Homeless. Poor little guy.

[princeofchaos]

Is this really a good idea? I mean, what if there are no games for OCs of my... nature? And why'd you have to give me this journal name? I was hoping to keep my dad's identity a secret for half a second, even if it's kind of obvious... maybe Aunt Twilight could've taught me some kind of illusion spell, but if I see her here she won't know me, so now what am I supposed to do?

I appreciate giving me more backbone than when you had me at LJ, but were the horns really necessary? I just want to look like anypony else. I don't want to look more like my father.

On a scale from 1 to 10, how angry would you be if I tried to ride you?

[princeofchaos]

Depends on if you asked and if you yanked on my hair or not.

[surgicalprodigy]

Well, can I? I promise I won't yank on your hair!

[princeofchaos]

We can try. I've never given anyone a ride before, though... I'm not sure if I'll be able to go very fast or very far with you. I'm sorry. My Aunt Rainbow would be a better pony to ask for that kinda thing...

im sorry alan is stupid as hell

[surgicalprodigy]

[SCORE! Alan literally makes a dive for the pony and tries to sit on his back, all the while screaming:]

TONIGHT, MY POWERFUL WINGED STEED, WE PILLAGE IN THE NAME OF LOVE!

I'm laughing so much right now.

[princeofchaos]

...what does pillage mean? [He's just confused more than anything.] I'm not going to do anything mean! Everypony hates me already without that!

i aim to please

[surgicalprodigy]

Uh..sorry, I've always wanted to ride a horse and thought that was a pretty epic thing to say on one.

Pillaging is like looting, but really, I was just trying to be in the moment. No pillaging.

[This is pretty cool, he's sitting on a winged pony!]

[cruel_kindness]

What the buck, just how much will Old Man spawn?

...Does this mean you're my bucking brother?

[princeofchaos]

Um... [He starts to say Fluttershy, but looks at the cutie mark and off colors and pauses.] I think so, yeah. Um. Hi.

[cruel_kindness]

[This pony's colors are dull and not very vibrant, Her eyes are dragon-like, she has scars all over her body, and her cutie mark isn't three butterflies. It's two hooves, as if one is helping another off the ground.

Fluttercruel sizes this chaos-spawn up.]

...Well, you certainly look like him. But it's a good thing you're way more useful than a backscratcher. You can call me Cruelly.

[She extends a hoof to shake.]

[princeofchaos]

I'm Iris. Nice to meet you, sis. [He shakes her hoof, thinking but very definitely not saying how weird this was. Another thought occurred to him, which he did voice:] So are you my older sister or my little sister, then?

[cruel_kindness]

Were you born before or after Old Man was Harmony'd to stone by 'Shy and the others?

[princeofchaos]

Before. What about you, Cruelly?

[magicalrealist]

(There are so many things wrong with this and Twilight could list them all with ease. She was honestly expecting Shining to make her an aunt; not Princess Celestia. That's just...

...well at least he seems nice enough. And if an alternate version of herself could care for him, then maybe she can, too.)

...if it's any consolation, there are games that accept canon original characters.

[princeofchaos]

There are?

...I guess it makes sense you'd know. Even if you're not the Twilight from my world, you're still Twilight. You know everything. [He smiles at her. Twilight will know what to do, because she's Twilight. She's his mom's best student.] How've you been?

[magicalrealist]

Well I wouldn't say everything...but yes, there are games out there you could apply to without any trouble.

(Modesty is probably something shared with every Twilight out there. This one is no exception.)

I'm doing alright. The game I'm in is coming to a close and my mun has plans of transferring me afterwards. How about you?

[princeofchaos]

That's great. My mun wants to play me more. She's been on a pony kick lately, which has been great for cheering her up.

[Oh, Twilight. Never change. <3] I'm sorry your game is ending. It must be hard to leave all your friends there... but a least your mun has a plan for after that. That's good, right?

I'm fine. Everypony's been nice to me here so far. I... I am scared, though, of seeing my dad here... [He shudders.] Has he been around lately?

[magicalrealist]

Muns seem to gravitate towards ponies when they need to cheer up. It's completely natural.

Mhm. It'll be hard to say good-bye to everyone, but friends will always be connected, no matter what may stand in the way. (Yes, avoid traumatizing him by not talking about the specifics of Mayfield, good. Bonus points for ending it on a high note.)

Discord? Not too recently; I can't guarantee you won't run into him, but he's not too common of an occurrence.

[princeofchaos]

Another muse in my mun's head said friendship is so powerful friends will reincarnate after they die and find each other. You know magic, so - is it true? [He trusts her opinion completely, and perks up at Discord not being here at the moment.]

That's great. I mean, I know, that's an awful thing to say about my father, but... he's just... well, you know him. And I'm not like him, but when he's around it gets so hard to get anypony to see me as anything but another Discord waiting to happen...

[bestofthebest]

(...Yeah, give Rainbow a moment since she has to clear her head. She might figure it out sooner or later.)

Seriously? Be proud of who you are! It shouldn't matter if you're a Pegasus, a Unicorn or an Earth pony. Hearth's Warming Eve is coming up in a few weeks from now.

[princeofchaos]

But I don't like who I am. My magic misfires a lot, I still don't have a cutie mark and... well... just look at the horns. I'm creepy. Everypony at school used to tell me so.

[bestofthebest]

(Waaaait a second, he does look familiar. Discord's son? Ahh, he's not acting like him so no harm done!)

Those ponies just didn't try to understand you! What pony would you wanna look like? Since you don't have your cutie mark...go out and do whatever you can think of to earn it - like racing around on a scooter, or bowling and trying to get 3 strikes in a row!

(Rainbow could suggest a talent he has that comes naturally to him...)

[princeofchaos]

I've tried a lot of things, but... I just can't seem to find my special talent. I'm beginning to think maybe I don't have one. Maybe the other ponies were right, and I am a loser. One of them said I shouldn't even exist...

But as for what pony I'd wanna look like, that's easy - I want to look like my Mom. She's the best pony in the world. [He is such a momma's boy.] She's strong and knows everything about magic and everypony likes her.

[bestofthebest]

(Rainbow's staring you down, a determined look in her face.)

...That's ridiculous! Everypony deserves to exist, and you do have a talent! You just gotta keep trying every day until you find it. I know a few squirts like you who don't have their Cutie marks either, and they don't give up; they keep trying everyday to find their special talent. (She's talking about the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo.)

Your Mom? I guess that'd be okay; some colts do take on their parents features, and looking like her isn't bad at all. Do I know her?

[princeofchaos]

But... well, you've probably guessed who my dad is, so... what if half-ponies aren't really supposed to exist? What if the reason I don't have a cutie mark is because I'm just wrong? Maybe that's why I'm bad at magic - I'm not supposed to be here at all.

...um, well, you know her, but I don't want to freak you out. In your universe my parents never had me, so it might be weird for you.
