Sometimes you have a thought that you should probably tell someone. A little support for all they've done for you, a chance to clear the air after a misunderstanding, maybe even that confession you've been holding onto for far too long. Is it worth keeping that thought to yourself at a time when tomorrow's chance may never come?

While Twilight may not have had any such thought, she came too close to denying those close to her such a chance. In the aftermath of another intense adventure, the recovering princess finds herself with a lot of free time and a friend sticking by her side. It might be time to bring such thoughts into the open, and see where they lead.

I know I said I was effectively done with writing, but sometimes you just get an itch you want to scratch and then here we are. It took a little while to get back into the groove of things but hopefully the quality hit isn't too bad. Enjoy, and see if you can figure out just what spurred me into this one!

Also serves as an alternate ending to Black Sun wherein Celestia and Spike reach the Tomb of the Gods in time to rescue Twilight. I hopefully put enough in that it can be followed (or at least you're not completely lost) without reading the main story though.

Rated T violence for injuries worse than the show would depict.
