“Sugarcube, time ta wake up.”

Rainbow moved deeper into Applejack’s embrace, safety, and warmth.

“Sugarplum, my little rainbow?”

Rainbow trilled as she moved her rear legs, curling into a tighter ball.

“Rainbow Dash,” Applejack said firmly.

Rainbow grumbled and pulled back, yawning softly. “Why’d ya wake me? Ah was fightin’ a manticore and just suplexed it. The wonderbolts were so impressed,” she chuckled before she rolled to her hooves and stretched like a cat, groaning in pleasure.

“Well, somepony’s feelin’ goo- umph.”

Rainbow turned and jumped onto Applejack and rolled with her off the carpet, bumping into the table with a kiss.

“Heh, thanks. I so needed that. Now, your turn!” She grinned and licked her lips.

“N-no, just, wait a sec. Ah, well, ya told me a lot before ya slept in my forelimbs so, Ah’ve gotta admit somethin’.”

“Oh? Is it how awesome-” Rainbow saw the look in Applejack’s eyes and stopped her gloating, “and what would that be?” She asked climbing off and sitting, watching, waiting for Applejack to speak.

“Ah really wanted to be the mama first. Ah prayed ta the spirits, ancestors, even Celestia and Luna… then ta find out Ah’m nearly infertile. Ah…”

She lay on her back and looked at the flat wooden ceiling, remembering her youth.

“I really wanna carry the Apple name with a filly of my own. Any tribe’s fine with me, Ah just wanted help on the farm,” she sighed and rolled to her side facing Rainbow, “now with the orchard workin’ so much all Ah’ve gotta do is help buck a few trees and do a couple chores.

“I never thought I’d say it, but I’m gettin’ bored of farmin…”

“Wait, woah, woah, woah, wait… so I’m not gonna get you to shake until we’re done with this?”

Applejack growled.

“Woah, okay… fine, sorry,” Rainbow winced, “just fire ‘em and have the farm back. Or, have ‘em work only on Tuesdays to harvest zappers. Maybe they can help with the far parts of the orchard? I think all those work, do ‘em all!”

“It ain’t that easy; plenty’a ponies are workin’ full time-”

“There’s always work in town. They didn’t come from Canterlot to pick zappers, let ‘em get a part time job like every other pony.”

“Ah have a full time job-”

“But,” Rainbow interjected, “I love you and you have a farm!” She gestured to the window. “Reckon- er, I mean you have to be here, it’s your life. Like I belong in the air. C’mon, Fritter, Ah know you’re stressed, but it’s your farm; take charge! Grab the cloud by the cumulus and snap it away, own it,” she shouted proudly as she crossed her forelegs and forced her wings as open as she could.

“Rainbow, Ah dunno…”

“Look, it’s easy. What ya do is have ‘em work part time and rotate their sections into sectors in a grid. Using even the most basic system you can have them rotate around you and end up on zappers once a week, even give ‘em all a couple days off a week.”

“...That’s actually a great idea,” Applejack said, “you’re gonna weather manage the farm too?”

“Yeah, about that…”

“What?” Applejack asked sceptically.

“I, I don’t know if I wanna be full time weather manager. I mean, I still spend my time sleeping and exercising on shift. Not to mention that Flutterwing’s been a great helper and she’s ready to take over… I could just weather a couple days a week and when major stuff happens. I mean, with our zap apples savings we’ve got enough for me to not have to worry about makin’ the bits.”

“Sugarplum, yer life’s your own, but think it over before ya quit yer job… I mean, what’d you do if you weren’t in weather?”

“...Be a mom to Scootaloo and our new baby.”

Applejack stared for a few seconds and sighed. “This’ a big change for us, Rainbow. Ah love the idea of you bein’ a stay at home mom but, won’t ya get bored?”

“Psh,” Rainbow said as she stood and began to pace quickly, “I’m always gonna be busy and flying is going to make it more awesome than ever! Imagine taking our baby earth pony on a sonic rainboom!”

“You are not takin’ any of our children on a Rainboom.”

Rainbow giggled. “Gotcha. So~?”

“Dash, that ain’t how ya get me hot’n bothered.”

Rainbow smirked and leaned in to nuzzle Applejack. “Ah wanna buck every apple from yer trees,” Applejack inhaled slowly, “then I’m gonna pick ‘em all up with my teeth on their stems,” Applejack shuddered, “then I’m gonna take ‘em and sort ‘em for you,” Rainbow said climbing on top of Applejack.

“After that I’m gonna take one and roll it between my forelegs and make sure it’s nice’n shiny and quickly take a juicy bite,” Applejack nodded as she began to pant. “And I thought you hated apples,” Rainbow teased.

“Not when they’re with you,” she said breathily.

Rainbow slowly made her way down Applejack’s body. “I’ll lick my lips and take another bite, then another… so sweet, so soft,” she could smell the sweet aroma wafting up, “then I’m gonna start doing chores without being told…”

“Oh shut up and start, Celestia please,” she begged as she felt an ache run through her entire pussy.

Rainbow finally lowered enough to look at her goal. “This’ gonna be so awesome,” she said softly as she slid her forelegs under Applejack’s rump, raising Applejack to a better angle.
