Spike thought about it for a moment, mostly the part about Discord making a promise over his magic, which, if one were being honest, is the very thing that makes Discord... Discord. Along with the memory of how badly he turned out when Tirek removed it from him... and for him to swear on that, made him believe that he was actually being genuine.
Discord never lost his magic though.... His eyes didn't dull and tirek got like no power from him - a literal god. Discord played tirek and everypony since the beginning of that season. He made sure twilight didn't value herself more than her friends with the plunder seeds and then made sure she valued him as a friend by pretending to be sick. And then he knew he could do some chaos for a while to get twilight her key. Plus he can sense magical imbalances, so even when tirek first came back it would have been enough for discord to take note. He's playing dumb and everypony is falling for it. That's how intelligent and powerful he truly is. Plus he faked that he couldn't teleport straight to chrysalis just to see what plays out. He wouldn't want to loose his ruse by freeking out as soon as something could go wrong.

I am glad you enjoyed it.
Yeah. He is. He is bipedal and just a foot or so shorter then Discord.
Yeah, Spike! And not only is it gay... it's homosexual!
Also: Why have him use 'hay' instead of 'hell' just for him to drop an f-bomb in the same sentence xD?
