So, is this a button?
🕑 Added 2018-07-10 00:45:25 +0000 UTC A moment from my sleep last night that I wanted to get down on paper before I forgot about it. Discord stared at the thing on his plate. Fluttershy called it a salad and she was very fond of them, and as part of getting to know his partner better he was trying....one.
Suddenly there was a brilliant flash of magic when light subsided his Caprese Salad had vanished. In it's place was a large metal platter with Fluttershy lying on it with an apple in her mouth. Just the platter, the apple, and the mare. That's all. Discord had decided after their little romp through the multiverse to let the mare keep the magical powers he had given her. It made things more interesting. Popsicle Like right now.
Fluttershy removed the apple from her mouth and smiled at the draconequus. "Um, hello dear."
"Flutters dear, what are doing?" Asked the Lord of Chaos.
"Oh! Um, well I was talking with one of our neighbors yesterday. Uh, Petina, I can't remember if you've met her or not?"
"I've met her." Said draconequus. "And yes she's very memorable."
Although all I can remember is several gallons of lost bodily fluids and a need for a skin graft later. He thought.
This seemed to make Fluttershy perk up. "Oh good! Well, I was talking with her and she said that if we were going to be in a, um, relationship it would good for us to know what kind of, hobbies, and uh interest we might have to help us build a stronger relationship! She also said that partners will often have uh, buttons that can, um how did she say it?"
She closed her eyes and remembered Petina words. "Make things more interesting and exciting by pushing them." She also warned me about bad buttons as well, but she gave a list of them to try and see if they are buttons for you."
She looked up at Discord. "So um, is this a button for you, and is it a good button?"
Discord's wobbled up and down vigorously. Fluttershy watched this. Then she took a bite from the apple, chewed it, and then swallowed. Then she grinned.
"Yeah."
Edit update 7/10/18. Soon after posting this image yesterday afternoon I realized that I had not yet finished the piece. There were some important details where the wings and the torso met and some other minor details. So I've uploaded the new image.

That's for sure!
Baron Engel
She knows how cause a spark, that's for sure.

That mare is more dangerous than a flamethrower in a dynamite factory!
Baron Engel
Ah that is true. Fluttershy has every book and article that Petina has written under her pen name Passionate Plume, and that alone is excellent source of reference material. Why Petina's novels could almost be called treatises on the subject.

I don't think that 'implying' is the correct word here! XD I think that Fluttershy has been studying {insert preposition here} Petina and is, shall we say, a rather diligent student. That, and Discord seems like the innocent one, for all his bluster and whimsy.
Baron Engel
Why are you implying that Fluttershy is not the pillar of sincerity and innocence? For shame good sir! For shame!
Baron Engel
Petina agrees with you.
Baron Engel
Petina is a wealth of information and ideas.
Baron Engel
Petina actually can provide some very useful constructive advice when it comes to relationship. In spite of being over the top on occasion she knows what she's talking about. She's just, uh enthusiastic about it.
FalseLyra
It's impossible to imagine someone who will find this button bad.)))

Hmmm...torn between: "From eating in to eating out, eh?" and: "Caprese Salad to 'tossed' salad, eh?" And the next morning, Petina mentioned to them the practice of Nyotaimori :D

All mares can be aggressive in pursuing what they want when the mood takes them. So this is perfectly normal, and Petina seems to have given out actually sensible shealthy advice.

Why do I get the feeling that Fluttershy is more Q than Discord... So many pictures of them, she's pulling a stunt and he's wide-eyed and gobsmacked, while she has that 'innocent pony' look. It reminds of the part in the 'Spock vs Q' performances where Spock and Q trade natures, and Leonard Nimoy lets rip while John de Lancie is extremely logical and stoic. Now that would be an interesting sight, for Discord and Fluttershy to trade bodies for a day... :D
