01 Butterflies [Visual]

[strengthinkindness]

[Today's scroll is brought to you by a small brown rabbit, who appears very curious as he looks into it.]

Huh...these things are way weirder than the D-Terminals... [The rabbit clears his throat and smiles.] Hey everyone! ...Pony? ...Pony. Right. Hey everypony! My name's Choco. I'm one of Fluttershy's Digimon!

What are you doing?

[The brown rabbit, Choco, glances behind him before scooting over a bit, revealing a green and red dragon giving him a rather exasperated look.]

That's Sprout. She's Fluttershy's other Digimon.

Seriously? Here too?

She's just grumpy that coming to this world apparently changed our forms too. [He turns to her, though still keeps an eye on the scroll.] At least you're a dragon. I don't think I can do much of anything as a rabbit.

[The dragon known as Sprout rolls her eyes, then reaches for him.] All right, that's enough, bunny boy...

But I'm not done....

[There's not much he can do, though, as the bigger dragon picks him up and carries him off. As she does that, Fluttershy herself appears on the scroll. This close up, one can see the dragonfly clip in her mane, and she looks at the scroll with a puzzled expression, as though she's not quite used to using it.]

I-I, um...I'm sorry...about them. Ch-Choco was just...a little excited about following me home...but, um...

I-Is...something going on in Ponyville? Th-There...There seems to be a lot more ponies than usual, and...i-it feels like...

[She hesitates for a moment, not quite sure how to describe it.]

Has...Has something happened lately?

Oh, Discord...!

[Of course he didn't directly answer her question. But seeing a familiar face made her feel a lot better.]

It's so good to see you...!

[Even if this might not be her Discord.]

[visual]

[discorderly]

[Oh. Well.]

You too, Fluttershy. And your little...friends too. [Is this one like Angel? Can he bother it forever?]

[visual]

[strengthinkindness]

[It is not, but Fluttershy is all too happy to introduce them.]

Discord, these are my friends; Choco... [Motions to the rabbit.] And Sprout. [As she indicates the dragon.

Both are giving Discord a very uncertain look right now.]

[discorderly]

Choco and Sprout!

[Discord poofs to Fluttershy's location, leaning over the three with a toothy grin.] They sound like part of a nutritious breakfast!

[strengthinkindness]

[Choco and Sprout both jump at his sudden appearance, but Fluttershy barely bats an eyelash as she looks up at him with a smile.

She actually wants to hug him, but if this wasn't her Discord, then she would have to wait until he said it was okay.]

Hi, Discord...!

[Meanwhile, the two Digimon were looking at him, curious. Choco leans back a little.]

We're...not edible...

[discorderly]

Of course you're edible, dear, you simply must believe in yourselves~

[Not that he's really paying the Digimon a whole lot of attention anymore.]

Hello, Fluttershy.

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiled, and...nope, can't help it, she just has to give him a big hug.

Because same world or not, this was still her friend, Discord.]

[discorderly]

[Well, then.

Discord will hug her back, and for once be quiet.]

[strengthinkindness]

[That just made her much happier, and she can't help nuzzling into him a little before pulling back to look at him.]

I'm so glad you're here...

[discorderly]

I can't say I'm terribly glad you're here, I'm afraid. This is not the best place to be of late.

But I suppose it's good to see you nonetheless...? [How does this work]

[strengthinkindness]

Mm...I have been...hearing some things.

B-But...if there's anything I can do to help...I hope I can...
