Chapter 12: Returning...

"Honestly, a little change would have done." That voice. I knew that voice. I looked up from a magazine and saw a combination of species sown together. Discord was back.

"Discord. Good to see you." said being was currently dangling from a chair on the ceiling. "You haven't been to my store since...uh..."

"Since I made a deal with celestiaâ„¢l beings, to get a day out of statue prison?"

"Um...yeah, that." With a thought, my magic began working on something he'd like. While it did I decided to ask, "So, you gonna be a regular? I've already got two princesses and dragon coming by. I'll have to expand the store if I'm expecting others like you."

Discord laughed, "Expand it you say? Well, I'm flattered." Using a bendy straw that circled around his eyes, Discord began drinking Something Out of Somewhere. "Emphasis on the 'Out' good sir."

"What?"

"Nothing." Choosing to ignore the strange comment we continued talking, mostly about what I planned on doing to the store.

"...and if I do that I can add at least four more tables. What do you think?"

"I think you should put the tables on the ceiling."

"Okay, then, that's not helping."

"Hey, you asked for my opinion. What did you think I was going to say?" With a snap of his talon a monocle and tuxedo suddenly appeared on him. "Ah yes good sir, I do believe an exquisite transition from bluish green to greenish blue will change the outlook of your store astoundingly. The walls should be pushed out too if I might add."

I stared at him for a bit before bursting out laughing. Lord of Chaos or not, he's funny...sometimes. Then the bell rang.

"Welcome, and please Donut Go before sampling the new super head spri-"

"I'll pass. I was hoping you can give me a hug instead." another voice I recognized all too well.

"Spike! Buddy. Where have you been?" I wrapped him in a large hug and thought up something else to fix alongside...whatever I'd thought of for Discord.

Discord rolled his eyes, "Keeping Twilight out of trouble I would presume."

"You betcha...wait...what's he doing here?" Spike pointed to the being of chaos who had decided that drinking was best done without a cup.

"He's a regular." I said, to which I could see Discord smile. Spike shrugged and sat down in his chair.

"Well, anywho, I have a plethora of stories to tell you about Twilight." As a batch of sugar came out of the oven (yes, I just baked sugar for Discord, sue me), I listened to my good friend go on about his bookworm mother.

Ah, just like the good ol' days.
