Buddy in the guest lodge room as Tiny calls him, already suspicious: ...What?

Tiny: How do you spray enough water to cover a building as big as, I dunno... a station, without a firehose?

Buddy:

Buddy: ... DID YOU SET THE STATION ON FIRE?!

LET THE SHINY ANGST BEGIN!!!

I never wrote a human AU fanfiction but I'm extremely tempted now.

I'm imagining early teenaged Shiny just suffering in Adventure Camp, like on the floor in the fetal position bawling. None of the camp workers take her seriously, telling her all girls have pain on their periods and she needs to suck it up. But Tiny and Annie believe Shiny, and they're more than ready to fight for her. They bring this to the Conductor, who immediately believes them and screams at the staff for downplaying it.

Shiny goes home early, there's tests done, eventually the results come back that Shiny has severe endometriosis. Of course, a terrible symptom is that she's likely infertile and will be unable to have her own kids. And out of all the bad news she hears that day, that hits the hardest.
