*smiles, stands, walks to in front of her and kisses her* Trust me... your not... *smiling* If I was felt like I was being forced, do you really think I would be so calm... you have seen me when I panic. *chuckles*
*She seems a lot more relaxed.*
No, We suppose you would be stuttering and trying to hide if We were forcing Ourself on you. Thank you for reassuring Us.
*blinks, then smiles* Yes, of course I am, why? *slightly worried*
*Sigh.* We just don’t want to think We’re forcing you to be with Us, that’s all.

OOC: Nail Polish Remover? XD
((OOC: Would nail polish remover really work on clothing? :P))
((ooc: Works great on cotton, but it can sometimes take some of the dye out of the cloth too. It dissolves synthetics.))
Oh, of course, and I can understand why you would feel that way... but I tend to travel at times... mainly for research mind you, but whenever I have to go in person... its nice having a familier place to rest. *nods* Hence me living out of a Caravan... until now at least. *smiles at her again*... I wouldn't want to intrude on your private chambers... but adjoining works.
*Nightmare Moon shifts slightly. She seems to be toying with telling Arcel something.*
Arcel… Are you happy with Us?
OOC: anypony know how to get clear sparkly nail polish out of clothes?
((ooc: Depends. Nail polish remover or paint thinner will work if it’s cotton, but that can sometimes take the colour out of the clothes too. For synthetics, try hand washing it in soda water. DONT use nail polish remover or paint thinner on synthetics, it’ll dissolve the cloth.))
*chuckles* But of course... *smiles a bit* If anything... this should be the center of the new Royal guarden I think... the trees flowers life cycle is actually based on the cycle of the moon... interesting fact I thought... *takes a bite of a pear peice, smiling still*... living with you... is still a maybe... I have grown quite attached to my Caravan... but I suppose I could at least bring it closer to the castle... *chuckles* Plus, you never know... I might have to travel again in the future... always good to have a home away from home handy hmm?
*She takes a bite of an apple and chews it thoughtfully.*
We suppose a mobile home can come in handy, but We always preferred sleeping behind nice, thick, defensible walls. Preferably with a trusted guard standing watch.
*smiles a bit* I think the castle is wonderful... could still use a little work to make it feel a bit.... well... less terrofying... but its still wonderful... I am guessing my Caravan is going to start seeing less and less use now... correct? *he asked, having layed beside her, using magic to make each of them a plate from what he brought*... and as for the forest... most of it could use some work... but... *looks at the tree*... its not all bad.
You could stay in the castle, if you like. Either with Us, or We could fix up one of the adjoining rooms as yours. The original castle was designed to house dozens of nobles and hundreds of servants, and We have expanded somewhat on the original design, but We live there all alone. The anons are some company, but they tend to keep to themselves in their tunnels.
As for the forest, by fix it We meant reestablish proper weather and ecosystem control over the area. This used to be the most thriving city in all of Equestria. We fear the damage done by Our battle with the sun-hag is responsible for its current state.
*smiles, the basket opens, filled with various things, fresh fruit included* I have a veriaty. *the blanket hooked to the bottem of the basket unfolds and lays out by the tree for them* It might not be up to... umm... royal standards... but I had to work what I could make or purchase... but I hope its to your liking Nightmare...
Yes, it looks quite delicious. *She sits down in the shadow of the tree.*
So tell Us, Arcel, what do you think of Our castle? We think it’s even better now than it was a thousand years ago. Though it is a little too quiet without the village that used to surround it. We don’t think We’ll be able to fix that until We can fix this forest…
*smiles, looks at the tree, eyes widen, a single red bloosum*..... such beauty.... *sighs*... in the midst of such chaos.... *hugs her back*.... there is something I am holding back from you.... and I hope you forgive me... but I shall wait till morning to share it... *being honest as always*... but for now... *horn glows, a basket appears from behind the tree and floats closer*... dinner... if your alright with that I mean...
*Finally tearing her eyes away from the tree.* Yes, all right. What did you bring?
((OOC: damn, retry then without the C&P I did...))
*he leads her to a hidden field deep within the Everfree forest, it has medium length grass all around it, and the wild life of the forest seems to just stop dead in a radius of about 15 yards, but the sight most impressive is in the center, a huge tree, its bark an unnatural tinge of blue, and its leaves black as the night sky, Arcel smiled* Here we are.... and right in time too... *looks up, reaching the midnight hour, suddenly, buds all over the tree begin to open, pure white on the sea of blackness of the tree, they bloom fully on it, most small, a few large ones though, and the entire tree glimmers under the light of the full moon*... La Bella Luna... here for a thousand years.... *looks up at Nightmare* What do you think?
It… it’s beautiful…
*Her eyes well up with tears a little, and she hugs Arcel close, all while staring at the tree.*
Thank you for showing it to me…
