Possible Titles: Toby, Frank, and Discord

Premise: MLP: FIM, Paranormal Activity, Donnie Darko. Toby, Frank, and Discord share a few drinks at a bar and discuss their roles.

Personal Comments: So I saw Paranormal Activity 4 the other night with my friend, and I was imagining what might have been going through the Demon's his head as he did these things. I imagined a conversation between him and Discord from MLP and Frank from Donnie Darko. And well, this idea was born.

I've been thinking of a story of Paranormal Activity told from the Demon's perspective. I think that would be interesting. I wonder if any other writers have already done that...

I saw the film about a week ago, so the ideas for this drabble I had aren't as fresh as they were back then. I wanted to write it that night, but my friend really needed to talk to me.

In the tavern, three figures sat alongside each other at a round table... or at first one would think it was two figures, one was invisible, looking as though he took up an empty seat.

"Seriously," Discord grunted. "Can we see your real form? Please?"

"No," Toby answered. "Villain84 himself can't decide how to depict me. Either as a ghostly man with the cloak or the half-man-half-goat demon. Naked white man with empty sockets? Hooded Man? Woman? Man with really long hair?"

"We can see your silhouette in each of the trailers," Frank remarked.

"Fine. I'll just make you the half-goat thing," Discord answered. He snapped his fingers, and Toby appeared in his seat as a satyr with poka-dot horns.

"Really?" Toby muttered, unamused.

"You know me," Discord smirked. "I'm just a fun-loving guy."

"So, what have your evil plans been?" Frank asked. "What have you done to spread chaos?"

"Oh, well you see... there's this family who is in this cult... they're Satanists I guess you could say. The grandmother in the family has some evil plan involving the mother and the first born son. It's hard to explain, and I can't give too much away."

"Why?" Discord asked. "You don't wanna give us any spoilers?"

"No! It's because at this point, I don't even know where the directors are planning to go with this series!" Toby banged his fist on the table. "They're just worried about making money now, not about telling a good story!"

"Well at least they're working on making the movies scarier," Discord said. "I mean I've seen the movie. There were a few scary moments."

"Too many, the fourth one is a laughing stock," Frank spoke up. "Just like many sequels that stretch out the series to try to keep milking it."

"Oh, have a little imagine people, Frank!" Discord whined. "You and everyone else!" He took a sip of his beer.

"So," Frank continued. "You just walk around the house and cause jump scares with the furniture?"

"Pretty much," Toby answered. "It's really fun messing with these people! Their expressions are priceless!"

"Kinda like how I like making Donnie Darko do his horrrible crimes and acts of vandalism to cause chaos in his town!"

"Yeah! Chaos bitches!" Discord exclaimed. "To chaos, boys!" He raised his glass and the three of them did a toast, and did a huge chug.

"I never really understood," Toby asked. "Frank, are you a villain?"

"It's not clear cut," Frank answered. "Some say I'm evil and that I'm trying to mess with Donnie and his town... and that I came through the time-space continuum to Donnie's time just to cause chaos. Others say I'm there to help Donnie, motivate him to save the universe, and tell him how to do so. It's complicated."

"Yeah, your film was really hard to follow," Discord nodded. "I'd say it was a mindfuck!"

"Pretty much," Frank nodded.

"So let me get this straight," Discord turned back to Toby. "Only children can see you?"

"Yep. Pretty much."

"That's like how only Donnie can see me," Frank smirked.

"And how I can appear before anyone I choose in whatever form I choose," Discord laughed.

"We just LOVE messing with people, don't we?" Toby asked, smirking at Discord. Frank just kept silent.

Toby finally finished his glass, and put it down, along with a few dollar bills, and stood up.

"Well, I'm off to go meet up with Slender Man," he said. "Been nice hanging with you guys. Good night."

"See ya," Discord smiled.

"Have a safe ride," Frank waved. Toby left the tavern and walked down the street.

Discord took another sip of his beer as Frank spoke up again.

"I think Villain84 got it into his head that Slender Man may be the demon in PA."

"That would be really messed-up by every meaning if it were true," Discord chuckled.
