- >Thinking about life in general at times
- Don't sweat it too much, Nightshade. You'll do great
- >He looks like he wants to say something, but he goes against it
- >He does it every so often, and when he does, you bring a sun charm necklace to your face and stare at it
- >He gave it to you when you were born, said it's a gift
- >Never did elaborate
- *Sigh* yeah. You're right
- >You grin, feeling a swell of pride
- They'll never know what hit them
- >And the two of you both turn to look out into the horizon, past the desert
- >Where the land of crystal ponies awaits
