About nine months ago, Luna and Twilight started dating. The first couple of months were amazing. They hung out nearly daily, especially as Twilight refined her teleportation magic. They bought each other gifts, Luna specifically catching an eye on how to spot magical artifacts at antique stores. They curled up with each other at night when their schedules allowed them to, which Luna enjoyed dearly even if things hadn’t gotten super intimate yet. Their conversations were long and fascinating, even if Luna would admit that most of her interest came from her lack of knowledge of the last thousand years.

But lately, Twilight is too busy and keeps canceling all of their dates. Worried something is wrong, Luna reaches out to somepony who might be able to her.
