Showy Chaos

Chapter 10: Romantic Advice

I woke up and went up to Trixie’s room. I smiled, she was sleeping soundly. My heart tingled in her presence. I sighed, I had no idea how to approach this love wasn’t a familiar topic. I mean loving couples caused a lot of chaos but beyond that I have no idea, I made some pancakes.

Trixie woke up and smiled as I levitated the breakfast to her. As I watched her eat my mind mulled over what to do, the it clicked. I knew one pony who could help me, Princess Cadence. I said “Trixie , I need some advice from somepony but I’ll be back in couple of hours.” I clicked my claws summoning all the books on magic in my home into a pile. I smiled “Now you won’t be bored while I’m gone.”

Trixie smiled warmly “Thanks Discord ,your a good friend.” I turned around my face slightly red, sweet Celestia it’s getting worse. I clicked my claws and dissapeared. I arrived flying above the Crystal Empire, I made a swift but calm landing. I noticed more than a few ponies glared at me. I walked to the castle, I must admit the crystals were quite pretty.

As I approached the Castle one of the guards poked me with his lance. He snarled “You’re not welcome here monster.”

His fellow guard hit him over the back of the head “You dolt, do you want him to turn us into pot plants or cotton candy or crystals.”

The first guard snarled back “It’s better than pandering to this monster.” I slammed my claw into my face, this is stupid.

A voice shouted “Enough, what the is the meaning of all this?” I looked up to see Prince Armour scowling at his guards.

They stammered “We were having an argument because of him.” I frowned as they pointed at me.

Prince Armour commanded “After your duty is finished I expect fifty laps on the training grounds from each of you.” They grumbled something under their breath. He frowned “Discord, what are you doing here?”

I smiled nervously “Um, I am here to speak with Princess Cadence, I need her advice on a tough topic.”

He blinked for a few seconds before smirking “Oh my wife is going to enjoy this, come on better not leave her waiting.” I followed the Prince, he certainly wasn’t making this easy for me. He knocked on the door of the throne room.

I heard Cadence shout “Come in!” Cadence frowned at her husband as she stared at me.

Shining smirked “He needs you advice on a ‘tough topic’.”

Cadence frown dissapeared, she said “Come with me Discord.” I followed her to her room, it was very pink and I also noticed a game of Oubliettes and Ogres sticking out from under the bed, I smiled that must belong to Prince Armour.

I asked “Um, Princess Cadence can we….”

She smiled “Please just Cadence is fine, now who is the lucky girl.”

I smiled nervously “Um, her name is Trixie?”

Cadence smirked “Not a bad choice, must admit I have trying to match you up with somepony, I had 3 choices for you actually, I had considered Celestia.”

I raised an eyebrow “Really?!”

Cadence said “You did give her flowers.”

I said “True, I did hmm.”

Cadence smiled “My other two were Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy is already a good friend and Pinkie Pie is a nice bundle of strange.”

I frowned “Little secret, she actually scares me.”

Cadence blinked “Why?”

I sighed “To be honest if she could use her powers properly, she could have easily overpowered me after I escaped the first time, in fact If she turned out like I did not even the elements could stop her.”

Cadence gasped “What?”

I said “But enough of that, I need romantic advice, I have no idea how to do it. I have set up plenty of couples during my reign of Equestria, love creates a steady supply of chaos but it needs to be cut at some point or else it explodes.”

Cadence said “I think you should take her out on a nice romantic dinner, get her in a pretty dress and go somewhere fancy, from what I know of her from Twilight she would like that.”

I frowned “But she currently incapable of walking.”

Cadence smirked wickedly “Then you will have to help dress her, I’m sure you will have no problem doing that.”

I blushed, my heart beating a little too quickly “I’m sss-ure I won’t.”

She smiled “Go get her and sweep her off he hooves.”

I felt pride surge though me and I teleported back home, I entered the room to see Trixie smiling as she had read 12 of the books and was currently reading the thirteenth. I smirked “Trixie, I see your working quite hard. You may just beat Twilight in being a bookworm.”

She smiled sheepishly “Well, I can’t do much more than read but I would love to practise some spells.”

I smiled “I’d like to take you out somewhere fancy tonight, I have a feeling you’ll enjoy it.”

Trixie blushed “You mean like a date?”

I smirked “Maybe, now let’s get you practising.” Two hours past and I was quite surprised at how well she was going, her teleportation had improved as well as a apt demonstration of fire and ice magic. I smiled “Your really good at this.”

Trixie smiled “I guess after having to work with a restricted magic pool , having full access makes spells so much easier.”

I heard a knock at my door, I saw Rarity standing there. She asked “Can I see Trixie?’

I frowned “Fine, but you will not cause her any trouble.” She nodded and entered the room, I just hoped there wouldn’t be a problem. I sighed at least tonight would be good.
