone of voice after his romantic one.
"Oh, I may as well try to finish this snow cone, wouldn't want you waiting!" Fluttershy then took about 3 minutes as she finished her snow cone.
"Done!" Fluttershy declared.
"*huff* Took you long enough." Discord said sarcastically.
"So lets get the ingredients out for chocolate chip cookies." Fluttershy turned to open the fridge but was stopped by Discord's voice.
"Who said we had to make typical and boring cookies?" Discord teleported to Fluttershy's side and looked at the ingredients in the fridge.
"Hmm... Lettuce, no. Celery, no. Cabbage, no. Carrots, maybe. Cream cheese? Yes!" Discord magically took the ingredients from the fridge and the pantry and set it on the kitchen counter.
"So flour, carrots, sugar, cream cheese, salt, butter, some cinnamon, an egg, baking powder, and milk. Hey! These are the ingredients for carrot cakes!" Fluttershy exclaimed.
"Why of course! Except we would change it into cookies." Discord also got the mixing bowl out, along with a wooden spoon, a pastry bag and cookie cutters.
"Then we add flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Yes, mix it all up!" Discord clawed Fluttershy the wooden spoon and she and Discord worked the dry mixture.
"Next, we add butter, the egg, and milk." Fluttershy said as she dumped it in carefully.
mix mix mix mix.
"Now let's grate the carrots." Discord got out the grater with his magic and grated it as the finished carrots went inside the mixing bowl.
mix mix mix mix.
"Now we take the cookie cutters, and let it bake!" Fluttershy said as she grabbed the oven guards while Discord punched out the shapes. Fluttershy, still with the oven guards in her mouth, put the tray into the oven rack and let Discord turn on the oven.
"Well Fluttershy, what should we do in the meantime?" Discord said after he was done, but before Fluttershy could respond, he made a lightbulb that looked like his face appear over his horns.
"Aha!" Discord then teleported to somewhere, then came back with an album. Oh Fluttershy knew that album very well. That album was her baby pictures.
"Discord! Please let's not read that. Or, look at that." Fluttershy pleaded while blushing.
"Oh really? You much rather let us both look in your personal diary?" Discord made that appear hovering above his shoulder.
"N-no let's not read that." Fluttershy blushed furiously.
"Hmm... Well this one makes you very embarrassed and this one is all your personal secrets! I think we should go with both of them!" Discord exclaimed.
"NO!" Fluttershy shrieked.
"Come on! We shouldn't have any secrets between us!" Discord started with the first page in Fluttershy's diary.
"Dear diary numb-" Discord was cut off by Fluttershy's hoof on his muzzle.
"S-sorry. I,I guess I should endure the embarrassment just to get it over with." Fluttershy looked away, who was still blushing like crazy. "But you have to promise me this; I have to hold it."
"Weeelll, how about we hold it together?!" Discord's face looked like a filly's face at the first time in sugar cube corner.
"Okay, I guess that will work." Fluttershy got enough courage and started looking up at the book instead of the couch cushion.
Discord started reading the first page again. "So, 'dear diary number one. Today I just got this brand new book from Twilight! She said that I should use this for my diary, so I guess that is what I am doing now. Nothing really exciting happening today. Angel just got grounded, not sure if that is a good thing about today, but that is something. So, let me think... Oh! Pinkie Pie gave me some cupcakes that were made from Applejack's zap apples! I'm sure they will taste delicious. Well, that's all for today, so until next time!' See? That wasn't so bad!"
"Oh, okay, I guess we could keep on going." Fluttershy said tentatively.
"Onward to chapter two! *ahem* Dear diary number two.-" Discord and Fluttershy continued on until the cookies were done and Discord got up and let the cookies cool. He teleported Fluttershy to him and asked her, "How about one more chapter, before we decorate these cookies?"
"Sure, I guess that's fine." Fluttershy flew over and grabbed the diary from the little coffee table that was set there.
"Dear diary number 34. Discord just came over today! He is a real nice guy, even if he was the master of chaos. I don't think every villain is bad. I just think he was a bit childish, but only a bit out of control. I write letters to him, every day I can. We are on good terms now, except, for my friends. You see, they don't know of my letters to Discord, or of my tea times with him. They just need to show kindness to him, and maybe he will stop his antics with them. I think I am finally starting to really change him, and I mean, really change him. So until next time!" Discord looked at Fluttershy with love, and compassion for that little chapter.
"Time to make the glaze!" Fluttershy said as she prepared the pastry bag. Discord then mixed the extra sugar, cream cheese, extra milk, and cinnamon. It made it turn into a soupy and sticky texture.
"Scoop it in the bag!" Fluttershy said when Discord put the mixture into the papery bag. Fluttershy closed the end and squirted the glaze onto the cookies, making it a drizzle.
"Mmmm! It smells divine!" Discord said as she stuck his snout as close as he could to the cookie.
"I think it is done!" Fluttershy grabbed a cookie and bit into it, and Discord did as well.
"Mmm!" The two synchronized. Discord brought a plate full of cookies onto the couch and teleported Fluttershy along with him.
"Chapter number 35. Rarity thought I would be a good match for Big Macintosh...' WHAT?!" Discord looked at Fluttershy with anger.
"Discord just read on!" Fluttershy pointed towards the diary, ignoring Discord's wrath.
"Fine fine! Ugh. *ahem* Rarity thought I would be a good match for Big Macintosh, and I strongly disagree with her suggestion! Sure, we are both quiet, but I thought he was going out with Miss Cheerilee! I would just ruin their plans when I come in with a heart and ask for his heart. No, I think my companion, should be.... Oh I don't know! What if he says no? What if he turns on me? What if he rejects my heart? Oh, maybe I shouldn't ask him. Yes, screw that idea... I have no pony. Just, no pony..' Fluttershy, is that a tear stain?" Discord pointed to a dried up piece of paper that is slightly darker than the rest.
"Yes. I think so." Fluttershy looked down.
"Umm, may I ask, who was this pony?"
"Umm, it wasn't. anypony..."
"Then who were you talking about?"
"I was talking about a certain, draconequus..." Fluttershy met eye contact with Discord.
"Me?! Back then?! Fluttershy, I will never, reject your heart. Never, ever."
"You promise?"
"I promise."
"Cross my heart, I hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." Fluttershy and Discord said in harmony.
"So you wouldn't reject... This?" Fluttershy pulled out a paper heart from inside the pages of the book. What read on the paper, was: Will you be my special somepony? It also showed Discord and Fluttershy looking at each other, Discord walking on all fours, and Fluttershy looking over her shoulder.
"Oh Fluttershy! YES!" Discord hugged Fluttershy and she squealed in impact.
"Yay!" Fluttershy said before she was released. She then immediately ate a cookie, since she was a bit peckish. She and Discord ended up eating five cookies each, while they watched a movie for the rest of the night.
On the fifth day of Christmas

Four heating blankets,
