...That's enough internet for me today...

[discolight]

What're you talking about mun? You can never have enough internet!

Such a fountain of chaos and knowledge, like Alice down her rabbit hole, you can only go deeper inside the wonderful madness that is this little piece of reality!

Without it you wouldn't know about even half of the things you do, especially when it comes to the geniuses in your world, like Salvador Dali and-

Wait...you're saying I'm saying too much? Silly mun your rules don't apply to this Draconequus, well at least not in the same way is applies to other versions of me.

And when does that give you the right to say you don't deserve your damn element?

[discolight]

Since the fact I'm a loose cannon! Haven't you been paying attention? My body and mind are time bombs that just so happen to be pacified at the moment, but that might not always be the case!

If I'm still the element of magic, and I go off, nopony will be safe, and the rest of the elements are as good as useless.

After all using them without one, was what got me into this mess!

[cruel_kindness]

Then you worth through it, idiot! I'm not just going to sit by and let you hide from yourself! You not being the element of kindness is just the worst possible thing you can do to yourself.

This is exactly what the Old Man wants. Every single one of us-- Me, Fluttershy, Trixie, Rarity, Pinkie Diane, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack-- have all stopped hiding from ourselves and became all the better for it. Now shut up, buck up, and be a better draconequus in spite of the fact that you may lose control. Or do I have to beat some sense into you?

[discolight]

...I'm not hiding...

There's nowhere for me to hide! It's either me or him!

Whether or not I'm still the element of magic, it doesn't matter! I still have a responsibility to you and everyone else!

AND I'M NOT going to to let you or anyone else suffer because of it!

[That last sentence causes Fluttercruel to turn back into Fluttershy and flinch.]

...I... I thought of the exact same thing when I was Nightmare Whisper. I took everypony's pain and sadness, and I felt all of it. I thought I just couldn't let the world be cruel anymore, so I'd make it kind. I turned everypony into foals to try and help them...

...I realize now that that was a horrible thing to do, and the world needs cruelty to happen. I messed up big time, and I regret it... If you lose control and something bad happens to me, then that's my punishment for what I did.

[discolight]

...

Fluttershy... nopony did anything wrong at least not in my universe and even if you did, I wouldn't wish anything ill upon you...

... This pain I'm feeling, I'm still fighting it, even right now. The moment I give up, he wins...I can't let that happen...I can't.

[Fluttershy gently hugs Twilight. Weird... it sort of feels like TWO pairs of hooves hugging.]

We'll fight alongside with you. We're friends, and I wouldn't want it any other way. Neither would I.

[discolight]

[A smile graces Discolight's face.]

Same here...no matter what.

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy continues the hug for a while longer before breaking off. ...Then after a few seconds, she awkwardly shuffles her hoof.]

So... um... are you doing anything later?
