Comic: Friendship is Science

Source
More DEEP Discord Stuff, because DEEP is COMPELLING. 

Friendship is Science does make a good point.. Ponies tend to be completely oblivious to the pain of others sometimes.

That second one is hilarious.

James Corck said...

My reply to Number 1: I hope this happens. I want to see Twilight crawling on the floor and suffering like a b*tch.

Number 2: That seems like a legit scientific conclusion. I buy it.

dwarfyz said...

I am supposed to be sad at the first comic? If so, well i didn't cry. I did however laugh at the second one.

Laurence Brown said...

I was going to say 'Yay!' for the pair of excellent comics, but I fear that it might be taken the wrong way...

Um, huzzah? Yippee?

Jelfes said...

Nope, I thought wrong, just a comic about Twilight being alone... *sniff sniff* WHY?! But, yeah, that first comic was good and the second one is pretty accurate, based on those examples. CMC: YAY(what they're thinking) Hahaha, this pony has no idea how much we're about to f*** up her s***!

Celestia said...

First comic made me sad, second is typical Twilight thinking too hard into things.

Octavia said...

Dang. That Discord comic. Pretty deep stuff there. I quite like how they portrayed it though. The stripping of their innocence in place for more "real world" thought patterns.

Second comic was kinda funny. But yes, Spike. She for realz.

BizzareAD said...

Wow, number 1 is extremely well done! Also, number 2 was absolutely hilarious and totally true.

Ivan2294 said...

People are going to turn Discord into a very deep and tragic story aren't they.

Also, still waiting on that fanfic based off the comic that shows discord as turning evil because he fell in love with celestia but celestia rejected him.

terrycloth said...

Kindness can sooth an aching heart...

...but maybe they deserve to suffer.

The second one is funny. n.n Especially Twilight projecting her own Yay-rationale onto the others.

WavemasterRyx said...

The first picture is a minor masterpiece... of despair.

The second one... makes a disturbing amount of sense. Yay!

Spazturtle said...

1: Nooooooo, I don't want Twilight to feel like me.

Tosxychor said...

@Jelfes
LOL, how involuntary fitting, a yay for Discord stuff.

commanche105996 said...

That first comic is pretty deep shit.

Jelfes said...

@Tosxychor Hah! I didn't even catch that... that means you all better prepare for misery, it's headed straight for you.

Kelleth said...

The first is a bid sad. But the second made me lol Yay is the BURN! of the ponyverse xD

Tyranoman said...

I actually openly applauded that first one. It captured the essence of Discord, if you dont mind me being cliche.
At #2 yep its true, Ponies are trolls.

youtube|UsurperKingZant said...

From now on, I'm going to yay when I troll

Kd7sov said...

And that, the first one, is exactly why (or part of why) Twilight is the only one who remains saturated.

Other parts may include the desire for a helpless witness, the fact that Magic can't be found/taken until all the others are, and the fact that Twilight is the most mane character.

John said...

Mother of god, that first comic is creepy. But very deep. I want Discord to say that exact line to Twilight in part 2 (unlikely, I know, but it's totally what he's going for at the moment...)

KShrike said...

The first one is very dark. It is interesting how dark you can interpret the first episode of this "little girl's show".

P. Pony Ponyson said...

"Cruelity"? "Loyality"?
...

Ford said...

I was thinking...is it my imagination, or do four of Twilight's friends still show some degree of loyalty to her, in spite of being turned? IIRC, their reactions appear to suggest that they still consider Discord to be an enemy.

Madfish said...

I doesn't matter how we're separated or what divides us. My friends are in my heart.

Wierdplatformer said...

The first one is a pretty deep comic. The second one is even deeper. :P

Atiarotias said...

hmm, they do seem to do the yey a lot don't they...

ToonNinja said...

Funny, "yay" seems to have a whole different meaning in Equestria...

D. Shadows said...

1.

Even if the truth is harsh, sometimes it must be heard. Lies do nothing but build up until the one telling them can't even remember who they are.

Generosity is its own reward, what comes around goes around. In the end greed amounts to nothing gained, leaving your memories a hollow husk.

Being laughed at hurts, but everybody has to play the fool sometimes. So when those that laughed at you are the fools, it is better not to become them and stay silent.

Kindness may only get you so far, but cruelty gets you nowhere. How does hurting everything do nothing more than further you to your own end? Cruelty only begets more and is too easy an act for anything to perform. In comparison it takes someone stronger to show kindness, especially so with those who have power and have yet to fall to its corruption.

Loyalty is guided by its heart. While the heart may be led astray, it's always trying to be in the right place. Duties do not tell you how to feel and it's a bad idea to be blindly loyal to a cause without knowledge of said cause. Fame is fleeting, use it to better the world instead of yourself.

Real friendship is hard to obtain, if you have friends hold them tight because they can scatter to the winds at a moments notice.

Friends can hurt each other, help each other and love each other. But most of all true friends don't let their friendship or the magic involved to simply die off.



2. I must be getting a lot of "yay" then. I'm pretty miserable when I'm not bored of insanity or misery.

Nals said...

The first one, im feeling alot like twilight this week...

Timber said...

I commented before reading the comics. I do that alot.

Ok the first one made me hate Discord on a whole new level. Its Trollestia tier now. We need Luna to come kick his scaley ass.

The second one, friggin LOL! It is too true.

Josh Spicer said...

The second is oddly true.

As for the first one...I could honestly see this happening in the second episode. Twilight's all alone, but since she has experience in being all alone, she won't be any different.

RobertAQD said...

In the second episode, we find a simple Little Pony Stare will strip the uncaring from his being. Then, he's all sweetness and understanding from now on?

jodyjm13 said...

@RobertAQD
I believe you're thinking of the '80s MLP series, there.

The first comic is extremely well done, and chilling because so many people act as if they believe that way.

The second comic is amusing. Yay!

Jeff said...

Number 1: Epicfeeltime.jpg
Number 2: LOL

HMorris73 said...

@Ford
This is true, though it can't last long if they stay as they are. I love the kind of wary "What's your game Discord?" look Fluttershy shoots him when she gets her wings back at the end.

Azal said...

I actually find it interesting... it seemed to me that Rainbow Dash didn't so much get stripped of Loyalty, but had it misguided and replaced, which I can see in the sense of duty. She didn't seem to react "I'll be a hero" for Cloudsdale, she seemed genuinely scared of what was going to happen to it if she wasn't there. Where the others he... opposed them, what he did to Rainbow Dash was more malicious, he used her own element to fail it.

Magdalene said...

Ha ha, that second one was pretty funny. Twilight notices all the awkward.

RommyWolf said...

The first one pretty much sums up Discord's little game very well. Since the key to the Elements of Harmony is the Magic of Friendship, then the best way to take that out is to break up the friendship.

Twilight's Element isn't Magic. It's the Friendship she developped with the other Mane Five. Break up that Friendship and her Element is gone. ...Which is why I think she, of all the ponies, will be the one who DOESN'T break, the one who doesn't allow herself to be "corrupted" by his powers.

Because her faith in her friends is just too strong.

Hydra in a Top Hat said...

First one pretty much sums up why I think most of us adore Discord as a villain. Exceptionally well done.

Applejack85 said...

First comic i agree was really well done, fits perfectly.

Second one is just LOL too funny and too true.

Rohit Eligeti said...

But Twilight is on to MAGIC!
Seriously there should be another pony who's interest is SCIENCE! then we'll see the two fight for it! LOLOLOLOL

HMorris73 said...

@Rohit Eligeti
In Equestria magic is a science.
