“Well, you are in a bad mood.” Luna said as we met in the realm between dreams, “What happened?”

I settled down next to her with a sigh, leaning against her side as I watched the portal next to us for any sign of a Night Terror before I nuzzled at her neck, “Sunset Shimmer.”

“Oh?” Luna asked with a smile as she nosed at my ear, “What did she do this time?”

Sighing I shook my head, “Mainly... being Sunset Shimmer.”

“Ah.” Luna said with a grin and nipped at my ear tip, “I have known ponies like that in the past. In my experience, you end up either killing or bedding them.”

“Not you too...” I groaned, putting my head against her neck.

“Just teasing, My Page.” she said with a grin in her voice, giving my ear a nip, “What did she do?”

“...She leers at my wings.” I admitted. There was no way in hell I was bringing the rest of it up.

“Well, they are nice wings...”

I raised my head to look at her and Luna smiled, nuzzling, “Relax. You do realize it's something you should get used to, right?”

“You are in a mood today.”

“Mhmm.” She agreed with a nod, “Not sure why, I just am. Now, don't worry about it. You do not think I feature in quite a few dreams? Or my sister?”

I didn't exactly like that fact, but it was something you just have to live with when being together with a goddess.

“Or you?” She continued with a smile, “You don't think there are plenty of mares dream of Princess Luna's consort? Even without knowing you are an alicorn?”

Sighing I nodded, “True.”

“My Page... are you blushing?”

Yes.

“No.”

“Yes, you are.” she teased and nuzzled, “It's cute.”

“...The world known author, Blank Page, Lord of Equestria, consort of Princess Luna, speaker with the hive, bringer of peace with the changelings, and vanquisher of Tirek... Is cute.”

Luna grinned, “I'll go as far as handsome.”

“I'll take handsome.” I sighed and shifted to kiss her softly, “I just have to deal with it, don't I?”

“Yes. But if you are really uncomfortable about it, have you asked Sunset Shimmer to stop?”

“I... uhm... no?”

Luna shook her head, “So?”

“...I'll deal with it. Asking her to stop would be letting her win.” I answered after a long moment, putting my wing across her back, leaning against her side with a small smirk, “I'll let you know if I decide to kill her or otherwise.”

“Otherwise?” Luna snorted and shifted to look at me with a mock glare, “Otherwise!? I'll teach you otherwise!” she exclaimed with a grin before she pounced.

“Eep!”

Not sure how long time passed. Time doesn't pass the same way here as it does in the real world. It could have been minutes or could have been hours. Dreams are different like that and I have not really learned how to keep track yet.

“Time for me to wake up now.” Luna sighed and pulled me closer with her front legs, “It's almost time to raise the moon.”

I sighed, “I really dislike this entire different schedules thing. Or at least that they are this different. I can't wait until I get back to Canterlot.”

“You say so almost every time, My Page. But I miss having you next to me in the real world too.” Luna said, “But it's not long now.”

“A few weeks.” I agreed and nuzzled, “I can't wait.”

Smiling Luna kissed me, “Sweet dreams, My Page.” before she faded away in a sparkle of lights as she woke up.

I just sighed and stayed there for a moment, rolling onto my back, looking up at the not sky. I wanted to wake up and take the train back to Canterlot now. But I needed to get a full handle of this entire flying thing and I couldn't do that now. Right now, the best you could say about my flying is 'not likely to kill himself or others'. I needed to get better than that and not like I can really practice in Canterlot. Not unless I wanted to announce I'm an alicorn. My illusion of being another pony was good, but not so good that there was no risk I wouldn't slip up at close range.

Dream time may beat the hell out of letters or even phone, but it didn't beat actually being there.

Well, it was only a couple of weeks. I can handle a couple of weeks.

Rolling onto my hooves I got up and stretched, spreading my wings before glancing to my right at my wing before I folded it again. Damn right my wings looked amazing. Now let's get to work.

It's still a bit early if Luna are just raising the moon now, but some ponies should be asleep already so I might as well do a early sweep.

Bringing up the interface, I started to filter through dreams. Like I thought there were not that many dreamers around yet, only a couple of thousand. Eh, don't need to filter those heavily, I'll just do them manually. I'll just remove the least likely three quarters and see what we end up with. Happy and/or romantic dreams can be filtered out, I'll check the rest.

Flicking the confirm button with my hoof I watched the not-landscape shift around before me, depositing the silvery portals before me in a orderly row I could move along. Luna didn't like the way I did this, she thought it took the magic out of it. But I would rather be efficient than magical in this case. I can do magic when it came to actually entering dreams.

Normal nightmare, sleep tight.

Normal dream, leave alone.

What in the fuck?

I paused by the portal next to me with one front hoof lifted off the not-floor with a frown as I looked at the mirror, and with that I mean mirror. It was completely blank, not like the ripply portals around.

I had never seen anything like that. Even ponies that were not actively dreaming still... rippled with slight colors and waves. This one was like a mirror.

What?

A thought brought up the interface and I shifted things around, copying the dream portal's 'readings' and doing a search, giving me almost a hundred of them. What is this? It's like... they were clearly sleeping, but it was like there were no dreams.

Frowning I walked up and walked through the closest one. Let's see what we have here.
