Discord heard something drop as he glanced downwards to the dog lying on the floor. He was waiting for it to jump back up again and resume its useless attempt to get up to him but it didn't. The dog lied on the floor not moving. Suddenly, something struck him as if he suddenly knew what was wrong. He quickly teleported down from the ceiling and beside the dog, crouching beside it. 

"Hello?..Uh..Hey. Helllooo!!" He said, each word getting more frantic as he shook the dog with his paw. Yet, the dog did not respond. 

Did..Did I kill it? Discord thought, hoping it didn't come to that. He lied down slowly beside it when he felt a lick on his face. He looked to see now the pretty much lifeless pup up again and wagging its tail.

"You're alright!" Discord grinned, picking up the puppy holding it close to him. The dog barked licking at his face some more. The dog was suddenly levitated away from him though as Discord snapped another towel drying his face off. 

"Alright, we need to establish some rules though my little friend."

The dog was suddenly teleported to a room with very luxurious red furniture. The dog was sitting on a small red stool with a large chair turned to its back in front of it. The chair suddenly spun around as Discord was on it holding a large parchment that was a large trail around the chair. He wore reading glasses as he seem to be reading the first rule. 

"Rule number 1. No licking me. Its not all that well..Enjoyable. It maybe to you but its not to me." 

The dog tilted its head as Discord continued. 

"Rule number 2. Chaos is always welcome in mine and your new home." He began skimming through it now, mumbling to himself."Blah, blah..Don't leave the laundry...Discord is..What? I didn't write this." Discord now looked behind him, eyes narrowed. There was slight laughter that sounded like his and it vanished as soon as it came. 

"Oh whatever, we don't need this!" Discord crumpled up the large parchment and threw it behind him. There was a large explosion noise that blew the dog's ears behind as the back drop of a beautiful rich room suddenly fell to the ground revealing Discord's own home behind them. 

"It was a cheap set. Nothing really valuable was damaged." And just as Discord said that, a large light from the ceiling fell crashing down. The dog yelped as it held on to the stool tight. 

"Oh come now my harmonious friend. You'll have to get use to this chaos if we're going to be friends and room mates!" Discord picked up the dog as he teleported back to their home. He put the dog down now on the floor. 

"Hm..You need a name.." Discord tapped his paw to his chin as he began thinking. Something chaotic may work. He was sure with time the dog would get use to his chaos and warm up to it. Though, it seemed the dog had other plans as it ran over to where the volcano was on the ceiling. It seemed Discord had left his roasted marshmallows out as one just happen to fall from the ceiling and straight into the dog's open mouth. The dog ate it happily and looked over to Discord. 

"You want to be named..Marshmallow?.."

The dog barked, seeming it said 'yes'. 

"...That's the most unoriginal name I've ever heard in my life."

The dog's ears fell as it looked down at the ground.

"Marshmallow it is!" Discord grinned as the dog ran up to him barking, dancing around him pretty much. Discord laughed as he picked up the little dog. "We're going to have so much chaotic fun together, Marshmallow!"
