Discord asked. Luna nodded a reply, and jammed the buttons on her video game controller. She scowled as another carriage blew up and somepony screamed. Rapid gunfire was heard, and an entire hoard of criminals fell over, bloody and shot. She adjusted her headset and swung it around her neck. "Care to play a round?" she asked, levitating up a second controller. Discord winced as another pony suddenly blew up, guts flying everywhere. "I'd rather not," he muttered. Luna shrugged. "Suit yourself," she said. As she continued to play, she picked up a blue bag from her pile of various snacks, and took out a treat. It was a black and white cookie in the shape of a sandwich. She popped it in her mouth and levitated the bag over to Discord, a silent offer if he wanted any. Intrigued, he took one out of the bag and ate it. "Never heard of these things before," he mused. "They're heavenly, that's for sure." "They call them Oreos," Luna replied as she blew up a building. "It's a new confection on the market. You could say I'm addicted to them." She suddenly let out a surprised yelp as the bag was torn out of her magical grip, and Discord poured the entire bag of cookies into his mouth. With a gasp, Luna levitated over a pillow and began swatting him with it. "You ignorant fool!" she exclaimed. "That was my last bag!" Discord was laughing too hard to even yell back, and Luna's game continued to let off a series of explosions as she kept beating him with the pillow. However, a sudden bang on the door interrupted their fun. "It's midnight -- and some of us are trying to sleep here!" Celestia shrieked. Luna pouted, and slapped Discord with the pillow one last time. "I regret nothing," he declared. "I hate you," she muttered.
