//------------------------------// // L49 Operation Disc-ordered // Story: A little loopy. // by FaelaArts //------------------------------// “Discord, what are you doing here?” Celestia stood up from the throne as the Draconequus walked over. The strangest thing was he was wearing a suit, business glasses, holding a briefcase, and had a small filly following him dressed in similar attire. Discord pushed his glasses up slightly, and held out a stack of papers. “This is a list of reforms and changes which will effectively half the amount of paperwork you have to do, and quarter the amount Luna will have to do. I could have offered you the quarter, but considering how jealous Luna can get, I opted to give it to her.” Discord waited as Celestia scanned the documents, and her wings went limp with shock. “B-B-But, you’re Discord!” Celestia blinked, feathers poofing, and fell to the floor like a statue. Hearing her slam, Luna opened the door, diving toward her and defending her from Discord. Discord sighed, and explained the situation calmly and logically, holding out a set of papers for Luna. Same reaction. “So, my dear assistant, what do you suppose we do now?” Discord raised an eyebrow at Sweetie, who pushed her fake glasses up and smiled. Pulling out a set of documents of her own, she handed them over, and Discord smiled. “Oh I do love when things work in my favor. Er, I mean. Ah yes, this is most adequate. Good work Miss Belle.” Discord coughed, and glanced to the side. Snapping his fingers, he levitated the princesses back up off the ground, and gently woke them from their shock. “Alternatively, if you do not wish to do any paperwork, sign these papers that will make me the ruling monarch of Equestria.” Discord waited as they blinked, and Celestia burned them quickly, pulling up her set of notes. Coughing, she glanced to Luna. “No uh, we think your reforms are most welcome, we are just shocked that they are coming from you Discord.” Celestia glanced to Luna, who gave a confused shrug. No, none of them had any clue what Discord was doing. Discord bowed, took Celestia’s hoof, and gently kissed it. “Please, call me Order. I have reformed, after all.” Discord glowed brightly, and transformed into a less jumbled looking dragon. He was still sporting a beard, of course. Celestia and Luna shared a glance, blinked, and fainted. “Oh dear, I ponder if this might be too much for them.” Discord poofed back into his normal form, and folded his arms, pursuing his lip. Sweetie giggled, and Discord let a small smile fall on his face. Sure, this filly reminded him of an old wizard that had tried to use him to power a spell, but he could see she was still a kind soul. If only she was just a little more chaotic, then he could show her how to use chaos magic. Sure, being this filly’s object of entertainment for a loop was far from a fitting role in his opinion. And not to mention the disgusting magic swaggering around her sickened him. But it wasn’t like it hurt him to allow this filly to live out her pranks, especially when they were very good ones. Now if only he could murder that wizard.
