Dear Princess Celestia, 

Why is it that you would go with the obvious choice and decide that Twilight should be the one to eventually take over?  I get it, you groomed her to do this but what about me?  Come on, I have been alive for millennia and I know how the minds of the oldest villains work, not to mention I could simply rip the very fabric of reality and  cast them into another dimension, like what I could have done to that junkie Twilight has locked up.

You are just as bad as Twilight was when it came to installing a temporary schoolmaster was with Starlight.  When it comes to you it is always, "Need somepony with powerful magic, Twilight!  Need somepony to save the day, Twilight!  Need somepony to be in charge, Twilight!"  You saw how bad her Twilighting was, she was hyperventilating and going into a state of panic and yet you think she is really prepared to do this?  If you want somepony to run the country, it should be me.  I would do anything and everything to protect Equestria, all for my dear friend Fluttershy! 

Now I am very upset that you caused me to waste my breath on a very touching speech and tricked me into faking an injury.  Had I known you would simply come back in and retake control, I would have intervened and sent Sombra to a place where nopony could save him.  Now I would advise you rethink who you plan on taking over for you after you and your sister quit your jobs and go on a permanent vacation, I would advise you choose the Lord of Chaos.  

Sincerely, 

Discord, The Lord of Chaos

P.S.  If you decide not to choose me, at least pick Starlight since her magic is better and will be more likely to destroy Equestria's enemies than simply imprisoning them.





Dear Discord, 

Look, I have been grooming Twilight for this ever since I banished her to that backwater town she seems to love now.  Everything has been one giant test for her.  Now I will admit, there have been a lot of times where I didn't think she had it in her, that whole time when she failed to make friends, that whole time she was your little friend's doormat and that whole "healing" phase that pissed Colgate off so much but she has proven that she is ready. 

Hell, she has even seemed to make amends with the pony that stabbed her in the back!  I will admit, I don't exactly like it but it seems as though she realizes that those six have to be in perfect harmony if they are to defeat the worst of the worst.  Now if being able to put that past her isn't proof she is ready, then I don't know what would.  Oh and about the meltdown, she was just Twilighting and that is likely something that I can never make go away.

Now regarding putting you in charge, HELL NO.  If I put you in charge, you'd probably be turning buildings into cake and inviting me to come eat them.....oh wait, when you bring it up that doesn't sound half bad.  Tell you what, if you promise me that you'll turn buildings into chocolate cake with strawberry frosting, with as much fat and calories as possible, I'll let you take over.  But do know this, if each three ounce serving of cake doesn't have at least 4,000 calories and 200 grams of fat, I'll give the throne to Twilight and her friends, ok?

Thinking About Letting You Take Over, 

Oh and regarding putting Starlight in charge, I have plans for her, much bigger plans.  Plans that I know that both her and Trixie will absolutely love!
