	Moonie lets out a load groan before tossing the book she was reading behind her.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm just sick of all these lame superheroes winning all the time. When does Dr Stallion Von Doom get his moment of triumph?"
She groans again before rolling over onto her back.
"Well, good is always meant to win in the end."
"Yeah but the villain's victory is always short-lived because he has to brag about his plans or leave the hero in a situation where he can get out easily."
Moonie uses her magic to lift Sir Bearington above her and make him dance. Her boredom is written as clear as day on her face.
"Wait, so they don't even do things like killing off a hero or villain?"
"Nope. Boring right? I need violence," she comments while shaking her forehooves in the air in frustration.
Normally you'd be concerned about the way she said that but given the circumstances, you can understand.
"How about I tell you a story?"
"More Lovecraft?" She perks up as she asks.
"No, something else," you reply.
You then list off a few heroes from DC and Marvel whose story you know pretty well like: Batman, Nightwing, Thor, Guardians of the Galaxy, Green Lantern, Wolverine, Spider-man and a few more before asking her to pick one. And of course, the Mistress of the night goes for Nightwing. 

Then you begin with a little back story about how he was formerly called Robin as a kid while training under Batman then you get into his own story. You do your best to be as descriptive as possible, even drawing what people look like to show her. A few times you'll add in your own details because you've either forgotten what it actually was or thought it was stupid, like when they gave him a gun. Moonie is enthralled the whole time. Especially when someone is killed off or has the crapped kicked out of them and winds up a cripple. You take a glance out the window to see it's gotten way past Moonie's bedtime.
"Woah, bedtime."
"Aww, but Batman and Nightwing were about to fight the Red Hood," she protests.
"I'll tell you the rest later. Now bed."
She gives a loud, annoyed groan before marching off to the bathroom. You get the idea that you should write the story down, it's kind of plagiarising but you're in a different world with not a lot for you to do when Moonie isn't around. Once Moonie has finished her nightly routine, she climbs into bed and you tuck her in. The two of you say goodnight and you head to bed yourself. Sleep comes naturally but you don't sleep long thanks to something jumping up onto your bed.
"Moonie?"
"Nay, it is I, Nightwing and I've come to end your tyranny!"
"What are you tal-"
You're interrupted by Moonie drop kicking you in the gut. Perhaps this wasn't such a good idea after all.
