Dream Mare

I awoke of my own accord around 8:00. About two hours before I needed to be at work. As I sat up on the couch I could hear the shower running so I decided to make breakfast before Luna was finished in the bathroom. I decided to make eggs since that was most likely the closest thing I would probably get to eating meat while Luna was still here.. By the time that the eggs were done the shower had stopped running and Luna walked into the dining room/kitchen dressed in a white blouse with a black skirt and heels. Probably something out of the Sears catalogue I left lying in my room.

"Mornin', I hope to God ponies eat eggs." I greeted her.

"Good morning Miles. And for future reference, ponies do eat eggs." Luna replied smiling. I made us both a plate and we sat down to eat.

"So what are we doing today?" Luna asked as we ate.

"Well, I have to go to work in about an hour and a half and you should probably go with me." I answered with a mouthful of eggs.

"Sounds like fun." Luna said, it sounded a little forced but I appreciated the lack of complaining.

About an hour and a half later, Luna and I headed out to my car, a dark blue Mercedes-Benz (what can I say, I'm car poor and I like blue). After helping Luna figure out how the seat belt works, we were off.

A couple minutes down the road I decided to turn on the radio. Which of course confused the hell out of Luna.

"What's that?" she asked, pointing towards the radio.

"It's a radio. You just turn this knob right here and it tunes in to a different station." I answered.

"How many stations are there?" Luna asked.

"Too many to count. You can only get certain stations in certain regions. But I'm guessing that there are at least a few thousand just in this country." I replied.

I nodded and her mouth hung agape for a few seconds. She then turned her head to face the window before looking back at me.

"So this is the type of music humans listen to?" she asked.

For the first time since I turned it on I actually listened to the song on the radio, which happened to be some stupid Miley Cyrus twerking bullshit.

"Thank God not all of us. This is more or less...what's the word I'm looking for..."

"Caterwauling?" Luna suggested.

"Yeah that's it." I chuckled. "Let's try something else shall we?" I turned off the radio and started looking through my CD's until I found what I was looking for.

"Who's Black Sabbath?" Luna asked, looking at he CD in my hand.

"Just an old band from about forty years ago." I answered her. The CD I held I my hand was their first album: Black Sabbath.

"Are they any good?" she asked. It occurred to me that they probably don't have heavy metal where she's from.

"I think so. Let's give it a try." I inserted the disc and pushed PLAY. A few seconds later...

At that point, Luna turned completely white as if she had seen a ghost. I couldn't help but laugh by that point. She turned towards me and spoke.

"So this is the music you like to listen to...interesting."
