Winter Wishday is just around the corner, and Zipp has got everything under control. She's always prided herself on her ability to read ponies, and every year, she always finds the perfect gifts. This year, she's already found and obtained a well thought out gift for every member of her family and friends... except for her sister. But shopping for Pipp is going to be a cinch! After all, nopony knows you like your older sister!

A (late) Secret Santa gift for Corejo on discord. Sorry about the delays on this - I hope you enjoy!

Hitch never expected he would be here, making friends with the pegasi and unicorns. Yet here he is, for better or for worse, and in this moment, he takes the opportunity to think back to his past. Everything that has he's encountered has made him the pony he is - how could any of these other ponies possibly understand that?

Pipp, however, might just understand more than he realizes.
