Cheesecake was wrongly designated a baby girl at his birth, but unfortunately he didn't realize this until he was a teenager and had since sort of run away from his family to be a circus clown. This little colt had a lot of trouble with his overly doting family, especially when they'd call him cutsie girly names that just always rubbed him the wrong way. Eventually, he did leave his family behind, and he was never sure why until he got in with a new crowd that taught him a lot about himself. It was only then that he returned home, only to see his family had a new baby! And a "real" colt this time! Needless to say, Cheese was just a tiny bit bitter and he decided to stick with his circus: the only family that knew who he really was. He didn't really, truly reconnect with his family until he was 18. They were absolutely relieved, and happy, and sad, and confused when Cheese randomly came back home after years of being gone, and they all had a tearful reunion. When Cheese did meet his little brother, he wasn't sure what would happen.
Linzer Torte was born premature. The first few months were ones of stress and anxiety as his parents wondered if he would even make it through the night. It was so close to being yet another one of Pinkie's losses, but Linzer pulled through. He's a bit smaller, but nonetheless perfectly normal and healthy! When he met his big brother, he was about three, and still quite small. He had never spoken, nor smiled, nor really played all that much. In fact that little guy seemed so afraid of everything and would scream and wail if he was forced to do anything out of his control. That is until Cheesecake came home. When Cheese held him, Linny's little face lit up with the biggest, and only-est smile his parents had ever seen. Linny changed after that. Although he would really only play with Cheesecake, it was a welcome change. The house was all the warmer, and it wasn't because Pinkie left the oven on to watch her boys play.
And the family FINALLY had the happy ending they always wanted! But…perhaps more surprises are on the way. Surprises only Party Favor knows about, and he's kept a tight lip about it for a long, long time.
