  386. "Well... when Celestia and I were little, I..."
  387. >She giggles at the thought.
  388. "I used to be a bad kid... not on purpose though. But my father would always send me outside whenever I was bad. He called it banishing."
  389. >Aww.
  390. "I'd cry and cry. Seeing Celestia on the other side of the glass sliding door in a brightly lit room.
  391. But... when I looked up, I saw that... there was a big bright ball in the sky.
  392. Almost as bright as the sun. It lit up our backyard and I felt comfort knowing that something was there for me... to comfort me.
  393. I had fun in the mysterious luminesence that it and the stars provided."

  402. "Well... it's not you. It's nice to be out here with someone for once. I'm just worried that... you're not having fun."
  403. >You reassure her that tonight's for her to enjoy.
  404. "Thanks, Daewon."
  405. >Anon.
  406. "Right."
  407. >After walking a couple laps around the park, you two park it on a bench.
  408. "There she is... the moon."
  409. >You smile at the light it shines.
  410. >You look away from it and see the blueish white glow that it sheds on everything around you.
  411. >Especially the girl sitting next to you, smiling contently.
  412. >Night time has never looked this bright.
  413. >And you've never seen the moon this large.

  426. "Getting cold, Anon?"
  427. >You pull her in for extra warmth.
  428. >Not so cold any more.
  429. >But yeah, the moon's real pretty.
  430. >You stay for while in silence enjoying each other's company.
  431. "We... probably should go soon, class tomorrow. Y'know."
  432. >The two of you stand up as you walk back toward the apartments.
  433. >And... you pass by a cafe.
  434. >Luna shivers.
  435. >In other words, you hold her hand and take her inside.
  436. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtFBRJFN3p8
  437. >The store's relatively empty. The only inhabitants are the two baristas and Frankie over there.
  438. >You order a hot cocoa. Never really had a thing for coffee.
  439. >And Luna orders herself some coffee or something and reaches into her purse.
  440. >You stop her, and put your hand on your wallet.
  441. >The leatherbound carrying case destroys your hand like a jollybuzzer.
  442. >But you withstand the pain... and whip out the debit card.
  443. >Barista one swipes your card while barista two hands you two your drinks, as you head out.
  444. "Thanks again Anon... but you didn't have to."

  465. >Asiana.
