As I stare into the ocean of space and time encapsulated in her eyes, her darkness envelops me in a cold embrace... so cold, I no longer feel, and just am. A being drifting through the abyss as her light twinkles from the tapestry of stars. I gaze in awe and wonder at the swirling nebulae and exploding nova's that are her thoughts, dreams, and emotions, completely unaware of how tiny and insignificant I really am, so enraptured by her am I. The universe ripples around me, waves that are her laughter washing over me as solar rays, filling me with warmth and life. But then, sadness, and anger, a spot of darkness so powerful it pulls everything into itself, devouring and crushing planets, stars, clouds of matter and light, and even whole galaxies. Nothing escapes its jaws, and as I'm pulled toward that gaping insatiable maw that seeks only to destroy, I am filled with terror. I scream, but no sound escapes to mark my existence and impending fate to the rest of the universe. The sonic waves of fear are sucked in to the silent and dark vacuum that looms before me, and I finally feel how alone I am, alone to face this doom. I close my eyes, to try to shut myself off to what is happening around me, and curl into a ball, resigned. Then... nothing.
I open my eyes. She gazes back at me with a sardonic expression, one eye arched either out of amusement or query, of which I'm not certain. I take in the tapestry of diamonds that is her starry mane, but can only see the dark abyss, and an involuntary shiver runs through my body, making me briefly aware of my own existence once again. But only for a moment, even as my eyes seek hers again, and the sea of turquoise pulls me into the vast dark universe of her mind once again...
Ach, I intended to reply sooner, sorry 'bout that. What inspired this... Well, I was going through 's gallery when I saw the original for this, and realized "Hey, I've seen this before!" And I glanced over at the side where the recommended are, and I saw your edit, which I'd forgotten you'd done. I clicked on it, went "Oh hey! Now I remember" and then just sat there for what must have been... oh, ten minutes or so, just looking at it. And I did pretty much what I wrote, just gazed into her eyes, and then my mind just kinda floated in (this sounds weird, I know). My mind just does that. I've always had ideas and thoughts about what NMM is like in character, what it's like in her mind, because she's always intrigued me, and was one of the major factors in me becoming a brony. I never had fully "solidified" all of my imaginings into one piece, and even this doesn't do that, but it's kind of a first step in collecting and putting together all the pieces in my head. Where was I? Oh, yeah, so there I am, just staring at her, and imagining staring into her soul, and my weird mind just did the rest. Oh, and me having an avid interest in things space related really helped me put down my thoughts. I just used my knowledge of space as metaphors, linked them to what I feel when I look at pictures of space and think about what it is, and used it as characterization for our beloved space pony :3 I feel I should also mention I'd never really looked at friendshipocalypse's gallery before this, and I'd just finished giving it a real good once over, and I was probably feeling really inspired by that as well. I dunno, my mind is just really weird. I like it that way.
