"Discord's Puppet" - MLP Grimdark Song

[@Magpiepony]

Loss of Free Will

[@CReeseMLP_OW]

I Agree But When u lose Something or someone most dear u cant let the person or Pony go. So u Make An Object Like A Puppet Look like that Individual Right??

[@sillystarsnskulls]

Something you experienced that I wish upon no one. I can’t explain the feeling you feel without bringing out baggage and I want to move on and say from that so I’ll just say. Ink is no longer your master, you are your master.

[@abinatorholmes5030]

Magpiepony you were amazing as fluttershy!!!! I hope you love the dresses I made for you and losty on my tractor Tippin crossover! From cars!! Including the rest of our friends! But don’t worry there will be more on the way But anyways Keep up the great work you guys cannot wait to see more!!!!!

What the story behind this?

[@whatamesscollectivearchive6339]

Great job on this!

[@Ch4osSinse]

Thumbnail aside: With that kind of music I imagined Fluttershy rather being a little figurine which is slowly spinning round and round on top of a small music box while Discord is listening to these sweet tunes unable to hear her lament. I really like that song but "...On My Bow" still remains my favourite one. :D

[@WarpVorteX]

bro its not a real thing why are you like saying it that

[@sadboi1135]

Aight,here's the best backstory I could come up with: So Fluttershy passes and Discord grief stricken is unable to move on and so in his desperation to not let Fluttershy go he resurrects her corpse and traps her soul inside,little does he know refusing to let her move on is only causing her to suffer.

@@Ara_Ara_MamaI tried to search up “Discords puppet” but I’m only getting the song

[@stevesamuals2651]

I've read plenty a fanfic about flutters mortality compared to discords immortal soul. I've seen him lose his immortality to die with her, I've seen him offer her immortality, and I've seen others cover his grief for the loss. But this?! This is a new level of a twisted idea. Though it reminds me of a story I once wrote about a pooltoy. It delt with how he watches a family grow up, gets boxed away, and feels happy again to see them change. Needless to say, the story was bittersweet. I don't think I even have the notebook I wrote it in anymore. Too many bad memories.

[@savannahhague4989]

What if it'd be like night if the living dummy where he made they puppet to help with his grief but he accidentally repeats words in a book or something he found in Twilight's library and it brings Fluttershy back.

I didn’t like being a puppet...

[@ezeahrizcalupas6280]

Well... sometimes its difficult to let someone you know and love go that's why discord can't let fluttershy go.

[@unnamed1613]

If Fluttershy would pass away Discord would probably go completly mad. She is his only connection to sanity at this point. When i think back to the season six finale, he has gone enrage for a moment just because he heared she got kidnapped. When she would die, he would probably annihilat whoever is responsible, even if it´s time itself.

[@bigoldinosaur]

This is definitely one of, if not the most, depressing sad songs in the fandom and I mean that in the best way. The first time I listened to it I didn't really hear the song but the second time I understood and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Magpiepony once again you have hit me right in the feels, well done my dear.

[@ColtenTheCartoonLovingBrony]

This song is so chilling because it strikes a message on how real it can get with love over someone. It’s scary that a person can be in love with something so much that they become so obsessed with their crush or ex-partner they eventually become so detach from reality and they start to go insane and outta desperation they search for last efforts and ways to spend time with them.

[@justzombie7594]

Okay, I really love the fluff-Fluttercord, BUT THIS VERSION IS just AWESOME. More DARKNESS! No cute stuff. Just DARKNESS. Cruel! Hurts! Unfair! No "love and such things"! This is definitely what was needed to have something fresh. A bad thing with a very bad ending. That's fucking awesome.

[@FelipeVersoOFC]

This is scarier than any FNAF song I've ever heard.

[@justaseal]

yo this song still gives me chills each time i listen to it, even this far into the future, like holy shit, the thought of being held prisoner like that and losing your free will and basically being a puppet to someone with really no way of escape is terrifying, the song reflects that thought perfectly, great work

[@azureflame2223]

Wow this is good. while I'm sure this song isn't a reference to it I still remember an old grimdark reading of discord being unable to accept fluttershys death and bringing them back in the same way. The lyrics are really good and I love the choice of song as well. I hope you have a good hallows eve

[@BellaPinkSavage]

Oh my God! That’s just Twisted!

[@sunflowers-in-tulips6705]

So this is one way it can end for Discord and Fluttershy if they ever get together... many people have been pointing out that Discord will outlive Fluttershy and therefore if they fall in love, he will be heartbroken, but heres the thing. No one lives forever and if we dont live in the moment and appreciate what we have its all gonna slip away. That isnt to say that Discord wont outlive her, he will, but he will just have to let go and move on. I actually thought about writing a fanfic about what would come next. I ship Fluttercord and I do beleive that it doesnt have to be a sad ending for them, Discord will treasure her in his heart forever, but he will move on. It would really move his character further, since he acts a bit childish and likes messing around quite often and its in his nature. He would have so much growth this way if he was able to really let her go. Oh but this is a beautiful song and you sound exactly like Fluttershy, you have a very beautiful voice! ❤

[@vegetafan9922]

Many, many years later A young orphan filly gets lost in Everfree forest during a thunderstorm until she finally finds shelter inside an old cabin that looks abandoned. She sneaks inside through a doggie door and finds that it's full of many other woodland creatures also finding shelter from the storm she looks around in amazement until she hears a voice behind her say "Well now, it's not very often that we have visitors.". The filly turns around in surprise to see who said that and almost screams at what she sees. She begins trembling and crying only for the creature to say "Oh dear, I'm so very sorry that I startled you. I am Sir Discord, the caretaker of the animals whom call Everfree home. Please, feel free to sit while I get the fireplace going, then I'll get us a nice pot of tea. How does that sound? The little filly getting over the initial shock nods her head and tries to smile. "How wonderful." Discord says. "I do believe that this is the beginning of a new friendship."

This represents one possible solution to the problem of the MLP dialectic; by which I mean the gradual consolidation of magical supremacy in Discord. Now that the Elements of Harmony are destroyed, the one thing standing in the way of Discord laying waste to Equestria is the disapproval of one very mortal pony.

[@honeybun8823]

I think the reason that he put her soul inside of a puppet was so she would never leave him. He knew she was going to die way before him and he didn’t want to have to live without her, so before that could happen, he cursed her soul into a puppet he created so she could live with him forever. Her soul just wants to pass on and Rest In Peace but instead it it forced to remain inside of the puppet he created and she has no free will with him as well as no way to get help. She’s stuck forever and is pleading with him to be let out and allowed to pass on but he doesn’t want to loose her, so she probably won’t be allowed to pass on. Now, like she says, she doesn’t feel any love for him anymore, rather she just feels rage towards him. The kindness that she used to have and display is all gone and now replaced with a burning rage for discord for what he has done to her. The only reason she sounds so kind is because she is also a puppet so he still have control over her, which is also why she talks to him politely and thanks him for coming. (Also, I think he is like having a tea party with her like they always used to have when they became friends)

[@PrederNationteam74]

I’ve read something like this, discord resurrects fluttershy, but she’s a bit dark, she hardly talks or moves really slowly, at the end of the story, the mane 5 try to release fluttershy, and as she becomes a husk, she is clutching a lamp of discord that she reached for because she didn’t wanna go, and discord casts thunder and lightning at the end, it is described in the story he had this rage inside his eyes, ready to murder
