Bleeding Strings: Man in a box

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.

Author's Note:

Based on mostly true events

the Recipe for both drinks.
Red Requiem-
one part merlot
one part white rum
one part peach schnapps
one part pink lemonade
one part blue vodka
one part Rosso martini

it becomes red as blood

for the garo, just leave out the merlot and it will be a lovely golden color

As excellent as this chapter is, why does it feel...lacking?

I kinda thought that Twilight had a thing for him so she's jealous.
Course, being confused doesn't really prove that... -_-
