made this for an art-trade with my dear friend :iconlorettafox:.
 
 
She is a big Discolight fan, and is the author of the now completed story These Dreams: The Mane Story and is currently working on the MLP FIM story Renew
 
I am honored to assist her whenever I can in her stories. :nod:
 
She made me this special picture I requested of Twilight and Flam, which was based on a scene from These Dreams: The Mane Story I REALLY liked my picture, and I was just SO desperate to think of how I was going to create something just as nice.
 
When she asked for a picture involving Discord and Twilight dancing, I suddenly recalled my recently completed MLP FIM cartoon crossover story “Chaotic Order” (and JUST the MLP FIM version “Discordant Feelings”) and remembered the dance scene in there that completely parodied “Beauty and the Beast”. :idea:
 
So now I figured out a good picture to make for my friend, and I am truly happy to draw Twilight’s gold and red dress once again. The first time I drew it was here But during the dance scene in the story, she changed her hair…and her dress is now worn a different way. :giggle: Admit it, Twilight is a TOTAL Disney princess here; definitely a Belle in my opinion. ;)
 
And Discord…fangirls, hope you like it. :XD:
 

 
For anyone who hasn’t read my story “Chaotic Order”, here’s an excerpt from chapter 13, part 2
 
 
Finally, after several moments and she felt she had her fill, Twilight slowly lifted herself up from her seat and gracefully walked over to Discord. The Draconequus was quite confused by her action, even more so when her hooves grasped his lion paw, asking for him to get up.
 
“What are you doing?” He asked as he stood from his seat, being slightly pulled by the smiling unicorn.
 
“What every birthday needs,” she said simply as she brought him toward the center of the ballroom. “Dancing.”
 
His eyes widened a bit, but then he nodded. “Oh, alright,” he scoffed, “so should I or you start the shuffle?”
 
“Not that dancing,” she snapped as she rolled her eyes. “Like how they do in the gala…”
 
“That kind of dancing?” He asked in disbelief. “Though I’m quite a natural at that sort, that style isn’t much my taste.” And he checked his lion paw to indicate his boredom on the matter.
 
“Please, Discord,” she begged, “it’s my birthday, too.”
 
Discord gazed into those pleading purple eyes of hers. Sighing in defeat, he lifted up a hand to her.
 
Before he knew it, Twilight grasped his lion paw with one hoof, and her other was gently placed on his side, considering she his height towered over hers. Discord didn’t even realize that his lion paw grasped her hoof while his eagle claw was pressed to her side as well.
 
Twilight beamed, proud that this was turning out exactly as she had read in one of her books on ‘perfect ballroom dancing’. Suddenly, her eyes widened in realization.
 
“Music!” She exclaimed. “We need music!”
 
Discord smirked. “Not a problem.” And temporarily removing his paw from her hold, he snapped his fingers.
 
Across the room, there appeared a stereo system that blared soft, melodic music.
 
“Boring, isn’t it?” He asked her.
 
“But it fits,” she countered as she grasped his paw once more.
 
The dance started out a little difficult, Discord’s mismatched feet keeping up with Twilight’s hooves as they tried to go in rhythm; he was actually messing up on purpose just to annoy her.
 
Though that quickly ceased as he suddenly found himself in exact tune with her ability as they glided across the ballroom. Twilight was amazed by how quickly be picked up as her body soared as he became the guide in this dance.
 
Slow but upbeat, mesmerizing yet fun. If this were the gala or any special event…
 
“This dance seems so old as time itself, doesn’t it?” Discord asked, pretending to give a yawn.
 
“Well,” she rolled her eyes as they continued dancing, “true as it can be…” she agreed half-heartedly.
 
Discord took notice that her eyes lowered as they gazed into his, her smile soft as her gold and red dress. He found himself pressed against her as she embraced him while still holding his lion paw.
 
“I’m glad to do it with my best friend,” she said softly.
 
Hearing that, and while doing this, Discord couldn’t hold back his grin.
 
This was the best birthday ever.
 

 
Hope you like it, :iconlorettafox:, I had so much fun making this. :hug:
