While on the moon, Luna and Nightmare Moon had time to think, time to argue, and most importantly, time to reflect.

What had they done? Was it worth it?
And who was she?
Was she Luna? Was she Nightmare Moon?
Or was she something else?

And if she was, could she live with herself knowing that?

------
One Shot.
A sequel to Luna's Reflection. Reading that is not necassary to understand this.

“When the Moon fell in love with the Sun, all was golden in the sky, all was golden when the Day met the Night.”

Story Title and themes inspired by song with the same title, by Panic! at the Disco.

After months of brooding and sulking, Celestia's rage finally breaks. Convinced her subjects no longer love her she resolves to turn the monarchy into a dictatorship ruled by fear. Luna is forced to seal her sister within the sun and rule on her own for a thousand years before her return.

Ummm for any of you guys who are interested I've just started up a tumblr. Its nothing special but I'll be making it an interactive part of this story and future stories. If you want to see your ideas here I'll be happy to hear them out http://flutteringashes.tumblr.com/

When Luna was banished to the moon, what exactly happened up there? A lot can change in a millenia. A lot can happen. We know what happened down here, but what happened up there, where nopony could see. What happened in the last few decades before her return, when she was just an old mare's tale?

Was she Luna? Was she Nightmare Moon? Or was she something in between?

Could she live with herself if she was?

Okay. Random? Yes. Premeditated Random? Sorta.
Enjoy. Not my usual writing style, so tear this one apart.

This story is a sequel to Celestia's Twilight

We all know the story. One thousand years ago Princess Celestia was forced to banish Nightmare Moon to the moon to save all of Equestria, but what if Luna had been hiding something from her sister, scared of how she would react? When Luna had no other choice, she cried out for Celestia and Celestia came. For one thousand years, Luna wondered what happened when Celestia left; now she's finding out...

But is it already too late, or will Luna be able to take the role she had so long dreamed of? The dream of being a mother?

editor Don't Look At My Name Bro! and RK I am lost without you!

Ever since Tirek had been returned to Tartarus, Celestia has been experiencing a recurring nightmare: Luna was never healed and she was only biding her time. Celestia wakes every morning covered in cold sweat and yet she knows the dream is impossible. Luna is only Luna. So why? Why can she not rid herself of these horrible images? Luna suggests a plan to vanquish the nightmare knowing it would be impossible in the dream realm. The only possible way: An old spell.
Luna and Celestia are willing to do anything for one another. Does that include becoming the other?

Nightmare Night goes a little differently and leads into a spiraling staircase of events. the Night will forever be mixed with the scent of Lavender.
this is basically my old story Lavender Night, but revised and redone completely, only the basic story elements are there

One night, just like that, Celestia realizes she's going to die in less than twenty-four hours.

*Part of Mother's Universe*

The princesses gave their magic to Twilight to prevent Tirek from stealing it. As a result, they end up stuck in Tartarus.

Marvelous place, Tartarus. Really brings ponies together. The fact that things manage to go downhill here says a lot about the wonders of family and alicornhood.
