Out of her brood of three. Kite Runner being Dash’s favorite kid is probably the worst kept secret of all time. This doesn’t spell out neglect for Cherry and Tide. But Kite taps into nearly every vain fantasy Dash ever had before she even fell in love with Dumbbell. “If I ever have a kid, my kid is gonna be awesome!”
 
Yeah Dash’s ambitions were never complex but still. Cherry isn’t the fastest of flyers, she’s actually pretty low when ranked among her peers. Hightide can’t fly at all. But Kite can fly fast, fly good, and has her own version of the Sonic Rainboom. They also love to get into dangerous situations because when is that ever not fun? Needless to say Rainbow Dash went full soccer mom mode after Kite was born.
