I wonder if we will actually ever see an origin story for Discord? From what John De' Lancie is saying, it doesn't sound like the character is scheduled for any episodes past the pilot.
And following the trend of misfit ponies trying to fit in, check out some Sweetie Belle's filly stuff below!
Spike and Rarity? *twitch* They aren't even in the same biological Class, let along Order, Genus, and Species. My evolutionary biology major cannot let this crime against nature go unheeded!
Are you guys blind or something? The second comic was purposed to warm our hearts, not send sick wonders about a Spike and Rarity child in our heads. That was truly an adorable comic, and it's a shame some of you don't comment as though you acknowledge that.
Spike and Rarity...I mean they can...but it would never...I mean...Really? The idea is adorable and all but I always imagined them adopting! If they even ever well, you know got together.
Anyway since when physics and any other nature rule that we know has to exist on the world of Equestria? i mean its a "magical" world and any science or laws that we know has not be necesarily applied.
Holy Snapple. I thought that a Breeding of Rarity and Spike would make the UGLIEST thing ever. But that little guy is ADORABLE. SO. FREAKING. ADORABLE.
Ponies reproduce through a message to the stork, who delivers their offspring. As seen in Gryphons, crossbreeding isn't that taboo in Equestria. The only problem I see with a Spikity child is the age difference.
Hey, you people wanna turn 'em into fucking mermaids and shit. Might as well invent some adorable Pony/Dragon hybrids while we're at it.
"Tyrantlestia, we've recieved word of consensual inter-racial breeding in Ponyville! What are your orders?"
...
"I declare Exterminatus upon the Equestrian Town of Ponyville. I hereby sign the death warrant of an entire -again, TOWN, pay attention- and consign about...a couple hundred souls but no more than like 500 maybe souls to oblivion. May Equestrian Justice account in all balance. I Protect."
I find Gem adorable, but I'm going to assume magic was involved with his birth. I don't really want to consider how a Dragon/Unicorn relationship would work.
>mfw not caring about the biology of fantasy creatures makes you a furry. I mean, technically we're all furries by definition, but no. I'm not a furry in the sense that you mean, and I don't give two shits about the biology behind this. I look at Gem and say "D'aaaaw."
Know why? It's not because I'm a furry. It's because this is the offspring of a unicorn and a dragon in a fantasy world that only loosely follows scientific laws as we know them.
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you guys. Nobody's complaining like that at cupcakes. And cupcakes is MANY times sickier than that (If you can actually call that sick). Some even say it's a good read. Seriously, i already lost my faith in society, i hope it isn't the same with bronies. Don't disappoint me.
*Suborbital Rainbow Death Cannons backfires and explodes
*cough cough cough
"I knew I should have *cough joined the Chaos Gods instead *cough"
*Puts Suborbital Rainbow trash heap into a molecular compacter and throws the remains into the Blackhole Trashbin were it will stay Forever! Technically 20 Trillion years physics wise but meh who's counting. >:3
Damnit Right when i decide who i would ship with who and go "alright let's live Spike x Rarity out of this it will never work" someone goes and makes a d'awwwww comic that makes me want to Ship Rarity and Spike again.
anyone else realize that, by definition, a Dragon/Pony crossbreed would be a Draconequus (considering it literally means Dragon-Horse)?
Not only does this suggest Gem is technically possible if we assume Discord was born naturally, it raises some interesting questions on what he'd grow up to do...
John de Lancie not signed on for further episodes? If you need me I will be quietly sobbing in the corner over here. Cute baby Discord comic is not helping.
Re: Gem = DAMMIT, you are bringing me dangerously close to shipping them, which can only end in further tragedy. THEIR LOVE CAN NEVER BE :C
I don't think the biology is a problem at all, but the age difference? It kind of is. I think Spike's precocious crush on Rarity is adorable, but I generally don't like to take it further than that.
I always thought of alicorns as the possible offspring from dragon-pony unions considering they are rare, can both use magic and fly, have much more powerful magic than regular unicorns, live an insane amount of time and potentially grow somewhat bigger over time compared to other ponies.
And of course, nopony raises their eyebrows at Spike's crush for Rarity. x3
I also feel Discord might even been the last of a long traditional line for the ponies of having dragons as their ruler/guardian/god.
Which well, cements that idea even more, because if ponies would revere dragons as gods the idea of some of them going as far as mating with them would likely been treated as acceptable, if not a honor.
But I guess enough about that, I'll go back to my own corner of the internet now. ^^;
@Ragona You're derping a little there, have you actually read the comic? Probably Sethisto's fault. "Sweetie Belle's filly stuff below!" Oh, Sethisto, you so silly...
@Megapode QFT: "Anyone else find it funny that people are trying to apply real world biology to a UNICORN and a DRAGON?"
I think Gem is absolutely adorable (and I see Sweetie Bell got her Master Cutie Mark in singing after all).
I don't see what's so bothersome about the premise. In a fantasy realm, does it ever matter that there are hybrids of species especially when we see them all the time and never think twice about where they came from? (Equestria Examples: Griffon, Cockatrice and even Discord)
Rarity and Spike probably got all the tips they needed from Donkey and Dragon from Shrek anyway.
D'aaaaawwwww to both of them. I can't see how people are all like "eeeew, that defies the laws of physics" 1. It's fictional, anything can happen. 2. It's Ponies, anything can happen then explode...twice.
Even if I enjoyed the colored version of Gem's comic, and I genuinely want to know more through more fanfics and comics, I could'nt help but to... make a Sweetiepoo edit. Look it up on ponibooru, post #63387.
Actually, I believe that you'll find that dragons mature allot faster than other creatures, like ponies. And once they reach an age of 10-20 they stop, and begin to mature more slowly, at this point they are around 20-25 in Dragon-Years. At Spike's age, (4? 5?) It would take about five to seven years until he catches up with Rarity, making their age relationship fine. Onto the Genetics, dragons are able to...crossbreed through magical means, an ancient characteristic evolved by dragons so that they may bear offspring even if a suitable mate was not available. Even if there was some complications in the birthing of the child, they have magic that could be used to aid them. I believe that I have put all of your worries to rest, TAKE THAT, GEM HATERS!

wow the offspring of spike and rarity.That is something i never needed to see. *twitch*
VastaKustutaSweetie Belle's filly? I'm sorry? Bit of a derp there. Still, all these sad misfits always make me want to hug things.
VastaKustutaA lot.
I want a Gem fanfic NAO
VastaKustutaHe's so adorable ^^
Great, now im feeling sorry for Discord. If only he could be unfrozen form stone without tyring to cause eternal chaos.
VastaKustutaAw, Gem is adorable.
VastaKustutaI mean, he's a complete butchering of all the laws relating to reproduction. But he's adorable nevertheless.
Well they pretty much butchered physics too. Why not break all the laws is science?
VastaKustutaPSH. SCREW PHYSICS, WE HAVE PONIES.
VastaKustutaNow, I'm creeped out.
VastaKustutaSeth you fucked up; that is rarity's...

I want this on a t-shirt. LOL
I get all sad when I see that discord comic :(
VastaKustutaConfound these Bronies, they drive me to sympathize with evil characters.
Oh God, the less I think about comic #2, the more sane I'll remain? Spike and Rarity? How the hell would that even...
VastaKustutaAugh...
It's cute and all but the more I think of the offspring of Rarity and Spike...ughhhhhhh...
VastaKustutaThe artist of the second clearly likes cats. Fluffy ponies!
VastaKustutaCan Gem like...be made more? He seems adorable
VastaKustutaso I guess only Ponies can get cutie marks eh
VastaKustutaConfound you Bronies and your need to make every Villain tragic. And I wanted to feel happy today.
VastaKustutaAlso, Spike and Rarity hybrid? Sweet Jesus I don't even wanna think about what kind of fics that thing could get into.
Spike and Rarity?
VastaKustuta*twitch*
They aren't even in the same biological Class, let along Order, Genus, and Species.
My evolutionary biology major cannot let this crime against nature go unheeded!
D'AWWWWW.
VastaKustutaSeeing this gave me an idea for Discord's origin. If only I wasn't busy with something else.
I sure hope the few weeks surrounding Episode 1 and 2 won't be the peak for Discord art.
VastaKustutaDiscord you aren't a pony! So you don't get one.
VastaKustutaUnless...
"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS AGENTS OF CHAOS, YAY!"
Gem's cute.

VastaKustutaThis makes no sense! Even for Ponies!
@Sonic Rainblast
VastaKustutaYou said everything. I wish i knew how to arrange words so good.
Screw biology, SpikeXRarity FTW!
VastaKustuta@ Favo
VastaKustutaSeconded.
@ Favo
VastaKustutaMe too
Anyway since when physics and any other nature rule that we know has to exist on the world of Equestria? i mean its a "magical" world and any science or laws that we know has not be necesarily applied.
I think this is the first time a comic actually made me CRY.
VastaKustutaBeing on the outside looking in is never fun. Poor Discord ;-;
Progression of thoughts:
VastaKustuta*first comic*
"D'aww...see, that's really in the spirit of the show: just because somebody is different doesn't mean they're worth any less than anybody el-"
*second comic*
"OH GOD WHAT THE FUCK GET IT AWAY IT BURNS."
Welp, I feel great now. :/
Holy Snapple. I thought that a Breeding of Rarity and Spike would make the UGLIEST thing ever. But that little guy is ADORABLE. SO. FREAKING. ADORABLE.
VastaKustutaFrom the 3rd Edition Dragonomicon: "Dragons are notoriously virile, able to crossbreed with virtually any creature"

Anyone else find it funny that people are trying to apply real world biology to a UNICORN and a DRAGON?
VastaKustutaGem fanfic.
VastaKustutaMAKE IT HAPPEN
I find Gem adorable, but I'm going to assume magic was involved with his birth. I don't really want to consider how a Dragon/Unicorn relationship would work.

NAO go, read till your eyes turn to liquid in there socets!
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you guys. Nobody's complaining like that at cupcakes. And cupcakes is MANY times sickier than that (If you can actually call that sick).

VastaKustutaWe fans try so hard, we really do!
VastaKustutaI was expecting a huge chorus of D'awwwwwwwwwww in the comments, but instead its about everyone dissaproving of Rarispike lol.
VastaKustutaGem is Awesome.
VastaKustutaAnd what's wrong with Rarispike? Her only other option is Tom, and imagine what THOSE kids would look like.
VastaKustutaUnless you want to put her in a battered housewife situation and match her with Blueblood. Ick.
Rarity x Spike!!!! Yaaaaayyyy!!!

VastaKustutadaw, yes
haters, you guys are pervs...
why do you guys have to over complicate magical ponies and fictional dragons with your science?

Twilight: *scowls*

@Daniel the Brony (Mama's so proud...)
VastaKustutaI'll start on one as soon as the owner of Gem grants me the permission to use Gem.
...I thought the Shrek series already confirmed that equine/dragon reproduction was possible?
VastaKustutaJohn de Lancie not signed on for further episodes? If you need me I will be quietly sobbing in the corner over here. Cute baby Discord comic is not helping.
VastaKustutaRe: Gem = DAMMIT, you are bringing me dangerously close to shipping them, which can only end in further tragedy. THEIR LOVE CAN NEVER BE :C

But then Gem comes along and HNNG
@Hydra in a Top Hat
My god, man, I...I like this theory. I don't think it actually works that way, but I quite like it.
MUST HATE UGH DISCORND NOT HNNG DOING GOOD HATE IS ARGH NOT STANDING WELL.
VastaKustutaWell played Spike. Well played... LIKE A BAWSS
VastaKustutaMassive Daaw as soon as I said that 2nd comic. Really.
VastaKustutaWell spike has been watching Shrek for Tips
VastaKustuta1. Discord you don't need anything on your rump
VastaKustuta2. A baby Pony dragon
2. And so the Kirin came into being.
VastaKustutaI always thought of alicorns as the possible offspring from dragon-pony unions considering they are rare, can both use magic and fly, have much more powerful magic than regular unicorns, live an insane amount of time and potentially grow somewhat bigger over time compared to other ponies.

Thats not Rarity, thats Sweetie Bell. Check the cutie mark.
VastaKustutaAlso, I want a fanfic of that. Even though shipping a baby dragon and a filly is kind of creepy.
@Ragona
VastaKustutaYou're derping a little there, have you actually read the comic? Probably Sethisto's fault. "Sweetie Belle's filly stuff below!" Oh, Sethisto, you so silly...
SCREW THE RULES, I HAVE PONY!
VastaKustutaNot to mention for Spike to be that size, Rarity would have to be around middle age.
VastaKustutaNevertheless, cute baby.
2nd comic was dangerously furry

2. It's Ponies, anything can happen then explode...twice.
Man you guys, get your head out of the gutter. I read that second comic and my heart melted.
VastaKustutaEveryone knows dragons can breed with anything with a pulse, anyway.
Even if I enjoyed the colored version of Gem's comic, and I genuinely want to know more through more fanfics and comics, I could'nt help but to... make a Sweetiepoo edit.
VastaKustutaLook it up on ponibooru, post #63387.
awww both of those were a good mix of sad and cute

VastaKustutaIf i ever see you in real life, i "cannot help but to" stab a kitchen knife through your chest and clean it with my tongue.
#2 Colored version is even more cute~
VastaKustutaSo gem's a unicorn/dragon...
VastaKustutacan I get an OVERPOWERED!
I mean think about it...dragon with spell capabilities.
