These are the words that the alicorn princess had repeatedly told herself, about, what? Fifty times since morning? But that doesn't matter right now, what matters is what will happen in about ten minutes or so
So, funny story really, just the other day, Cadence was enjoying a nice cup of tea, peacefully reading an extremely entertaining piece of literature that her dear sister in law had so adamantly recommended. She was having a ridiculously uneventful day, so excruciatingly normal that something just had to come and ruin it.
This awfully evil thing taking the form of a neatly closed off letter, courtesy of her dear mentor, Celestia herself. Oh golly, I wonder what it could possibly be? Judging by the slightly frantic look of the poor messenger, the contents of the letter are not good, that much she could tell.
Oh how she wished she was wrong.
According to the letter, Celestia had a tiny favor to ask of her adoptive niece
Said favor was to reform and take care of one of the biggest threats equestia has ever seen, the one and only, Discord, lord of chaos, disharmony and anything else out of the ordinary
Did I say tiny favor? I meant big-ass favor
She wasn't exactly excited by the news.
Quite the opposite actually.
Shining armor too. The Stallion was practically livid at the prospect that a villainous fiend would just be strolling down the castle's hallways. The shock and terror they had to endure on their wedding day was more than enough chaos for the rest of their lives.
But, she did accept the burden. She owed Celestia and, by an extend, Twilight and her friends her merry life. This was the least she could do
Well that's an understatement
Her train of though was abruptly stopped by the creaking of the giant, crystal doors of the throne room. Her and the staff's newest "roommate" came forth accompanied by four of her own guards.
Cadence wasn't too worried about the possibility of the creature's trademark maelstrom to flood the room since Celestia made it positively clear that any and all types of Discord's magic were under heavy restriction
But damn, he was intimidating
He was much, MUCH taller than her and his blood-red eyes pierced her very soul. His gaze was fixated at her form in an almost annoyed fashion.
He clearly wasn't happy about this
'Me too bud'
She, like every living thing inhabiting Equestria, had read stories and descriptions about the infamous draconequus. Paragraphs describing the anomaly's face as hysterical, maniacal, insane even. His exaggerated movements accompanied by his crazy fits of laughter really did paint the image of a monstrous tyrant
Something that he didn't look like at the moment
The princess could feel the sheer emotions of anger and humiliation emitting from the male in front of her, barely hidden beneath an angry scowl that currently resided in his facial features
Seems like someone doesn't take being a sore loser well
The spare set of clothing he wore pathetically hang around his tall frame. Why, he almost looked like a janitor displeased with his payment
'Come on Candy, this is a very inappropriate time to snort'
Finding the courage to finally move, she hesitantly took a small step towards the 9 ft giant and presented her open hand forward in what she hoped was a friendly gesture, hoping for a handshake.
'… and finish it off with a welcoming smile! Or at least something akin to a smile…"
"Greeting! My name is princess Mi Amore Cadenza, or Cadence for short. I will be your…" shoot, what is she supposed to call herself? Guardian? Keeper?
"… Caretaker" the draconequus gruffly spat the word in such a manner that she almost felt filthy
"Yes something like that.." oh joy, oh dear Celestia " We'll be… together? Yes, together for quite sometime. Em… make yourself comfortable and I… I will show you your room in bit. Is that ok with you?"
Discord didn't answer, looking completely apathetic, maybe even a bit offended. By what she doesn't know. Maybe she said something bad?
Oh boy, we are gonna be here for a looooonnngg time

Aaannddd CUT
Surprise, surpise! I am getting my shit together (somewhat) and I am actually gonna develop a frickin STORY out of my 3 clusterfuck nextgens
Why this one? Idk I just felt like it, lol fuck you (but actually don't)
Background found from google but if someone has uploaded here pls tell me
So, you may be wondering why dissy is so salty and cold here instead of being his piss boi self. It's because he doesn't have any magic at the moment so he can't really fuck around like canon when flutters reformed him.
Cuz you know, letting an all powerful beast of chaos run rampant, completely unrestrained is really fucking dumb
So yeah, he knows he can't really escape or cause mindless mischief so he instead acts like an angsty teenager
Also, Candace poor baby is unsure what the hell to do
Also I've switche to an [anthro style as I mentioned and I'd like to know what you think]
