I tried to strike a balance between depicting Willow and Mary in a crowd and spending several weeks drawing it... the end result, the addition of a couple characters to either side as if sitting along a bench. Not perfect, but hopefully it gets the idea across. I kind of imagined them on the top of the bleachers anyway.

As for the girls on either side, it was an opportunity to show off rarely seen characters or add some cameos, but for some reason I just wanted to show some random characters instead. So I did! I like how they turned out.
