In one of Ponyville's many parks, Starlight Glimmer and Maud Pie worked on designing new friendship kites. As they folded and glued and taped and measured and cut, Starlight started to sing.
"With some bits for paper and string,
You can make the flyingest thing!
With your hooves on the ground you're a bird in fliiiiiiight!
With your teeth holding tight to the string of your kite!"
As she sang, a dozen fillies and colts showed up, all carrying their own kites; some of them had their big brothers and sisters or parents with them. The newly arrived ponies all joined in Starlight's song as their kites flew up into the bright blue sky.
"Oh, oh, oh
Let's fly a pony kite!
Up to the Cloudsdale heights!
Let's fly a pony kite
Hey look, there's Soarin!
Up with the pegasi!
Up, with a happy sigh!
Oh, let's fly pony kites!"
"Does that happen a lot here?" Maud asked. "Ponies randomly breaking into song? Because I thought that was just a Pinkie Pie thing."
Starlight laughed. "Welcome to Ponyville, Maud."
Maud smiled faintly.
Pinkie popped up out of nowhere, flying a kite shaped like a stylized mouse head. "You know," she said conversationally, "that was a really contrived way to get around the whole, y'know..." She waved a hoof vaguely.
"Get around what?" Starlight asked.
"Nevermind!"
