*hugs in return*.... now... stop feeling sad about this.... *smiles weakly* Never going to enjoy our date if both of us are broken up about something.
Yes.
Though We might have to postpone the date, at least until the Master has been dealt with.
I remember a creature to whom your abilities look like a kitten's tongue.
Will she never leave my family alone?
-Galaxiour
…Who? If this enemy is as powerful as you suggest, with you injured We must get Luna to safety.
.... No. *stomps Hoof, looks up, still hurting though* Don't you dare think that way.... whatever you did was unintentional, you don't get to blame yourself for this! *fighting pain* I know you have done things you regret, I will not let you add this to the list, you hear me... I will be fine, Luna has recovered and is with her sister again, she is fine now. So you don't get to blame yourself for this! Yes you caused pain, but it was not intentional for the me or for her... I for one know this and you will get no blame from me.... *tears form, looks down*.... I don't care if you would rather have her then me... I can accept that... but it doesn't mean I am going to give up... it doesn't mean I am going to let it stay that way... if I can, I am going to work as hard as I have to and more to show you that no one could care for you as much as I do, that you don't need Luna anymore... You don't even have to accept that I am going to do this, but I will be damned to the Moon if I will let yourself feel bad for inadvertedly hurting me, you got that?
*Nightmare Moon stands stock still, shocked by Arcel’s rant. Then, wordlessly, she moves over to him and hugs him.*
I've been interested since i heard about you: you won. A white dwarf star (former known as the Sun) became a Celestia's tomb. All your opponents are dead, and nopony knows where their graves are. Equestrian ecosystem is destroyed (you were too busy planning revenge to think about that. Trust me, I know how anger works). Eternal eclipse will be pretty same, and unicorn magic aren't going to help. They won't be able to grow enough plants to feed themselves.
Ponies have become extinct species. Actualy, most of species are extinct now. There are nobody to rule, nobody to hate. Only you and Luna... alone.
Do you really wish this kind of fate to her?
We don’t think things will ever get that bad… but if there really is no other way, We would rather rule a world of corpses at Luna’s side, than live separate from her forever.
Pattern damage? But that's impossible, the only being powerful enough to do that is....Oh my stars! I remember...
-Galaxiour
Yes, pattern damage is the only sort of injury that an alicorn can’t repair with magic. We have been studying ways to kill alicorns… for no reason at all…
What do you remember?
... *looks back down * I... I know... and I shouldn't have expected anything else... don't worry... I will be fine with enough time... thats all it will take... a bit of time... *sighs again though* What chance do I have against a goddess anyway though.....
Sometimes it seems to Us that We can’t help but hurt the ponies We love… First Luna, then you…
I simply want you to know you are a better pony outside of Luna, because outside of Luna you have a life.
I think the hug opened up my stitches again.
-Galaxiour
You should be more careful. If that wound couldn’t be healed by alicorn magic, that means you have pattern damage. It could take weeks, or even months to heal properly unless you take it easy.
*shuffles a bit*... I... I kind of do have a plan yes... if you are up for it that is... I have to make one quick arrangement before the start, but then I will be good to go... *looks up at her, fighting back the twisting pain in chest, smiles a bit*
…*sigh* We can tell Our attempt to distract you has failed. We don’t want to hurt you… but We can’t change how We feel about Luna, either… We don’t know what to do!
No no, a cough drop will suffice.
…
*Kicks (gently) anyway.*
*hugs*
My Child, I know it must be hard, but you must think of Luna as more like your mother, Her mind was your womb. And your separation was your birth. You were taken out of Luna as sudden as a foal is forced into the world. But do not hold a grudge for your doctor, for your life has the most amazing potential.
-Galaxiour
…
We hate them.
We hate Twilight Sparkle. We hate Applejack. We hate Pinkie Pie. We hate Rarity. We hate Fluttershy. We hate Rainbow Dash.
And most of all, We hate Celestia.
There is no statement We could make, no monument that could be constructed, to fully express the magnitude of Our hate.
Hate! HATE!!!!!!!!
