FredMSloniker's Recieve Only Confusion (Chinchillax's "Send Only Memories")

Author's Note:

[Random][Sci-Fi]

This is a continuation of Chinchillax's Send Only Memories (7,716 words, [Dark][Crossover][Sci-Fi])

SEND ONLY SPOILERS: A massive marquee of text passes through Equestria, triggering a panic attack and memory dump in Discord, who is actually Equestria's creator. He gets Celestia to destroy the text crawl, convincing her that it will lead to Equestria's destruction, but not before Twilight manages to record it. Twilight translates it against Celestia's orders: Enough matter has been taken from the primary universe to create pocket ones like Equestria that gravity isn't sufficient to overcome expansion. The cycle will end and the universe will die if Equestria doesn't surrender its mass... destroying it in the process. Discord did it to hide from the countless hostile races in the primary universe, but Fluttershy's willingness to sacrifice what she knows for the sake of infinity convinces him to relinquish Equestria. However, a Stranger—one of the crossover elements of the story—shows Discord how to record the entire universe in the electron motion of a single hydrogen atom. He does so, then helps other civilizations prepare themselves for the end of everything. After the universe cycle begins anew, Discord restores Equestria at the moment he stopped it.

"Good news, Twilight! You don't have to worry about the problem anymore."

"What?"

"It turns out the universe just needed to borrow our atoms for a little while! I know, I was surprised too. We just went through the Big Crunch and came out the other side, right as rain! Okay, technically we all died and were replaced by identical clones -"

"What?"

"Oh, don't look at me like that! I'm not the one who did it. That particular Discord died along with the rest of you! Them. And they went out peacefully, in their sleep! Really, you should be thanking me! Him."

"What!?"

"Oh dear. Fresh out of the cloning tank, and already having brain problems. Fluttershy 2.0, would you mind bringing some tea and cookies? I think she could use them."
