Characters I would consider shipping with Discord but likely do not have the stamina to write:

Twilight (I like the love/hate banter dynamic)
Derpy- yes, DERPY. Because Discord seems to have a thing for shy, adorkable pegasi, so I can see him going for her type.

Other than Fluttershy, here are other characters I've shipped Discord with in my stories:

Tirek
Celestia
Baast
Xolotl (my own character and a total total bastard)

She is the princess of the sun, she holds all her little ponies in her heart. She has shielded Equestria for at least a thousand years. When the lord of chaos enslaved the ponies with his unrule of chaos, she stood with her sister and tricked the trickster. When the dark unicorn enslaved the crystal ponies she banished the dark lord but was unable to save the crystal ponies. And when her sister succumbed to nightmare and darkness, she turned her greatest weapon against her own flesh and

Discord is often mentioned as the most difficult character to write. He's certainly one that a lot of writers seem to struggle with. I've been told that I wrote him fairly well in "Discord and Harmony", and I've been working on some of his incoming scenes for "A Dream of Sunny Days" lately. I figured I'd put some of my thoughts about him on paper, and list some of the issues to avoid when writing him.

Even as I write this, I know that there is a 90% chance of this turning into a late-game chapter for Forgotten, but I digress.

Sprout Cloverleaf.

Our deputy-turned-sheriff-turned-emperor-turned-stallion-in-chief was a pretty good villain for A New Generation. You don't get much better duos than Ken Jeong and off-the-rails dictators.

What is a Zipp? A Rainbow Dash clone? An unsympathetic pony and sister? A strawblueberry scoop of ice cream on a snow cone horse?

So I finally stumbled across a YouTube upload of Saturday's episode (at least I think it was Saturday's. I still haven't seen the Nightmare Night one, so I'm a little mixed up). I love it. I love it so much that I'm blogging about it immediately after watching it at 5 in the morning (don't judge). But not quite enough to take screencaps.

One of them is a farmer who is pragmatic about looking after her home and family.

The other is a farmer with a tendency to be incredibly stubborn and angry.

So clearly the top one is Applejack and the bottom is Limestone, right?

Let's delve into Applejack and Limestone and figure why they might not be so different from each other after all...

THIS IS THE GREATEST CARTOON CHARACTER I’VE EVER SEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! She’s like Pinkie Pie mixed with Cozy Glow, but unlike Cozy, the writers like Luan get away with her evil sadism!!!!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT’S WHAT WE LIKE TO SEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Ever have those moments when you watch a show and a random line from a character makes you realize something and appreciate the scene itself in a new way? I had that when I watched the second episode of S7. Starlight is teaching Trixie magic and the great magnificent manages to turn an apple into a teacup. Trixie is adorably ecstatic about it and says that it is the first time she has ever managed to do real magic.

And no, it's not clickbait.

Wow! A post about Mykan that is not a critique of his series or a link to an mst or a response post! make a wish people.
No, I still don't like the guy (I blocked him) but one has to give credit where is due.

While he is known for hating giving characters complex personalities because they hold back the plot, he, perhaps unwillingly ,wrote an actual complex character.
Who is this complex character?

After a chat with BezierBallad, I came up with this headcanon/analysis of To Change A Changeling after we both pointed out how Pharynx’s voice changes from the beginning to end.

Now, I don’t know whether what I’m about to say was intentional or not but here we are, and I’m going to say yes because I’m one of those people.

And so here we find ourselves yet again, on the verge of another word-vomit blog, like that one time I rambled about how But Keep Discord was a sloppy attempt of an intentionally shippy episode. And Fluttershy is involved again. I even referenced her in passing in the
