#2 That image...of 'sexy-time' Pinkie Pie, forever burned in my brain. Oh gawd the burning. And yet, the two of them really would make an interesting couple.
#1 : Funny, simple, short and awesome. Not much more to say.
#2. Now... here's where it starts. Did NOT see that coming at all. Pinkie's angry face in the first panel is quite scary. And everything that follows. Well, there's a 'Cupcakes' reference, shipping, and everything else you'd expect... yeah, that about sums it up...
Ugh, weird comic is weird. So, did Discord fall in love with Pinkimena, or Pinkie Pie? Or both?
In the most ironic outcome little Distort Sphere grows up to become the savior of Equestria after rising up and slaying his parents, ushering in a millennium of peace and harmony by becoming it's beloved prince and benevolent ruler.
I like the second one. I'm honestly surprised that I haven't seen a full on discord / pinkie shipfic, considering how much potential is there. And this is coming from someone who's not even normally a fan of shipfics.
Or heck, even just one where Pinkie becomes some sort of Discord cultist. Maybe he's sending her dreams or visions or something and trying to get her to free him. I mean let's face it, Pinkie WANTED everything to stay random and chaotic. That was her groove. GAH I wish I had time to write it!
First comic is funny. Whenever I'm watching ponies, whether it be Season 1 or 2, it's always LIKE A BAWS.
The second comic is certainly interesting. Of course it turned to shipping. Seems like you can't get Discord and Pinkie in the same room together without it suddenly turning to shipping. Or worse. As panel 19 is suggesting. lol I also love Discord's face in panel 10 and his, uhhh... outfit and pose in panel 22. :P And awww, Distort Sphere is cute.
Saw #2 a few days ago, one of my yet-to-be brony friends said I was going to hate her when she showed me it (She knows I'm pretty much a die-hard PinkieDash fan). I can't say I like the shipping of Pinkie and Discord very much..... Celestia and Discord make more semse, honestly.
Lovely artwork, at least.
#1: Spike, Spike, Spike..... We all do that every Saturday.
That's simultaneously the best and worst thing I've ever read, especially since Discord went the Loony Toons route and acted as doctor for his son's birth.
Personally I don't innately dislike the idea of characters whom I essentially view as human in mind being cast in situations like that. Don't see why parody and non-canon derivative works should be rejected solely for acknowledging parts of the human experience in a playful manner. Especially since people don't seem to have a problem with grimdark bringing in far, far worse things.
Discord commits genocide against the alicorns in one comic? Totally fine, no one's going to comment on how that goes against the spirit of the show. Pinkie shows some non-explicit flank for the sake of furthering the joke? Controversy!
@Kujiiro Your comment made me lol as much as the comic itself. I sincerely think 'embraced the end of reality and made babies with it' must now enter the formal lexicon of the modern age.
I've totally done that lol. My friends are like what are you doing Saturday morning? And I'm like dude I got to work in the morning man, I may be free around noon.
#1. That's what we all thought when someone announced plans to us on Saturday morning, right?
#2. "lolwut"
But I was confused, why did he say the cupcakes tasted like failed pony? Then I wondered where the rest of the mane 6 went in the last panels. Then I realized the grim reality of the joke. "Ohhhhhhhh....my...".
Good thing that didn't actually happen in the episode.
Ya know, it'd be nice if Discord was "actually good inside" or something, but he's not. The dude enjoyed suffering. Pinkie wouldn't prank Fluttershy 'cause it'd hurt her feelings. Discord didn't care about anything as lowly as the emotions of mortals, as long as HE got a laugh. He mentally violated the ponies, and it's even more horrifying the more you think about it..
* Granny Smith dancing? But I thought her hip was busted.. oh wait.. suffering.. HE WAS MAKING HER DANCE IN PAIN! Alternately, he fixed it so she could dance.. but still mindlessly. Either way, it's both mental and physical control.
* Big Mac being turned into a dog? Sure it was kinda cute, but think about what that'd entail.. removing almost all the sentience from a living, thinking being.
And that was just one scene, and only after a few hours or days at MOST of his rule. Just imagine how much worse it'd get once he got "bored" with that? Discord is NOT a nice guy. He does NOT have a secret good side, as he didn't show remorse for ANYTHING, even cheering when he finally broke Twilight.
He's freaking Q without morality. Which'd make him more like Kefka or The Joker. And you REALLY don't wanna be with either one of those guys..
So, #2, good on an artistic level but not a ship I think we should let sail. They finally gave us a truly evil villian, and he should remain as such.
1. Ok, that is both funny and cute, he turns up a chance to talk to Rarity in exchange for watching season 2.
2. NOPE.avi. While I like the two characters (Pinkie being roughly tied with Dash for first now), something just don't seem to sit well with me in terms of this pairing. And this is coming from someone who would possibly ship Octavia with Applejack or Derpy with Rarity.
Is there something wrong with me? 'Cause comic 2 is filled with SO MUCH WIN! :D I love it! Awesome art, funny shipping, overall great job. Into my Pony folder you go~ 8D
Lol Pinkie/Pinkamena x Discord is weird, twisted, and simple AWESOME xD I dunno. I like it ^^
I saw the second one yesterday and I'll say it again since none of the people here who didn't like it apparently don't have the balls to say it: I have read the OH-SO-HORRIFYING (not really) Cupcakes, I've read the Ask Pinkamena Diane Pie, I've read Rarity's Generous Plan, I've seen tons of Scootabuse and/or filly lolicon, and I've read a Bloomberg x Fluttershy clopfic, all for shits and giggles and because none of them freak me out on an emotional level, but that comic is the most unnerving piece of fan art/comic/fic I've seen and has everything I cannot stand personally. It's fine if you like it, but hear me out.
1. Shipping in general weirds me out. There has yet to be anything in the show that justifies it's existence as plausible character developments, but yet that in and of itself is not why this disturbs me. First of all, here it is so forced that Discord convinces Pinkie that none of her friends appreciate her and laugh at her, which is a total lie that Pinkie accepts only because the author wanted a reason to ship the characters. This type of misogynist "I love him because he truly *loves* me and no one else does" is a standard trope of these types of shipping and I think it's rather regressive against the type of message the show's creators try to convey.
2. Cupcakes. Just no. It's a dumb joke that is brought up without fail every damn time Pinkie is sad or angry, and yet has no basis in the show and is completely inconsistent with her character.
3. Dear. God. That bedroom scene. *shudder* I'm just going to pit this out there, but Discord basically is a Frankenstein monster, and he almost definitely does not have pony *cough* parts. How is the idea of that bedroom scene not disturbing (unless you like that sort of interspecies thing...)?
4. A baby. WHAT. Wat. Holy fuck. HOLY FUCK.
You could say that the genuinely good art makes up for it, but it just makes it more disturbing to me. Just... why does this need to exist?
Look at ALL the hate I have for the second one :D I HATE Pinkie/Discord -.-* Pair him with Celestia, at least they could be the greatest rulers of Equestria -3-
And that's why you dislike it. You analyse it too much. I mean really, who -cares- about consistency with the characters? Tell me one darn fic that is even a great-great-nephew twice removed of the word consistency with the characters.
Enjoy it for what it is; a well-drawn and ROFL-worthy comic. I have little more than pity for those who don't enjoy fanfics of any form for any reason other than "it's not my cup of tea." Unless the fic really fell upside down with say, uncapitalized I's or lack of remotely standard grammar.
>First of all, here it is so forced that Discord convinces Pinkie that none of her friends appreciate her and laugh at her.
Uh, just going to put it out there, that's what she thought IN THE ACTUAL EPISODE. The whole point was she was twisted to think everything was laughing at her.
It doesn't take a brainiac to think if he is capable of doing that, he's capable of convincing her that he alone isn't laughing.
Pinky Pie having such a bad case of stockholm syndrom in #2 is indeed sad and I agree there's very little good in Discord. He's truly chaotic evil. But I gotta love the art. Just read it again just because it's drawn and put in scene so well.
I was really hoping that Discord would realise that pranks aren't nearly as fun when you're the only one laughing when he was talking to Grey Twilight; for a moment, it looked like they were going that route. Since he cheered and gloated instead, I'd say he doesn't care about anyone but himself.
I think some people are missing the point. 2 is almost certainly intended to be wickedly disturbing, if oddly cute. Discord is quite obviously and unrepentant wrapping Pinkie emotionally around his middle finger, much in a Harley Quinn sort of way.
At what it sets out to do, it succeeds with flying colors.
@DPV111 Adorasturbing. That's the only way I can convey how I feel about Comic #2.
Discord Pie...it's like a train wreck. You don't want to stare, but you just can't take your eyes off it. It's so wrong, and in some morbid fashion...just so right.

Yeah, like a baws Spike is thing now, innit? xD
ReplyDeleteThe end of the second 1 is good
ReplyDeleteoh my
ReplyDeleteThe Discordpie comic is fabulously well done. It's sweet even if it is rather psychotic ^^
ReplyDeleteYeah, Dicord straightened Pinkie's hair out. Wanna guess how?
ReplyDelete...and then I was bacon!
ReplyDeleteWait....WHAT DID I JSUT READ. Oh number two, you break my mind so good.
ReplyDelete#2 that's......umm..........well alrighty then.
ReplyDeleteI liked the first one.
ReplyDeleteAll I could think on the second was "lolwut"
That second comic...
ReplyDeleteFirst I was like: "What the f..."
But then I was like "I'm okay with this."
In the end, I had to admit that I really liked it.
Dear Princess... Discord shipped with Pinkamena... their child will destroy all linearity!
ReplyDelete#2 That image...of 'sexy-time' Pinkie Pie, forever burned in my brain. Oh gawd the burning. And yet, the two of them really would make an interesting couple.
ReplyDelete1: Like a Bawss
ReplyDelete2: ...Ooooookaaaaaaay...
Pinkie has embraced the end of reality and made babies with it.
ReplyDeleteExploding with awesome here.
1: Shit's Legit
ReplyDelete2: Shit's Legit

ReplyDeleteI saw comic 2 coming a mile away. Even before S2E1 aired.
ReplyDeleteThat second one.... It..... Seems so possible it's amazingly "what"....
ReplyDeleteDiscord x Pinkie Pie, I am quite okay with this.
ReplyDeleteHNNNNNGGGG DISTORT SPHERE IS ADORABLE 8D
#1 Full of win
ReplyDeleteI literally went "AAAHHHHH MY EYES" on #2 when I scrolled down. X.x
I meant Discord used a strong hairspray and a brush on Pinkie's mane.
ReplyDeleteWhat'd you sick fucks think I was insinuating?
Oh I don't know...#2 didn't seem that bad...Pinkie has some nice erm...bedroom eyes...<.<...>.>...
ReplyDeleteI've seen FAR worse than #2. Honestly. At least this one was well drawn.
ReplyDeleteAlright, REVIEW TIME.
ReplyDelete#1 : Funny, simple, short and awesome. Not much more to say.
#2. Now... here's where it starts. Did NOT see that coming at all. Pinkie's angry face in the first panel is quite scary. And everything that follows. Well, there's a 'Cupcakes' reference, shipping, and everything else you'd expect... yeah, that about sums it up...
Ugh, weird comic is weird. So, did Discord fall in love with Pinkimena, or Pinkie Pie? Or both?
ohhh the second one.....LOLWUT
ReplyDelete#2
ReplyDelete...
I like the look and everything but... That's just not my thing.
*Moves on to 'Want'*
Heh, seeing panel 1 of #2, my first reaction, "Dude, don't piss her off, she is going to fucking RAPE YOU"
ReplyDeleteThen I was like
".......close enough."
Megusta.png Dat last comic... Now THAT was an insteresting spinoff...
ReplyDeleteDiscordPie is my new OTP. These two gods of chaos were made for each other.
ReplyDeleteThat second one is...um...well.
ReplyDeleteyeah.
Spike being a bawss is always great.
ReplyDeleteThe art in #2 was wonderful and really pulled the whole thing together.
1000 years later...
ReplyDeleteIn the most ironic outcome little Distort Sphere grows up to become the savior of Equestria after rising up and slaying his parents, ushering in a millennium of peace and harmony by becoming it's beloved prince and benevolent ruler.
1. Got up at 6:30 AM (central) last Saturday. Gonna do that every Saturday.
ReplyDelete2. That's...that's....that's the wrong Pinkie. O_O
2 cont. Well, that ending interestingly. Slowly becoming a fan of Discord/Pinkie...but Discord/Celestia is still top dog.
I like the second one. I'm honestly surprised that I haven't seen a full on discord / pinkie shipfic, considering how much potential is there. And this is coming from someone who's not even normally a fan of shipfics.
ReplyDeleteOr heck, even just one where Pinkie becomes some sort of Discord cultist. Maybe he's sending her dreams or visions or something and trying to get her to free him. I mean let's face it, Pinkie WANTED everything to stay random and chaotic. That was her groove.
GAH I wish I had time to write it!
Inb4 shitsto- Oh nevermind...
ReplyDelete#2 Is bloody hilarious if you ask me, AND it has great art to boot!
1. Spike has the right idea.
ReplyDelete2. I am slightly disturbed now...
Pinkie's angry growl and wolf-like teeth are quite intimidating.
ReplyDeleteWell I think I found the comic that sums up the fandom.
ReplyDeleteI saw #2 on Ponibooru but never thought it'd be on here... I mean look at that Pinkie...
ReplyDeleteEverything that was on my mind about Pinkie and Discord came together in the second comic. And it was glorious.
ReplyDelete2nd comic made me cringe. Dunno why, I've seen plenty of this r34 before, but this just really made me cringe.
ReplyDelete#1 Seen this one before, I liked it.
ReplyDelete#2 Uhm, the art styles good but I can't say I like it.
Meeeeeeeeeessssshhhh...
ReplyDeleteThe second one...
Makes me feel skivvy...
#1 - Eeyup.wav
ReplyDelete#2 - I gradually went from "Oh sweet baby Luna WHY?" to imokaywiththis.png
Because it's not the weirdest thing to come out of this fandom.
First comic is funny. Whenever I'm watching ponies, whether it be Season 1 or 2, it's always LIKE A BAWS.
ReplyDeleteThe second comic is certainly interesting. Of course it turned to shipping. Seems like you can't get Discord and Pinkie in the same room together without it suddenly turning to shipping.

2. HEADS ASPLODE!
ReplyDeleteDiscord Pie anyone?
ReplyDelete1: Yep
ReplyDelete2: Nope
That second comic scares me a little...
ReplyDelete0_o *twitch*
darned implications...
ReplyDelete#1 - This is why Spike is one of my favorite characters. He reminds me so much of myself.
ReplyDelete#2- OH GOSH WHAT DID I JUST LOOK AT...DiscordPie? Ugh...my mind feels violated.
#1. LIKE A BAWSS
ReplyDelete#2. oh lawdy......
Wait...#1...He's watching season 2 of a show about Twilight and -
ReplyDeleteOh god. My brain. The hurting.
#2: Expected that. Distort Sphere is adorable.
Dear Princess Celestia,
ReplyDeleteToday I learned what it feels like to Baww and vomit in my mouth a little at the same time. It was warm, and not at all in a good way.
Your faithful student,
Phil Srobeighn
While I'm not a fan of DiscoPie, the second comic is REALLY well drawn. Q.Q
ReplyDeleteChristopher Walken x Pinkie Pie > DiscordPie.
ReplyDeleteThat was my first reaction.
I ship DiscordPie~
ReplyDeleteThe 2nd comic...>__<
ReplyDeleteSaucy Pinkie is best Pinkie?
ReplyDelete@Phil Srobeighn
ReplyDeleteYou would not believe how many letters I have recieved to that effect today.
Celestia, maybe you could banish this comic to the moon. Not trying to give you orders, or anything, but you know, maybe it'd be best. Hint hint.
ReplyDelete#2 It's sweet, it looks disneylike, and it's downright disturbing.
ReplyDelete#2 w00t! Awesome!
ReplyDelete#2...
ReplyDeleteI'm... not entirely sure of my opinion on this...
Saw #2 a few days ago, one of my yet-to-be brony friends said I was going to hate her when she showed me it (She knows I'm pretty much a die-hard PinkieDash fan). I can't say I like the shipping of Pinkie and Discord very much..... Celestia and Discord make more semse, honestly.
ReplyDeleteLovely artwork, at least.
#1: Spike, Spike, Spike..... We all do that every Saturday.
Liked the first one for the art. But the second one. What the fudgesicles?
ReplyDelete#2, I am fairly certain this would cause a rupture in the fabric of the universe.
ReplyDelete#2 is just a bit creepy.
ReplyDelete#2 Well Discord does have 'Chocolate Rain' at his disposal ^^
ReplyDeleteControversial doesn't even begin to describe the second one.
ReplyDelete#1 Watching MLP in MLP? Ponyception!
ReplyDelete#2 Is weird but cute, I think Pinkie / Discord would make a great shipping couple o.o
I... What?
ReplyDeleteDear god, that second one.
ReplyDeleteThat's simultaneously the best and worst thing I've ever read, especially since Discord went the Loony Toons route and acted as doctor for his son's birth.
@Mike
ReplyDeleteIt hurt my stomach.
2, great art...but terrible, cupcakes, discordpie, saucy Pinkie? Way above controversial.
ReplyDelete2. >mfw: http://youtu.be/aYAGB11YrSs?t=29s
ReplyDeleteI thought shipping with Discord was just an inside joke, up til now.
ReplyDeleteThis fandom can still surprise me. O_o
Yay controversy!
ReplyDeletePersonally I don't innately dislike the idea of characters whom I essentially view as human in mind being cast in situations like that. Don't see why parody and non-canon derivative works should be rejected solely for acknowledging parts of the human experience in a playful manner. Especially since people don't seem to have a problem with grimdark bringing in far, far worse things.
Discord commits genocide against the alicorns in one comic? Totally fine, no one's going to comment on how that goes against the spirit of the show. Pinkie shows some non-explicit flank for the sake of furthering the joke? Controversy!
#2
ReplyDeleteUm... I don't even... yeah.
haha lol
ReplyDelete#1: Yeah... That really happens doesn't it?
ReplyDelete#2: At first, I was "Oh, no"... Then "WTF"... then I kept the "WTF", but with a layer of awesomeness.
PS: Discord x Pinkie. The idea send chills down my spine... Mainly because it IS a pretty (un)reasonable ship.
Pinkie's the only one who semi-approved of Discord's antics. And he stated that she was his favourite. =)
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete*reads second comic*
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAGGHHH!!! DO NOT WANT!!!
2. I could see that happen, It might have who knows how long a Chaos time day is compared to normal time so ya.
ReplyDeleteHaha, that second one was lolwut.
ReplyDeleteThat second one I WTF'd and Daaaaw'd.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know about #2, I-I just don't.
ReplyDeleteActually, I think I'm alright with this. I'm not ready for foals, but come on! CHOCOLATE RAIN!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I guess he's kinda cute, too.
@Celestia
You mind letting him out to play, Princess?
#1 lol
ReplyDelete#2 ಠ_à²
I saw this on ponibooru right when you posted this.
ReplyDeleteMAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGIIIIIICCC
Oh I had a feeling that #2 would show up on here at EquestriaDaily. I was right! XD
ReplyDeleteWow, #2 went to a dark place fast, and a weird place even faster.
ReplyDelete#1 YEAAAAAH
ReplyDelete#2 ...what?
Maybe their should be a warning about shipping in comics. Like, a giant WARNING, SHIPPING for people who don't like it.
ReplyDeleteJudging by the comments above, that seems to be one of the problems.
2: and then all of time was erased, forwards and backwards.
ReplyDelete@#1 k
ReplyDelete@#2ARGGGG, brain bleach!! NOW! ... Oh. Ok, I'm strangely fine with this.( Ilogicle!)
And the pre-readers were anxious about my Stone Hearts story.
ReplyDeleteOh, come on. We're all mature here. You can handle kissing. I liked #2; it was well-drawn, and Distort Sphere is really cute.
ReplyDelete@Kujiiro Your comment made me lol as much as the comic itself. I sincerely think 'embraced the end of reality and made babies with it' must now enter the formal lexicon of the modern age.
ReplyDeleteLove DiscordXPinkie/Pinkamena. Screw you all who think its weird. I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThata... I don't know how to respond to that...
ReplyDelete#2: Whataya expect? He gave her chocolate rain, after all.
ReplyDelete>CUPCAKES
ReplyDeleteDEAR GOD
#2 See, at first I was like "Oh no..." then I saw little Distort Sphere and was like "Dawww"
ReplyDeleteI've totally done that lol. My friends are like what are you doing Saturday morning? And I'm like dude I got to work in the morning man, I may be free around noon.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteOh shalone made the second one? No wonder it looked familiar.
ReplyDelete*Reads #2*
ReplyDeleteDon't know if want.
#2 can't be unseen!
ReplyDeleteWelps.
ReplyDeleteThe second comic makes a lot more sense than I am comfortable with.
@Pinkie Pie
ReplyDeleteThats probably not the best idea, how about I just make it rain chocolate and cola with a side helping of candyfloss popcorn stormclouds for a bit?

A POX UPON YOU AND YOUR LOW-RES LINKS, SETH
ReplyDeletePinkie Pie....bedroom eyes.... oh gawd why do I like it so
ReplyDeleteStill not sure why spike wants to watch season 2....when he's IN season 2
1. Ok, that is both funny and cute, he turns up a chance to talk to Rarity in exchange for watching season 2.
ReplyDelete2. NOPE.avi. While I like the two characters (Pinkie being roughly tied with Dash for first now), something just don't seem to sit well with me in terms of this pairing. And this is coming from someone who would possibly ship Octavia with Applejack or Derpy with Rarity.
Comic 2 is equal parts disturbing, cute, funny, disturbing and... kinda, uhm... a-appealing?
ReplyDeleteI either need much more or much less of this, and it's hard to tell which. :|
...I...I...
ReplyDeleteDammit, I love #2. LOVE IT.
WHY AM I TWISTED SO?!
Is there something wrong with me? 'Cause comic 2 is filled with SO MUCH WIN! :D I love it! Awesome art, funny shipping, overall great job. Into my Pony folder you go~ 8D
ReplyDeleteLol Pinkie/Pinkamena x Discord is weird, twisted, and simple AWESOME xD I dunno. I like it ^^
I saw the second one yesterday and I'll say it again since none of the people here who didn't like it apparently don't have the balls to say it: I have read the OH-SO-HORRIFYING (not really) Cupcakes, I've read the Ask Pinkamena Diane Pie, I've read Rarity's Generous Plan, I've seen tons of Scootabuse and/or filly lolicon, and I've read a Bloomberg x Fluttershy clopfic, all for shits and giggles and because none of them freak me out on an emotional level, but that comic is the most unnerving piece of fan art/comic/fic I've seen and has everything I cannot stand personally.

ReplyDeleteI HATE Pinkie/Discord -.-*
Pair him with Celestia, at least they could be the greatest rulers of Equestria -3-
I can appreciate #2 but its just not my cup of tea. #1 tho was cool cause its so true.
ReplyDeleteI love Pinkie Pie at 19th panel of So Much Fun.
ReplyDeleteThat was soooo adorably disturbingly adorasturbing.
ReplyDelete@Celestia
ReplyDeleteBut he was kinda cute, and I think he likes me!
And I think I kinda like him.
#1 LOL
ReplyDelete#2 0_0!!! I just vomited!
@BalaklavaPony

It doesn't take a brainiac to think if he is capable of doing that, he's capable of convincing her that he alone isn't laughing.
fist one was pretty funny/awesome, second one....took some time to process the weirdness i just experienced >_>
ReplyDeleteThe second one broke my eyes. And my brain. And my sanity. And my innocence. What was left of it, at least.
ReplyDeleteThis might be worse that Cupcakes. DiscordxPinkie is just...no.
You all just can't understand true-love and chocolate-milk-shakes!
ReplyDeletePinky Pie having such a bad case of stockholm syndrom in #2 is indeed sad and I agree there's very little good in Discord. He's truly chaotic evil.
ReplyDeleteBut I gotta love the art. Just read it again just because it's drawn and put in scene so well.
I was really hoping that Discord would realise that pranks aren't nearly as fun when you're the only one laughing when he was talking to Grey Twilight; for a moment, it looked like they were going that route. Since he cheered and gloated instead, I'd say he doesn't care about anyone but himself.
ReplyDeleteDiscordPie is the new AppleDash!
ReplyDeleteI think some people are missing the point. 2 is almost certainly intended to be wickedly disturbing, if oddly cute. Discord is quite obviously and unrepentant wrapping Pinkie emotionally around his middle finger, much in a Harley Quinn sort of way.
ReplyDeleteAt what it sets out to do, it succeeds with flying colors.
panel 19
ReplyDeleteKIND OF WANT BUT DON'T KNOW WHY
@DPV111 Adorasturbing. That's the only way I can convey how I feel about Comic #2.
ReplyDeleteDiscord Pie...it's like a train wreck. You don't want to stare, but you just can't take your eyes off it. It's so wrong, and in some morbid fashion...just so right.
Would John De Lancie be disturbed, knowing I heard everything DisQord said in his voice?
