Chapter 28 - Those left behind - Part 3

Sombra was upset.

And whenever he felt like that, he would go up to the one responsible and teach them why they shouldn’t ever made him upset. Except in this occasion, there was no clear guilty party that could be swiftly punished by their actions.

Today had been nothing but a disappointment after another.

First was the complete waste of time that was “waiting for Chrysalis” who had to ruin everything by playing fool, not letting him use his well-prepared-in-advance speech to destroy her spirits. Second, was his inability to find those mutts so he could assign them an task for his future plans when he finally recovered the grimoire he handed over to Trixie in exchange for her cooperation.

And speaking of Trixie…

The moment she stood up and screeched an insult towards him, was so unexpected that when she fled the scene, Sombra stood there bewildered. And when you are in such a state you are very open to suggestions.

That is why when some girl shouted. “What are you waiting for?! Go after her!” He did so without complain, even forgoing his shirt as he gave chase after the wayward girl. It wasn’t until his body decided to remind him of his injuries that he started to question what he was doing.

‘Why am I even doing this?’

Why should he concern himself for the well-being of others? Why should he care about that girl’s extreme reaction? Weren’t better things that he could be doing?

That was what Sombra’s ego reminded him of; to care of oneself more so than others. But even that part of his psyche couldn’t explain this feeling that wanted him to continue. It was some sort of hot feeling on the back of the head that pinched him slightly.

Then, Sombra internalized both thoughts and feelings to try to come up with an answer to this strange situation. And by applying the knowledge taught to him by society at large, he rationalized he was doing this because he probably felt like he hadn’t repaid her enough for her actions from yesterday.

Yes, that made sense right? I mean, what else could push him to go against his own ego but his own self-imposed rules of adequate conduct…right?

Sombra continued to give chase through the empty hallways, sparing people from watching him topless and causing girls (and some boys) to blush and guys to feel out-of-shape in comparison; despite the lead she had on him, he was able to trail her by following the sounds of her crying, which in turn intensified the strange hot feeling on the back of his head.

The chase continued until finally both were outside the building.

“Halt!” Sombra yelled after Trixie as she haphazardly crossed the street with cars coming very close to hurting her. Thankfully after she was safely on the other side of the street she heeded his command and stopped. “Fool! You could’ve gotten run over!”

Despite his terrible timing and selection of words to show concern, Trixie still remained and stopped her escape. And it was at that exact moment when Sombra realized that he had zero idea of what to do or say next. He hadn’t planned anything and when he was chasing her he operated on the assumption that the moment he reached her would be the end of it. And now that he reached that point, he was speechless.

“What do people say in this sort of situations?” He was so at loss that he didn’t even realized he asked that out-loud. But it seemed that it had been enough for Trixie, since she turned to face Sombra who remained on the opposite boardwalk. Sombra took notice of her appearance that looked raddled; her eyes were red and the make-up she wore was smeared.

Whatever it was that made her upset, was doing a real number on her.

Sombra tried to inquire some more to make some sense out of this, but before he could even utter a thing, Trixie did something that frankly, left him flabbergasted. She brought up her fist in front of her and then raised her middle finger.

Now, Sombra had been on the receiving end of that gesture many times, but this was the first time he had been flipped by someone looking this upset. The strange combination of sad and anger was sort of surreal actually. But the spell of her gesture soon broke off as a stopping bus came between them breaking the visual contact they had.

The shirtless boy took this as an opportunity to cross the street to get to Trixie, but when he finally crossed the street, Trixie was nowhere to be seen. That is until a bus window opened and a blue hand flipped him off again as the bus move drove away.

If that wasn’t upsetting enough, a few moments later a police car passed by and someone shouted at him.

“See ya later Somby!” The whole thing happened so fast it took him a couple of seconds to realize who that person was.

“Discord?”

After trying and failing to get any concrete information of what happened with Discord, Sombra was told that classes were suspended for the day, meaning he was no longer needed as a Model, ruining another thing of his day. Not to mention, when he looked for his shirt he found it missing with probably someone else taken it.

So when he had to make a phone call so to be picked up from school and get a new clean shirt, it reminded him of his embarrassing past at elementary school.

Indeed today had been a terrible day.

He almost wished for another fight with that Gas Masked lackey of Chrysalis just so he could have someone to beat to a bloody pulp.

[x-x-x]

Chrysalis wasted no time after they had been left go by the Principals that she boarded the first bus to go back to the city. She had places to go and money to be made. Ever since Everfree crumbled to the ground things had been going downhill for her.

No longer had the same tight hold she used to have over the powers surrounding Everfree. In fact she had to relinquish some of her power after she had been effectively insulated from her generals and soldiers.

So if she wanted to keep the power she had left, she needed to step up on her game, otherwise others would eat her alive. But being so far away from her troops wasn’t the only problem. Now that she had to do ACTUAL schoolwork was going to consume precious time she couldn’t afford.

Before she could skip classes and not be bothered about stupid things like homework because she had worked her way to obtain the power to do so, either by blackmail and intimidation or by seducing or paying off some of the teachers. Things now she couldn’t actually do without manpower or money.

Of course she could also get herself a sect of followers that obeyed her every command and did her homework for her, but the idea of seducing and having to deal with preppy kids to keep their interest in her was too much. She wasn’t THAT desperate.

So the plan was to get to the city, visit some people, remind them of their loyalties, collect some ‘protection’ money, maybe even pull a little con so she could gather enough money to finance an “investigation” on her teacher and principal’s lives, dig up some dirt and hold it over them so she could have a more “pleasant stay” at Canterlot High.

Ha! Maybe even get enough influence over them to convince the Principal to transfer her to another school, nearer to where she needed to be with her soldiers, or maybe even get rid of those other nuisances like Sombra and Starlight. If only they took care of themselves like Discord had done.

She couldn’t believe the idiot had done something so stupid. It all reeked of a sham. But either genuine or fake, Discord’s actions will have repercussions even the idiot could never fathom.

And she was the one who will reap the seeds to her benefit!

But before all of that, there was someplace else she needed to go first.

[x-x-x]

Inside one of many poorly lit alleys of the big city, a teen with light blue hair, greenish skin and dressed in a navy blue coat was waiting patiently to make contact with an individual of interest.

It was none other than Chrysalis very own general. The master spy known as “The Camouflage”: Morpho.

He had specifically chosen to meet at this hour, middle of the day, because no one would’ve suspected that a meeting this important could take place other than in the middle of the night. Sometimes playing against the cliché paid off.

As he was waiting for his contact to arrive, he felt a vibration on his pocket, signifying that someone had urgent information for him. It was one of his rules to never, EVER, be contacted through the phone unless it was of the upmost important news. An even then, this was but one of many phones he owned under different names and different phone providers, which he would change and rotate constantly between models. The Phone Companies Customer Service REALLY hated his guts.

Morpho opened the message to find a locked file which was sent by one of his informants who most likely got the information from other informants under them. Even now, the informant that sent the message was under the assumption that he had sent it to another faceless minion instead of Morpho himself, who would resend the message anyways to start another chain that would eventually go back to him again to another phone.

It was a convoluted system in which nobody knew each other and nobody knew who sent what to whom. That way, if anyone tried to trace him would have a massive headache trying to figure it out.

Morpho opened up the text file and read the important news.

“Huh? Discord was arrested.” The spy muttered slightly surprised by the news. “I’ll have to make some calls.” It would be foolish not to follow the situation and see how it developed. For now, he had to re-send the message to another face-less minion of his.

Just as he was done resending the text file, he also sent a new message to have someone to find out what precinct they took Discord to.

“I see that you are keeping yourself busy.” A voice called out as a newcomer made his way from the shadows.

“It’s been a long time, Rex.” Morpho greeted as he put away his phone. Rex was a dark brown-skinned guy with murky green hair dressed in an equally dark green hooded coat. Clearly dressing up wasn’t a concept for this guy.

“It’s Rep! Not Rex!” the green head corrected annoyed. “You people better remember my name correctly.”

“Hn Sorry.” Morpho said but it was clear by his voice that he really didn’t mean it.

“So? What are you buying?” Rep asked as he opened up his hood to reveal several pockets inside. “I got good sh*t right here.“

Morpho shook his head side to side. “If I wanted to buy your merchandize then I would’ve talked to a “Wooly”, not you.”

“If you ain’t buying then what the hell you want?”

“To talk business.” Morpho stated with a smile. “More specifically, I want to talk business with Catrina.”

“Nah ah! Nobody speaks with the boss lady!” Rep shook his head candidly. “Much less a top dog in Chrysalis gang!” In fact talking with anyone associated with her was prohibited unless it was to sell some merchandize. “If she wants to apologize for what she did then she better…”

“I’m not here on behalf of Chrysalis.” The spy promptly interrupted. “In fact if Catrina were to allow me 5 minutes of her time, I assure you that we’ll reach a deal that will greatly benefit the two of us.”

“And why’s that?”

“Because Chrysalis reign will be no more.”

[x-x-x]

“Girls, I’m not so sure about this.” Scorpan said, showing how nervous he was by his voice alone. “Do you honestly think this will work?”

“Absolutely” Applebloom said without a hint of doubt. “This is gonna work!”

“Are you sure?”

“It worked for me and Rarity, I’m sure it will work for you.” Sweetie Belle reassured him and gave him a big smile. “You just gotta believe!”

“I don’t know… I don’t want to doubt your methods but this all just feels…a little feminine.” There was no other way to describe it.

“That’s what I’ve been thinking too.” Scootaloo agreed with his sentiment. She had suggested other ideas before the others settled for this one she couldn’t support wholeheartedly. “I mean, Rarity is a whole lot different than Scorpan’s brother.”

“I’m sure the principle works the same.” Sweetie said a little defensively, not wanting others to doubt her idea. “Remember that it also worked for Applebloom and Applejack too.”

“Yeah, I’m not sure that argument’s acceptable to establish a trend.”

“You were the one who said that you’d try anything right? And that you already tried everything else.” The little redhead reminded him, “So maybe this is crazy enough that it will actually work.”

“I-I guess.” He said still not really convinced that was even a real argument outside of movies.

[x-x-x]

Discord took a final look around and then took a deep breath.

Now it was time to do this.

“The time I pay my crimes was set for today.
And now all the colors have turned to gray.
The Man told me freedom is so far away,
I won’t see the outside colors ever again.

Turn me into stone, is what they trying to do.
Turn me into stone, I won’t longer move.
Turn me into stone, freedom all remove.
They say the unwanted discord is finally gone.

As long I’m trapped in stone there’s nothing to do.
Try and make a move but the law says no.
Wanna tell a joke but the rest won’t hear it.
This cold harsh jail’s trying to break my spirit.

Turned into stone, I was put in a yard.
Turned into stone, won’t let me die.
Turned into stone, just hear my pleas.
Don’t say that little Discord is now totally gone.
No, they won’t let us go for a thousand years.
Cause now that Discord is gone there nothing but cheers.

As he finished his prison song, the people around him couldn’t help but clap.

“Thank you, you all are too kind.” Discord said basking in the applause. That is until a party-popper decided to show its ugly mug.

“You know you aren’t in jail right? This is just a detention cell.” Said a woman who was looking at him strangely from outside his holding cell. "You should know by know. You been here lots of times before."

Thankfully Discord wasn’t the only one who got annoyed by that comment.

“Way to suck the fun out of everything. No wonder your name is Strict Guideline.” Commented a very casual dressed man, with messy dark hair who had liked Discord’s song.

“And you never take things seriously, Hotrod.” Strict Guideline accused with a finger. Unlike the man, she was dressed very prim and proper. Not a single hair out of place.

“And that’s why people like me more than you.” Hotrod shrugged and then put up his hand in the air. “Am I right?”

“Totally!” Another person, a somewhat chubby man who was passing by, high fived Hotrod.

“Boil!” Strict said scandalized.

“Sorry, I’m a sucker for High Fives.” Boil admitted not the least embarrassed.

“You know it!” Hotrod brought his hand up once more and Boil high fived him again.

“That’s my man Boil!” Discord also raised his palm joining in the fun as the chubby man also high fived him.

“I see that you’re having fun, detectives.” An imposing large man with dark chocolate skin and a circle beard.

“Hey, Sarge!/Sergeant Falcon!” Detective Hotrod greeted casually while Detective Guideline stood in attention.

“I’m going to the break room for some coffee.” Detective Boil excused himself and walked away.

“You two should be doing your jobs instead of socializing with the detainees.” Sgt. Falcon admonished the two detectives under his charge.

“Hey Sarge! How are the twins?” Discord asked from inside his cell, gaining the man’s full attention.

“Good thanks for asking.” The man said a little curtly, before he visually relaxed and the pulled out his phone, “In fact a few days ago was their school play, aren’t they cute?”

“They sure are!” Discord nodded with a smile and looked at the photos in the phone, “They are the cutest pair of trees I’ve ever seen.”

“I know right?”

“Um, Sergeant? Didn’t you want to tell us something?” Guideline asked trying to get on track.

“Oh yes, I do.” The dark man said remembering what his orders were, but first, “Sorry Discord, some other time.”

“Don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere.”

“Actually…” Sgt. Falcon then cleared his throat. “Hotrod, Guideline, please escort the detainee to questioning room # 3.”

“Why? Are the others occupied?” The boy behind bars couldn’t help but joke earning a small chuckle from the male detective and a annoyed look from the female one.

“Sure thing Sarge!”
“As you order sir.”

[x-x-x]

After what felt like an eternity of being left alone inside questioning room # 3 and handcuffed to the table. Discord was getting impatient. At least on the holding cell he could make conversation with the detectives and fellow detainees.

“Man! I’m so bored!” Discord whined as he banged his head on the metal table.

“It’s only been 20 minutes.” A new voice said, making Discord look up and see the newcomer.

“Well, in this modern age of fast internet access, it is impossible for a teen my age to stand still.”

“I guess you’re right.” The newcomer man nodded displaying next to no emotion on his face.

“So? What is the Precinct Captain doing interrogating a simple minor like me?” The handcuffed boy teased with a smile. “Are you finally going to put me away Captain Bolt? Want me to sign my confession?”

“Actually, I’m just here to inform you that he is right outside of this room.” The Police Captain calmly stated.

“Who? My lawyer assigned by the state?”

“No. I’m talking about HIM.” The man repeated with more emphasis finally cluing in Discord as to whom he was referring to.

“You mean…!?” Discord uttered in surprise, and before he could even finish his sentence, said man outside the room finally entered.

“Discord.” The man said with no hint of humor in his voice.

“Police Commissioner of the Canterlot City Police Department, Maxwell Entropy.” Discord identified him first by his title and the many badges he wore.

“You can call me dad.”

No jodas. Yo soy español

Guau. Ahora sí que me siento estúpido tras haber escrito todas esas reseñas en inglés. Pienso seguir haciéndolo, por la costumbre más que nada y porque me ayuda a practicar.
Pero esto tiene mucha gracia

[Skye Mist]

That's cool, it is a surprise to meet someone who also speak spanish, I'm sure thete are a lot of us out there be we never announce it.
(Especially since this site hosts only English fics)

As for your kickass reviews, I'm fine either way which language you use. But I'm sure if you use Spanish, people who bother to read the comments are gonna be like: "what the hell does this text wall say?"

Oh, wouldn´t it be fun the confuse the ever living shit out of everyone here? Nah, I´m a nice guy. Plus, they´d probably figure out what I was doing. I think.

By the way, I´m still gonna need some time to read your last update; I´m kinda sick right now. The disease that never leaves, it seems.
If I feel better later tonight I´ll give it a look and write a review.
Take care!

Thanks, and I hope you get well soon!

[Black Umbra]

Finally after a long time out (Job and college) I catch up with the story, I like what has happen until now mostly with sombra that he say out what his mind think without him realizing that he effect someone and of course the revelation of Discord father is the Police Commissioner that surprise me a bit.
And it's good to see other people that speak Spanish too here, it's a bit rare seeing someone on a English page that speak Spanish. (Es bueno saber que hay otros dos que hablan español)

Muchas gracias por el comentario.

[Unimpressive Chaoslord]

Well, now I´m sure everyone by now thinks I´m writing a book. Well, now they won´t bother me believing I´m doing something that´s actually important.

So, this chapter.
For starters, it was a pretty good pay off to most of the situations you left hanging in the air in the last couple of chapters, and I´m glad for that. Everything falls into place and in a very fluent, natural way. It´s in character, but at the same time it´s not predictable, so you can keep your audience still guessing.

First we start with Sombra, and boy am I glad. I had been looking forward to seeing him again for a while now, especially after the mess he caused. So, yeah, basically like every Sombra appearance thus far in this story
I must say, I really, really enjoyed this portion of the chapter, mainly for two reasons; the course of actions and Sombra´s small analysis of character.

Let´s start with the obvious, Sombra chasing after Trixie shirtless while everyone is looking is pretty hilarious. And also I think I called that one.
Anyway, I really like the pacing of that scene. Sombra is so dumbstruck that he doesn´t even how to react to that. Hell, he doesn´t realize he embarrassed Trixie. I´ll bring that up later, by the way.
So a girl goes and tells him to "GO AFTER HER!"
I´m sure that if Sombra had seen any romantic comedies he would have lampshaded it.
So he goes chasing her around, causing girls and boys alike to blush, which doesn´t surprise me at all. After all, he´s pretty damn hot.
He finally catches up with Trixie, attracts her attention and... Has nothing to say.
I really liked how you pointed out how he believed that reaching her was all he needed to do in order to solve his problem. Again, I´ll bring this up later. But for now I´ll say that this train of thought is pretty hilarious, as if he was playing a videogame and is expecting a cutscene to pop up and keep the plot moving on.
And Trixie turns around, eyes red of crying, make up running, such a sad image. Sees a half naked Sombra and... flips him off.
I admit it; I lost it a little here. Just, the image alone, along how sudden and unexpected this is is enough to make anyone laugh.
I really liked how you played with that cliche, having everyone expect that they would hug or something, but nope, middle finger. And Sombra is pretty good at making an interpretation of the readers´ reaction. "Well, I didn´t see THAT coming".
Priceless, just priceless.
But the best part has to be, without a doubt, when she "disappears from sight" only to reappear on the bus... still flipping him off.
Just imagining Sombra looking at the back window of the bus while Trixie lifts and lowers her arm with her middle finger up is pretty damn hilarious. Hell, I imagined her keeping it up just until the bus turns around the corner. Then she looks behind her and sees all the passengers staring at the teary eyed middle finger raiser teenage girl with a "What the fuck?" expression. That would really make her day after all this crap, wouldn´t it?
But well, that´s a comedic possibility that you can exploit.
And to top this mountain of surrealness Discord comes by and says hello. Again, great timing for the joke, by this point I´m sure Sombra has just given up on logic.
Still, something I really enjoyed about Trixie was that while I was laughing at how surreal everything was, I was also able to take her seriously. I felt her pain, I felt her turmoil, and I really felt sorry for her. You didn´t play her emotions as one big joke, the joke came from the scenario, not her. We are able to pity her because her problem is real and is still given a respectful treatment. And even though you´ve done it several times in the past and keep on doing it, I am still shocked at how good you are at finding the middle ground between drama and comedy. Not just making fun and dramatic scenes equally well, but also mixing the two in the same scene. Bravo.
However, this is the part that interests me the most. Sombra.
Intentionally or not, you´ve opened a door to quite some unsettling theories about this poor bastard.
I used to joke about how crazy he was, but now I´m taking it more seriously. He has some actual psychological problems.
Let´s look at the evidence.
He talks about that time he was almost naked in front of Trixie and doesn´t comprehend how that embarrassed her. He hurts her feelings and still doesn´t understand why.
He explicitly states that he doesn´t give a crap about other people´s feelings or even understanding them, and just attributes it to his own ego.
I think I can fairly reason why Sombra in an actual sociopath.
But then, this wouldn´t make sense with what happens next.
Sure, I´m quick to give the "sociopath" mark to everyone, but Sombra is pretty damn close.
However, Trixe comes in and changes this.
He goes after her because he´s worried that he hurt her. He doesn´t understand at all why he hurt her, but he still wants to fix the situation. He feels something for her, but can´t put his finger on what it is. He mentions it feels weird, but never "uncomfortable". This makes me question whether he is bothered by this but doesn´t care or if he actually enjoys caring for someone other than himself.
He runs after her and when he reaches her and tries to solve the problem, he has nothing to say. That´s when it hit me.
Sombra has never faced any emotional problem before he couldn´t solve by humiliating someone or just beating the crap out of them. He has never had to help anyone, to comfort another person. He had his nose so up his own ass he never tried to help anyone around him. I now really want to meet his parents and find out why this kid is this messed up.
But the point is that when Sombra approaches his situation with Trixie it´s something he doesn´t understand nor has any experience with. He can´t even grasp the freaking problem; how is he supposed to fix it?
Now I am really intrigued about this guy and this whole situation. I am really excited to see how you are planning on patching up their relationship. If you do it at all; it would be pretty unexpected that this was the end of their friendship. But you wouldn´t do that. I hope.
Because for once, Sombra does want to learn, he does want to understand others. That´s a huge step of character development for him. Just, try to play it subtle. Your character´s pacing so far has been great, but this big changes in what in-story has been a couple of days are quite abysmal. You´ve written a lot about them, so it makes sense, but I´m just talking from an in-universe perspective.
So, again, great job at creating such interesting three dimensional characters.

Well, Chrysalis gets another section... that doesn´t really develop her. I mean, we get some interesting insight into her, but there´s nothing that relevant; it feels more like a transition. Again, I´m sure that´s what you intended anyway.
So, Chrysalis used to seduce teachers. You know, I am not the least bit surprised by that. Hell, it´s too perfect. If she got caught she could just accuse said teacher of molesting her and bye! She´s got everyone by the balls; I LOVE IT!

I also like how you connect her influence over people with her role in Equestria as a mind controller. That is pretty neat. I always enjoy the translation from magic to mundane; it makes you push your imagination.
Also, she has plans. Awesome. I also like how she´s going to dig in about Celestia and Luna.
Well, shit. How long until she finds out about the magic? Oh damn it, I´ve just figured out this story´s climax. Now you´ll have to rewrite it MUAHAHAHAHA

Also, Morpho returns! I´m still gonna call him Bane, though.
I like how out of place this scene is just because of how dark and serious it is. I like these villains who can suck all the joy out of the story whenever they are around, as long as there is a colorful entertaining fun villain to level things out. And in this story there´s plenty of them.
Also, great callback to G1. Who else is going to show up as a mafioso? Please tell me you have something planned for Grogar

So, Bane is a traitor. I am not the least bit surprised by this. He always showed to be quite... competent. Hell, one of the best examples of that is shown here! That complex line of telephones? I´m pretty sure that´s a real practice, and if it isn´t you should really dedicate to crime.
I like how devious he is, what a magnificent bastard he is. I do hope he has an interesting motivation; looking for power for the sake of power is a little boring. I mean, sure, it could be entertaining if done well, but it just feels unimaginative.

Also, Scorpan and the CMC about to talk to his brother. This can end soooo well. I do hope this gives us some insight into why Tirek repudiates his brother so much. Again, small transition, nothing much to discuss here.
The CMC helping Scorpan are pretty cute, and each of them are pretty adorable, hell, even Scootaloo is adorable in her skepticism.
Nothing more to say here.

And finally Discord, freaking Discord. Good lord, was this fun.
By the way, do you hear that ringing? Isn´t anyone going to pick up that phone? Because I fucking called it!
Discord dad as a police officer, a commissioner to be exact. I am a genius. Or maybe you thought it was a good idea and followed through.
But let´s start at the beginning.
First off, kudos to you for coming up with a song in English. I know I wouldn´t be able to do that, that´s for sure.
But still, I really enjoyed it.
Also, are you sure that Discord is not, well Discord? Those lyrics were pretty damn specific.

Anyway. Must say I love how chill Discord is about being incarcerated. He´s so damn casual, talking to the guards, joking with them, and they seems to actually like him in return! That´s pretty sweet.
Also, how often does he come here? A lot, that´s for damn sure.
Often enough to joke around them at least.
One part that really made me laugh because of how bait and switch it was is when Stg. Falcon comes in, looks like the typical tough policeman, about to kill the mood and then... exchanges pictures of his kids with Discord. And the idea of Discord finding them cute is adorable on its own.
Then Discord is taken for questioning and we meet Captain Bolt. That´s Dash´s dad, isn´t it?
Awesome.
And finally the big man makes his grand entrance. We even get his full name; Maxwell Entropy. Not bad, ridiculous, but badass ridiculous. Also, thanks for incorporating my suggestion into the story, you sure do that a lot.

From what I´m seeing he appears as the old, serious when needed but kind of chill father, but it´s dumb analyzing his character from a line of dialogue.
Now, into speculation territory. Like, where did Discord get that big entrance on his first day?
Now we freaking now!
Hell, I´m sure his police escort were Hotrod and Boil. I wonder if you´ll address this later into the story.
But still, twenty chapters later and it´s still funny. Good work, you earn a cookie.
Discord does seem kind of caught offguard by the appearance of his father. That means that he either fears him, doesn´t want him to know he´s gotten into trouble or just isn´t used to seeing him whenever he gets arrested.
With a name like Entropy one can only wonder.

So, I think that´s it. I´ve spent literally an hour and a half just to write this; I hope it´s useful.
Take care, and keep up your awesome work! I´ll see you in my next review, hopefully soon!

Brooklyn 99 reference lol

[AdanteDazzle]

Hahaha I knew it was Brooklyn Nine-Nine the moment I saw the Sergeant had twins.
