Every class has its resident dunce. Sometimes more than one of them. We've all seen it before: the idiots who make a ruckus whenever they can, sometimes making everyone else laugh, sometimes just to make themselves look bad. Not that they seem to care either way.
When faced with such a bond, one could say it's just "stupidity seeking out its own." In a way, perhaps they're right. Friendship works in mysterious ways.
That said, when the newest group of foals are brought under Cheerilee's care, she gets to see one such duo form among them: a mouthy joker named Snips, and a slow rascal named Snails. Two troublemakers bound in mischief, with no sign of either of them wanting to grow out of it.
This is their story... or at least some of it.

Holy shit that was really good.
fun times were had
Very sweet and funny. bravo. The scene transitions didn't always indicate passage of time so well for me, but i'm fighting off a cold, so it might be that.
Either way, I loved the final scene. It was perfect!
