Fluttershy is about to learn that straying away from a familiar groove can lead one to face something—or someone—incredibly weird. All it takes is a simple and noble wish: to be more useful.
Thankfully, even that which dwells beyond normality can't resist the primal urge to make Fluttershy smile.
Takes place between Rainbow Rocks and Friendship Games, not that that's of any importance.
Nicely done and well surprised.
I expected a story about just Discord clumsily helping Fluttershy while messing around in the human world, but then learn that Discord was actually an Anonymous like social group on the Internet that may or not involve him is genus. More so with how internet of today acts like on supporting or attacking people.
I thought that part was really funny
So Discord is basically Equestria Girls' version of Anonymous? That's pretty clever I've felt like there hasn't been a really good interpretation of Discord in the Equestria Girls fanfiction, his powers and physical appearance really make him hard to anthropomorphize and bring into the setting. But I liked this interpretation
I am a little curious, why did Micro Chips say that Discord wouldn't forgive him for talking about them? It appears to be a fairly open group, is there any particular reason why they'd be opposed to him talking about it?
Fan of Durarara!! ?
This was a neat story! I liked it.
totally thought it was going to be an awkward discord, or the ponyverse one visiting. Discord being a conglomeration of internet people is really cool, I loved when that was revealed!

7815544 I'm glad you found it funny, I was pretty self-conscious about labeling this "comedy" Guess it still doesn't mean it qualifies, but at least one of my jokes made someone laugh, I'll take it for now
As for Micro Chips, well I actually don't really know or understand the culture of "anonymous" but I always thought they could be rather self-aware and they probably realize that Fluttershy would find the whole situation pretty creepy or weird. Or at least Micro Chips gives them too much credit.
7815879 No idea what that is Well, I mean, I have some idea after googling it, but no, I've never read it before.
7815932 I'm glad the reveal worked, I was afraid it would be somewhat obvious beforehand. Couldn't really judge that in my own story.
You know Discord is an actual social group, right? In this world? Did you mean that one?
7816143 You mean that (voice-)chat program that's meant to slowly replace Skype? Or is there an actual group of people? Either way no, this was meant to be something like Anonymous from the chans.
7816158 it's the one with the purple icon.

I see where you are going but the fact that it's anonymous, the tight & strong community and that last action gives me more of a 4chan vibe...
