Short Hand: Shining Armor: On Dating My Sister

Shining: "You know... Shepherd, I know it's a tall order but I want you to date my sister."

Shepherd: "I... Wha?"

Shining: "You've been keeping her from destroying the planet. We're clearly going to need you to keep doing that."

Shepherd: "That's going to be a full time job!"

Shining: smiles "There are a lot of perks and benefits?"

Shepherd: "In other words it's way too good to be true, like any dream job."

Shining: "Look: I will be the best wingstallion that ever existed for you and Twilight to get together. Because let's be honest: Nopony else is going to stand up to her as much as they need to!"

Shepherd: "And keep her from destroying the world?"

Shining: "Of course!"

Shepherd: "You do realize I'm mortal, right?"

Shining: "There are ways around that issue."

Shepherd: "Why do you have to make that sound so ominous?!"

Shining: smile "Welcome to Equestria."

This is a bit too "continue the Redfield bloodline" for my tastes...

But does Shining Armor have a zapping system?

It's interesting how you explore multiple ways Shining and Shepherd's relationship could go in Short Hand: amicable or clashing.

Honestly hope it goes amicable with the named stallion to named mare ratio in the show. Shepherd needs all the guy friends he can get.
