Since I don't have the internet to go digging for it and see for myself, how were you referenced, exactly? That's really cool.
So first you need to know about two characters: Roarke and Zaid.
Roarke is a badflank bounty-hunter that travels with the Noble Jury (Rainbow Dash and her friends (not the Mane 6!)) that are going to the dark side of the world to fix it. She recently stole a ship from the Lounge, a group of once-slave traders over the Frozen Sea. (The corrupt leader of that group was defeated a few chapters ago.) Ships of the Lounge are... I'll describe it after I describe Zaid.
Zaid is one of the characters made for crazy antics, and he says all sorts of absurd things that keep the Jurists laughing. He also has a habit of getting on Roarke's nerves regularly. Now, when he saw Roarke's lounge ship, this is the conversation that went on.
"So, what's it name?" Zaid asked.
"It does not have a name," Roarke said.
"Pfft! Get out of town!" Zaid smirked. "It's gotta have a name!"
"All this vessel provides is utility," Roarke said. "When the situation calls for more than two members of the Jury to split up and explore a region, we can once again rely on more than just Rainbow Dash to fly."
"The cultist has a point," Josho droned. "It's bad buckin' luck to pilot something without a name."
"Forgive me if I don't share your superstitious sentiment."
"I know!" Zaid grinned wide. "
Whizzball!"
Roarke turned with folded ears, practically hissing at the stallion. "It... shall
not... be called...
Whizzball."
"Don't be so silly! I mean look at it!" Zaid pointed. "It's a ball! And it whizzes!"
"And you're a stallion and you
leak. What's the point?"
"I'd be insulting the grand history of aviation if I called it anything else!" Zaid smiled.
"I'll be right back," Josho said, trotting off with a smirk. "Blondie and Dr. Bellesmith are going to want to see Whizzball now that it's in Floydien's hangar."
"It is
not Whizzball!" Roarke actually hollered.
"Nancy Jane and Whizzball!" Zaid chanted, pumping a hoof in the air. "Together at last!"
"Nnnnngh..." Roarke leaned into the cockpit seat, looking around. "Where's the self destruct mechanism...?"
