….it would make me happy if you continue to look after our little ones. Just as I do. It would have made me happy…if you had not drove me away. Heartbreak overtook what happiness I had with you. (@mlp_StLightning )

….. ….. I don’t know what can tenement the pain that you caused me, @mlp_StLightning . What I do know is that us getting back together…Is an impossibility.

*She looks away from @mlp_StLightning * There is no courage or cowardice in my decision. There is only a feeling…or lack thereof. I do not…feel a desire to become your wife again. If you had expressed this desire for redemption years ago, I may have felt SOMETHING.

But alas…I don’t feel a desire to return to your side, @mlp_StLightning . I forgive you…But I do not wish to be your wife. Friends, yes… But lovers…no. As the kids may say, that ship has sailed. And sunk.

*Ruby reaches a claw to @mlp_StLightning * I have made my decision.

Thank you, @mlp_StLightning . I will….remember that.

*she nods to @mlp_StLightning *

I….. of course. *she lends her claw to @mlp_StLightning *

*she smiles back at @mlp_StLightning *

*Quietly (in voice, not in footsteps), Ruby approaches @mlp_StLightning ‘s forge and lightly raps on the roof*

Good afternoon, @mlp_StLightning .

Happy Neighborly Day. *she smiles back at @mlp_StLightning , unveiling two surprises. One, the kids come running out from behind her, running to their papa. And the second is something she used to cook for him on Neighborly Days prior to when they broke up*

Yes….it took much of my will to come here…and the pleadings of our little ones. And…for a while, @mlp_StLightning . I have been doing some self reflection. And I’ve concluded that when we broke up, I…became so distant with you. More than I had any right to.

Go on, little ones. *she nudges the children, who go into @mlp_StLightning ‘s cabin first* *She follows suit* When the fog cleared from my mind, I began to have…dreams. Dreams of us, back together again. Living a happy life. Before, I forgave you. But never quite believed I did.

And I want to take a chance, @mlp_StLightning . A chance to live a happy life with you again. But if it’s not meant to be, I understand. I can live with whatever answer you may have. I’ll have solace knowing that I put my suppressed feelings out there.

*she lowers her head to @mlp_StLightning ‘s eye level* Lightning…come what may. Day or night. Calm or tempest. My heart will be in the same place.

*Ruby smiles as tears form in her eyes. She happily brings herself in to embrace @mlp_StLightning * Till fate parts us, my heart.

…..@mlp_StLightning …*sniff* ((AFK for now. Happy turkey day. Gobble gobble. 🦃))

*is just reeking of feminine beauty*

*player remains undecided about going to Mastodon*
