My Love always and forever Sombra (sombra needed)

(Were do we start? Before or after Nyx was enslaved?)

(Of course. I suggest we start where Sombra first finds out about dark magic. Unless you want to start at the beginning, where they meet. What do you think?)

The black unicorn trotted out of the library, in deep thought. He had just discovered an interesting book in the back of the library, unused, dusty, and full of spells and tips. The magical potential is astounding, Sombra said to himself. Just think of how much more powerful I'd be with those spells memorized. I could help protect everypony in the Crystal Empire. Perhaps even in Equestria. He hadn't realized that Nyx was there until he bumped into her. "Oh, sorry," he apologized. "I should have watched where I was going." The stallion gave her a sweet smile.

(It's fine. Hey, whenever I have low muse I always type three sentences minimum. It helps and it's not too hard. :) )

"Nyx," he dipped his head respectfully, grazing her muzzle with his completely black horn as he did so. If you looked closely, you could see the small smile on his face as he did so. The stallion looked up at her, keeping his head in the same position, centimeters away from her lips. "Good to see you again. I'm glad to see a friendly face after all that time I spent in the library," he said softly.

(Yes.)

"Oh, this?" He pulled out his book, taking a step back and lifting his head. The title read Black Magic. "I found this at the back of the library. It looked really old," Sombra explained, "but it contains spells that I've never seen before. Really powerful spells. I thought that if I learned them I could protect the empire and perhaps teach them to the guards too, so we can stay safe. Also it's really interesting."

"Nyx, don't worry. I'll be fine. Besides, why waste a perfectly good book of spells? I already tried a few simple ones, and although it's a bit harder to channel my hatred, I believe with practice these can become safe to use and beneficial to Equestria," he replied nonchalantly. The stallion touched his muzzle to hers briefly, smiling wryly, "And besides, this is me we're talking about. I think I can handle a little forbidden magic without it getting out of hand. Don't you think?"

(Advanced. Heh. That's funny. I'm only normal to semi-advanced, nowhere near a high level. I've still got a while to go and find myself making a variety of silly mistakes.
No, it doesn't bother me at all. You're not the worst I've seen and you make your posts very easy to understand, so I have no problem with it. To me as long as both RPers have good ideas and can express it, the RP will be successful. :) And you certainly have good ideas. Hmm... Perhaps you'd like me to give you some lessons? They're pretty fun and help improve your writing.)

"I'll be fine, Nyx," he repeated softly although she'd already left. The unicorn sighed, then put his book away, trotting towards his house, a few blocks from the Crystal Palace. It was an ordinary house for an ordinary stallion. Unlike Nyx, he wasn't royal, so he wasn't allowed to live too close to the Crystal Palace, making it more convenient for him to check out books. Nopony was allowed to sleep the night in the Crystal Library, after all.
Once inside, he immediately went to his table, continuing to read.

(Alrightie, TobiornotTobi! Totally gonna remember your screen name so I can invite you. Totally. XD Me: *has major issues remembering names*)

Sombra read on and on, until his eyes hurt and he felt as though his brain would explode with all the excess information. "This black magic is really complicated. And dangerous. I hope I was right when I told Nyx I'd be fine," he observed darkly. "Oh well. Nothing much I can do today. I should probably get to bed. A busy, busy day is ahead of me." With that, the book was shut, the candle blown out, and the exhausted stallion off to bed.

Sombra had a difficult time falling asleep — the spells continued to haunt his consciousness and he could not brush aside the dark thoughts building in his head, a side-effect of black magic. They were simple and not too bad, like robbing a foal of their candy, but the part that bothered the unicorn was that the wrongheadedness was slowly melting away, that it felt not all that bad. But it was soon over, and he slipped into the wonderful land of dreamworld.

(Reeaaaally low muse. XD)

Light filtered in through his window, blasting the sleeping stallion in the face and dissolving his dream like mist. Sombra groaned, throwing the covers over his head, but the pleasure of sleep had already slipped away. Sighing in defeat, he got out of bed, and readied himself for the day ahead.
