As the muffled sound of running water begins to emanate from the wet room, you decide to ask Moonflower about her time with Princess Luna.

Moonflower: "She was super nice! I kinda forgot she was a princess after a while, but she didn't seem to mind."

You ask if they talked about anything aside from the lesson.

Moonflower: "We didn't really have time to. The lesson went by super fast! Oh, but she did ask me to tell her about myself and my friends. So I told her about our adventures!"

Somehow, you find yourself wondering what kind of adventures were made known to Her Royal Highness. In response, the bat pony wraps her hooves around you, and nuzzles into your neck.

Moonflower: "Heeheehee…! Maybe I got a lil' carried away with some o' the details."

Then, the young Oracle offers you an honest smile.

Moonflower: "But that's okay! Princess Luna said that it gave her a better idea of who I am. And knowin' me well's important if I'm gonna be helpin' her with dream duty."

A thought crosses your mind. You ask Moonflower whether or not Princess Luna might have borne witness to your own dream. After all, there were plenty of details there to see.

Moonflower: "Oooh, I'm not sure! She made it sound like it was gonna be jus' me, and I don't remember feelin' her presence there. Ya think I shouldn't be usin' my powers for this kinda stuff, jus' in case?"

With a grin, you say that you can't blame her for having fun with it. You certainly had a good time, in the end.

Moonflower: "Heehee, me too! Ya got super fun dreams. Oh, that's right! I noticed that your uh… soul thingy that says how you're feelin' in the dream world, it was a bit darker when I got there. That's why I started with you. You doin' okay?"

You nod, and thank your affectionate friend with an extra hug for her concern. You admit that your encounter with diamond dogs the day before left somewhat of a bruise on your ego, but you assure her that you feel much better this morning.

Moonflower: "Oh yeah! I remember now. Aww, I really didn't know it meant that much to you. I'm startin' to see what the Princess meant when she said that dreams are like doorways to a pony's true feelings!"

You give that idea some thought, then turn your attention to the wet room door as it opens. A freshly dried Apple Basket appears from behind it, then rejoins you on the living room carpet.

Apple Basket: "That's better! So, uh, what's that 'bout doorways to a pony's true feelin's? Should I be worried?"

Moonflower: "Nuh uh, you're fine! The Princess also said that dreams can be shaped by how the body feels, too. Kinda like when you can sometimes hear somepony's voice in your dreams when they're tryin'a wake you up."

Apple Basket: "Huh. I never thought of it like that, but I guess it makes sense. Been havin' a lot more of these touchy-feely kinda dreams since I started sharin' a bed with you gals."

Moonflower: "Heeheehee… my bad!"
