Taking The Reins

by Casketbase77
Even at a family bakery, retirements happen and ownerships change hooves. The transition hasn't been an easy one for Pound Cake, but an elderly regular customer might understand responsibility-related stress better than he knows.

Retirement can be difficult for some ponies. This is true whether its at a family bakery or a world famous stunt team, and whether you're the outgoing old boss or the worried new owner. Ponyville has the curious habit of bringing the right ponies together, and on one thankless Thursday morning of sibling stress, it does just that.

Old mares can't learn new tricks, but they can sure teach them.


This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.
