#verse / one day soon i'll hold you like to sun holds the moon

Hayley’s hand immediately comes up to Buffy’s shoulder as she tries to sit up with a gashing, bleeding wound. The smell of blood is pungent, but it does little to make Hayley flinch. She’s had the rather pleasant experience of tasting The Slayer’s blood, but she also has an extraordinary grip on her self control. ❛ Unlucky for that witch bitch, the people of the French Quarter like doing things a little differently. ❜

Her fangs sink into her own wrist, drawing blood, and tilting it against Buffy’s mouth. The wound will heal in a blink — she’s the kind of woman who doesn’t like leaving things to fate. ❛ You don’t have to run yourself down trying to help when you have people who will back you up. Consider the Crescent Pack your calvary, should you need it again.❜

Listening to Send me the moon by Sara Bareilles the other day my mind jumped to how well it fits Joe and Nicky. 😍

Posting this in case someone feels inspired to write a fiction (I imagine that each verse could be a chapter) with these two amazing characters.

Send me the Moon

Holding my breath

Last one I've got left 'till I see you

Deliver my heart

With the pieces and parts of me left

Every last day

Seemed to carry the weight of a lifetime

Watch from the ground

As the gold fluttered down from the sky

Sweet sun

Send me the moon

Empty the skies out

Bringing me one step closer to you

Send it soon

And I will breathe in, breathe out

'Til you come in and out

Of view

Of view

Inches away from you

Scared what I'll take from you, darling

I can live with your ghost

If you say that's the most that I'll get

Darkness to light

Moved from day into night to be near you

Still here I stand

I am sinking like sand in your sea

Sweet sun

Send me the moon

Empty the skies out

Bringing me one step closer to you

Send it soon

And I will breathe in, breathe out

'Til you come in and out

Of view

You already do

Never you mind

Where the evening should find us together

Distance can't take

What is hidden here safe in my chest

I'll wait for the day

When we finally say now or never

'Til then I'll be here wanting more

As I settle for atmosphere

Sweet sun

Send me the moon

Empty the skies out

Bringing me one step closer to you

Send it soon

And I will breathe in, breathe out

'Til you come in and out

I will breathe in, breathe out

'Til you come in

I will breathe in, breathe out

'Til you come in and out

Of view

Of view

This is no-shit one of the most emotionally moving songs I have ever heard in five decades of burning oxygen on this benighted planet. It’s a fan song for a cartoon friendship horse and it makes me cry in real life almost every time I hear it.

Fate has been cruel and order unkind How can I have sent you away? The blame was my own; the punishment, yours The harmony's silent today But into the stillness I'll bring you a song And I will your company keep Till your tired eyes and my lullabies Have carried you softly to sleep

Verse 1: Once did a pony who shone like the sun Look out on her kingdom and sigh She smiled and said, "Surely, there is no pony So lovely and so well beloved as I" So great was her reign and so brilliant her glory That long was the shadow she cast Which fell dark upon the young sister she loved And grew only darker as days and nights passed

Chorus: Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine And rest now in moonlight's embrace Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth Through cloud, and through sky, and through space Carry the peace and the coolness of night And carry my sorrow in kind Luna, you're loved so much more than you know Forgive me for being so blind

Verse 2: Soon did that pony take notice that others Did not give her sister her due And neither had she loved her as she deserved She watched as her sister's unhappiness grew But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly Takes hold of the mind of its host And that foolish pony did nothing to stop The destruction of one who had needed her most

Chorus: Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine And rest now in moonlight's embrace Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth Through cloud, and through sky, and through space Carry the peace and the coolness of night And carry my sorrow in kind Luna, you're loved so much more than you know May troubles be far from your mind And forgive me for being so blind

Instrumental

Bridge: The years now before us Fearful and unknown I never imagined I'd face them on my own May these thousand winters Swiftly pass, I pray I love you; I miss you All these miles away

Ending: May all your dreams be sweet tonight Safe upon your bed of moonlight And know not of sadness, pain, or care And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there Sleep...

never underestimate fandom creators bc “bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth, through cloud and through sky and through space, carry the peace and the coolness of night and carry my sorrow in kind” sounds like victorian poetry but it’s a line from a my little pony fan song
