Ilya watched, fascinated, as the theme song played. "I love the colors. Everything is just so... cheerful. Oh!" he exclaimed as Pinkie Pie was briefly on screen. "That's the one they had a plush toy of - wait, why do people at SHIELD have pony toys?"

That makes him grin. Apparently, there's a My Little Pony fan on SHIELD's staff, but Ilya's not about to judge them. It's a cute show, and he settles against Dolemeck to watch, smiling. "This is the best date ever, Dolemeck. I mean it." And it was - Dolemeck had pulled him right out of his misery and given him a chance to dork out over a TV show like, well, like a normal teenager. It's perfect in its' simplicity, and everything is wonderful.
