Sweet Pop


This is a Twinkle Eyed Pony, which means she has sparky jewels instead of normal eyes. These jewels are lapidated in a octahedral shape, with a pinkish hue. This gemstone is unlikely a diamond. Pink diamonds are extremely expensive. And corundum (ruby and sapphire) is probably not the case either. I allow myself to conclude that this pony's eyes are made of an ordinary transparent polymer.



But the problem with this pony, and with all Twinkle Eyed Ponies, is her eye sight. No matter how pretty and chic it may be, faceted eyes on a horse are not efficient. This is not the compound eye of an arthropod. This is not a normal, round and transparent cornea. This is a fake jewel, and this pony sees the world through a fake pink jewel, which amounts to her frivolity. Fortunately for her, she compensates this sight issue with popsicles. Here is her picture:



Double popsicles for a stereo taste, multiplied by six (three in each side of this pony's bottom), makes twelve popsicles, one for each hours of the day. The good thing is diabetes is extremely rare in horses.



This is a pegasus pony, but considering this pony's weight, 91g, and the wings' area, 8cm2 each, he would have to flap the wings 2100 times per second to be able to fly, a value that exceeds the two-winged fly wingbeat. But this wingbeat speed is impossible for this pony's metabolism, which makes her the pegasus-equivalent of a penguin, with obsolete, merely decorative wings. However, the inefficient wings, as well as the inefficient eyes, look nice on her, as well as on her cousins Masquerade and Whizzer, who suffer from exactly the same inefficiency syndrome. 



The poor eye sight and small wings make this pony clumsy, but undeniably cute.
