I like it, that said I really hope this doesn't become a trend, it's hard enough getting Celestia art that doesn't involve her being a troll or with a raep face and whitewashing another villain and making her the bad guy isn't gonna help things |

Hey, normal people do not become monsters who get off on making people suffer because they got rejected by a girl.
Bets are she rejected him because he was already a jerk who toyed with others, and expected her to be so flattered by his attentions that she would fall in love with him immediately. |

If anyone had bothered to read the artist note (or the comic itself) then they'd know he didn't become a monster because he got rejected. It was just the straw that broke the camels back after a lifetime of similar rejection. |

Everypony viewing this: be aware that this is told from Discord's perspective. Therefore, by the very nature of memories it will be biased and emphasis will be placed on certain details, so don't take things at face value. Also take note of the shift in drawing styles; Celestia is at first soft, indistinct and very angelic, then hard and bold and cruel, while Discord is smooth and small. Crappy Unicorn is far too good of a drawer for these to be coincidences, this used to indicate how Discord denies any responsibility for his actions and places the blame solely on Celestia.
Context is always important. |

My God... The history of my life before this show!
That girl that crushed my heart make me hate anything, I became a monster just like Discord but after the bronification I forgive her (I call her) and my life just get better. The feeling of being rejected by that person that you look as a goddess can make you a monster, a scary and terrible monster. |

| Anonymous #476912 10 months ago |
No one is absolving discord of blame, Draconaes. Only pointing out it takes two to tango. Monsters are rearly born, but are all too often created. That doesn't give them a free pass to do as they please, but it doesn't get everyone else of the hook either. |

As I've posted in another similar story pic, I do not see ANY tragedy in Q... I mean Discord's past. He was likely born all-powerful. He's never been able to feel on our level. He can change form easily enough. If he ever wanted 'companionship' he'd be able to get it. |

@643 This doesn't make Celestia evil and Discord heroic. Discord tells a story and you assume he's telling the truth? If anything this and the sequel pic make Discord even more of a monster. |
| Kein #482581 10 months ago |
What Draconaes said. Discord is a liar, cheater. His whole tactic is to make you believe in his lies and sweet words. You see him as a victim here, but victim is you:

| feather #505568 10 months ago |
Even the other parts he's not exactly in character, (naturally CrappyUnicorn has a MUCH darker interpretation than canonn) but in Part 1 here, the out of character-ness is forgiveable if you read the other parts (which you will :P) as this is an origin story. Additionally, as Discord himself is telling this story, I think you have to take the whole thing as being inherently deceptive.
Over-all I disagree with CrappyUnicorn's characterization; Dischord is a trickster god, not a Dark God of Chaos. He needs subjects to trick, players for his games, and I don't see him doing most of the things in canon we see in this series. ALL THAT BEING SAID the series stands well on it's own, the artwork is amazing, the story well told, and the long format and integration of font into the imagery adds to disconnectedness of the character as an avatar of disharmony. |

This is great. Sympathy for the Devil and whatnot. Discord could have been a nice guy once. Also, Celestia's story could just as easily be a lie; same goes for Twilight, Gummy, Pinkie Pie, Dash, and Granny Smith. But mostly Celestia, in fact it wouldn't surprise me if she was a demon from the plane of fire, and everything the ponies know is a lie. Harmony's Wrath, best story evar. also poor discord, I probably would have done the same thing in his shoes, well that is if Luna turned me down too. |
