The Vinyl Scratch Tapes/Heartwarming

"Vinyl: Because you made it for me!"

"Spitfire: Well, eventually I had to leave for Flight School. We were both still pretty young at the time. Neither one of us had our Cutie Marks. When I told Vinyl I was moving, she didn't say anything. She acted like it didn't bother her at all. Tried to play it cool, I guess. So I ended up going to Cloudsdale to learn to fly. After I was there for a couple months, I got a letter from my parents saying Vinyl was in the hospital. I immediately freaked out and flew home. Octavia: Why was she in the hospital? Spitfire: That's exactly what I wanted to know. When I got there, I found out she'd broken her leg. I went right to her room and asked her what had happened. Apparently, she'd fallen out of a tree. She had climbed it, built some little "wings" for her hooves out of cardboard, and jumped out of it. She was trying to fly. Octavia: ... Spitfire: So I said, "Vinyl, that is without a doubt the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Why would you do something like that?" She said, "I wanted to go to Flight School. You have to fly to go to Flight School." As if it was just common sense or something. When I asked her why she wanted to go there, she was quiet for a minute. That was a first, by the way; seeing her quiet about anything. And she just looked up and said, "I wanted to see you again.""
