Luna simply looked at me for a moment. Celestia had trotted in with a small smile as I turned to the two stallions.
"You two had best leave, Night Court is adjourned for now" they both looked at me for a moment before turning tail and running off into the night.

"Excuse me, Robert, but why did you let them go?" Twilight asked me from the side.
I raised my hand to my chin, idly scratching my beard. "I havent a clue" I grinned.
there was a slight groan emenating from the entire room. I simply shrugged, "now then, how about that drink?"
Luna nodded, as she set off.

the four of us idly chatted away, and before long, we were in a small, cozy room.
"Well then, mighty alchemist? make us thy potions of intoxication" Luna spoke, I simply let out a small chuckle.
"fair enough milady" I grinned at the princess, reaching for various bottles before simply chuckling.
"two choices, Garo.... Or red requiem?"

all three looked confused for a moment. Luna spoke once more "Surprise us"
I grinned, before long the drinks were ready, I placed each one infront of them. "drink up me hearties, yo ho" I chuckled before Finding my way to a balcony. Reaching into one of my pockets, I pulled out my phone. still a full battery...makes a change I thought to myself, as I placed the earphones in.

soon enough, I was watching the stars, each one a small masterpiece. the way each one flickered like fairylights on a christmas tree. Soon enough, I began to sing

, quietly at first. I carried on quietly serenading the stars, Oblivious to what was going on.

I felt a hoof on my back. I didn't notice the glow in my eyes as the music carried forth from seemingly nowhere. I turned to see Luna smiling at me. I blinked for a moment during an instrumental break. "What?" Eye's still aglow. She raised a hoof to cover her giggle, Which actually sounds quite cute. great...I've been here for almost three weeks and already I'm falling...
Oh well.

I continue to sing my merry tune, taking a random swig of alcohol every so often. for unknown reasons I felt compelled to take the Lunar princesses Hooves in my hands and dance with her, which promptly caused a blush to spread across her face. "Thou art quite intoxicated aren't thee?" I shake my head. Celestia was in fits of laughter, having noticed how awkward Luna and I looked.

Twilight looked incredibly confused.
