Discord | MLP: fim

[1000yearsstoned]

[Super old lord of chaos previously encased in stone at your service!

1: Venture city is in serious peril! Dinosaur soldiers wrecking everything, Deviobots ransacking the city, and villains of all sorts and kinds joining in the chaos. And in the middle of all this destruction, is Discord, sitting back in his floating movie seat, munching popcorn and watching as the city burned.

He didn't even have to do anything!

3: There's a... very strangely dressed man, standing in Hero's plaza, looking at the spot where the statue of an evil sorcerer once stood. Come to think of it, the man looks eerily similar to the disappeared statue...

6: You've been hurled through a portal in time! But it looks like you're still in the area where Venture city will stand one day. Unfortunately, while you're enjoying your stay, you're likely to run into the evil sorcerer that has been causing chaos around here for a very long time.

Maybe he'll send you home? Maybe.]

[dropkick_princess]

Good riddance. Who even put that statue there in the first place? Now that it's gone, they can replace it with a statue of me.

[Not yet noticing the guy who looks just like the now missing statue...]

[1000yearsstoned]

Hmm? [He gives the girl a glance, the softest of smiles creeping onto his lips as he realizes that she's completely oblivious.]

Oh, I wouldn't say good riddance. It was a nice statue, been here in this square for a very long time.

[He turns to her.] Have you ever heard the story about it?

[dropkick_princess]

Psh, no accounting for taste.

[Blunt Mint is blunt]

Who cares? It was just a big eye sore, and now it's gone~

[Oh so very blunt... and she still doesn't realize who she's talking to. Then again, all she remembers was that it was some weird old dude. She didn't pay it much special attention]

[1000yearsstoned]

[If she looks really hard, she could probably see Discord's eye twitching erratically until he hides it and continues as if she didn't say anything.]

Well I think it was a very handsome statue, important as well. Without that statue, I think our fair city wouldn't have come to be in the first place.

[He leans in, his tone hushed.] Between you and me, it wasn't actually a statue.

[dropkick_princess]

[She leans away]

Don't touch me, creepy old man!

[... she's kind of talking over the last line Discord is saying, so she doesn't really hear what he said...]

[1000yearsstoned]

[He leans back, letting out a sigh. This new generation has a lot to learn...]

I'm not... ugh...

Look, haven't you noticed anything odd about the fact that the statue is missing? Or the strange phenomena happening around the city?

[dropkick_princess]

...

...

I haven't seen creepy old perverts like you around until just now.

[1000yearsstoned]

...I'm not a-Ugh, forget it!

[He gestures to the spot where the statue once stood.] A grand and evil sorcerer was encased in stone a thousand years ago and was placed here as some sort of twisted punishment.

And now the statue isn't there anymore.

Do you realize what this means now? [He's hoping he's getting somewhere]

1/2

[dropkick_princess]

[She looks at the spot where the statue was, then she looks at the man who seems rather intent on explaining things she doesn't seem to care about...]

[... now that she's finally paying attention, it clicks.]

2/2

[dropkick_princess]

[Think fast, grand and evil sorcerer, you got a princess flying at your face with a drop kick]

[1000yearsstoned]

[The first thing that goes through Discord's mind is relief that this brat finally understood what he was saying.

The second thing was Mint's foot. Quite literally, actually, as Discord splits himself into two halves so she passes right through him.

The two sides laugh as she passes, eventually forming back into one Discord.]

Finally! I was wondering if you'd ever get it.

[dropkick_princess]

Maybe if you spent less time being a pervert, I would've gotten it earlier!

...

Say, you don't happen to have any ancient and powerful relics, do you ...?

This guy might be my ticket to World Domination...!

[1000yearsstoned]

You still think I'm some sort of pervert? Seriously!

[Bleh, he doesn't even care.]

...Hmm? Magical artifacts? I do happen to have a few...

[dropkick_princess]

Really? Give them to me, and I'll consider making you one of my ministers!

[Right to the chase...]

[1000yearsstoned]

A minister! [Discord laughs again, although he seems to be thinking the offer over.]

Well, before I give away any magical artifacts, I should know who I is I'm giving them to.

[He's giving you his attention, Mine~]

[dropkick_princess]

Fair enough. Princess Mint, and don't you forget it!

[1000yearsstoned]

A... princess. [Even if Discord kept his tone chipper, the disgust was clear as day on his face. He shook it off as best he could and bowed slightly.]

I am Discord, lord of chaos and disharmony, and keeper of magical artifacts.

[electricalcurrent]

The dinosaurs were met with force fists, blasting them back and unconscious now. Then there were blades out now for the robots, slicing them to ribbons as her thrusters activated on the back. Sliding and slashing around the waiting Discord. She didn't notice him at first until she thrust to a stop. A few clicks and responses eventually lead to her thrusters converting to a solar panels before she turned towards the man.

"Who in the Abyss are you?" a chirpy, female voice came from the 5 foot, six suited individual.

[1000yearsstoned]

"Ooh!" Discord laughed, clapping his hands together as the fight went down. It was always nice seeing others throw themselves into the mix. It's considerably less nice when he sees that the hero is getting the upper hand though.

He leans forward in his seat, looking down disdainfully at the... whatever he was looking at. "I should be asking the same thing to you." He shovels a handful of popcorn into his mouth. "Just what is it that you're wearing?"

[electricalcurrent]

There was an eye at the top that swiveled to focus on the creature. "A robotic suit," She stated, her tone far less chirpy and far more gritted. The eye on the top of the suit and the eye holes for the wearer seemed to be independent.

"More accurately, me," an electronic, masculine voice replied. There was a sigh from whoever was in the suit as the arms of the suit crossed.

"From what I know about villains back where I'm from though, someone sitting in the middle of the action like nothing is happening tend to be bad guys," she stated matter of factly, like this wasn't her first rodeo.

"Though it would be unwise to make assumptions."

[1000yearsstoned]

Discord's gaze briefly intensified as he heard both voices speak. He almost looked interested in whatever the heck this was.

"Hmm," he reclined in his floating seat, taking this new being, new beings, in. "Well, you'd be wrong if you assumed otherwise."

[electricalcurrent]

Spark moves to get into a combat position but drops it before it was fully formed. Clearly something kept the hero from charging at her at the admission.

"So why are you here then?" she asked instead. She sounded like she was talking from cue cards rather than with her voice before.

[1000yearsstoned]

Discord rolls his eyes, listening to the spiel as though he'd heard it a thousand times.

"Well, if you and your significant other simply must know, I am here because there is chaos."

He gestured around them to the city. Things were being destroyed, innocents hurt, and in the middle of it all, Discord was sitting back and eating popcorn. "It's very wonderful chaos too, so I simply couldn't miss it."

[electricalcurrent]

There was a few moments as they seemed to be mumbling to one another. The armor adjusts, seeming to put a heavier mode into the arms and chest, the thrusters on the back getting smaller as a response.

"Are you a cause of chaos or simply seek it?" She said, her voice far heavier than before. Clearly she had some sort of experience with chaotic elements. Though nothing like Discord.
