*Cough* But it looked so tasty, and to be fair it was.
Did you even watch the video? “If you don’t know just what it is, don’t put it in your mouth!”
Eh, dragons are crazy sometimes. Know what all it's made of?
It’s an element Our researchers discovered. They named it Nightmarium.
((ooc: Let’s pretend this post came before the previous Luna post…))
Wacky Hijinks
*Nightmare Moon bursts into the 1st Equestrian National bank, wearing a black domino mask and a single sock and carrying a bag marked with a ‘$’.*
All right! This is a hold-up! Fill the bag, and nopony will get hurt.
*She fires her sock-death-ray a few times into the air to make her point.*
*the pink avenger bursts on screen, bucking the sock death ray out of Nightmare’s telekinetic field*
NEVER!
*Gasp* It’s Our arch-nemesis, the Pink Avenger! Curses! Our plot is foiled!
*She gathers up her death ray sock and prepares to flee.*
What does 'Nightmarium' do?
It’s an anti-magic agent. But unlike magnetite, which simply pushes magic away, nightmarium actually cancels out magic it comes in contact with. Since almost all intelligent creatures in Equestria need magic to function, it can be quite a health hazard if handled improperly. It’s safe to touch for brief periods, but prolonged contact can be deadly.
We admit it might not have been the safest idea to keep a refined lump of it in Our throne room, but we didn’t expect somepony would just waltz in and take a bite out of a strange lump of metal.
*Sigh* Fine.
If you want to get to the point where you can yell at Us sooner, could you maybe help Us save Roboshi? The foal picked up a chunk of hazardous materials, then, without listening to Our warnings, took a bite out of it.
I I guess you can. *Coughs up some blood* Oh! seems I've saved you the trouble. *Collapses*
Roboshi! *Her horn glows as she pumps magic into Roboshi, replacing some that was removed by the nightmarium.* Come on, you can’t die on Us now…
Ahem.
Luna, while We are sure you are angry at Us about something, We are neck deep in superheroes and related wacky shenanigans, and it looks like Roboshi is dying. So please, can it wait?
May we please borrow Ms. Avenger Your Holiness? The researchers wish to determine if sufficient amounts of Nightmareium can in fact render her bizarre powers controllable. Since her abilities are similar to Pinkie Pies we may be able to contain the most dangerous of the Elements. In addition how many dogs do you need? We can order the subject to break a few mongrels legs to prevent escape.
AnonymousShe has already demonstrated to Us that nightmarium can interfere with Pink energy, but if you wish to test the specifics she would most likely be happy to assist.
As for the diamond dogs, two or three breeding pairs should suffice. And they should be taken with no irreparable injury, but a broken bone or two should be acceptable.

Urgh! I think I digested some of it.
Tyranus is looking for a way to extract nightmarium from the environment. If he is successful, We may be able to cure you. In the meantime, We can provide you with magic infusions that should stave off the poison’s effects.
In the meantime, would you consent to donating some blood? Our researchers are eager to study the properties of dragon’s blood.
