In My Head, It's Like Hell

Characters: Luna and whoever
Content: Luna attends to the latest wave of nightmares. Not the kind with teeth and claws.
Location: The dreamscape / Traverse Town
Time: Night, naturally
Warnings: Depends on the dreams, I imagine

Everyone has different reactions to the recurring dreams. Some don't sleep. Some stay close to their friends for comfort. This time, with these nightmares, Luna almost completely disappears from waking society.

They've been escalating over time, she's noticed; what began as common enough dreams of chasing something out of reach (even if the keyholes were entirely unnatural) have now become depictions of outright conflict. Even though not everyone around here keeps the same sleeping schedule, or even stays in the same world, there is always enough work to go around. She's already spent the better part of several days in her room, leaving her bed only to find food from time to time. Traveling in others' dreams is work, not rest, and if she doesn't get sleep of her own, even she will eventually wind down.

...this is, of course, not to say that she's actually been getting the appropriate amount of rest. She isn't safe from nightmares herself, and she's gone through plenty of conflicts in her long life.

I have done some small-scale dabbling here and there. Mostly with daydreams.

[Luna is pretty much correct, although add to that a significant amount of simply not being able to bring herself to take on a role not physically necessary to the survival of Equestria, when it would serve as another painful reminder of her sister's absence.]

I don't pretend for a second I will have a tenth of your skill, but if you continue at this pace, you won't have a tenth of your skill.

[Celestia visibly relaxes, most obvious in her wings the way the feathers shift and how they seem to decrease in size significantly.]

If he consents, then you both know I will be as gentle and careful as if he were my own foal.

[No, by all means, please hover! It will reassure Luna and Ventus both to have her keep a close watch.]

[Thus, Celestia nods.]
Very well. When we see him next, we shall ask him.
