If you see something you want day after day, but can never touch it. Does it hurt more to deny it? Or to chase after it with no hope at all?

[Cover art by me]

BlueSky, his life isn't normal, well about as normal as being the personal assistant to Princess Celestia will let you. He is normally sarcastic and rather goofy, but can be very serious. He does his job with a smile and works hard everyday. That would be enough huh?

But it turns out Celestia acts a little different in front of those she trusts with her life. And buck is it a pain in the flank.

Damn that mare...

A very subdued OC story, I know these aren't liked a lot, but I had a good idea for it so here it is.

Prologue Journals

That mare drives me up the wall I swear.

Sorry forget about that remark, anyway this is a journal I'm starting today, Celestia said it would be good to keep a record of my life from now on. I asked why now, apparently she forgot to tell me this before. I guess I should start out with who I am.

My name is BlueSky, I have an abnormal life, but I'm not all that special. I'm a Pegasus so I can fly, but that's no big deal. I'm Celestia's personal assistant and live in a guest room at the Canterlot castle...okay so maybe I am a little on the special side...

If you’re wondering how I became the personal assistant to the goddess of our world and the single most powerful being in Equestria. Well its starts a few hundred years ago.

Apparently an ancestor of mine was a very good friend of Celestia’s and Luna’s even though she was a normal mortal. She was said to be a very strong mare and fought to protect both princesses. Since then my family has had a large part in the princess’s royal guard, a few of them are distant relatives of mine actually.

But why an assistant and not a guard you ask? Well that started with my great grandfather. After his rather early retirement from the royal guard, a terrible wound making him blind in one eye, he came to Celestia with a heavy and blank heart. He had nothing but the royal army, he had no family that would help him and all of his money had went to the war effort during the time. So Celestia gave him something to spend his time on. She was rather busy at the time, a war going on and all, so she gave him the task of going through all of her missed and unfinished work.

It sounds terrible but it came out for the better, my great grandfather took the job in stride, he did a lot of paperwork and foresaw a lot of projects. He was the force behind Celestia that kept her kingdom from crumbling from within, he and the many assistants he had of course. He helped make more money for the war effort, sped up plans that were beginning to lag and was there when Celestia needed a comrade in her times of mortality.

Needless to say this turned into something of a family job, my father and grandmother both followed after my great grandfather. And as you can tell, I did as well.

Now I guess I’ll explain a bit about myself, I have two very unique features. My left ear and right foreleg both have something like a white star-like pattern to them and I’m a little tall for a stallion. I heard my father was just a hoof shorter than the princess herself, if I make my ears stand straight while next to her I reach her jawline.

I have a blue coat and black mane, it’s styled something like a feather, thus starting many childish nicknames, and my tail follows the same trend as my mane. I have my own cutie mark as well, and no it’s not paper and a feather or something, it’s a wrench and pencil in a dark blue ‘X’. Why? I love to write and fix or make things, I still do in my spare time but not as much as I’d like to. Don’t get me wrong I love my job and working with Celestia is a reward in its own right, to some, but I gave up a lot to come work for Celestia.

Another question to be answered I suppose, why am I working for her if I have something else I’d rather be doing? That’s a story for another time altogether.

My dear sister will force him into an early grave at this rate. I might give him a vacation somewhere nice, maybe Haywaii, I hear it’s nice this time of year, I might go with him. Today has been a rather enjoyable one, being awoken by Sky’s shouting always gives me a chuckle, and to see him so angry because sister had left without telling him. Sometimes I wonder if she does it on purpose.

The court today was rather dull, but today was yet another day that Sky has shown why he is the assistant to Tia. He calmed down those obnoxious royals with three sheets of paper, I could have done it with a single look but he is doing his best I think.

Lunch was absolutely the best of the day, Tia and I were eating when Sky came in looking abnormally calm. He walked over to my sister and asked if she had completed the financial report. She gave him one the best smirks she could and answer yes with confidence in her voice, then he put two pieces of paper on the table. Her confidence died upon reading the papers, Sky pulled Tia by the wing out of the dining hall and to their work place. Upon inspecting the paper, I swear I wasn’t sneaking a peak, I saw that my dear sister in her rush to finish her evening work so that she would have some free time, had mixed to financial report for a harvest report. I could not help but laugh as I realized they would have to spend the day recounting the averages of both reports.

Tia and Sky have always had a very strange companionship, my sister bothers Sky and keeps him on his hooves and Sky keeps her on an even schedule that leaves her room to rest after raising and lowering the sun. Though Sky does complain quite a lot, I have never once seen him stop or give up on his work, and my sister, well she doesn’t ever whine to anyone but me and a few of the royal guards, and of course Sky himself. But she always completes her work, whether if she is messing with Sky or reading a chapter of her favorite book she always finds time to finish her work.

I’m reminded of when I asked my sister why she doesn’t just speed through the work like I know she could, she gave me a very funny answer, ‘You’ll understand when you see BlueSky upset at me for moving too slow, he has a habit of squinting when he’s mad. He always gives me such animated responses it makes it worth the lecture afterwards.’

Sky and Tia are like partners in crime at times as well now that I think of it, she’s the frontal assault and he tunes things from behind the scenes to help them play out the way she wants.

It’s time to raise the moon, I hope to write another entry before morning.

There was no need to pull me away from dinner was there. Sometimes he’s so mean, well…did he did go and get me a fresh plate, and made some of his cookies for us to eat as we worked. He also made me that delicious tea…oh I can’t stand how kind he is, if he was meaner then I’d hate him but at least I could be mad.

Anyway we finish up rather early today, we were lucky he caught my mistake when he did, otherwise we’d be behind by a week at least. He looked happy to spend some time just chatting like we do when we finish working, he’s always so animated and seems to change expressions in and instant so it’s refreshing to just sit around and talk.

He told me today that his sister failed one of her tests and their mother gave her a mouthful, we both agreed that she simply wanted her to do her best. It’s so strange how similar we think on such things, I’ve found myself looking at him as a completely different person when he first arrived then how he is now.

Oh my…I remembered something bad, he’ll be mad if he finds out I’m thinking about his father, he told me to not feel bad and that crying wouldn’t help but I just can’t help it.

Time to let the sun set for the day, I’m also expecting Sky tonight he said he wanted to have a moonlit picnic with me for what I did for his birthday. I’m excited to see what he thinks up!

-1- How To Start A Day

A warm and calm wind brushed against a unicorn royal guard standing just outside the Canterlot castle gates causing him to shiver just slightly, “Warm or cold the breeze here goes right through you…”

A second guard nodded and looked at the unicorn guard to say something in agreement when they saw a Pegasus with a blue coat walking towards them. Normally anypony that would so much as glance at the gate would be met with hard and stoic stares. But for this blue coated pegasus two friendly smiles met him, “Back from Cloudsdale already? I thought you were on extended leave?”

The blue pegasus laughed, “I’m not a soldier, I don’t take leaves, I just went to visit, besides I know if I’m gone too long she’ll get lazy.”

“Try not to push her too hard, we need the sun to rise you know.” One of the guards said with a smug grin.

“Yeah whatever, can I come in?” The guards nodded and opened called out to the guards on the other side, the massive doors opened and the blue pegasus walked right in. The doors shut behind him and he took flight towards the higher floors.

Before he could land a soft but powerful voice called out to him, he looked up and saw the owner of the voice. The owner’s coat was a beautiful, sleek, clean navy blue, her mane a constant wave of dark sapphire. Her two large cobalt eyes laid upon the pegasus as he flew to her and bowed slightly to the alicorn princess, “Hello your highness.”

“BlueSky have we not said this already, there is no need to speak to us in such a way, we are friends are we not?” The princess of the moon said as she trotted over to the stallion name BlueSky.

“I know Lulu, just thought I’d try that out, it’s been a while since I called either of you by your titles.” Luna giggled at the nickname and motion Sky to follow her. They walked down the corridor towards Sky’s room and Luna started up a conversation.

“How fairs your mother? I heard she was somewhat ill.” Luna spoke a little worried she might be prying.

“Thanks for being worried, my mother is fine, she just needs to rest, my sister’s driving her crazy so she’s exhausted.”

“What has your sister done to cause your mother to become so sick?” Luna asked reminding herself of a sweet little girl that would follow her brother everywhere he went.

“You know how fillies are when they get to that age, always trying to go against their parents even if they know it’s wrong.”

“Ah yes, I remember mine quite well. Did you go through such a phase as a colt?” Luna asked. She had a sly look on her face, making Sky realize why she asked.

“Unfortunately for you Lulu I didn’t go through that phase myself, I was a social misfit so I didn’t bother trying to fit in anywhere.” Luna’s look of inquiry turned into one of sympathy, “Don’t look at me like that Luna, look at where I am now, I live in the Canterlot castle. I’m friends with the ever wonderful princess of the moon,” this forced a blush out of Luna, “And the truly-“

Sky’s voice came to a halt when he opened the door to his and a certain princess’s usual workplace, with no sign of said princess, “Annoying princess of the sun.” He turned and trotted away angrily, “Maybe I’ll add dead to the end of that when I get my hooves on her.”

“We would like it if you would not strangle our sister. She still needs to lower the sun for today.” Luna followed Sky closely.

“I asked her to be waiting for me, I want to go over the new schedule I made over my visit, but no, she just has to be off who knows where.” Sky looked at Luna, who was only a little taller than he was, “Is there a court in session?”

Luna simply shook her head.

“Any representatives come to talk of peace?”

Another shake.

“A global crisis that will end all life on Equis as we know it?”

Luna thought for a moment, “Besides the one last week no.”

Sky grinded his teeth, “She’d better be held up by something and not in the garden reading that book of hers."

“Oh this book gets better with every chapter!” A beautiful and harmonious voice rang out through a just as beautiful garden. The voice belonged to the picture of beauty in Equis, her rule over the kingdom was kind and just, and shared with her sister. Together they governed the sun and moon and protected all those that live under its rays. A pure white coat shined as the sun’s rays reflected off of her slender and toned body. Her mane flows like a tranquil and undisturbed river of color, her tail not falling behind in any regard. Her excellent wings carefully tucked into her sides as her shining purple globes followed every word of the book, almost absorbing them.

That is until a single word knocked her out of her peace.

“CELESTIA!”

The princess of the sun. The greatest and most powerful being in Equestria. Looked up from her book in horror as two pairs of brown eyes stared daggers at her. Her wings refused to open as she stood up quickly and hid the book, “S-sky!? What a wonderful surprise, I –I thought you’d be out a little-“

“Longer? No, you see, my mother is very selfless, she told me my job here was more important and as soon as I saw that she was being taken care of, I came right back, and guess what?”

Celestia gulped hard, “W-wh-what?”

“You’re on the clock.”

Luna laughed uncontrollably as she watched her older sister be dragged away from her book begging for just on more chapter. She forced herself to calm down and forced her laughing into simmering giggles as she made her way to her own room.

Celestia and Sky sat in their work room in silence as they worked through the piles of papers that were stacked at their sides. Sky was answering letters from nobles and high seat officials that seemed to think that Celestia owed them the world. He would look up periodically and laugh a bit under his breathe at Celestia’s pouting face. She had her cheeks puffed out and her brow was furiously furrowed, but her horn was glowing dimly as she wrote and read the papers at her side.

After sometime had pass Sky stood up and stretched a bit, without a word he left the room, leaving Celestia alone. She finished the few pages in front of her, put them to the side and laid her head down on the ground and sighed heavily, “I wanted to know what happened with Dominic and Thais, stupid cliffhanger, I hope the person who came up with the term-“

The doors to the room opened as Sky returned, “Taking a break?”

Celestia scoffed at him, “I’m sorry your majesty I was simply-,” The delicious scent of familiar cookies forced her mouth shut as she began sniffing the air, “…are those…”

“My special homemade cookies? With cinnamon and chocolate chips, baked just right so that the chocolate melts in your mouth and the cinnamon taste stays in your mouth for days on end? Why yes they are.” Sky smiled as Celestia tried her hardest not to drool on the carpet she laid on. “Would you like one? Or two? Or twelve?”

Celestia’s eyes shined brighter than her own sun as she nodded happily, Sky trotted over and placed the plate of cookies he had balanced on a wing on the floor in front of her, he pulled the napkin off the cookies and their scent made Celestia shiver a bit, “It’s been sooooo long since I’ve had your cookies Sky! Thank you so much!” She smiled happily and used her magic to lift a cookie and ate it whole chewing slowly to take in every taste.

“Your welcome, I saw the work you had finished while I was away, and this is my thank you.” Sky smiled back at her.

Celestia swallowed and blinked at him, “But twelve for a few pieces of paper and a report about the expenses of the newly built hospital?”

Sky smiled warmly cause Celestia to redden just a bit, “You also went out of your way to send me to my mother even though you knew I would be busy with those ‘few pieces of paper’. So I’m saying thank you for that.” He walked away from her and laid down to continue his work, he looked up at Celestia and she was enjoying her cookies, but she would looked at Sky with a shining look in her eyes. It was that look, the one she would give him from time to time, it seemed like she didn’t realize she was doing it.

That look forced up something he didn’t like, he choked them down, rather regrettably but he did it. A pained look shot across his face before settled down a bit, but not before catching Celestia’s attention.

“Sky? Are you okay?” It was the caring look she had now that reminded him she was a princess, “You look…tired.”

“I’m fine Celestia, my wings are bothering me a little, haven’t flown for a long period of time in a while.” Sky unfurled his larger than average wings at Celestia, making a smile grow on her face.

“I’m glad, you know I don’t like it when you worried about something, you always hide it away because you don’t want to bother anyone.” Celestia smiled.

“And how would you know that?” Sky raised an eyebrow at her.

“Because you think like I do.” She winked at playfully and Sky’s face turned a bright shade of red, causing her to giggle.

Sky squinted his eye angrily at Celestia as she giggled, but slowly a smile formed on his face, he sighed and got back to work. Celestia soon followed, putting away the cookies for later and got to work.

The day passed normally for Sky and Celestia, Luna had stopped by after smelling Sky’s cookies and was bursting with joy when she received her share. They finished rather early and had enough time to have one of their regular chats, they talked about whatever came to mind or would continue a talk from before. Sometimes they would read together, they had rather similar tastes in books, romance novels, action and adventure stories and the occasional over the top action comic. It was never dull when they were done for the day.

Celestia lowered the sun and Luna raised the moon, and Sky went off to bed. “Good night Celestia,” he called behind him as Celestia stretched a bit.

“Goodnight Sky.” Celestia gave him a tired smile.

Sky turned to start walking and saw Luna heading towards her perch to watch over the night, “Goodnight Lulu.”

“Fair night to you as well Sky, we hope your dreams give you peace.” She smiled at him and watched as he trotted down the hall to his room.

Celestia couldn’t help but watch him leave as well and before she retired to her own room she mumble something under her breathe, “She’s Lulu…and I’m still Celestia…”

“Have you read the latest chapter yet?” Celestia asked Sky, he had to shake himself awake before answering.

“Huh? I’m sorry I dozed off for a second there.” He rubbed the back of his head with a free hoof, the other holding a book open. He and Celestia were in her garden surrounded by a dim sunlight. Each other them had the same book but Celestia was much farther ahead than Sky.

“Its fine, I could never be mad at you Sky.” Celestia giggled a bit and Sky just smiled.

“Huh? Is that so? I wonder why…”

This is what I wanted, all this time.

“You’re going to make me say it?” Celestia gave him a sly look.

Those words…they echo inside me…

“I’m not making you do anything am I? So what’s the reason?

I want them to come out. It hurts to hold them in…

“Well it’s because I…I…”

But I already know it’s not possible.

“…thank you for trying, it does make me feel better that you’re so worried about me Lulu.” Sky smiled as Celestia’s face contorted into a look of pity and sorrow.

“W-we are sorry! We did not mean to hurt you!” Celestia’s face burned away to reveal Luna’s underneath, the world around them fell apart and because a strange dreamscape. Doors and star everywhere, patches of blue and black covered in a sea of white. “We did what we thought-,”

“I know Lulu.” Sky placed a hoof on Luna’s shoulder to reassure her, but this only caused her to get an even more pain expression.

“Tis not right! Why must you destroy your happiness even in your dreams?” Luna grabbed his hoof with hers, her eyes on the verge of tears.

“Because I know myself well enough…that I know how this will end.”

He slowly began to age, the years piled on more and more. He became taller, just slightly until he was a bit taller than Luna, then his blue coat began to fade. His mane and tail both began to lose their shine and became gray, his eyes turn from youthful to old. His skin began to sag and his blue coat turned into a dull dark blue, his mane dark gray with white patches everywhere, his wings had lost feathers and his body looked fragile, “I’ll age on and on, until my death. That is how this works.” He smiled at her with a look of pure defeat.

“That does not mean you give up your chance at love!” Luna spat in his face and Sky returned to normal with a flash of blue aura from Luna’s horn. “You trusted your feelings with me, you told me because you could not bring yourself to hold it in any longer. I wanted to help you even if in just your dreams, but every dream I give you, you destroy, do you think you are not worthy!?”

“Of course I do!” Sky’s ear feel to the sides of his head, “I’m a taller than average pegasus with skills in writing drawing and making things, and she’s a goddess of the sun, a figure of power and beauty, I’m beneath-,”

SLAP

Sky’s cheek blazed red as Luna finally let tears fall from her face, “I will not allow you to speak of yourself in such a manner!” She place her hooves on the ground with a loud thud causing Sky to shrink back a bit. “You are my friend and I refuse to let you degrade yourself because you are scared of hurting her in some way, do not assume you know how she feels!”

Sky looked away from Luna, “But this is what I’m good at…am I supposed to come out and tell her tomorrow? How could I possibly do that...?”

Luna slowly wrapped her forelegs around Sky and held him close, his coat getting wet from her tears, “I know, I am sorry, I let my anger…”

“No, no, you were right Lulu, but…I’m just not ready…I don’t think I can say it out loud much less to someone, you just caught me.” Sky breathed hard and returned the hug, “I’m so weak…”

“No, you are simply in love, right?” Luna smiled and nuzzled into Sky’s neck.

“You’ve gotten into Celestia’s pile haven’t you?” Sky and Luna shared a laugh, “…Lulu…what am I going to do? I can’t keep hiding this forever.”

Luna broke the hug and smiled at him, “We will come up something…together.” Sky’s hoof rubbed against Luna’s cheek clearing up some of her tears.

“Thanks Lulu, you have no idea what this means to me.” Sky smiled at her warmly, a light blush forming on her muzzle.

“Careful with that look of yours, you wouldn’t want me falling for you now would you?” She winked at him and he just laughed.

“Then someone we know would get lonely.” Sky stated causing Luna to go into a furious blush.

“Silence you cur!” Luna poked his chest hard, getting a laugh out of him.

Sky and Luna gave each other a look that told anyone that could see it, if it weren’t in a dreamscape, that they were true friends. They shared another hug and Luna vanished into sand, Sky was left alone in his own dream scape but he slowly began to feel tired. He laid down and a bed of grass form under him, a hill appeared along with a tree above him, covering him in patches of shade. He closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep, the world drifting farther and farther away.

Author's Note

Okay so here is the format, Chapter-Journal-Chapter-Journal etc.

I hope this one goes well, I can honestly say this one is better planned than Scales and Carapaces, which is on its way, I'm going to upload like three chapters at once I think.

Lunar Sky Journals 1

I have to remember that this journal thing is important.

Where was I? Oh yeah now I remember, the things I sacrificed to come here to work...

I've gone over this but not in detail, in professional standards I'm a writer and somewhat of a techhead. I said a bit simply because I can't build something that complex, but I can fix things in a pinch. Before I was Celestia's assistant, I was a writer, with exactly two books published, three books I helped write and a bunch I had the pleasure to edit. But the real world hit my dream to create stories that ponies can enjoy like a bucking meteor.

It was hard starting out at first, but it didn't get any better later on, I barely got by with my short stories and editing job. I had to take jobs left a right to keep myself fed. I got lucky with a place to live, for a while I lived with a old friend of mine Xhisrc in Ponyville. I didn't get out much though, and when I did I was working odd jobs. I refused to let Xhisrc feed me, that would have killed my pride.

But as hard as it was...I loved my job. It was fun to write, I met other writers and editors along the way and made lots of friends. I actually inspired one pony to begin writing stories, that made my entire year, never met a fan before so that was new.

But hard times and love of writing aside, when Celestia herself came to Xhisrc's door, that was the strangest day of my life. The face she had that day and the words she said are still burned into my cranium.

'BlueSky, third son of HonorBound, I-'

At that point I realized she was on the verge of tears.

'Your father HonorBound has...he has...your father...your kind, brave...strong father...'

Then I realized I was crying, we both had the same look on our face.

'D-died...pr-protecting me...h-he saved my life...and all I did was scream and cry...'

She probably expected me to outright blame her, hell, she blames herself, every chance she gets. But all I did was stare and cry, in silence.

'I must be honest with you...' Too late for that. 'Everyone planned to ease into telling you...but your mother told me that you deserve to be told straight. Your father protected me from a assassin, a unicorn using dark magic...'

She walked inside without needing to ask, I had already stepped aside. We sat on Xhisrc's carpet and I listened, it sounded like a confession at some point.

'We were in the middle of court when I felt something off with one of the nobles, and before I could speak out, he jumped on the table and shot what I can assume was a spell that was meant to end my life...but your father was faster than my thoughts...he always was faster on his hooves than most...'

Normally ponies ask why, or did you catch the culprit...but I asked if he died in pain...she broke down right in front of me, yelling at me. Screaming that my father shouted...screeching in pain, in terrible agony, and all she could do was stare, cry and beg him to be alright. He was in pain, burning, lethal pain but he asked Celestia to tell me what happened personally.

I began asking her questions, I ask what the spell did, she choked on her words but told me it was a decaying spell meant to cause suffering beyond measure before death. I asked if she knew the unicorn, she only sobbed and shook her head 'no'. I asked if he suffered for long before death took him, she began to cry even more...I thought then I was just sad, but I may have hated her for a time. I wanted her to feel pain...I hated myself after she looked at me.

I still do sometimes, she didn't deserve that. But we ended up crying together for what felt like years, I went back to Canterlot with her and nearly every guard I saw looked like they had cried. I found out later my dad was nosy and a busypony who wanted to help everypony, I figured thats how he would be.

The funeral killed my eyes, crying for hours, being hugged by ponies I knew only as distant cousins, by other guards that my father touched. By Lulu, by BlueBlood, yes that pain in the flank...he never looked so terrible. I received kind words from crying nobles and it was the first time I truly met Twilight Sparkle and her friends. Twilight had lent me books to help inspire me, but now she had her hooves wrapped around my neck crying, she's so kind. Her friends were more reluctant, I hardly knew any of them, save Pinkie, Spike and RainbowDash, same flight school and such.

Diane was a mess, her eyes red, her mane was flat and with barely any color, her husband was beside her trying to cheer her up, I feel bad that I didn't know his name. Spike was taking it better than most, he was crying sure but he laid a claw on my shoulder, he was only just taller than me on all fours. He told me that death wasn't the end, he'd always be with me, he was much more mature than I gave him credit for. Rainbow...poor Rainbow, she knew my dad and buck was it hard on us both, we joked about the times we would drive him crazy as foals...then the tears came back. I think we spent the most time crying together, aside from my family.

My family...my mom, my sister, my brothers...they all came looking for me immediately and was sat together and talked. My mother was in pieces, my brother held her in place and my little sister, DreamCatcher stayed by my side all day.

......I had a point I was getting to...I'll just keep going...

A week after the funeral Celestia came to me with Lulu and some guards, asking for my presence at Canterlot castle. It was there she told me that my brothers declined my father's job as her assistant. My oldest brother, AmberPrism, had to run his animal shelter and my other brother, JazzRythme, had his music and family to consider, so she thought she'd at least ask. She still had red in her eyes when I took the job, I thought that I worked the same job, I could close the hole in my heart.

It took two months for Celestia to meet my eyes, nearly five to smile at me, Lulu was just as bad, but she met my eyes since the day I got there. Like she had to, like it was her duty, I snapped her out of that in about a few months.

Wrapping up, my job as a writer was important but...I got a chance to see my father's job...I gave up writing professionally to do what I do now. I love my job and thank Celestia that I'm able to do it, I've heard so much about my father since I started working here...I miss him...

I need to go get the dusk out of my eyes...till next time...

I'm glad I met Sky before he went to bed...he looked so distraught...so foreign...I thought back to when I met him. He was so sad then well, but he still tried to make me and sister smile. I spent so much time with him after he came to live at the castle. I was trying to make up for my inability to save HonorBound...but I realized how silly I was after spending so much time with him. He was so different from his father, sarcastic, animated, emotional and very philosophical, but he has a temper and can't see past his flaws. His father was insightful and nosy, he never gave himself time to regret anything he did, he always had a look of a veteran. Sky loves sweets and cold nights, opposite to his father who lived for spicy and hot days.

HonorBound was like a old soldier back from duty, while Sky is more like a childhood friend you can fight with. He's silly, easy to talk to, but when he is serious, Sky is supportive and a pillar of knowledge when the need arises. He's done a wonderful job becoming his father's successor and made his own identity.

But I never want Sky to look like that again, its too painful. I'm happy he talks to me about these things, but I feel like he wants to take to someother alicorn princess, one that control the sun.

If I said that out loud he might glare at me, I'll try it tomorrow.
