“Mama?”

“Yes darling?”

“How much longer do we-oof!-do we have to walk in the snow for?”

“Don’t worry dear. We’re almost over to Sweet Apple Acres.”

“Why don’t we just telel-telelep-poof over to the barn?”

“Well, transporting 3 bodies to one place at the same time is a difficult spell to master.”

“Oh…..Mama?”

“Yes dear?”

“I don’t like the snow”

Oh Oddity, the snow is wonderful.”

“It sticks to my paws”

“Seeing all the white cover the ground like an enormous gown”

“It’s cold and thick”

“It’‘s very beautiful and inspiring.”

“And it’s deep! It’s up to my scarf Mama!”

“Trust me kid, you’ve got it easy. Once, I had snowfall that went over my head. I had to tunnel through the ground like a mole to get into the town center.”

“Really??”

“….Capper, was this perchance when you were younger than Oddity?”

“(blushes)…Well, it was a lot of snow for a small kitten.”

(playful eye roll) “It won’t seem too deep forever Oddity. You’ll grow taller and it won’t seem that deep.”

“But when?”

“Soon enough.”

“….. That’s not-oof!-That’s not soon enough.”

“Trust me darling, it will be. Now come on dear, we’ve got a Hearth’s Warming party attend.”

Haven’t drawn Oddity much so decided to draw a baby Odd with her family.

Oddity used to be the type of kid who would say anything that’s on her mind and probably talk a mile a minute. And probably also persistently ask “why?” about everything.

Rarity seems to take it in stride. Capper likes to tell her exaggerated and half-true stories to fuel her curiousity.

First time drawing Capper. Don’t know if drawing him from the side was a good choice for a first time.

And hark! A background! It’s a Christmas miracle!
