Description

Stockholm’s daddy never failed to make every moment fun, especially when it came to bedtime stories. Discord always had something new in store to entertain his daughter, and tonight was no different as he tucked her into bed.
 
“Daddy, tell me how you were made!”
 
“Oh, but haven’t I already told you Dumpling? Are you sure you want to hear it again?”
 
Discord smirked, already knowing that she’d insist like she did every night.
 
Stockholm crossed her arms.
 
“You promised! I remember, you said you would at dinner!”
 
“Alright, you got me.”
 
Discord settled down on a cotton candy cloud next to her.
 
“Five billion years ago, Gaia created the universe-“
 
“Nuh uh! The universe is almost 14 billion years old!” Stockholm corrected him.
 
Discord chuckled and played along.
 
“Okay, she created the earth, but before that she was terribly bored with the universe. She wanted a little chaos in her life. So she found a teensy little piece of sponge-“
 
He snapped his fingers and summoned a small sponge tablet to demonstrate.
 
“-and dropped it into her cup of sparkling water, just to see what would happen. And voila!”
 
He dropped the tablet into a cup of water, turning it into a miniature clone of himself.
 
“Gaia unleashed chaos on the universe!”
 
Instead of gaping in awe at his tricks, Stockholm sat in deep thought.
 
“Wait a minute…that’s not right, Daddy. Because last week you said you were older than Gaia so she couldn’t have made you. And if this was before the earth was made, sparkling water couldn’t have existed either! And what about the story you told last month about the stallion who built you out of animal parts? You can’t be older than the earth AND younger than Equestria! It doesn’t make sense!”
 
“Oh, but what fun is there in making sense?”
 
Discord picked Stockholm up and ruffled her hair.
 
“You’re too smart for your own good, Jellybean. I can’t get away with anything.”
 
“That’s because I remember everything! You can’t fool me, Daddy!”
 
Stockholm playfully blew a raspberry at him.
 
“I suppose that’s true, Precious. But we can still have a little chaotic fun! I’ll tell you another story tomorrow.”
 
“I’ll make sure you don’t forget!”
