Discorded Scoots: Quick! Tell that stallion that you just knocked him harder than you thought and he will think that you changing color is just in his head!
Rain Catcher’s questioning stare made Scootaloo all the more uncomfortable in this situation. She definitely didn’t want to tell him the truth about her color change. The less ponies that knew about this, the better.
“…Did I hit you so hard that it made you colorblind or something, because I seriously have no clue what you’re talking about. I’m pretty sure I’m still grey.” She said, her confidence not quite all there.
Rain Catcher knew for a fact that this wasn’t the case. Even if he had been made colorblind, he was sure there was no way he could mistake grey for purple and orange. He appeared to observe her a little more closely, trying to see through any possible lying.
“I don’t know. You’re coat looks a LOT like orange to me…” he said with a suspicious tone in his voice. Looking at her now, she appeared to be nearly the spitting image of her “Sister” before she started wearing her hair down.
Seeing how much Rain Catcher was taking in her form, Scootaloo blushed; afterwards cursing herself for doing so.
“Are you for certain that you’re still grey?”
To Dissy(DS):Tell him that it's not his fucking buissness, you don't have to tell him shit, so you change color, big deal, magic happens all the fucking time. Hit him if he's still bothering.
Not wanting to deal with anymore of this shit, Scootaloo growled and pushed him back.
“Ask me one more time, and I WILL hit you again.” She growled, hoping that her voice sounded intimidating enough.
Rain Catcher backed away and put his hooves up in a surrendering position.
“Okay, okay! I’ll stop! Just…don’t bucking do that again.” He exclaimed.
The faded orange Pegasus backed off and huffed.
“Good. Better keep it that way. Unless of course you feel like you don’t value your teeth anymore.” Scootaloo threatened, which resulted in a gulp from Rain Catcher.
To RC: no, she was always that color. You simply have shit eyesight
RC obviously wasn’t going to pester Dissy again after she had made such malicious statements toward him, but decided to keep his thoughts to himself.
‘I can’t get over how weird this is. My eyesight never had any problems before…’
To R.C: You better not pry, because Dissy's got one hell of a temper and her castrating you with a pair of pliers will probably be the least of your worries if you get her pissed.
‘On one hoof, I don’t feel like dying. On the other, I still wonder what the heck her problem is. She just looks WAY too pissed for something NOT to be wrong.’ He thought.
To R.C: You're still an asshole but hey I'm willing to give you a chance so lets hear it, why did you leave scootaloo and lightning blitz? probably out of fear but i want to hear what you have to say.
“Yeah, what in all things Tartarus were you thinking?! I understand you’re going to at least try to make amends but just…why?” Discorded Scootaloo asked.
Rain Catcher was obviously not in the mood to talk about this subject, and let out a sigh of both annoyance, and reluctance to speak.
“Okay, look. It went like this. A while back, I had a pretty bloated ego. I was in the more advanced classes and I just happened to be good at sports. Me and Scootaloo dated for a while and…well…like I said I had a pretty big head, so naturally I bragged that I could score with her. My friends called bullshit on me, so being the moron I was, I decided to prove them wrong. One thing led to another and…yeah. Afterwards, when I found out Scootaloo was pregnant, I didn’t want to face the consequences because of my stupid mistake, so I broke it off between us and up and left. To say the least…I was terrified.” He said, slightly cringing at the last few words.
Discorded Scootaloo had sort of expected this kind of explanation out of this colt. She had always figured teenage colts to be egotistic and stupid, but after hearing the entirety of the situation, she must’ve realized the stereotype was true for the most part.
R.C. : Hey....Having a tough day? well, I'm gunna make it worse. How did she brake the news of the baby to her and, more importantly, how did your and her parents react? One more thing, have you heard of a certain pony named, maybe not pony per say, Discord? Just wondering.
~The Professor
“To my knowledge, Scootaloo’s mother got cancer and died when she was five, so she wasn’t around…Sandy however…I heard she completely lost it. I’m talking flipping tables and screaming till her lungs were fit to bust. My mom came down HARD on me. I’m barely allowed to leave the house now. I needed to get out so badly that I snuck out; that’s pretty much the only reason I’m even outside right now. To add to that, she wants me to make amends with Scootaloo just as badly as she does.“ Rain Catcher pointed a hoof at Discorded Scootaloo, who still wore a slight bored/irritated look.
“As for my reaction to the whole thing…I really don’t want to talk about it. It had to be the lowest point in my life, and I regret it a LOT.” Rain Catcher said, now getting to the last major part of this question.
“…Discord? God of Chaos with a shit attitude that turned Ponyville into the Chaos capital of the world, that Discord? Yeah, I’ve heard of him. Pretty much everypony in Equestria knows who…uh Dissy, you ok?” Rain Catcher had stopped talking after he saw Discorded Scootaloo shivering with a horrified look on her face at the mention of Discord.
“I-I’m f-fine.” She said with a slight stutter in her voice. On Rain Catcher’s side, it didn’t sound convincing at all, but he knew if he said anything, he was going to most likely die.
To Rain Catcher: She's half Chameleon, and buck your self-pity, us mighty voice bubbles feel NO SYMPATHY FOR YOU!
“Hurray.” Rain Catcher said with a deadpan expression.
Discorded Scootaloo broke from her traumatized state and looked at Rain Catcher with the same aggravated face she sported a lot of the time.
“Look, we’ve cleared up that you’re going to try and makes things right with Scootaloo, but I find myself sympathizing more with her. I know exactly what it’s like to be left behind by somepony you thought loved you at the worst possible time of your life. It isn’t fun.” She said, recalling her time in The Coop and the one pony she had hoped beyond hope would come to her aid.
“What…What exactly happened?” Rain Catcher asked.
“I thought he was the most amazing colt I’ve ever met. He was always so nice and kind to me, always pushing me to improve my flying. And I’d belying if I said he wasn’t cute.” Every word she was saying had traced back to her days before The Coop. Before all the hate and anguish…
Before Discord.
‘…I miss you so much Rumble.’ She thought to herself sadly. Her coat started to flash rapidly between grey and orange, and she struggled to keep her composure.
‘Hnngh! N-No! I-I can’t give in! Not now!’ she screamed in her mind.
Discorded Scootaloo must have noticed Rain Catcher still looking at her with that curious face, still obviously perplexed by her rapid color changing, and started to grow self conscious.
D.S. and now, its time to make like the doctor and run the fuk away.
Dissy, option B still stands. Run.
Instead of even bothering to take the chance of explaining this, Discorded Scootaloo took the bubble’s advice. She quickly got to her hooves, and galloped out of sight before Rain Catcher even had a second to speak, leaving a trail of dust in her wake.
“…That filly has issues.” He said to himself.
Scootaloo didn’t stop galloping until she was back in the streets of Ponyville, and she was absolutely certain she was out of the colt’s sight. Turning around to make sure she wasn’t being followed, she sighed in exhaustion.
“Phew. That could’ve been bad. The last thing I need right now is more ponies knowing about where I came from.” She said, starting to try and find her way back to Motherly Scootaloo’s home.
To DS: Is this like some new form of wingboner for you...? You know, the whole color changing thing (and don't try to avoid it or I'll make this day miserable for you!)?
“You don’t know how Pegasi anatomy works do you? That has got to be one of the stupidest things I’ve heard in my entire life…and I’ve heard some ridiculous stuff.”
To Discorded Scootaloo: I doubt that you are pregnant, considering how this current dimention's Scootaloo isn't pregnant. She was, but she isn't anymore, and I doubt that you could get pregnant, unless you get really friendly with a stallion's inflatable poo-jabber
“Well…damn. I guess you don’t get any blunter than that. In all seriousness though, that makes enough sense. I don’t understand much about time travel or dimension hopping, so that bit of insight is kind of helpful.” Discorded Scootaloo gave a relieved sigh.
Discorded Scoots, Tell me not to blow your cover?! You just did it for youself! HA! Also, as a side note, compliment your doll next time you see it.
“Because self confidence is TOTALLY at my command right now.” Discorded Scootaloo deadpanned.
Dissy: Does this mean Discord's effect is wearing off?
“Well…yes…and no. It seems whenever I have a sudden sense of self worth, my color comes back a little. But when things go bad again, like I KNOW they will, it fades again.”
To Dissy,
Hello. I am a random multiverse traveler. If I see an evil discord do I have your permission to turn him into Swiss cheese using high velocity explosive rounds? please say yes, PLEASE SAY YES!
“You can try all you feel like, but I’m telling you right now, it’s not going to end well on your side. I can guarantee that.”
Scoots, how do you think the Doctor will react to your sudden change when you see him next?
And about the whole change thing, don't panic. It was bound to happen at some point but that's the worst of it. I think...
“I’m sure The Doctor has seen a lot weirder things than this before. The guy has a time machine, which in itself is already freaky enough. Although I don’t have any way of knowing unless he shows up for whatever reason, I doubt he’d be very surprised.”
D.S: I know this is going to sound really terrible...but I think you should try your best to stay angry, and keep your coat gray. I can't tell you why, really. I know that if we try to reveal too much about the future, you won't be able to hear us. Let's just say...I know of a place you might be going soon, and as long as you don't show any color, you'll be safe. I'm sorry I can't tell you more. Consider yourself warned...and good luck. You'll need it.
“…Well that’s a new one. Don’t think I’ve seen any of you telling me to keep staying a bitter and angry little bitch that does nothing but complain yet. I just…I REALLY don’t want to stay this way. I never did.” She said, hanging her head sadly.
To D.S
Have you ever wanted to be a boxer? I always saw you as a boxer.
“I tried getting my Cutie Mark in boxing a while before Discord captured me. Stupid punching bag was bucking IMMOVABLE. The stallion that foalsat myself and those two insufferable fillies that I dared to call my friends had been a boxer at one point. From what he told me, it ended in injuries…a LOT of injuries.”
Discorded Scootaloo’s memories of those times were just as clear as before, but her perception had severely changed since then, and she now considered her so called “happiness” to be nothing but her living a complete lie.
“Mmph. What a joke.” She bitterly remarked.
To Dissy: Rain Catcher mentioned Twilight Sparkle, that is your chance, she know about Discord, who knows, maybe in this dimension she still have the Elements of Harmony, also she defeated Discord before so you can try.
“There is something I don’t understand regarding Twilight. Rain Catcher said that Twilight Sparkle is Lightning Blitz’s adopted mother or something like that. I’ve also heard The Doctor say that he had gotten involved with my other self’s life before. So that makes me wonder, what reason would The Doctor have for messing with this universe before? It’s not like he’s really…much of a meddling type of pony…alien…whatever. Anyway, knowing how The Doctor is with his TARDIS, I’m starting to wonder if he was referring to the Twilight Sparkle of this dimension, or one of another…uggh. Freaking time travel.” Discorded Scootaloo put a hoof to her forehead. Thinking too much about the effects time travel can have and the mechanics around it gave her a severe headache.
“Okay, if I ever see this dimension’s Twilight, maybe I’ll see what she knows, but just…damn I don’t understand how dimensional travel works.”
Discorded Scoots: Why don't you find the Doc and save your parents. I do believe that was a time machine he had. But you would have to find a way to do it without him seeing. He isn't keen on messing with time like that.
~ The Professor
“It’s definitely a decent idea, but it’s not like I have The Doctor at my beck and call to show up whenever I want. Celestia knows where that nut is right now. And not to mention I have no clue how to drive the TARDIS.”
Dear Scoot: What do you think of rainbow dash? Is she still your idol? p.s. can you fly yet? now that you're a teen?
“I’ve already answered th-…wait, my wings?” Discorded Scootaloo flared her wings upward and turned her head to get a good look at them. As expected, they were quite a lot bigger than they had previously been, more resembling her current age group. All she could do when she laid her eyes upon them was simply stare in awe.
To DS: theres an upside to the sudden change 1: you missed out the annoying stages before it. 2: have you tried flying yet? Your wings are bigger!
D.S just saying scoots, now would be a good time to test i your recent growth affected your wings somehow.
Discorded Scootaloo almost didn’t pay any attention this time, being a little mesmerized by her wings.
“W-Well…from what I remember, my wings were about the same size as every other colt and filly around, and all of THEM could fly just fine, so I don’t know if that was even my problem…But…” Discorded Scootaloo had been convinced she would never be able to fly after so many failed attempts in the past, and had given up on trying a long time ago. Discord’s influence on her psyche hadn’t helped in this factor.
“…Maybe…maybe it wouldn’t hurt to try…just...nothing death-defying though. ”
