Might be worth adding to the trivia section that in Fall Weather Friends, her number in the Running of the Leaves was 42, possibly a reference to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trillogy, in which the number is supposedly the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything. It is, essentially, a "magic" number. It's also said that the question is "What is six times seven?" (try other number bases...). Seven is a number of great significance in theological and magical philosophy, so basically her number is a magic number, and the quotient of six (the Mane 6) times seven (a magic number itself), if you are sufficiently well read to be able to do math in number bases other than 10.
