Le gasp! She seems to be afraid of BonBon! But fear not, for Detective Lyra is on the case! Sort of.

Wait, if everything is closed then why did we open up at all?
Why, because that's what the script says! Plus, some ponies need to get their daily sugar dose, and the Cakes are closed too right now.

Also fun fact: The 9th panel came out rather creepy on the first try (a stare that would legitimately make anypony turn around and leave the shop without a sound), so I had to remake it. Damn it Bons, I know you want to be alone with Lyra but that's going too far!

Next on Heartstrings:
Now to watch these two and try not to get a heart attack.

Poor Bon-Bon, children are afraid of you and you can't do anything about it.

I feel a sorry for Bon Bon. If children are scared of you for no immediately obvious reason, something's generally wrong.

BonBon opened because the cakes are closed and pony society is fueled by sugar. If you open, ponies will come. It's only a matter of time now

I work the graveyard shift, and I find I just call when I got up "morning," even though it was eight in the evening, and say good night at eleven in the morning.  Although at first, it can be a bit of a mind twister.

Meanwhile, outside the candy shop ...

You think Tootsie'll ask her?

Of course she will.

And you're sure that's the one who played the guitar last night?

Positive. Who else could have played it?

Well, there is my uncle ...

Dunno if summer break is canon in Equestria though, can't recall if it ever occurred in the show (unless it was in the last dozens of episodes that I haven't watch yet).

pony-fanatic In reply to TriteBristle [2014-06-23 17:38:40 +0000 UTC]

I doubt it's a thing in Equestria. After being forced to take a political thinking type class for my computer science degree, I know that summer vacation is super bad for making learning happen. Ideally, it should be replaced with the last 3-5 school days of each month being only mandatory for students who are falling behind in the material. This encourages teachers to teach better and students to student better so they can both get more time off, and gives students who fall behind because of family matters or illness or whatever time to catch up. Besides, after the first couple of weeks, summer break gets kinda boring because we aren't doing anything which makes the whole experience generally unsatisfying.

Tharag In reply to TriteBristle [2014-02-25 16:01:05 +0000 UTC]

Well, if nothing else Ponyville is a rural farming community, where a summer break is usually desirable so the kids can help their parents tend the crops and do other necessary chores.


Also, we do know that Babs Seed's visit lasted for a whole week around the Summer Harvest Festival, further suggesting the existence of a summer break.

Tharag In reply to TriteBristle [2014-02-25 19:09:36 +0000 UTC]

True, but as a rule ponies and Equestria seem to be mostly like our own world (specifically US culture, where the show is marketed first and foremost), except where explicitly mentioned otherwise.  So Summer breaks from school would seem more likely than not.

TriteBristle In reply to Tharag [2014-02-25 22:29:32 +0000 UTC]

I might consider it in the future, but it's more convenient for the story if this is a school week, you'll see in the next chapter why.

TriteBristle In reply to Tharag [2014-02-25 20:11:44 +0000 UTC]

So unless it's mentioned otherwise, I'm free to put whatever I want into my alternative pony universe. :3 So until they make it canon, I'm free to not care about the concept of summer break in Ponyville.

Tharag In reply to TriteBristle [2014-02-26 00:48:23 +0000 UTC]

Well, of course you are.  Sorry if I sounded to argumentative. Even if I point out contradictions, I'm a firm believer that every author has the right to tell their story in their own way.
