IMPOSSIBLY happy Seeker and Bingo, "bwuh?" Benchmark, snooty as hell Snow Shimmer and Sun Shimmer, and pushed-to-the-frozen-limit Birdy.
"Why?" Birdy seems to be thinking. "Why am I stuck in this story with these lunatics? Excepting Bingo, of course. Who is a lunatic who is not technically in the story."
It might look like Seeker is squeeing over Bench, but he's actually squeeing over Sun Shimmer. This will lead to TEH PONY DRAMAZ later. How I do love writing TEH PONY DRAMAZ! >:D
