Well there's only so much you can do to keep yourself entertained for 1000 years. I do think that training Twilight is probably the most fun she's had in years.

Thread Hop

...

Again.

Whats up all?

Yeah, I wonder if Discord was serious when he said that the mane cast were the most fun he'd had in eons?

I wonder if the chaos ever gets boring for him

All of this discussion reminded me why I loved "Sunny Skies All Day Long" so much. It's basically Celestia understanding that even Twi and her friends fear her because she's the Princess, and decide to disguise herself to visit Ponyville to know them better.

Since he spend 1000years in stone, it's probably true. And since Chaos is, well, chaos, I don't think it's even possible to get used to it, because it's supposedly random.

We've discussed this before, but a Celestia incognito episode really needs to happen at some point. I'm torn as to whether her disguise should be effective or not.

The fanfic I told about went with "Not quite enough". It fooled everypony (except Pinkie Pie...) but after a while Twi managed to figure this out. They still had fun together.

And I think her disguise should be at least good enough to fool most ponies. (Everypony except maybe Mane 6)

I like this idea I had of her willingly inflicting amnesia upon herself so that Twilight could see the real her, and so that she could relax for once (since I reckon she's ALWAYS thinking)

Yes, her going incognito would be hilarious.

GAH!!!!!!!

I just like the idea that everypony can see through the disguise instantly, and Twilight is running around preventing them from calling her out on it.

We haven't really seen Princess C interact with anyone besides Twilight and a little bit with Fluttershy have we?

I think if she disugsed herself as a normal pony we should see how she interacts with the other Mane Six primarly.

@ L mage we are just discussing Celestia's sanity.

Or lack there of? :D

I'm mostly kiding

How about a paper thin disguise that only fools Twilight? None of her friends will tell her because they are worried that she'll freak out again.

Yeah, she's not really a princess.

Got hit by...something, and now occupies the castle by herself. Her subjects are hallucinations.

Yes, I'm kidding. Christ, guys...

Evening, folks.

Good evening sir.

Good evening

What would be a good name for a pony Fantasy Counterpart Culture of the Abbasid Caliphate?

Stalabia?

Also, how would a in disguies Celestia interact with the Mane Six? The question interests me greatly.

Doesn't really fit, but... Taj Marehal ?

She arrives in town, Pinkie throw a party for the new pony, she meets everypony. After that... I guess she would be a bit scred to go to Twilight, just in case she could blew her cover.

I'd named a country that began as a fantasy counterpart culture to Arabia and Babylon El'Bia. It's not a pun, but still.

I think it would actually be possible for Discord to get bored of chaos, simply because most ponies would be predictable. The fun of something like that is watching reactions, and after a while all the ponies reactions would boil down to "Oh no!" or "What the hell?". Having somepony fight back was probably so surprising it became hilarious for him.

I wonder if, back when he was in charge, he ever just up and decided to be nice for a generation or two, just to switch things up. Or if maybe the whole torture thing was the result of him getting bored, and Celestia just came in at a bad time.

This is horrifying and adorable

Oh now I get it.

Balance it or she dies.

...huh.

Or maybe Equestria would become something akin to My Little Balesraphs?

Wut how.

Heres a question: There are Six Elements of Harmony right? And their are two pony sisters. Now it's clear that Celestia wielded all six to banish Luna, but before that if it took both of them to imprision Discord then that means they both must have been attuned to three Elements a peice.

Who represented what?
