I hope you don't mind, Touko. Silver was born to parents who hated the thought ofhaving a filly. They pushed her so hard, when she was in Fillygarten, they had her taking foalth grade math. They wanted her to be an accountant, like them. So, one day in Fillygarten, she was writing a story. Then a writing cutie mark appeared on her flank! She zoomed home to show her parents, but the beat the living crap out of her because she didn't get a math cutie mark. She left home to becom a writer.
