With the pillow fort finished, you look at Sunrise with a smile. You built the fort in a lonely corner of the play place, clearly meant for technology-loving kids.
"Sunny!" You point at the TV that was newly hooked up.
"You want to watch TV?" You nod. He gets up to find the remote and as he turns it on, he notices your fists quickly waving happily. "What do you want to watch, little one?" Without a single moment of silence, you respond.
"Ponies!" you exclaim.
"Ponies?" Sunrise repeats. You nod and point to the TV, where there were a list of kids movies being shown by their cover. Following your finger with his eyes, he sees what you are pointing at.
"Ponies!" you say once more. You hear him giggle as he turns on the new generation My Little Pony movie.
"Do you want some snacks?" You gasp.
"Snackies!"
"I'll take that as a yes!" Sunrise leaves you alone for a moment to get some cut fruit, Puffs, and Cheez-itz for you. While you are alone, you look around the inside of the pillow fort. It blocked out some of the light, but it was widely bright. Lost in though, Sunrise sits next to you with the snacks.
"Ready to press play?" he asks.
"Yessie! Ponies! Ponies!" You giggle.

Taking in a small handful of mixed fruit, you watch the My Little Pony movie. In your hand, there are blueberries, raspberries, and sliced strawberries. You look into the bowl of fruit, you see you missed the kiwis! Quickly eating what you first grabbed, you take some kiwis. How dare they not be in your first handful? You got a bright idea! What if you mixed Puffs with kiwis? You look at Sunrise before reaching for the container of Puffs.
"Oh, sorry!" he says, as he brings the container closer to you.
"Tankies!" The Puffs, you noticed, were really yummy!

The ponies were at the unicorn town of Bridlewood when the pegasus queen enters to bring Zipp and Pipp home. You were starting to feel a little sleepy, but keep watching the movie with Sunrise while you eat all the snacks. After sitting still for such a long time, you crawl and roll around. Seeing you moving around and being bored, Sunrise gets up and grabs a box of crayons and some colouring books. Of course, you grab the My Little Pony colouring book, even though it has the other ponies on it and not the ponies in the movie you were watching. He watches as you start colouring, noticing you go from colouring to watching the movie every few seconds.
"Do you know who that is?" Sunrise asks, pointing to a pony you were colouring.
"Mhms! Dats Pwincess Twilight! Duh Pwincess uhf Frenship!" You knew all of this characters, and stimmed happily when Sunrise showed interest in what you were colouring.

A while later, the movie ends and a lot of the pages in one of the colouring books being coloured. You yawn, clearly tired.
"Nudder movie!" you say. Sunrise goes back to the list of movies and let's you pick another one. You point to the Lion King, and it starts playing. You lie on your back to watch the movie and grab for some more fruit when you feel that the bowl is empty! Looking at Sunrise with sad eyes, he takes the hint and grabs the bowls to refill them. Yawning again, you try to make the pillow fort darker so you can sleep. None of your ideas work, until you see a light switch not too far from where the fort was!
"Sunny might be seepy, too!" you say to yourself. With this, you walk towards the light switch by the security station. Turning off the lights, you walk back to the pillow fort and fall asleep, not even paying attention to the movie.
