- "So what if I'm Canadian, huh?"
- >How dare they insult you based on your nationality!
- >"No such thing as a Canadian. You're just a feral Frenchie."
- >"Faggot."
- >The laughter of two men reverbrates into your ears through the voice coil of your headset.
- >You stare at your screen, trying to come up with something witty.
- >People like you more when you act smarter than you are.
- >R-right?...
- "I-I'm English! I-I'd rather die than be one of those disgusting four-legged abominations that are the French!"
- >The echo of voices mocking you multiplies, as more people join in on the fun.
- >You knew you shouldn't have joined this damn server.
- >"That doesn't make you any better than them, fag."
- >"Ha, this leaf's in denial!"
- >"Oof, ouch, owie, they hurt my pride with their meanie insults!"
- >You hear people making spitting noises, laughter, and other generally kindergarten-tier stuff.
- >It is admittedly pretty funny, though.
- >So you start laughing with them.
- >Being sure to press your push-to-talk pedal, too.
- >Your own greatest invention, a racing pedal re-wired to function as a push-to-talk key.
- >Ever since you made this thing you didn't have to dedicate a finger to activating your mic.
- >Those open mic and voice activated plebs, ha.
- >The second the afterglow passes, you notice something.
- >Two yellow dots, reflecting off of the gloss of one of your monitors.
- >Quite big ones, too.
- >You take off one half of the headset and slowly turn around in your chair.
- >Just to meet the two yellow dots, flying in thin air, staring right at you, like two snake eyes.
- >Hm.
- >Right, Anon.
- >You're gonna try talking to it.
- "What the hell are you?"
- >"Don't 'what the hell are you' me."
- >The voice appears to come from everywhere at the same time.
- >But the dots stay there, unmoving, following your darting eyes, as if they're actually in your eyes.
- >Like two extremely dark floaties.
- >But not really.
- "I can't not 'what the hell are you' you."
- >You hear mumbles in one of your ears.
- >"Where the fuck are you, leaf?"
- >"You sure do have some loud friends there, Anon."
- "I guess I do."
- >You take off your headphones.
- >Well.
- "So what the actual hell is happening?"
- >How are you not even surprised?
- >You're acting like this kind of thing is normal.
- >Your face doesn't wanna move, at all.
- >Neither do you want to recoil in horror.
- >Even though your brain is freaking out.
- >The big yellow dots become a pair of eyes, coupled with red irises.
- >A head appears starting with big, fluffy eyebrows, and continues down into a long, horse-like neck with a trimmed black mane.
- >Then it starts becoming a mishmash of other things, with different limbs belonging to entirely unrelated animals.
- >Seems like the whole creature is now visible, and well...
- >It's not that bad, kinda?...
- >Still weird.
- >"Right."
- >The creature crosses its arms.
- >"Anon."
- "Um, yes?"
- >"We need to talk for a bit."
- >It stretches one of its arms out.
- >Wait.
- >D-did that arm just pass through the other one?
- >It snaps its fingers before you could say "What?" for what seems like the thousandth time today.
- >Darkness hits you in the eyes.
- >A sonic boom blows your ears out.
- >And a second later it all disappears, leaving nothing behind.
- >You see stars.
- >A sky dotted with little white spots, like a wall after a sloppy paintjob.
- >Inbetween them, skimpy blobs of earth, floating in mid-air.
- >And the creature.
- >Also floating, seemingly the same as the islands, with it's little legs tucked under it's unproportionally long belly.
- >Staring at you, bored, waiting for your consciousness to come back.
- >"Ah."
- >It assumes a friendly grin once again.
- >"You've alive. Good."
- >Your eyebrows shoot up.
- >Was there a chance of that not being the result?!
- >You want to open your mouth, but something's preventing you from doing that.
- >The muscles around your mouth just refuse to move.
- >"I have a proposition for you. One that you simply cannot refuse."
- >Its eyes light up, and cheeks puffen up a bit, as if it's trying hard not to laugh.
- >"Though I'd be surprised if you were to."
- >It inhales deeply before continuing.
- >"You will partake in an, hm, adventure. With me."
- >It points at itself with its sharp talons.
- >"Just for a couple of months, maybe even less, if you'll do a good job."
- >It glances you over up and down.
- >"So, what do you think? Any objections?"
- >Actually, yeah.
- >A couple.
- >You try raising your hand.
- >Doesn't budge.
- >You try wiggling your body.
- >Not listening.
- >Ah, whatever.
- >It can't be that bad.
- >"That's what I thought. Let's get you ready."
- >It snaps its talons again.
- >Darkness.
- >Sonic boom.
- >Urgh.
- >You could get used to this, probably.
- >"Time for us to meet properly."
- >You open your eyes.
- >The creature, in a top hat and a severely undersized tuxedo, enthusiastically shakes your hand.
- >Though you feel your hand moving by itself, rather than the thing's paw's tight grip shaking it.
- >You're trippin', dude.
- >Those shrooms you ate last night definitely weren't any good for you.
- >"I am Discord, the spirit of Chaos, master of Disorder, blah-blah-blah..."
- >Yeah.
- >Definitely.
- >It's the shrooms.
- >"And you, I presume, are..."
- >A long scroll with a list of names poofs into existence right between your faces.
- >"Hm..."
- "You've had so many candidates for this?"
- >There's like seventy people on the list.
- >You can't tell if those are names or just scribbles.
- >You imagine Discord's handwriting would be awful.
- >Well.
- >'Cause he doesn't really have hands, does he.
- >Just a paw and a...
- >Bird toe?
- >What do you even call that thing?
- >Must be like a griffon's hand.
- >Yeah.
- >Must be that.
- >Griffons are ought to exist in this place, right?
- >"Ah, yes."
- >You shift your attention back to Discord.
- >The scroll disappears, leaving you two staring at each other rather awkwardly.
- >"Anonymous."
- "But my name isn't--"
- >"No, no, nonono."
- >A paw just like his holds your lips shut.
- >Even though his own right arm is still in the same position it was in just a second ago, holding his chin.
- >"Your name is now Anonymous."
- >You hear clapping of an entire concert hall worth of people coming from somewhere, while Discord shakes your hand yet again.
- >...
- >You never thought you could fuck yourself up this badly.
