mercykilledwithkindness-deactiv asked: Do you follow the words of Friedrich Nietzsche? 'In some remote corner of the universe, poured out and glittering in innumerable solar systems, there once was a star on which clever animals invented knowledge. That was the highest and most mendacious minute of 'world history' - yet only a minute. After nature had drawn a few breaths the star grew cold, and the clever animals had to die.'
We have become aware of Nietzsche through Our explorations of the human internet, yes. A human of remarkable ideas, that one. While much of his nihilistic ethics don’t hold water in a world in which you can invite your deities over to afternoon tea, his concepts of the will to power and the übermensch (übermare?) We find to be intriguing. We shall definitely be incorporating some of his ideas into Our rule.
I was going to start with a threat, but damn… It’s kind of boring. I think I’ll observe you for a while.
We don’t remember ever posing for this particular portrait, but it is quite lovely. We find it captures our inner torment at being separated from Luna nicely.
ask-theroguetrader-deactivated2 asked: Nightmare Moon, How are you able to so easily obtain the information that you have about the various ponies whose files you have so kindly put up for all to see? Is it a web of informants? Magical means of infiltration? Or all of the above? I'm very curios, because such techniques are very highly sought after. Sincerely, General Hoofington, Equestrian Guard
Though Our separation from Luna has reduced Our power considerably, it has granted us a few new abilities. We can move Our spirit unseen throughout Equestria, to observe Our enemies.
We also have learned to directly access the ponynet with our magic. It’s strange, this new world, that fiddling with a few silicon switches and flakes of magnetic powder can bring such opportunities.
Anonymous asked: Nightmare Moon, you want to take over Equestria right? then why reveal all your scouting notes you possess on the enemy to the enemy?
We do so because We are so certain of Our inevitable success, We wish for Our enemies experience the dread of seeing their inevitable doom!
Also, be assured that if there is something Our plans require to remain secret, We will not be simply blabbing it out on the ponynet.
Worship the rightful Queen of Equestria!: #1 - The Element of Laughter -
Do not allow appearances to deceive you, Our servants. THIS is the face of the greatest threat to Our rule besides Celestia herself.
SHE IS IMPOSSIBLE! By all the rules that govern the world a creature like this should not exist. AND YET IT DOES!
First she’s here, next she’s in a bell,…
Okay Nightmare Moon well let’s say that it IS ‘good’ that you are back on tumblr again…
I can’t let you ponyliate my Friends and that why i’m going to bid your forehead!
1# THE ELEMENT OF LAUGHTER
This is one of my dearest friends Pinkie Pie! She is Pink she is silly she loves Partys she is Random… But on all that facts she is a very good friend to hang out with! She posseses a natural ability to make everypony happy! Her Parties are legendary!
She loves to bake for her Friends, playing Pranks and Singing and in every disciplin she is above-average!
She is usually portraying a comedy character who is often seen useless but despite her random silly character she is a good friend and her Singing and natural Cheerfulness can turn the darkest times… IN PARTY TIMES!!!!!!
1# Element of Laughter - done!
And with THIS Nightmare Moon i’m going to declare a war against you! I’m going to DESTROY every SINGLE Argument of yours!
Bring it on, Rainbow Crash (such an appropriate nickname…). In case you missed some of Our glorious words, we have already posted such profiles of all your friends (and of you). And, as We didn’t note you for being skilled with words, We will await the inevitable mirth your pathetic counter arguments will bring.

Anonymous asked: I admit Nightmare Moon, I had a hearty chuckle at the abomination of science bit. Everyone seems to think that of me. But wouldn't something that is not expected in your realm be of ever greater use to you? You ponies are so used to magic and emotions, a cold unfeeling 'abomination of science' could be what you need right now.
Oh, it wasn’t meant as an insult dear. Unlike Our sister, We understand the necessity of such things. Once it is time for Us to move openly against the sun-hag, We will definitely give you a call.
Do not allow appearances to deceive you, Our servants. THIS is the face of the greatest threat to Our rule besides Celestia herself.
SHE IS IMPOSSIBLE! By all the rules that govern the world a creature like this should not exist. AND YET IT DOES!
First she’s here, next she’s in a bell, next she’s in a basket, next she’s inside a piano. All without even the slightest hint of magic. And whats more, she shattered Our illusions with nothing but a laugh and a song-and-dance number. Again, without any hint of magic. All We have been able to learn about her impossible powers are vague whispers about ‘fourth walls’ and 'rules of funny’.
After Our defeat, We followed each Element for a while, invisible, hoping to learn their weaknesses. Despite Our invisibility Pinkie would, on occasion, look straight at Us and offer Us some sort of confection. It was enough to give even Us the shivers.
We have NO idea what to do about this one. She seems rather gluttonous. Poison maybe? Would even nightshade be enough to fell one such as this?
The Element of Magic is held by one Twilight Sparkle, currently the chief librarian of Ponyville’s public library. She is a cunning and crafty opponent, and almost made the top of this list.
In terms of magical power she sits near the pinnacle of that which can be obtained by a mortal unicorn. Only a handful, by delving into the primordial chaos or through direct gift from a god, have ever exceeded her raw power. In ability too she ranks highly, no doubt thanks to the tutelage of my hated sister.
The sole loose thread that may be her unravelling is her obsession with order and by-the-book thinking. By discounting out of hand things as ‘old mares tales’, and by following to the letter guidebooks and systems, she both robs herself of potential new avenues of understanding and makes her actions predictable. One with another copy of whatever strategy book she’s using should be able to predict her moves well in advance, and take steps to counter them.
Anonymous asked: SHAMONE! Hoo HEE HEE. So tell me something dark chocolate, what happened to the whole eternal night thing? *spins* YEAHH AHH WOO.
Delayed but not forgotten. WE SHALL GUT CELESTIA AND STRING HER STILL-WARM ENTRAILS FROM THE SPIRES OF THE ROYAL PALACE!!!!!!!! Eventually…
mythic-swirl asked: =) Thats actually a good idea.... You should experiance both sides of the equation... so, as your ponysona of Nightsky Melody.... my challange to you is to go out and attempt to make friends through respect and love instead of fear, see for yourself how powerful love can be over fear =)
Challenge accepted.
We have arranged to rent a small furnished apartment in Ponyville under Our alias. We will live there, and show respect and love to Our neighbours. Soon, you will see that fear is a vastly superior to love in every way.
We have even created a blog here for our alias (nightsky-melody.tumblr.com).
