It's a big day for everyone, isn't it?

[notmakingsense]

Well, well, well. Look at what we've all been waiting for.

[And it seems that a lot of people are excited about it. But Discord is very excited.]

It's good all around I suppose. The heroes are heroes, the student has joined the teachers, and now nopony can ever threaten me with those stupid rocks ever again.

All in all, a good day for Equestria. Other than reliving my defeat that is.

...Oh, you're wondering what's in that case, aren't you?

Well, don't think I'm about to tell you~

Just because the elements are gone doesn't mean something else can't show up to stop you if Fluttershy can't keep you in check anymore. Whatever is in that case is likely to be the elements' replacement or new copies of the elements. After all, the Element of Magic changed after Twilight became a princess off-screen.

[Yeah he still doesn't fully trust Discord. Eggman tricked him once before so Tails isn't as forgiving as he used to be.]

...Also mun says Twilight's friends were being kind of "dick-ish" as she put it when they made her go back to Ponyville just because she's a princess. We get their logic that Equestria will need her if they fail to find Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, but it still seemed kinda mean. At least they apologized for it.

Oh, the elements have worn out their welcome. What's in the box is probably far better than six stupid trinkets. And putting me back in stone will do nothing to stop me. Honestly, why does everyone think that it'll work anymore?

[He just doesn't get you heroes.]

And yes, my mun had that sentiment as well. I suppose in dire moments, anypony can make stupid decisions.

[mommy_twi]

Watch yourself Discord.

The elements might not be around for now, but don't think for a second you're off the hook.

[notmakingsense]

Am I ever?

Honestly, I'm starting to grow tired of these sentiments all the time.

Don't any of you have anything nice to say? Or are those only directed at your own kind?

[mommy_twi]

Trust isn't given, it's earned.

A pony...or rather draconequus in this case, is judged by how he treats those around him.

And while I'll admit you are 'behaving' you haven't fully earned Equestria's trust just yet. The only reason you have any kind of trust at all is because Princess Celestia and Fluttershy are willing to show you some and will to stick their necks out for you.

And by the way; calling the very objects that helped save Equestria multiple times, and help unite my daughter and her friends 'stupid rocks' isn't helping. And that's not even bringing up all the other less than helpful things you've done today.

[Take a picture while Twilight is sobbing will you?]

[notmakingsense]

It's hard to gain trust when everypony thinks you're going to turn on them a moment later and put you back in your inanimate, painful, mind scarring prison.

[He glares at her... but it quickly falls through as he notices Twilight sobbing. A box... two boxes of tissues appear at her hooves.]

Considering that Celestia and Fluttershy are the only ones to give me benefit of the doubt regardless. Although, who are you to give a care about it anyways?

You're daughter's saved all of Equestria again. You must be very proud.

[mommy_twi]

Don't act like you wouldn't do the same thing if it would give you a laugh Discord.

[The gesture is nice, but it's a little late for that Discord.]

Being a citizen of Equestria, and having my daughter and her friends live next to the living embodiment of chaos and unpredictability is more than ample enough reason to care.

Of course I'm proud of Twilight. She's a better mare than I ever was.

[notmakingsense]

No, I would not.

[He's dead serious at this point.]

I don't live next to them. And you've seen what they've done with the elements. Pull me from anywhere in Equestria, at any time, and then threaten me with imprisonment at the first moment of suspicion.

...But you should be proud. She's quite the Equine.

[mommy_twi]

You of all beings should should know what hyperbole is Discord. And it certainly wasn't unjustified to think that, don't forget those plants were your fault to begin with, and your intentions with them were anything but good.

I am. I just hope she's ready for what will come ahead.

[notmakingsense]

It's unjustified to think that I'm the cause of every little problem that plagues Equestria. And can I help it if I forgot about a plan I made up a thousand years ago, back when I wasn't who I am today?

[Geeze, you ponies need to lighten up.]

Oh, she'll be fine. She's got her friends along for the ride, and me, if she asks nicely.
