Note: Hasbro's My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was created by Lauren Faust.
Twilight Sparkle was having a meeting with Starlight Glimmer in her library. Twilight said, "I wanna hear all about the stuff that you've learned this week."
Starlight nervously replied, "Um, okay." Twilight was Starlight's mentor and she had been teaching Starlight all about friendship and magic. The problem was that Starlight often zoned out during Twilight's lessons. Starlight said, "I learned how to count to a thousand."
Twilight sighed and said, "That wasn't one of my lessons. Haven't you learned anything from the past few weeks of lessons that I've given you?"
Starlight replied, "Sorry Twilight. You're a good teacher, but I don't like listening to you."
Twilight sarcastically said, "Thanks a lot."
Discord popped into the library and said, "Good evening ladies."
Twilight replied, "You're not supposed to be here during lesson time. I'm trying to teach Starlight Glimmer a lot of important things that will make a big impact on her future."
Discord yawned and said, "You're a good friend, but I don't like listening to you." Starlight and Discord high fived.
Twilight sarcastically replied, "I'm glad that you two can bond over how boring I am."
Discord patted Twilight on the back and said, "We're lucky to have a friend as boring as you."
Twilight angrily asked, "What do you want?"
Discord tried to make himself look sympathetic by saying, "I have a friendship that could use some assistance."
Twilight replied, "I don't have time for that."
Starlight said, "Actually, seeing you help Discord deal with his friendship problem could help me learn more about friendship."
Twilight asked, "What's going on?"
Discord said, "I'm deeply concerned about Fluttershy."
Fluttershy was one of Twilight's closest friends so she looked nervous while asking, "What's going on with her?"
Discord talked in a whiny voice while saying, "She's been spending all her time with Tree Hugger."
Twilight replied, "That's nothing to be concerned about. Why do you care about who Fluttershy hangs out with?"
Discord answered, "Fluttershy's my favorite pony and I don't want to end by being forgotten by her."
Starlight asked, "What's the big deal about Fluttershy having other friends? She already had five best friends before meeting you."
Discord replied, "I used to be the most exciting thing in her life. However, she's been obsessing over Tree Hugger recently. She even blabbers on about Tree Hugger when spending time with me."
Twilight responded, "This isn't a real problem so get let go of your ego and let Fluttershy and Tree Hugger be happy."
Discord said, "I have a very personal for my actions."
Twilight asked, "What's your reason?"
Discord whispered, "I have a crush on Fluttershy."
Twilight screamed, "You have a crush on Fluttershy?!"
Starlight said, "That's quite shocking."
Discord covered up Twilight's mouth and said, "You suck at keeping secrets."
Twilight replied, "You need to tell Fluttershy how I feel."
Discord asked, "Why?"
Twilight answered, "She won't know your true feelings if you don't express yourself."
Discord sounded nervous while saying, "But what if I admit my feelings and she rejects me?"
Twilight shrugged her shoulders and answered, "I guess that she would admire you expressing your true feelings."
Discord stuck his tongue out and said, "That would make me seem like a dork. I need you to help me."
Twilight looked exhausted while asking, "What do you want me to do?"
Discord answered, "Tell Fluttershy about how charming I am. Make her get a crush on me."
Twilight sighed and said, "I'll talk to her about it once, but you need to grow up."
Discord smiled while saying, "I've been an immature fool for centuries and I plan on staying one." He left the castle.
Twilight faced Starlight and asked, "Did you learn anything from that?"
Starlight answered, "I sure didn't."
A few hours later Twilight and Fluttershy met up at Sugarcube Corner. Twilight asked, "Have you been having a good week?"
Fluttershy smiled and said, "I've been having a lot of fun with Tree Hugger. We've met so many different kinds of animals and we stopped Filthy Rich from replacing an animal shelter with a spa."
Twilight asked, "Have you missed Discord?"
Discord hadn't been on Fluttershy's mind, because she had been thinking about Tree Hugger and pets for the past few weeks. She said, "I saw Discord earlier this week. We had a pretty good time."
Twilight asked, "What did you talk?"
Fluttershy looked a little guilty while saying, "I don't remember that many details."
Twilight asked, "How could you forget about a meeting with Discord? He's so chaotic and bothersome, but he's also very charming and unique. Every visit with Discord is a unforgettable treat."
Fluttershy jokingly asked, "Are you getting a crush on Discord?"
Twilight looked ticked off while saying, "I'd rather drink a dozen expired milkshakes than date him."
Mr. Cake walked by and said, "I drank a dozen expired milkshakes a long time ago. It made me pass out several times."
Fluttershy said, "I'm sorry Twilight. That was a dumb thing for me to say, but I've never heard you talk about Discord so fondly before."
Twilight said, "You're the one who should be thinking about having a crush on Discord."
Fluttershy asked, "What do you mean?"
Twilight answered, "You two have such a close bond. You helped him stop being a villain and you two have tea parties all the time."
Fluttershy replied, "I like Discord a lot when it comes to friendship, but I wouldn't date him. His rough sense of humor and bad treatment towards animals makes him too unappealing to be someone I'd date."
Twilight responded, "Good answer, but I'm afraid that Discord's going to be disappointed."
The next day Twilight was trying to get Starlight to pay attention to her classwork. Twilight asked, "Did you learn anything?"
Starlight said, "Um, I learned that classwork is the most boring type of magic." Twilight frowned at Starlight.
Discord popped into the library again and said, "Good afternoon ladies."
Twilight was worried about how to explain that Fluttershy doesn't have a crush on him without hurting his feelings. Twilight faced Starlight and asked, "Wanna take a break while I took to Discord?"
Starlight smiled and said, "Sure." She ran out of the room.
Discord asked, "Did you find out if Fluttershy has a crush on me?"
Twilight gently answered, "I'm afraid to report that Fluttershy thinks that you're a really good friend, but she doesn't want to date you."
Discord looked heartbroken and said, "Thank you for finding out how she feels."
Twilight replied, "I'm really sorry about this."
Discord angrily said, "It was your fault."
Twilight asked, "What?"
Discord answered, "Fluttershy might of gotten a crush on me if you had made me sound better."
Twilight replied, "I told Fluttershy that you were charming and unique. I also said that every visit with you is a treat that I won't forget."
Discord was impressed by what Twilight said about him. He asked, "Do you really think that I'm charming and unique?"
Twilight said, "You're more unique than charming. In fact, you're charming in a unique way."
Discord asked, "Is every visit with me a unforgettable experience?"
Twilight answered, "Your visits are often bothersome, weird, and silly, but I hardly ever forget about them."
Discord lightly smiled and said, "Thank you Twilight."
Twilight replied, "You're welcome." Discord left.
Starlight and Spike walked in. Spike asked, "What's going on?"
Twilight explained to Spike about Discord and Fluttershy. She said, "Discord might be in a bad mood for a while."
Spike asked, "Is there any way to cheer him up?"
Twilight answered, "Discord should ask out a different pony."
Spike asked, "Who would want to date somebody as ugly as him?"
Twilight frowned at Spike and said, "That's a terrible thing to say. Discord's not a super model, but he's charismatic in his own way. I'm sure there's a lot of ponies that think he's handsome."
Starlight whispered to Spike, "Sounds like Twilight's got a crush."
Spike whispered, "Really?"
Starlight whispered, "Twilight acts like Discord annoys her, but she's been talking about how appealing he is all day. I would of gotten bored if you hadn't got me those invisible headphones."
Spike whispered, "That's what friends are for."
Fifty minutes later Twilight went to Rarity's boutique. Rarity said, "Greetings Twilight. What's going on?"
Twilight asked, "Do you know a lot of ponies?"
Rarity proudly answered, "Of course I do. I'm one of the most popular ponies in Equestria."
Twilight asked, "Do you know anybody that would go on a blind date with Discord? He has a crush on Fluttershy, but she doesn't have a crush on him."
Rarity replied, "It could be hard to find somebody. Discord's one of the least stylish things that I've ever seen."
Twilight responded, "But he has a unique type of charm. He's very entertaining."
Rarity said, "It sounds like a challenge to find somebody who would want to date him."
Twilight replied, "But he's one of the most intriguing and special characters in all of Equstria."
Rarity asked, "May I say a theory that involves you?"
Twilight raised her eyebrows and answered, "I guess."
Rarity said, "I think that you have a crush on Discord."
Twilight stubbornly responded, "I wouldn't do that. Dating him would be repulsive."
Rarity smiled and asked, "Then how come you've been complimenting him as if he were the most eloquent creature that you've ever seen?"
Twilight answered, "I just feel bad about him."
Rarity replied, "Yeah right."
Meanwhile, Discord popped up at Twilight's castle. Starlight walked up to Discord and noticed that he had a bouquet of flowers. She asked, "What's going on?"
Discord said, "I need your opinion on something."
Starlight asked, "What's going on?"
Discord sweated nervously while asking, "Would it be weird if I asked Twilight out? Her kind words about me made me realize how thankful I am for all the times that she supported me."
Starlight replied, "That sounds super weird, but weirdness and badness can be separate things at times. It's clear that she likes you."
A few minutes later Twilight went back to the kingdom. She walked around the hallway and saw that Discord was there. She asked, "What's going on?"
Discord gave Twilight the bouquet of flowers and answered, "I realized that Fluttershy isn't the one that I truly like. I have a crush on you."
Twilight raised her eyebrows and said, "This is super surprising. I don't think that this is possible."
Discord replied, "You've supported me more than anybody else ever has. You've always solved my friendship problems and you tolerate all of my antics."
Twilight said, "I'm flattered, but I'm not sure if I feel the same way."
Discord smiled and replied, "Yeah right. Didn't you call me the most charming and unique creature ever?"
Twilight blushed and said, "I'm not sure."
Discord replied, "I used to think that you couldn't stand me. You would growl when I blabbered on about Fluttershy."
Twilight sighed and said, "I guess I was just jealous."
Discord replied, "You instantly forgave me after I betrayed you and your friends so I could team up with Tirek."
Twilight replied, "I was ticked off at you for being such an untrustworthy scoundrel and I was made at myself for still caring about you."
Discord had a polite looking smile on his face while saying, "I'm never going to betray you and your friends again. I still plan on bringing chaos to Equestria, but I plan on doing it with innocent pranks and cheap jokes. I want to become a nicer creature and I would love your help."
Twilight replied, "I'll help you. I can give teach you about friendship after I finish teaching Starlight about it." She looked at the bouquet of flowers and said, "These are lovely."
Discord replied, "You deserve them, because you have a lovely heart."
Twilight blushed and said, "Thank you Discord."
Discord asked, "Wanna go out for a cup of tea tomorrow?"
Twilight smiled and said, "Sure."
Discord replied, "I better go home." Twilight kissed him on the cheek. He said, "Thank you Twilight. You're even sweeter than Fluttershy." He smiled at her and left.
Starlight walked up to Twilight and saw that she was blushing. Starlight asked, "Are you going to go on a date with him?"
Twilight answered, "I don't want to share those personal details with you."
Starlight asked, "Did you two kiss?"
Twilight blushed and said, "Please don't ask me any questions about Discord." She went into her room.
Twilight felt she was crazy for agreeing to date Discord. She was the most organized pony in the world and Discord was the master of chaos. She smiled, because she realized that she gave him the good advice that he needed and he gave her the goofy chaos that she needed. She felt happy to finally discover the magic of romance.
