Here's a story that took on a life of its own. I had a vector of Shoeshine handy and thought, "What can I do with this pony?" Very little fan trivia about her, but a card in the official game said that she watches out for Fluttershy's animals while the latter is away on an adventure. So I thought this conflict would be very natural.





But then I realized that I've been shifting the spotlight away from Pinkie a lot lately. I needed to get her involved. So, true to her character, she escalated the situation to where I was adding a lot more ponies than originally intended. It's a example of how characters can write themselves.







So I hope you all have a good weekend and enjoy tomorrow's episode!
