Jasmine finds a fence to sit on, leading to concerns about her safety and the fence's strength.

“Now here’s something that I can test my weight on,” thought Jasmine heading to a fence and sitting on it.
“What is she doing?” asked Starlight.
“She’s sitting on the fence, she’ll break it!” replied Bright Eyes before she and the group rush over.
“Hello, girls,” called Jasmine.
“Jasmine, that fence isn’t built for your weight. In fact, it’s not meant to support any kind of weight on it,” protested Bright Eyes.
“Oh it’s fine. It seems to be built out of a strong wood or I’d certainly agree with you all,” assured Jasmine.
“We’ve never even thought to try it ourselves because of our fears of breaking it,” explained Bright Eyes.
“Well problem solved and the fence still remains in one piece. Come on, have a seat,” said Jasmine.
“I don’t know. Even if it can hold her weight, I doubt it could hold any normal six ponies let alone ones with our weight,” responded Melody.
“I’m sure the boys would like it,” added Jasmine.
“We do truly have metal railings that we could sit on,” noted Sweetheart.
“That could work. They don’t give splinters like fences can,” replied Bright Eyes.
“Wait a second, the fence IS reinforced. It’s a metal fence covered in wood,” explained Starlight.
“Only it’s not real wood. This place has been here for five years yet no signs of splintering on the fence,” stated Bright Eyes.
“Works for me, let’s have a seat,” declared Patch. *They all sit down as the boy ponies approach*
“Here we go, guys,” said Ace. *They arrive at the fence*
“I didn’t know you had it in you, Sweetheart,” said Teddy, giving Sweetheart’s rump a gentle slap.
“Well we all truly decided to sit here after we learned that it was safe,” said Sweetheart blushing.
“You know, Teddy, I don’t think any of us knew you had that much love of her in you,” added Lancer.
“Kyle, I think I died and went to pony heaven,” said Darren.
“Jasmine sure has a large rump doesn’t she?” teased Bob.
“The biggest I’ve seen,” agreed Darren.
“It’s sure showing this fence a thing or two, huh?” questioned Jasmine.
“I’ll say,” answered Darren.
“Bright Eyes, you’re looking beautiful today,” noted Lancer.
“Thanks, Lancer,” responded Bright Eyes.
“Is it possible we could be boyfriend and girlfriend?” asked Lancer.
“Gee, I don’t know. I don’t really have that much affection towards you,” shrugged Bright Eyes.
“You and I love your pudge though,” protested Lancer.
“I guess that’s true, Lance. I’ll think about it,” stated Bright Eyes.
“How about you, Melody?” asked Ace.
“Ace, give it a rest. I’m not in love with you,” said Melody sternly.
“Yeah, she’s in love with me,” added Bob.
“What? Bob, I only gave you a good time the other day to make you happy. I’m sorry but I don’t love either of you,” replied Melody.
“Yeah, but I love you so shouldn’t that mean you’d love me back?” suggested Bob.
“Bob, love doesn’t always work that way,” warned Melody.
“It’s okay, Bob. You can be my admirer. I have plenty to love,” assured Jasmine.
“I guess I’ll have to, given that my true love won’t love me back,” sighed Bob.
“It could change, you never know,” advised Melody.
“That goes for all of us, boys. After all, I had a sort of moment with Lancer before,” finished Bright Eyes.
“We’ll hold on to that hope dearly because these are the girls we want for the rest of our lives,” thought Ace.
