//------------------------------// // Prompt 1: Blue Eyes // Story: Fire's Short Stories // by ThatGirlOnFire //------------------------------// The prompt: Write a Rainbow Pie story in which one (or both) of the characters does not utter a single word of dialogue for the entire story. She was so beautiful when she was sleeping. Rainbow Dash looked down at the sleeping mare beside her. She was kicking in her sleep, and Dash knew that meant she was having the dream about gumball soccer again. She didn't mind, especially since she was cuddling awfully close to her. Dash wrapped her wings around her, snuggling her closer. The wind howled outside, and the pink mare winced a little, making a whimpering noise. She was so quiet when she slept- interesting since, as most knew, she never stopped talking when she was conscious. Dash thought about her marefriend's eyes. Those endless blue eyes. She would be perfectly happy to stay there forever, looking right at them. Once upon a time, before they had met, Dash had played a game with the other little fillies in flight school where they described their soulmates. Dash's changed each day- sometimes a big, muscular stallion, sometimes a small, quiet mare. But they always had blue eyes. She was a sucker for big, blue, eyes, and when Pinkie found that out she realized she had a chance of being more than just friends. They always argued about who kissed who first, though Dash knew it was Pinkie and Pinkie claimed it was Dash. For a second, she asked herself why she loved the bouncing, pink mare. Answers began spilling out. Her laugh. Her smile. Her need to make everyone around her as happy as they could be. Her curly pink hair she didn't bother to tame. Her persistence. Her energy. Everything about her. But especially her blue, blue eyes.
