The royal and immortal princesses who rule Equestria and keep the sun and moon in their orbits are rewarded for their responsibilities with luxury and grandeur. The princesses have a kingdom of rooms each, filling one of the palace's highest towers. It's hard to tell where the rooms belonging to Celestia are divided from the rooms belonging to Luna. This must be Luna's bedroom, because the domed ceiling has a crescent moon and stars painted on it. Other than that, there's a lot of white marble and sandstone, red velvet, bookshelves, plush couches, a bed that could hold both princesses or six normal ponies, gold leaf, statuary, and wealth everywhere you look. There's no privacy, except in the sense that two ponies are living in enough room for twenty. Doors stand open everywhere, even the ones leading out onto the balcony by the bed.
[ Obvious Exits: <B>ack to the Palace, <C>elestia's Chambers ]
Solar_Eclipse has arrived.
Dynamite_Rave has arrived.
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "INVASION!!"
<OOC> You say, "So you're just going to wander into Luna's quarters?"
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "BOOM GOES THE DYANMITE."
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "Well, probably not. But it's where you were. Did you want to hop to the main room?"
<OOC> You say, "Granted that Eclipse is allowed."
<OOC> You say, "Are they scening down there?"
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "Could be hanging out in the Throne room or something."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Nope."
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "Nah it was all idlish."
Pumpkin_Pie has arrived.
<OOC> You say, "THE PIE."
<OOC> You say, "No, I'd rather do it here! The Palace is public enough people will wander in, and I am very much not at my full game tonight."
<OOC> You say, "BUCK HOOFINGTON is probably all the stallion I can handle."
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "Oh alrighty. Uhmm, ok, want me to set?"
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie says, "I'm all the stallion anybody can handle!"
<OOC> You say, "Certainly you're the very limit of what any pony can lift."
<OOC> You say, "Go right ahead, Solar!"
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse mms and is gonna assume its a sleep over...
<OOC> You say, "You invited 'em. It's up to you!"
It's sleep over night! Eclipse hasn't had a sleep over before, so he's SUPER stoked! He's drug the pair around for the majority of the night, wether they liked it or not. They got to see his rather posh looking room, fit for a prince, and then proceded to introduce them to the guards on duty which was probably mostly to keep them out of trouble. There was a big dinner, and some running around, now without waiting for a response from them, he says "Let's go meet my Aunt!" and he heads for Luna's chamber. He doesn't tell them who he's talking about, just goes up to the door, nods to the guards and taptaptaptaps on the door.
Cool as a cucumber is Dynamite Rave who is wearing a pair of sweet looking stunner shades over his face. A pair of headphones hangs about his neck and a large saddlebag about his shoulders, carrying Celestia knows what in it. Despite all the fancy and posh environment, he seems to be pretty much at ease, then again he hasn't taken those shades off once so his tude' is anyone's guess. As they stop at Luna's door, he tilts his head upwards at it, then back to Eclipse and Pie. "Yo, we 'bout ta' peep in on Nightmare Moon? Brah', that's ridic'. She ain't gonna eat us is she? They say she does that on Nightmare Night and like, ah' ain't got any candy on me."
Pumpkin_Pie is the complete oppisite. He's wide eyed at EVERYTHING he sees. "I reckon Seed n' Patch ain't never been to a castle before! This here's all fancy and...the hallways are so huge, and everything is so neat n' tidy! I mean I was here on a fieldtrip once, but I ain't never got to explore the castle like this! This place is really cool, Eclipse!" The boy comments, constantly adjusting his bandana in hopes that he looks 'fancy' enough to be wandering around with Rave and Eclipse. "W, wait? Nightmare who? You mean Princess Luna? Naw, she's really cool!" He explains brightly, seeming somewhat pleased to find something that Rave is frightened of, but he is not.
The guards, of course, are not going to tell the royal prince that he can't enter his own great great grandmother's rooms, especially since Luna's grasp of privacy is questionable, especially when it applies to herself and Celestia. They just open the door right up, letting out a cold blue light that stains everything, and a blasting wind of magic that only the Pumpkin colt is able to feel, hot and physical and invigorating, like being nuzzled by a really hyperactive Apple filly. The light fills the room, most of it coming from Luna's horn, and it turns everything blue like her. The Princess herself is sitting on her rug in the middle of the room, all four legs tucked underneath her and wings folded tight. The room is full of ghostly blue grids and symbols orbitting the princess slowly, and her blank, blazing white eyes focus on a pulsing white orb hovering in front of her. When she speaks, the wind that springs up can be felt by everyone, and her voice echoes around the hallway and surrounding rooms, "THIS IS AN UNEXPECTED PLEASURE. WELCOME, COLTS. TAKE THY EASE, BUT BE CAREFUL WHAT THOU TOUCH."
"Hi Aunt Luna!" He makes his way in, thanking the guards by name, despite them all seeming to be identical. How does he -do- that? He gives a big, admiring grin up to his extra great grandmother, "We're having a sleep over. I have friends now. Isn't that cool. This is Dynamite Rave and Pumpkin Pie. I thought we would come by and say hello." He looks around a bit, nose wrinkling a bit, then he makes a light sound, "What are you doing, anyways?"
".. Dude, your Aunt is so freaking hot." Dynamite says in a soft whisper as he nudges Eclipse with his hip, then drops down into a proper bow with his eyes peeking over the top of his shades as they slide down along the bridge of his muzzle. "Uh.. sup'? I'm Dynamite Rave, but everyone calls me Dyna. Or D-Rizzle. Or Flash Bang, but that's an inside joke with my bro-sefs." He glances over to Pie for a moment before looking back to Luna. Insta-Crush. Bad Girl. Check. Super powerful? Check. Smoking hot? Double Check.
<OOC> You say, "Four times his height and ten times his weight? Check."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Dyna likes to climb trees.
"
<OOC> You say, "Well, she does have those slender and feminine alicorn proportions. She's just built to a giant scale."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Didn't seem like it in the cartoon.
"
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111022175142/mlp/images/9/9b/Princess_Luna_S02E04.png TINY."
<OOC> You say, "Yep. She's got that graceful figure. Then you see her standing next to Twilight and looming over her. She's just not as tall as Celestia. She's still a head taller than ANY regular pony."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Long legged and hot? Check. XD"
Pumpkin_Pie grins ever so quietly, tosses his little fabio like mane back and flashes Luna his best and most debonior smile. "Princess Luna! We meet again. You look as love as you did when I first laid eyes across your form. You are magnificent!" The boy quips, and dips himself down on one knee. "Thanks for not shuttin' down my farm when Apple bloom went crazy! ...She likes me now!" He mumbles, blushing.
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse says, "Why's everybody hitting on my aunt!"
<OOC> You say, "It's the immortality. Look at the picture. She LOOKS younger than Twilight, despite being older than dirt."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Because she's freaking hot bro. XD"
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "She's the Demi Moore of ponies. Haha."
Luna announces in a mild tone but bone-vibrating volume, "OUR HEARING IS REMARKABLE, THUNDER SHOUT. COLTS WILL BE COLTS, HOWEVER, AND IT SEEMS A THOUSAND YEARS CANNOT CHANGE THEM. AGAIN, THOU ARE WELCOME, BUT BE CAREFUL. WHAT THOU SEE, BELOVED PRINCE, IS A MOST PUISSANT MAGIC. WOULD THAT WE MIGHT TEACH IT TO THEE, BUT IT IS OF A KIND ONLY ALICORNS MAY PERFORM, FOR IT BLENDS THE SEPARATE MAGICS OF UNICORN AND EARTH PONY. IT IS... DIFFICULT, EVEN FOR US, AND IF WE CEASE, THIS BEAUTIFUL NIGHT SPIRIT HERE, SHE SHALL DIE. SO ALAS, WHILE WE CELEBRATE THY OBTAINING SUCH STOUT COMRADES, WE MUST DO SO WITHOUT MOVING. PERHAPS THE SERVANTS MIGHT BRING TEA AND PASTRIES?" True to her word, only her lips and her blasting voice move. The rest of her is motionless, and the blue designs continue to spin patiently around her. After the initial rush of magic rolling over Pumpkin, he's merely left with the warm sensation of being held all over, even though there's no actual pressure.
Eclipse blinks a time or two, giving his friends a weird look. He looks to Dynamite a moment, saying, "She's got really good hearing," a moment before Luna announces it as well. "See?" He blinks, "Also, you both are weird," he tells them with a deep exhale. He then looks over to Luna and gives a few nods. "Oh, well, maybe I'll be an Alicorn when I grow up," he says, giving a big grin. "But, ok, we won't ask you to move." He fidgets, "I suppose, though I'm told I still need to avoid sweets. Just in case."
Working a hoof against his ear, Dynamite leans back some at the loud words pouring from the Princess. ".. Then she can totally hear the pounding of my heart. Cooties would be so worth it." He says with a grin, then pops in a piece of mint flavored gum to begin chewing upon it. Gotta have fresh breath if you're gonna mack on the ladies! With a shake of his mane about his neck, he pushes his shades up once more upon his head. "So, like.. making it all dark and stuff, is it super hard to do?"
Pumpkin_Pie shivers, although not by any means cold. That warm, magical rush of sensation seems to take him by storm, and he sways contently, as if listening to his favorite song in the best of conditions. "...Mmmmmm...I...what was I saying?" He asks, before losing himself to the feeling of being held- being warm, being nuzzled and caressed and if he had to put it into a single word: Being loved. "Can...Eclipse, can we hang around here? I like it in here. I like a lot. "He murmurs, and dips down onto his knees, folding them underneath himself, and looking up at the shimmering spirit that holds Luna's gaze. "Reckon she be ok?"
Luna assures Pumpkin Pie, "AS LONG AS THE SPELL IS NOT INTERRUPTED, SHE WILL BE MORE THAN OKAY, SHE SHALL BIRTH A NEW WILL OF THE WISP ERE THE NIGHT ENDS. IF WE ARE IN ANY WAY DISTURBED, PROMISE US THAT THOU SHALL INHALE THIS INNOCENT SPIRIT, YOUNGEST OF THE PUMPKIN BROTHERS, FOR ONLY SHARING AN EARTH PONY'S BREATH OF LIFE CAN SHE SAFELY RIDE OUT THE INTERRUPTION. AS TO THY COMRADE'S QUESTION, IT IS THE NATURE OF OUR CUTIE MARK, SO EASY AND NATURAL THAT THE MOON MIGHT BE ANOTHER WING TO LIFT. WITHOUT THAT MARK, THE MAGIC IS DANGEROUS AND DIFFICULT BEYOND MEASURE. PERHAPS WE SHALL TELL THEE SOMETIME THE STORY OF THE NIGHT OF TWO MOONS, AND HOW DISASTROUSLY THAT SPELL CAN FAIL." Every time the glowing wisp in front of Luna's eyes pulses, Pumpkin can feel it, like a second heartbeat. For Solar Eclipse, little blue symbols appear around his horn, and then his head, and then his neck, letting him feel more vividly his own magical power as they link him to the nearby spell so that he does not smash it by accident. Dynamite... well, an amazonian goddess is lying on a rug in front of him, shadowed and highlighted artistically by her own magic. Hopefully that'll do.
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Scha-wing."
<OOC> Luna cracks up.
Say what you will, but Eclipse's sleep overs are awesome. And weird. Mostly the latter, but whichever. He looks to Pie a moment, then back to his Aunt and the spirity thing. He squints on it, as if trying to read it like he does the guards before he plops down. "Ok, we can stay here for a bit. Might be safer if something happens then Pie can do his breathing thing. He also gives Rave an odd look, probably find it weird he keeps hitting on his aunt.
By now, Dynamite has flashed a pic of Luna using one of his toys with a camera built into it, and is totally uploading it to his 'Cloud'. (Ha!) "Nice, dudes back at school are gonna be wicked jealous. Eclipse, you're totally legit, you know that?" He says as he flops back onto his rump and starts to play his game, whatever it is, mashing buttons with his hooves with the tip of his tongue sticking out his teeth. "I bet you got girls jumping off cliffs for yah', huh bro'? I mean, Pie here -thinks- he's a mack but you're probably the real deal."
Pumpkin_Pie's eyes drift shut. "MMhmmm." he explains, plesantly. Was he even listening? Inhale a spirit? No, Pie, NO! But the boy sits there, swaying happily, feeling toooooo good. It's all quite good to him. That second heart beat, the warmth- the boy is really getting into this. Like the sun itself very gently wrapping him in a blanket of the warmest warming warmth. That is warm. And the earth smells so good, and the air tastes so crisp and fresh, regardless of the fact that they are, infact, in Luna's room and her dirty laundry is piled up in a fragrent corner in one of the rooms dark reccesses.
<OOC> You say, "To be fair, it's all metal."
Luna muses - loudly - "PERHAPS STAYING HERE MIGHT NOT BE WISE AFTER ALL. WE FORGET THAT OUR STRENGTH AS AN EARTH PONY IS AS GREAT AS OUR STRENGTH AS A UNICORN OR PEGASUS. WE ARE OVERWHELMING THE PUMPKIN COLT, DROWNING HIM IN OURSELF. FLEE IF THOU MUST, OR WITH CARE PLACE HIM UNDER OUR WING. THERE, IRONICALLY, AGAINST OUR FLESH WE CAN SHIELD HIM FROM OUR SPIRIT." Very, very slowly one of her wings unfolds from her side, arching up to form a foal-sized cave by her side.
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie says, "score!"
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse smack!
<OOC> You say, "There's always the 'flee' option!"
"Oh," Eclipse says. He looks to Rave. "What? I'm glad I'm... legit? That's a good thing right?" He chuckles, "No one's jumping off cliffs, I don't think." His friends are totally weird. He looks to Pie a moment, then to Luna, then over to Rave, "Should we go or...the other thing?"
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie says, "What happens if we choose 'item' ?"
<OOC> You say, "The spell breaks, and Luna gets royally pissed at everyone except possibly Pumpkin Pie if he inhales the wisp fast enough."
"Why you asking me for? I ain't th' leader, this is your crib bro." Dynamite says distractedly as he continues to play his game, sliding the headphones over his ears to drown out the shouting of Luna's voice. Wub. Wub. Wub. Wub. DOOMSDAY. Wuuuuub.
<OOC> You say, "Or you could just stand there, and Pumpkin Pie might get his cutie mark prematurely."
<OOC> You say, "...if thou know what we mean."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave bites his tongue.
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie snerks.
Pie seems like he's totally lost in another world. Overwhelmed by Luna is right. He's got the spiritual flow and seems to be lost to the tenderness of all the sensations dancing around him. "I like apples. "He mumbles quietly. Or maybe all of Luna's shouting has somehow giving him a serious concusion. Either way, boy is feeling goooooood.
At this point, Luna's life is not merely washing over Pumpkin Pie, it's filling him, mingling and merging with him... absorbing him. He can feel a third heartbeat now, Luna's. It beats slowly, powerfully, like a hammer on an anvil. Her body is sinuously at ease, even in this curled up position, because every muscle and sinew is sleekly fit and strong, and her immortality is a vitality like young love, of lightness and energy and perfect health. It is all around him, as vivid as the feel of his own body. He can even feel how her power rushes out of her naturally with her breath, creating the penetrating, echoing Royal Canterlot Voice as she chides, "PRINCE ECLIPSE, THY COMPANION IS A FOAL, ACTING LIKE A FOAL. WE EXPECT BETTER OF THEE, THE RESPONSIBILITY OF A STALLION. TAKE THY FRIEND NOW, AND GET HIM AWAY FROM OUR ROOM, AWAY FROM THIS TOWER. NOW! HE IS IN DANGER. BE A PRINCE AND PROTECT HIM!"
Well that snaps him to action. Eclipse wasn't sure how serious this was, but it certainly seems bad. Of course, everything seems dire in the royal Canterloanian. He gets to pushing at Pie, "Out. Out you go." His horn even lights up a little, lifting a bit of the weight magically so he's easier to push, sort of like a balloon that's a little low on air.
PUB >> Luna can't believe the colts talked her into a scene, as tired as she is. Anybody mind if she kills Pumpkin Pie by accident?
PUB >> Derpy so full of pumpkin pie. Urgle
~Shout to all my lost boys. Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys! We rowdy! BANGARANG!~ Wub Wub Wub. So much is going on and Dynamite Rave seems to be in a trance himself as he plays his little game in front of him. The lights of the display is reflected in the darkness of his shades. Pie is about to prematurely uh..get a cutie mark? Eclipse is leaping into action. Luna is shouting. Dyna? He's wracking up major points in Fighting is Magic. Pika Pika.
PUB >> Flutelphaba IS Defying Gravity says, "I think Apple Bloom might object."
PUB >> Dusk says 'oops'? :-)
Pumpkin_Pie's legs flail in the air, and he gives a painful little whine- like a child being pulled from his favorite toy shop. "Nooooo, I wanna staaaaay. "He squeaks, trying to waggle his feet towards Luna, but can't get any traction! "Awwwww!"
PUB >> Apple_Bloom would object on the grounds she'd have to go somewhere else for carved pumpkins.
PUB >> Luna says, "And to get her pumpkin carved? Nudge-nudge-wink-wink-say-no-more?"
PUB >> Derpy wink wink, always get backwards.
PUB >> Sky_Blue says, "HAI LUNA <3"
PUB >> Pumpkin_Pie says, "I don't even know what that means- But BUCK HOOFINGTON loves the idea of carving Apple's pumpkin!"
PUB >> Cocoa says, "oh my"
PUB >> Apple_Bloom says, "Well, we don't grow a lot of pumpkins on our farm. "
PUB >> Sky_Blue says, "Giggity."
This casual removal is not fast enough. Not nearly fast enough. To Pumpkin Pie, Luna is everywhere. Now he can feel more than her powerful body. He can feel the wisp in front of her, a living thing like himself, and like himself bulging with Luna's vitality. He can feel the electrical power of her unicorn magic winding through her to her horn, twisted and pushed out to link her to the elaborate grid of magic with which she is forcing her vital earth pony energy into the room and reflecting it into the wisp. He can feel the wings, the strength of those extra wings whose slightest movement lifts her body as if it were made of air. He can feel Solar Eclipse as an erratically sparking flame within the web of her magic, and Rave, a dull ember whose feeble warmth still channels elegantly through the toys he's obsessed with, bending the to his will. Then it all goes away very abruptly, locking him in the cold, aching heaviness of his own body. The blue light stops. The orbiting symbols disappear. The throbbing white globe in front of Luna's eyes spasms once, and then pops like a soap bubble. Slowly, liquidly, Luna rises up onto all four feet. Her eyes fade from blank white to regular blue-green, except with sharply cat-slitted pupils. These are focused on Solar with an expression as hard as the softly flat tone in which she informs him, "We have saved thy comrade. Heed us, Eclipse. When we tell thee a pony is in danger, thou leap to action with all thy speed and force. Now, get out of our sight, and pray tomorrow we are less ashamed of thee." Oh, hey, and one other thing. When the light stops? The implosion of magic rips the magic out of Dynamite's toys as well. They all go dark at once, and start to smell like burnt toast.
"Aw #$#@!" Dyanmite hisses out as he jerks his shades upwards and gives his game a few smacks with his hoof. Chucking it off to the side, he lets out a heavy breath. With a blink of his eyes, he glances about for a moment, then says, "Uh, what's going on guys? We outtie now? I gotta hit the can." He says as he hops to his hooves and starts out of the room with a loud yawn. "Yo, I could use a power drink or something too. Freaking getting all brain fried and I think we got like fifteen more miles of castle to explore."
<OOC> Luna heeheehees. Dynamite is SO self-absorbed.
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Yah, I gotta bed also. :/"
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Dynamite is kinda like a mix of Bender and myself as a California born pony that's now stuck in hickville. XD He's full of ADD, gets bored easy."
Awww. Eclipse did badly. He didn't mean for things to go down like this. He never thought he'd endanger someone on his first Sleep-Over, and worse still, he's upset his Aunt. "Yes ma'am," he says, ears laying back as he stuffs Pie out the door, keeping him floating just a bit. "Ah, yeah, Rave...this way." And he shuffles out the door.
Pumpkin_Pie's ears fold down immediately and his eyes fill with an undescribable sadness. An ache he can only suffer alone now- an emptiness of infinate proportions, that only a Goddess might understand. For a brief, magical second of eternity- he was almost merged with a being unto that of the universe...and now it's gone. "....."He blinks, opening and closing his mouth trying to form some semi balance of words- something along the lines of a joke, perhaps, but nothing springs forth. He longs for that touch again, and knows he'll never find it. The rest of the sleepover may pale in comparison to this- unless they're having cake.
And, very finally, the door slams shut behind all three.
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse hits the cider hard

DIFFICULT, EVEN FOR US, AND IF WE CEASE, THIS BEAUTIFUL NIGHT SPIRIT HERE, SHE SHALL DIE. SO ALAS, WHILE WE CELEBRATE THY OBTAINING SUCH STOUT COMRADES, WE MUST DO SO WITHOUT MOVING. PERHAPS THE SERVANTS MIGHT BRING TEA AND PASTRIES?" True to her word, only her lips and her blasting voice move. The rest of her is motionless, and the blue designs continue to spin patiently around her. After the initial rush of magic rolling over Pumpkin, he's merely left with the warm sensation of being held all over, even though there's no actual pressure.
Eclipse blinks a time or two, giving his friends a weird look. He looks to Dynamite a moment, saying, "She's got really good hearing," a moment before Luna announces it as well. "See?" He blinks, "Also, you both are weird," he tells them with a deep exhale. He then looks over to Luna and gives a few nods. "Oh, well, maybe I'll be an Alicorn when I grow up," he says, giving a big grin. "But, ok, we won't ask you to move." He fidgets, "I suppose, though I'm told I still need to avoid sweets. Just in case."
Working a hoof against his ear, Dynamite leans back some at the loud words pouring from the Princess. ".. Then she can totally hear the pounding of my heart. Cooties would be so worth it." He says with a grin, then pops in a piece of mint flavored gum to begin chewing upon it. Gotta have fresh breath if you're gonna mack on the ladies! With a shake of his mane about his neck, he pushes his shades up once more upon his head. "So, like.. making it all dark and stuff, is it super hard to do?"
Pumpkin_Pie shivers, although not by any means cold. That warm, magical rush of sensation seems to take him by storm, and he sways contently, as if listening to his favorite song in the best of conditions. "...Mmmmmm...I...what was I saying?" He asks, before losing himself to the feeling of being held- being warm, being nuzzled and caressed and if he had to put it into a single word: Being loved. "Can...Eclipse, can we hang around here? I like it in here. I like a lot. "He murmurs, and dips down onto his knees, folding them underneath himself, and looking up at the shimmering spirit that holds Luna's gaze. "Reckon she be ok?"
Luna assures Pumpkin Pie, "AS LONG AS THE SPELL IS NOT INTERRUPTED, SHE WILL BE MORE THAN OKAY, SHE SHALL BIRTH A NEW WILL OF THE WISP ERE THE NIGHT ENDS. IF WE ARE IN ANY WAY DISTURBED, PROMISE US THAT THOU SHALL INHALE THIS INNOCENT SPIRIT, YOUNGEST OF THE PUMPKIN BROTHERS, FOR ONLY SHARING AN EARTH PONY'S BREATH OF LIFE CAN SHE SAFELY RIDE OUT THE INTERRUPTION. AS TO THY COMRADE'S QUESTION, IT IS THE NATURE OF OUR CUTIE MARK, SO EASY AND NATURAL THAT THE MOON MIGHT BE ANOTHER WING TO LIFT. WITHOUT THAT MARK, THE MAGIC IS DANGEROUS AND DIFFICULT BEYOND MEASURE. PERHAPS WE SHALL TELL THEE SOMETIME THE STORY OF THE NIGHT OF TWO MOONS, AND HOW DISASTROUSLY THAT SPELL CAN FAIL." Every time the glowing wisp in front of Luna's eyes pulses, Pumpkin can feel it, like a second heartbeat. For Solar Eclipse, little blue symbols appear around his horn, and then his head, and then his neck, letting him feel more vividly his own magical power as they link him to the nearby spell so that he does not smash it by accident. Dynamite... well, an amazonian goddess is lying on a rug in front of him, shadowed and highlighted artistically by her own magic. Hopefully that'll do.
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Scha-wing."
<OOC> Luna cracks up.
Say what you will, but Eclipse's sleep overs are awesome. And weird. Mostly the latter, but whichever. He looks to Pie a moment, then back to his Aunt and the spirity thing. He squints on it, as if trying to read it like he does the guards before he plops down. "Ok, we can stay here for a bit. Might be safer if something happens then Pie can do his breathing thing. He also gives Rave an odd look, probably find it weird he keeps hitting on his aunt.
By now, Dynamite has flashed a pic of Luna using one of his toys with a camera built into it, and is totally uploading it to his 'Cloud'. (Ha!) "Nice, dudes back at school are gonna be wicked jealous. Eclipse, you're totally legit, you know that?" He says as he flops back onto his rump and starts to play his game, whatever it is, mashing buttons with his hooves with the tip of his tongue sticking out his teeth. "I bet you got girls jumping off cliffs for yah', huh bro'? I mean, Pie here -thinks- he's a mack but you're probably the real deal."
Pumpkin_Pie's eyes drift shut. "MMhmmm." he explains, plesantly. Was he even listening? Inhale a spirit? No, Pie, NO! But the boy sits there, swaying happily, feeling toooooo good. It's all quite good to him. That second heart beat, the warmth- the boy is really getting into this. Like the sun itself very gently wrapping him in a blanket of the warmest warming warmth. That is warm. And the earth smells so good, and the air tastes so crisp and fresh, regardless of the fact that they are, infact, in Luna's room and her dirty laundry is piled up in a fragrent corner in one of the rooms dark reccesses.
<OOC> You say, "To be fair, it's all metal."
Luna muses - loudly - "PERHAPS STAYING HERE MIGHT NOT BE WISE AFTER ALL. WE FORGET THAT OUR STRENGTH AS AN EARTH PONY IS AS GREAT AS OUR STRENGTH AS A UNICORN OR PEGASUS. WE ARE OVERWHELMING THE PUMPKIN COLT, DROWNING HIM IN OURSELF. FLEE IF THOU MUST, OR WITH CARE PLACE HIM UNDER OUR WING. THERE, IRONICALLY, AGAINST OUR FLESH WE CAN SHIELD HIM FROM OUR SPIRIT." Very, very slowly one of her wings unfolds from her side, arching up to form a foal-sized cave by her side.
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie says, "score!"
<OOC> Solar_Eclipse smack!
<OOC> You say, "There's always the 'flee' option!"
"Oh," Eclipse says. He looks to Rave. "What? I'm glad I'm... legit? That's a good thing right?" He chuckles, "No one's jumping off cliffs, I don't think." His friends are totally weird. He looks to Pie a moment, then to Luna, then over to Rave, "Should we go or...the other thing?"
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie says, "What happens if we choose 'item' ?"
<OOC> You say, "The spell breaks, and Luna gets royally pissed at everyone except possibly Pumpkin Pie if he inhales the wisp fast enough."
"Why you asking me for? I ain't th' leader, this is your crib bro." Dynamite says distractedly as he continues to play his game, sliding the headphones over his ears to drown out the shouting of Luna's voice. Wub. Wub. Wub. Wub. DOOMSDAY. Wuuuuub.
<OOC> You say, "Or you could just stand there, and Pumpkin Pie might get his cutie mark prematurely."
<OOC> You say, "...if thou know what we mean."
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave bites his tongue.
<OOC> Pumpkin_Pie snerks.
Pie seems like he's totally lost in another world. Overwhelmed by Luna is right. He's got the spiritual flow and seems to be lost to the tenderness of all the sensations dancing around him. "I like apples. "He mumbles quietly. Or maybe all of Luna's shouting has somehow giving him a serious concusion. Either way, boy is feeling goooooood.
At this point, Luna's life is not merely washing over Pumpkin Pie, it's filling him, mingling and merging with him... absorbing him. He can feel a third heartbeat now, Luna's. It beats slowly, powerfully, like a hammer on an anvil. Her body is sinuously at ease, even in this curled up position, because every muscle and sinew is sleekly fit and strong, and her immortality is a vitality like young love, of lightness and energy and perfect health. It is all around him, as vivid as the feel of his own body. He can even feel how her power rushes out of her naturally with her breath, creating the penetrating, echoing Royal Canterlot Voice as she chides, "PRINCE ECLIPSE, THY COMPANION IS A FOAL, ACTING LIKE A FOAL. WE EXPECT BETTER OF THEE, THE RESPONSIBILITY OF A STALLION. TAKE THY FRIEND NOW, AND GET HIM AWAY FROM OUR ROOM, AWAY FROM THIS TOWER. NOW! HE IS IN DANGER. BE A PRINCE AND PROTECT HIM!"
Well that snaps him to action. Eclipse wasn't sure how serious this was, but it certainly seems bad. Of course, everything seems dire in the royal Canterloanian. He gets to pushing at Pie, "Out. Out you go." His horn even lights up a little, lifting a bit of the weight magically so he's easier to push, sort of like a balloon that's a little low on air.
PUB >> Luna can't believe the colts talked her into a scene, as tired as she is. Anybody mind if she kills Pumpkin Pie by accident?
PUB >> Derpy so full of pumpkin pie. Urgle
~Shout to all my lost boys. Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys! We rowdy! BANGARANG!~ Wub Wub Wub. So much is going on and Dynamite Rave seems to be in a trance himself as he plays his little game in front of him. The lights of the display is reflected in the darkness of his shades. Pie is about to prematurely uh..get a cutie mark? Eclipse is leaping into action. Luna is shouting. Dyna? He's wracking up major points in Fighting is Magic. Pika Pika.
PUB >> Flutelphaba IS Defying Gravity says, "I think Apple Bloom might object."
PUB >> Dusk says 'oops'? :-)
Pumpkin_Pie's legs flail in the air, and he gives a painful little whine- like a child being pulled from his favorite toy shop. "Nooooo, I wanna staaaaay. "He squeaks, trying to waggle his feet towards Luna, but can't get any traction! "Awwwww!"
PUB >> Apple_Bloom would object on the grounds she'd have to go somewhere else for carved pumpkins.
PUB >> Luna says, "And to get her pumpkin carved? Nudge-nudge-wink-wink-say-no-more?"
PUB >> Derpy wink wink, always get backwards.
PUB >> Sky_Blue says, "HAI LUNA <3"
PUB >> Pumpkin_Pie says, "I don't even know what that means- But BUCK HOOFINGTON loves the idea of carving Apple's pumpkin!"
PUB >> Cocoa says, "oh my"
PUB >> Apple_Bloom says, "Well, we don't grow a lot of pumpkins on our farm. "
PUB >> Sky_Blue says, "Giggity."
This casual removal is not fast enough. Not nearly fast enough. To Pumpkin Pie, Luna is everywhere. Now he can feel more than her powerful body. He can feel the wisp in front of her, a living thing like himself, and like himself bulging with Luna's vitality. He can feel the electrical power of her unicorn magic winding through her to her horn, twisted and pushed out to link her to the elaborate grid of magic with which she is forcing her vital earth pony energy into the room and reflecting it into the wisp. He can feel the wings, the strength of those extra wings whose slightest movement lifts her body as if it were made of air. He can feel Solar Eclipse as an erratically sparking flame within the web of her magic, and Rave, a dull ember whose feeble warmth still channels elegantly through the toys he's obsessed with, bending the to his will. Then it all goes away very abruptly, locking him in the cold, aching heaviness of his own body. The blue light stops. The orbiting symbols disappear. The throbbing white globe in front of Luna's eyes spasms once, and then pops like a soap bubble. Slowly, liquidly, Luna rises up onto all four feet. Her eyes fade from blank white to regular blue-green, except with sharply cat-slitted pupils. These are focused on Solar with an expression as hard as the softly flat tone in which she informs him, "We have saved thy comrade. Heed us, Eclipse. When we tell thee a pony is in danger, thou leap to action with all thy speed and force. Now, get out of our sight, and pray tomorrow we are less ashamed of thee." Oh, hey, and one other thing. When the light stops? The implosion of magic rips the magic out of Dynamite's toys as well. They all go dark at once, and start to smell like burnt toast.
"Aw #$#@!" Dyanmite hisses out as he jerks his shades upwards and gives his game a few smacks with his hoof. Chucking it off to the side, he lets out a heavy breath. With a blink of his eyes, he glances about for a moment, then says, "Uh, what's going on guys? We outtie now? I gotta hit the can." He says as he hops to his hooves and starts out of the room with a loud yawn. "Yo, I could use a power drink or something too. Freaking getting all brain fried and I think we got like fifteen more miles of castle to explore."
<OOC> Luna heeheehees. Dynamite is SO self-absorbed.
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Yah, I gotta bed also. :/"
<OOC> Dynamite_Rave says, "Dynamite is kinda like a mix of Bender and myself as a California born pony that's now stuck in hickville. XD He's full of ADD, gets bored easy."
Awww. Eclipse did badly. He didn't mean for things to go down like this. He never thought he'd endanger someone on his first Sleep-Over, and worse still, he's upset his Aunt. "Yes ma'am," he says, ears laying back as he stuffs Pie out the door, keeping him floating just a bit. "Ah, yeah, Rave...this way." And he shuffles out the door.
Pumpkin_Pie's ears fold down immediately and his eyes fill with an undescribable sadness. An ache he can only suffer alone now- an emptiness of infinate proportions, that only a Goddess might understand. For a brief, magical second of eternity- he was almost merged with a being unto that of the universe...and now it's gone. "....."He blinks, opening and closing his mouth trying to form some semi balance of words- something along the lines of a joke, perhaps, but nothing springs forth. He longs for that touch again, and knows he'll never find it. The rest of the sleepover may pale in comparison to this- unless they're having cake.
And, very finally, the door slams shut behind all three.
