Indigo cast her eyes downwards, making sure Lemon was still there and sleeping safe. Then she had another look around the place. No signs of anything in sight. Finally, she allowed herself to relax and looked up at the sky with a sigh. The cloud she was on was definitely lower than the ones in her world normally were, but somehow it felt like the stars were closer too.
Wings hadn't been too hard to figure out. Not on the most basic level, at least. She knew she wasn't using them well, but she was still using them well enough for the time being. She'd managed to get herself up there, after all.
The cloud was every bit as soft and comfortable as she'd have imagined one to be as a kid. So nice to rest on, she was almost tempted to fall asleep there. It was better than the ground, that was sure. But she didn't trust herself not to fall off while thrashing in her sleep, much less wake up in time to spread her wings if she did. She still kept the rail on in the top bed, she wasn't about to sleep on a cloud with no protections.
Besides, that wasn't the point. She wasn't gonna sleep up there on a cloud and leave Lemon down on the ground by herself. Especially not in magical pony land. Who knew what kind of creatures could come attack them during the night. She'd only heard stories and seen blurry pictures of anything that hadn't been Twilight, but if the things that had come from that world to hers were any indication, the local fauna would be far from enjoyable.
Well, not completely fair, Indigo thought to herself. Sunset was a pretty welcome sight for a creature from another dimension. A most pleasant one.
Indigo shook herself, and almost slapped herself with a wing. Not the time to think about sexing the magical horse redhead. Never the time to think about sexing the magical horse redhead, considering she was taken, but especially not there and then.
But damn if Twilight wasn't one lucky girl.
Indigo shook herself again. She huffed, standing up. The air was cold, up there, but it didn't keep her awake the same way it usually did. Flying horse biology, if she had a guess. She didn't feel like she wanted to sleep, not when they were out there and Lemon was already sleeping. But she couldn't will herself to stay awake forever.
Eventually, she resigned herself to the best solution she had. She spread her wings and walked off the edge of the cloud, actually managing to glide down safely towards the ground. The cool air in her mane and against her face did help with the sleepiness, but again much less than it usually did.
She landed not too far from Lemon, and walked the rest of the distance by hoof. She yawned once she got there. She had one last look around, making sure nothing was about to ambush them from the shadows, and finally she lay down and curled up against the other pony, closing her eyes.
