Daylight

Foreword/Author's Note

The first few times I heard Daylight, I cried. I don't know why I cried exactly, only that the song struck me as unexpectedly powerful. Once I'd gotten over that, I started to analyze it. Who were these people? Why was it their last night? What were the circumstances in the context of the song?

Being naturally overly dramatic, my first thought was that it was the story of a vampire and her lover, the vampire having grown tired of being a monster and hiding the truth from her lover, so in the morning she was going to run out in the daylight and kill herself. But that was a bit of an extreme example.

So I found that a simpler story would work with Angel and Silver instead. For those unfamiliar, Angel is my OC and Silver the OC of one of my best friends, both of whom were retired over a year ago following the cancellation of my Angels and Demons Trilogy. I've been since yearning to write them again, perhaps due to abandonment issues.

Fans of the attempted trilogy may notice significant differences, most notably that Angel has become a pegasus, and is no longer an alicorn. This is mostly due in part to her character having never wanted to be an alicorn in the first place, and secondly that I don't want to deal with

So the characters are the same, but in their own little contained world this time, with no mention of the events of Angels and Demons. Why is this story necessary, you ask?

It's not.

But I'm writing it anyway.
