Discord jumped at a loud knocking on the door, but he got up and walked towards the front door, careful not to bump over any of Pinkie’s stuff. Making it to the foot of the stairs, he’d just been beaten to the door by Pinkie, a laugh escaping his lips as she flashed him a wink over her shoulder playfully.

Pinkie yanked open the door and let out a happy noise, hugging the mare on the other side. “Rainbow! You’re early. Chase is still packing up his stuff.” The pink mare exclaimed, opening the door wide to let her ex-wife in.

Rainbow grinned and stepped inside, only to come face to face with a certain draconequus. “D-Discord!? Why are you here?” She asked, surprised to see the reformed villain. Discord winced, but offered a smile.

“He lives here now.” Pinkie said, calling up the stairs for her son. “He’s the one I was telling you about, Rainbow.” She purred, turning back around and trotting over to stand next to Discord.

“Oh! The guy you’re dating. Really now?” Rainbow asked, tilting her head to the side.

Discord cleared his throat slightly, rubbing the back of his neck. “Yeah, I moved in pretty recently. Sorry, I thought you knew, so I’m sorry if this is kinda awkward. It’s not like I wanna encroach on you twos’ family life and what not.” He said awkwardly as Rainbow narrowed her eyes.

“Nonsense!” Rainbow exclaimed, laughing. “Nothing awkward about it! Pinkie and I divorced on good terms, we’d simply grown apart due to our jobs. I’m happy she’s found someone she loves! It’d suck if I was the only one, no?” Punching the hybrid’s shoulder playfully, Rainbow shook her head, though her excitement died down after a second. “… How’s Chase handling it?” She asked, directing the question to Pinkie.

“Not.. well. He thinks I’m with Discord because I hate you now. Him and I have been arguing, and he’s sworn to hate Discord for as long as we’re together.” Pinkie murmured, dropping her head slightly. “I don’t like fighting with him, but he’s entitled to his opinion. I can only hope he’ll get used to it after time, even if he doesn’t full accept Discord and my relationship.”

“It’ll be okay, Pinkie.”
