	Jareth sat precariously on his throne, bored out of his mind again. If nothing was going wrong, then he had no reason to intervene in Luna's challenge. A quick peep through his crystal also showed that Sarah was having no problem with the filly, either. Much too boring to spy on.
He wanted so desperately to have something to do, but even breaking out into song seemed dull and uninspiring at the moment. No amount of dancing or goblin-kicking could cure his boredom. He would just have to be content with staring at a wall while trying to get comfortable. Why did he have his throne made circular in the first place?
Jareth eventually got bored of that, too, and like a teenager with internet access, he revisited the same scene he declared boring only minutes ago, to see if something had changed. Indeed, something had changed, as the Princess of the Night had shadows surrounding her, talking to her. The crystals did not allow him to hear what was being said, but the sight in itself was rather sad. Poor Luna looked like she wanted to murder those shadows. So those are one of the challenges the Labyrinth has decided Luna should face? It would be interesting to see how they play out.
Watching Luna talk to shadows also got boring just as quickly as one would expect. In fact, it was almost too quickly to think that Jareth was even capable of an adult attention span. One would assume that his focus length was just as long, if not shorter, than a goldfish. Yes! That must have been it! The Goblin King had the attention span of a college senior!
He had decided that it was time for a walk. He vaguely remembered walking past a tiny village of miniscule Goblins, and touching a brick. It had fallen out of whatever structure it had been part of, but that was of little concern to Jareth.
The fresh air had been a nice change of pace. He really would have to stop cooping himself up inside his castle, but what if he missed an interesting wish? One wish a day, though, he had usually said. It wasn't that it took too much energy to grant more than one, it was more along the lines that he didn't like making more than one mortal enemy per day. This mental chat along with the walk was very pleasant, and he would certainly have to try it more-
“NEVER CALL US NIGHTMARE MOON!” Great.... that's another four goblins with insurance to pay. Unfortunately for Jareth's eardrums, he could tell that Luna was just around the corner.
“Did I not instruct you specifically never to use the Royal Canterlot Voice within my Labyrinth?” Lucky for him, Luna didn't turn around until after he had finished poking his finger through his ears, trying to get the ringing to go away.
“What will you do to Us?” she asked, trying to use a high-and-mighty voice with him. “Take some of our time away?” What did she think he was? Repetitive?
“Oh no,” Jareth said. “Much worse.” With a bit of flare, he made a crystal, which turned itself into a ring that would seal the unicorn's magic, that conveniently wrapped itself around her horn in a nice, showy manner. He couldn't help but smirk a little.
“This will prevent you from using ANY magic at all, including levitation of yourself and other objects around you.” Perhaps that would teach her a lesson. He was starting to leave when he had just thought of the perfect farewell-phrase, as well.
“Good luck using your hooves.” Take THAT, stupid shout-happy Princess.
