Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own...
Luna woke up lying on her bed. She pricked her ears as a song drifted through the open window.
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for someone
I really could care for...
Getting out of bed, she pushed open the window and looked out. The night sky was speckled with the result of her hard work and the starlight turned the land below into a sea of colors.
And then suddenly appeared before me,
the only one my arms could ever hold
I heard somebody whisper 'please adore me'
Luna chuckled and shook her head. "Really, that seems rather convenient, given the circumstances, don't you think?"
"Maybe," the smooth voice answered, "but there's no reason why it can't apply to you."
"I'm not exactly the romantic type," Luna said dryly, wondering who had been singing.
"Hm...guess we all have our little mysterious strangers, eh? Have a good evening, Blue Moon."
Luna felt the presence depart and felt an odd sense of loneliness settle over her.
-
Maybe you'll think of me when you are all alone.
Maybe the one who is waiting for you.
Will prove untrue, then what will you do?
Luna woke up a few days later, listening to an old familiar tune drift through her window. Getting out of bed, she gazed up at the moon, then down at the dapple-colored ground. She rested her hooves on the windowsill and closed her eyes, humming along to the song.
Maybe you'll sit and sigh, wishing that I were near.
Then maybe you'll ask me to come back again.
And maybe I'll say "Maybe".
Luna chuckled. "Maybe I did, maybe I didn't," she murmured quietly.
Maybe you'll think of me when you are all alone.
Maybe the one who is waiting for you.
Will prove untrue, then what will I do?
"Maybe stop singing the Blues?" Luna said with a smile.
"Goodness, that's like asking your sister to stop lifting the beautiful sun," the voice replied in mock horror. Luna chuckled.
"Fair enough, my Mysterious Stranger."
"A name, hm? Interesting choice, my Blue Moon," the voice replied.
"Your Blue Moon?" Luna said with a smirk. "An interesting name, certainly, but then again, I don't know who or what you are, so it's only fitting you give me a rare name as well."
"Ding, she gets it," the voice said with a laugh. "Certainly. We're a lot alike, you and I...hm, interesting phrase, that."
Luna nodded and gazed at her moon with a smile on her lips.
-
It's all over, but the crying
And nobody's crying but me
Friends all over know I'm trying
To forget about how much I care for you
Luna woke up on the surface of the moon after her brawl with Celestia. Blinking, she looked around, rubbing her head with a wince. Nothing caught her eye on the first pass, then she looked down.
A lone set of hoofprints trailed off into the distance. Luna could've sworn the music was coming from the indents in the dust and she followed the mournful tune.
It's all over, but the dreaming
Poor little dreams that keep trying to come true
It's all over, but the crying
And I can't get over crying over you
Luna frowned as she crested a rise from a crater. Looking around again, she saw a single figure sitting on the edge. She looked at it curiously, torn between wanting to figure out who or what it was that had been singing to her and Celestia, yet at the same time terrified of knowing.
The song was shorter and the figure repeated the lines, strumming it's instrument as the last notes faded away.
"For what it's worth, I'm sorry," he said. It clicked in Luna's head and she walked over to him.
"You have nothing to apologize for," Luna said firmly. "That wasn't you who did those things and you know it."
"Maybe. But that doesn't change the fact my hooves have spilled blood."
"So have mine," Luna retorted. "What matters is that it wasn't you."
She looked into those familiar green eyes and gently touched his cheek.
"What, you think I'm angry about you and my sister? I was young and under a lot of stress."
"I didn't mean to drive a wedge between you two and allow the Nightmare to take control of you," he replied.
Luna smiled slightly. "Hm, not really. I was the one who let it in and fed it, making it stronger. Were I in my right mind at the time, I could have cast it out any time."
She nuzzled him gently. "Please, no more crying. I've already got my sister crying over me. I don't need both of you shedding tears over my stupid mistakes, alright?"
He let out a breath and nodded. Luna smiled. "That's all I needed to hear."
