It's not a nice life, the lives they live. Always on the verge of survival, of being so close to the edge. Of being in a lost sense of perspective, that does things to ponies. To ponies who have nothing to lose, but everything to gain.

The best things in life are the ones spent with somepony you care about, even when sometimes those times aren't all that great. Even when those times really are awful.
