Lyra Heartstrings was one of those ponies who stood out in Ponyville. She did not seek attention, nor is she some super hyper pony that garnered it. It was her strange hobbies that made other ponies think oddly of her. Strange fascination with creatures that stood on two legs, weird obsessions with things called “hands.” It's these weird obsessions that make Lyra stand out in town in a bad way. There was only one pony in town that could tolerate the mare. Her best friend, Bon Bon. But even Bon Bon has her limits. So when an accident sends Lyra to the hospital, Bon Bon ponders about the future of their friendship.
