Discords renascent

Morning after

Morning after

Waking up with a large yawn, Gydina slowly got off the sofa, stretching her back out with a groan. While it was much, much less comfortable than Vidhwansak's bed, she wasn't about to go sleep in the same bed as the pegasus, mostly out of the fear that they would wake up in a rather compromising situation. She didn't want anything else to get in the way of their friendship.

Gydina sniffed the air, and noticed that Vidhwansak was awake, making some pancakes. She loved Vidhwansak's pancakes, they literally melted in your mouth, and their buttery flavor combined with syrup made for your own piece of delicious heaven. She quickly ran into the kitchen, grabbed a plate, a fork, and sat down at a small table in the room, waiting patiently for the pegasus to finish cooking.

Vidhwansak sighed. "Gydina, I just started making the pancakes. Can you wait for awhile?" Gydina groaned. Waiting, on those delicious, fluffy pancakes? That was cruel and unusual punishment in Gydina's book. Not having anything to do, she wandered over to Vidhwansak's computer, and powered it on. Apparently, she woke up in the middle of the night, for there was a new chapter that Gydina hadn't seen yet. Quickly, behind the pegasus' back, Gydina sent off the latest chapter off, and walked back to the table.

Vidhwansak soon flew slowly out of the kitchen, balancing a large plate of pancakes in her hooves. Gydina's mouth visibly watered, and the pegasus shot a glare to the unicorn, who quickly got the message, and closed her mouth. Placing the plate gently down on the table, Vidhwansak went back into the kitchen to grab the syrup. Before she was halfway back to the table, however, Gydina, tired of Vidhwansak flying so slowly towards her, wrenched the syrup bottle out of the pegasus' hooves. The pegasus, not expecting this, lost the careful balance she had while flying, and crashed down on the floor for the second time that week.

Vidhwansak slowly got up, and sighed. Well, that was the thanks she got for making breakfast, she supposed, seeing Gydina plow through the mass of pancakes. Still, she thought with a small smile, it was nice to see that somepony appreciated her, out in Manehattan. The pegasus sat herself down on another chair, and slowly began to eat two of her pancakes. Gydina, having finished her seventh pancake and still going strong, asked the pegasus a question that had nagged her throughout the night.

"Hey, Viddy, is your story real? Like, non-fiction?" The pegasus looked up, surprised. That was a question she hadn't expected the unicorn to ask. She got off her chair, and flew off without a word to the unicorn. Gydina wondered where she was going, shrugged, and got back to her pancakes. She was slowing down on her ninth pancake when Vidhwansak returned, a large, heavy looking book in her hooves. The title read 'The return of the third Alicorn'.

"I was inspired by this, it contains a prophecy that there would be a third Alicorn that will appear. After reading through the history of it, I decided to write my story, using Discord as the third Alicorn." Gydina nodded, yawning. "Yeah, yeah, I know, I read through it and sent it off for others to read. So, it's fiction, then?"

The clunk of a heavy book hitting the floor was quite audible. The pegasus stared death at the unicorn, who was smiling that sheepish grin Vidhwansak had grown to tolerate, for the most part.

"Gydina. Did you really...?" The pegasus trailed off, waiting for the unicorn to answer for herself. Gydina nodded slowly, which, surprisingly, instead of setting Vidhwansak off like a firecracker, made her slump down onto the floor, and curl up into a ball, muttering to herself. "Find a happy place, find a happy place, find...A...Happy...Place..."

Getting creeped out and not wanting to aggravate the pegasus anymore, Gydina slowly got off her chair, and quietly left the apartment room, leaving behind a muttering pegasus on the floor.
