Lyra: Say, Bon-Bon? Have you ever thought about moving?
Bon-Bon: What?
Lyra: You know, moving away from Ponyville.
Bon-Bon: Why? Are you trying to get rid of me?
Lyra: Oh no. I was just wondering.
Bon-Bon: Lyra, Ponyville is where my business is. I can’t just drag it around behind me. If I moved to another small town I’d have to start all over again. And if I moved to a big city I’d be driven out of business by competition. I know because that’s exactly what I would do.
Lyra: What about, like, franchising and chains?
Bon-Bon: I suppose that’s possible somewhere down the road. And sure, I’d have to at least move temporarily to help get it started. But I’d have to have a lot of money stored up. And that’s just not happening anytime soon. If ever. Why do you ask? I thought you loved Ponyville.
Lyra: Oh I do! I was just curious, you know, about the future.
Bon-Bon: That’s a lo~ng ways away. I’m focused more on the foreseeable future right now.
Lyra: Oh, okay.
