The Things that Creep Around at Night [Private audio to Luna just before the 4th Wall went down]

[juniorganymedian]

[Jeeves doesn't particularly want to be seen at the moment as he's looking a little haggard. The nightmares he'd assured Luna were no problem have become problematic now that it would seem he's having different ones from the recurring one they'd had before the fight with the mare Nightmare in Ponyville. He'd never intended to actually call upon the Princess of Dreams, but he would be foolish to ignore her as a resource in this instance. It's very early morning - most would call it still night - when he contacts her.]

My apologies for any interruption to your regular duties, Your Royal Highness, but I wish to request an audience with you. Would you be available to meet at the top of the clock tower in Twilight Town sometime today?

[Jeeves gives her an incredibly deadpan look.]

Indeed, madam.

[Her lack of candor and verisimilitude are interesting, but not something he'll likely be able to explore in any great depth here. He has no desire to offend or otherwise annoy a woman he's just asked to creep about in his sleeping mind. As they are at something of an impasse and there is still some part of the night left according to his pocket watch, Jeeves moves to close the discussion.]

Perhaps a deeper understanding might be gained from the books in the Ponyville library. I should not wish to waste your time with trivialities when you have your duties to attend to. Thank you for meeting me. I believe I will sleep easier with your assistance. If there is something I might do to return the favor at any time, you need only ask.

[Was that some kind of veiled threat? What did she ever do to him? Now she's trying to recall exactly what books are in that library. Nothing older than a few years or younger than a few centuries should contain much...except for however Twilight Sparkle learned about her prophesied return in the first place, how did she do that? Ugh, she's going to have to ask Celestia.]

Of course. A good evening to thee.

[And she takes wing again. Jeeves, you have probably just disturbed and indeed somewhat annoyed the creeping woman.]
