A knock on the front door made Twilight's ears perk up and swivel towards it, her attention on 'The Essentials of Equine Courting' interrupted by that rap upon wood. Eagerly, Twilight got up and headed out to the foyer, her hoof-steps lightly echoing in the large-chambered room. Usually she would have let Spike answer the door while she continued reading, but she had invited Applejack to come over and hang out today, and as such, wanted to answer the door herself since it was likely her.

"I've got it Spike!" Twilight called out, before moments later reaching the door, looking back to see the little purple dragon head back to his room with his Actionhoof comic book still in claw. Gripping the handle in her magic, she opened the door to see the orange-coated mare that she was proud to call her filly-friend. "Hi Applejack!"

Applejack stood on the threshold, looking up at the grand majesty of the huge, shining building that was the Castle of Friendship – and Twilight's home. "Ah ain't never gonna get used t' this, Ah swear..." she said after putting down the mid-sized basket held in her muzzle, before then looking down and meeting Twilight's eyes. "'ey there, shug." Her tone was friendly as always, but had another quality to it now; a subtle adoration that made Twilight feel weak in the knees.

Twilight smiled, waving a hoof inside, to which Applejack went to pick up the basket, Twilight just noticing it. "So, what'd ya bring this time?" Twilight asked with a hint of mirth. Every time she went over to visit Applejack announced, or Applejack came over to visit her after they'd started dating, or went over there to get her and take her for a date, she always brought some goodie she or her Granny Smith made; whether it be cookies, muffins, or even tarts a few times.

"Well, Ah guess y'all will jus' have t' wait an' see." Applejack said with a smirk, before then grabbing up the basket and stepping inside, heading towards the reading room that doubled as Twilight's bedroom...or it may as well with as much time as she spent there!

Twilight hated the suspense when Applejack teased her, not telling her what she'd brought, and instead leaving her guessing until they'd reached her room. Thankfully for Twilight, it was only a short trot and wait. As they arrived, Applejack set down the basket and nodded towards it, giving Twilight permission to look inside.

Almost too eagerly, Twilight nearly tore the basket asunder in her over-eagerness, her magic very quickly parting the fabric of mystery to reveal...apple-walnut cookies! As if to reward her own patience, Twilight quickly grabbed up one of the cookies in her hooves and, after getting an affirming nod and a small chuckle from Applejack, sunk her teeth into it.

"Sweets fer mah Shug." Applejack cooed as Twilight bit into the cookie, saying the same thing every time she presented a treat for her marefriend, with the latter quickly finding there were indeed raisins in them too!

"Ho my goff! Ees ave rashons foo?!" Twilight exclaimed through a mouthful of cookie, the mixture of spices—was that nutmeg? Cinnamon?—and fruit quite the taste parade for her senses.

"Eeyup. Ah know ya like yer raisins, so Ah tossed em in jus' fer you." Applejack said, grabbing one of the cookies herself and taking a bite. Together they ate cookies in silence, having a number each, before they finally started talking.

"So, how have you been?"

"Fahn," Applejack replied, before noticing the upturned book on Twilight's bed, reading the title. "'Th' Essentials a Equine Courtin'', huh? Applejack asked, giving Twilight, whom currently had a whole cookie stuffed in her mouth, a smirk, "Ah thought y' said y' weren't studyin' on datin' no more, an' y' were gonna play it by hoof?"

Caught, Twilight sighed. "Well, ya got me." Twilight said, holding her hooves up as if in surrender; "I give up. By Celestia, I'll never study on anything ever again!" she continued, a snort and smile then escaping her, the roll of her eyes only adding onto just how serious she wasn't.

"Y'know, there's a fee fer studyin' what y'ain't supposed to, right?" Applejack asked, getting a bit closer to Twilight, only a couple of feet away.

Noticing Applejack's proximity to her, Twilight turned and looked to her, her cheeks still slightly bulging with sugary baked doughy goodness, and quickly gulping down what she had in her mouth. Before she knew what had happened, she was once more pinned to the bed as her muzzle was sharply met with Applejack rubbing their muzzles together, before finally meeting her lips. A bolt of lightning went down Twilight's spine as she felt the slightly chapped lips on her own, feeling herself being so-gently pinned against the bed much the same way as she had been against the nook's bench during the first kiss they'd shared, her wings unfurling beside her as they kissed.

They continued kissing like that for a while, the soft, wet smacks of their lips and quiet moans and sounds of pleasure the only sounds in the room, the scent and taste of cookies and each other, the feel of soft fur or feathers on their hooves flooding their senses. Applejack suddenly felt as she was starting to be rolled over, but retaliated, pushing herself a little harder onto Twilight as well as gripping a bit tighter with all four hooves, only to suddenly find herself on her back beneath the smaller pony, a light tingle over her whole body.

"Consarn it Twi, quit cheatin' with yer magic!" Applejack said as she was once more being held down by her partner's spell, hearing the other giggling as she planted kisses all around her muzzle.

"Well you always start it, and I always finish it!" Twilight exclaimed, having unceremoniously flopped atop Applejack, her lighter body not having quite the same dominating effect she was trying for, but none-the-less proved her point. Applejack was well and truly pinned.

"Fahn, fahn, y' proved yer point. Lemme up now." Applejack said helplessly, being held down by a smirking alicorn and her magic and knowing she had no hope of escape outside of being let up.

"Say I won."

"Fahn, y'won. Now lemme up."

Having claimed her victory, Twilight released her telekinetic grasp on Applejack, the other mare getting up and shaking off, replacing her Stetson on her head. "Jeez Twi..." Applejack huffed, only to be met with the smirking face of her filly-friend, "...anyhow, y' wanna go do somethin', instead 'a' jus makin' out an' cheatin' in wrasslin' all day?"

Twilight simply, exaggeratedly, flopped on the bed akin to what their friend Rarity might do, squirming a bit to get comfortable. "Nope, today's my day off. I've got nothing to do but lay around, read and hang out with you."

"Oh boy. Ah'm jus' prancin' in mah horseshoes in anticipation. Oh mah, watchin' y' readin' a dusty ol' book all day!" Applejack said in a playful sarcasm, getting off the bed and heading to the door, "Y' at least wanna watch a movie or somethin' instead?"

Twilight huffed again, getting into an upright laying position. "My books are not dusty thank you very much. I keep my library very well dusted, and..." Twilight stopped as she heard Applejack snickering, before giving that tangent up with a sigh. "Fine, I'll watch a stinking movie with you."

Twilight reluctantly got off the bed and together they walked to the den. The walls there covered in pictures of Applejack, Twilight, and all of their other friends together and doing various activities; from visiting the park and having a picnic, to being together at Cadence's wedding, to hanging out at Donut Joe's in Canterlot after the Grand Galloping Gala.

As they settled on the couch, Twilight grabbed the remote, turning it on and putting a movie on. After the epic magic fights, which must have taken a lot of choreography to avoid ponies getting hurt, came a romance scene between the main character, an overly-buff Pegusus stallion, and a smaller Unicorn mare. It started out innocently enough; the two simply kissing and the mare rubbing on the stallion's wings as they embraced in thanks for him saving her from Prince Blackheart, a clear spoof of the real King Sombra, before it quickly escalated, the two ponies starting to grind on each other as they ended up on the bed.

Applejack was beet-red at this point, as was Twilight, but neither could look away as it escalated even more, with the stallion climbing atop the mare as she lay on her back, moaning that she was in heat and begging him to 'put your foal in me', their tails hiked aside, and the camera oh-so-conveniently focused behind them and between their legs as he lined himself up, pressed his hips forwards, and—

The TV turned off, and both mares were now silently staring at the black screen, Twilight blushing especially deeply as she realized she'd unintentionally put on a semi-pornographic movie for them to watch!

"Well, uh, that was...interestin'," Applejack said, realizing how hot and bothered the scene had made her, closing her legs to visibly hide her arousal, but knowing Twilight could likely smell it, just as she could smell her marefriend's own aroused scent.

"Yes *ahem*, yes it was." Twilight stammered out, glancing at the Hooflicks title screen of the movie and realizing it was rated Mature with violent and graphic sexual content. "Sorry about that Applejack, I didn't even realize the rating..."

Applejack smirked at Twilight. "Ah didn't think ya were that kinda mare...bringin' out that kinda 'entertainment' fer friends..." she teased lightly, making Twilight's face burn even hotter.

"I-It was an accident!" Twilight said as she struggled to defend herself, before hearing Applejack give a quiet chuckle.

"Don't worry, ain't nothin' Ah haven't seen on th' farm. We do have animal husbandry there after all, and boy do th' sheep get vocal an' loud when they're in rut and heat!" Applejack said, seeing Twilight's tension reduce as she saw Applejack was alright with her mistake, letting out a breath she didn't even know she was holding. "Us Apples ain't exactly prudes when it comes t' sex, despite popular belief." Was it just Twilight, or did Applejack wink at her after she said that?

"So, now what?"

"Iunno, we could go back t' yer room and 'read'." Applejack said, giving a suggestive look as she did, "er maybe we could watch a different movie?"

Twilight's stomach growled loudly, apparently bringing up a third option. She hadn't eaten a meal today, spending too much time reading it would seem, and apparently the multiple large cookies she'd eater earlier hadn't sated her. "Or maybe we could get something to eat?" Twilight asked, giving a sheepish smile.

Applejack sighed, a small smile on her muzzle as she did. "Don't ya ever eat b'fore Ah come and visit?" she asked with a chuckle, before heading towards the kitchen.

"Wait!" Twilight called out, trotting up to Applejack, "You're my guest and I'm supposed to cook for you, not the other way around!"

Applejack gave a gentle laugh, before giving Twilight a kiss on the muzzle. "It's alright shug, Ah can whip us up somethin' real fast. No offense, but yer not exactly th' most apt in th' kitchen, if ya know what Ah mean."

Twilight blushed a bit, pawing at the floor with a hoof; "C'mon, that was only the one time."

"Twi, ya nearly burnt down th' kitchen while boilin' water."

Twiilight winced, before stepping aside and letting Applejack pass."...Yeah, I know."

"Don't worry yer perdy, perdy li'l' head 'bout it. I'll be done in no time. Jus' go set down fer a spell."

Sure enough, within thirty minutes, Applejack had emerged from the kitchen with four veggie tostada, a side of Mexicolt-style rice on the side of each plate. She invited Twilight to come sit at her long, formal dining area, but instead was ushered to the much smaller, less formal dining table Twilight had set up in the next room for her own personal meals and her friends' when she invited them over.

They ate quietly for a while, before something that Twilight had been thinking about for a while, matter of fact since their first date, was finally voiced.

"Hey Applejack, you said you're not a prude about sex, right?

"Nah, Ah can't say Ah am."

"Then why did you say 'no' when I asked you at the hill?"

Applejack sighed, knowing this may come up and preparing for it. "Twi, it ain't that Ah didn't want t' make love with y', it's jus'...well, you an' Ah were...well, you were drunk, an' Ah didn't know if y' were truly ready fer that with me," she explained, before giving Twilight a kiss on the head, pulling away and smiling softly; "Ah promise, whenever yer ready, Ah'll be ready too."

"I thought...I thought you didn't find me attractive or something..." Twilight said, a bit of hurt in her voice. Applejack quickly gave a shake of the head, as well as a kiss on the side her muzzle.

Applejack promptly put down her tostada and reached over to Twilight, lifting her chin with a hoof and having her look her in the eyes. "Twi, yer a very beautiful mare and Ah would be proud t' make love with ya, but Ah just couldn't then. Ah knew y' weren't yerself, an' Ah didn't wanna chance takin' advantage of ya like that."

Twilight smiled, then meeting her lips to Applejack's, giving her a soft kiss and holding it for a while before returning to her meal. "I understand AJ. Thanks for caring about me."

"No prob' Sugar." Applejack said, about to take another bite before hearing one last thing from Twilight;

"I'm...I'm not drunk now. Would...would you be willing to have sex now?"

Applejack's tostada hit the plate with a clank. She looked over to Twilight, only to see a worried expression on her face in reaction to how Applejack had reacted to her question.

"S-Sorry! I shouldn't have asked!

"Nah Twi, it's alright. Y' have every right t' ask. Ah mean, Ah'd usually say no iffin it were anypony else askin' fer this so soon, but...well, we've known each other fer, hay, years now. It feels like we've been datin' fer that long anyhow it seems..."

Twilight remained silent for a while more, seemingly considering that concept. "Yeah, you're right." Twilight said, her tone expressing realization of it as truth.

"So Twi, Ah will now accept what y' offered my on th' hill. Ah...Ah accept your offer t'...make love with me. But first, let's finish eatin'."

"S-so y' use a ...dildo, huh Twi?" Applejack asked, giving a nervous chuckle, not entirely sure WHAT to say as they now lay together on Twilight's extremely soft bed, anticipating what was soon to come.

"Well, yes I do use a dildo in and out of my heats, and not the small one I used as a filly..." Twilight answered with a blush, before considering Applejack's nervousness over the subject. "Applejack, why don't you take your own advice?" Twilight asked, giving a comforting smile; "Just think about this. Does this feel right to you? I mean if it doesn't, we don't have to go any further until you're really ready. Do you trust me?"

As Applejack looked down to Twilight's hoof on her own, with her apparently having subconsciously grasped it, and tightened her grip on it a bit. "Yeah Twi, Ah trust ya with mah life, an' Ah gotta say this does feel right t' me. Ah've been yer friend for many years now, an' Ah know y' wouldn't make me do nothin' Ah wouldn't want to." Applejack said, already having agreed to the idea...before suddenly drawing a blank. "So, uh, what exactly do we do now?" Applejack asked. She knew how this sort of thing worked between stallions and mares, but hadn't even considered before agreeing that she had no idea how mares 'coupled'.

"Well, I don't really know much myself, but I did read this one romance book with two mares for some more...unconventional research in dating a mare. One of Rarity's...but anyways first, they started kissing, then one used a hoof on the other...and then, after, they...used their muzzles and tongues to engage in 'cunnilingus' simultaneously with their muzzles between each others legs."

"Cunni-what-now?"

"Cunnilingus. It's like...using your mouth to please a female's Mons pubis and vaginal opening."

"Twi, speak normal please."

"It's when a pony licks a mare's...well, between her legs."

"Ah. 'At makes sense. Weird soundin', but makes sense Ah guess..."

"Alright great..." Twilight said, softly clopping her hooves together in the same manner as many ponies would paw at the ground, showing her own nerves on the prospect. Deciding to set the mood, or at least try to, Twilight closed the curtains so only a sliver of light got in and lit a few candles she'd brought up with them, before then going to Applejack and meeting her muzzle to hers, kissing her softly as Applejack reclined onto the bed, letting Twilight overtake her this time.

They continued kissing more for a while, getting only a bit rougher, before Twilight broke it and spoke again. "So, do you still want to...?"

"Eeyup."

"I love you."

"Ah love ya too. Le's do this, Ah guess."

Applejack squirmed a bit as Twilight laid down next to her, and as she did Applejack gently held her hoof with her own. She then started guiding her hoof down her body: starting at her muscular neck, then down her chest, her lean belly, and toned stifle, which she eagerly lifted now, leaving Twilight's hoof resting on her small teats. Twilight could feel her nipples under the fur hardened in her arousal, and took the opportunity to give them a soft rub.

Applejack squeezed a bit tighter on Twilight's cannon with her hoof, new sensations rolling through her at the feeling of another touching her like this, finding herself helping to guide the rubs now. After a few moments of rubbing her teats, she guided Twilight's hooves lower, before letting go and leaving it on her pelvis, leaving it just short of her now-moistened marehood. Twilight just stayed still, looking at her hoof on the mare's pelvis, reeling from the fact that this was actually happening.

"It's OK Twi. Ah want this too."

That snapping her out of her trance, and taking a deep breath, Twilight lowered her hoof, feeling warm, lightly-swollen, slippery flesh under her hoof. It felt much like any other part of Applejack just warmer, smoother, and much more slippery, and much like between her own legs.

Applejack bucked her hips up on reflex as Twilight's hoof rubbed over her clitoral hood on the way down, letting out a quiet gasp at the feeling it caused, her clit winking on reflex to the stimulation. This felt much like when she used her own hoof to temporarily stop her heat's burning, but much better for some reason. Even at that first intimate touch she'd ever gotten from another, Applejack knew she wanted more. "Twi, y' can keep goin..." Applejack said encouragingly, finding she indeed rather loved the feeling of her mare-friend rubbing her there.

Getting a positive reaction, Twilight nodded and continued to slowly rub Applejack's snatch, the farm mare closing her eyes as her head lulled back, letting her hips softly grind her slit against the hoof pleasing her. This felt way better than she'd thought it would, her pleasure coasting along and her body leaving Twilight's hoof quite moist in the process.

"Wow, you're really liking this, aren't you Applejack?" Twilight asked as she continued to slowly rub for a while, not oblivious to just how wet her hoof was getting, with each rub making her hoof grow more soaked with earth-pony nectar. Applejack didn't respond, in another world it would seem, leaving her body to slowly rock on instinct against what was pleasing her, and each rub over her clit making her squirm slightly.

"Oh Twi...Ah wish we'd done this when you first asked..." Applejack said in a wispy tone Twilight had never heard from her, encouraging her to keep rubbing more and a bit harder, and getting more pleasured sounds from her mare and long-time friend.

After a few more minutes, when Twilight curved her hoof upward and started focusing more and more often on that little pleasure nub and making it wink frequently now, Applejack felt a tightness welling up in her belly; a tightness she knew all too well. "T-Twi...Ahm gettin'...Ahm gonna finish soon..." Applejack warned, only to feel the rubbing increase even more, her stifles closing on the hoof between them, letting her rub herself more aggressively on the now-trapped limb.

"It's OK, AJ. Just let it out."

Suddenly, after a few more grinds, stars danced before Applejack's eyes as a wave of euphoria overtook her, a quiet 'mmmmph' escaping her muzzle as her grinds became more forceful, her back arching forward and her powerful back legs gripping Twilight's foreleg tightly enough to make it almost go completely numb. Twilight meanwhile felt her hoof get much more wet now as her mare-friend clearly came to her, feeling the warm release spreading as Applejack had started grinding along the whole lower portion of her leg now, her snatch winking against her, her clit rubbing against her now-slick fur with each and sending more ecstasy through the farm-mare.

Twilight met her muzzle with Applejack's and felt her push back against her kiss with force in her moment of climax, letting her lips be an anchor for the pure bliss Applejack was likely feeling, to keep her grounded in this world.

After a few precious seconds of pure ecstasy, Applejack fell limp as she was held against Twilight's warm body, shivering lightly as the last pangs of pleasure rolled through her, her stifles' grip on her hoof loosened now, if not by much. They simply lay there like that for a while, with Applejack recovering from her first orgasm in what felt like forever, and Twilight ever-so-gently rubbing over her mare-friend's now-very-wet flower as Applejack caught her breath, still kissing each other softly all the while.

After Twilight stopped rubbing her altogether and broke the kiss, Applejack went limp, not having felt this relaxed since she was a filly. She usually had somewhere to go, somepony to meet – but now she didn't have a care in the world, just floating on that little cloud Twilight had brought her to.

"Wow Twi, 'at was...real nice." Applejack said in a deeper tone, her eyes hooded as she looked up to the purple unicorn, "Y'want a turn? Ah ain't never done this fer another mare, but it's only fair."

Twilight was more than ready for something, having been using her magic to tend to herself while she rubbed Applejack, but not anywhere near satisfied. Twilight nodded as her hoof left the warm, supple lips, a string of off-white fem-cum connecting them briefly before finally snapping. "So...did you want to try that other thing I mentioned?"

"That cunni-whatsit's where we use our muzzles on each other, raight?"

"Yep, cunnilingus."

"Y' got it sugar. Lead the way."

Both then laid down, Twilight guiding them into the proper position as well as she could, with her muzzle ending up between Applejack's stifles, and Applejack's between Twilight's. "So what...we jus' start...like, licki—Aaah!" Applejack asked, only to give a muffled, surprised yelp when Twilight instantly pressed her muzzle against her still-sensitive sex, feeling a warm, slimy softness pushing just between her lower lips.

"Ooooh Twi, 'at feels...kinda weird..." Applejack said, but the way she eagerly pushed her hips forward, pushing Twilight's muzzle harder into her puffy slit, spoke volumes about how she felt about the more-intense tingles it was causing her. Deciding she couldn't be unfair, Applejack started to unsteadily lap at the wet slit before her muzzle, her first few licks teasing her outer lips, with her basically following Twilight's lead in what to do.

"Ah, that...that feels...really good, actually." Twilight commented in a muffled tone, shifting herself and opening her legs a bit more, making herself more accessible to her pleaser and giving a soft shudder at the sensations. It felt like her hoof, but much better, the warm muscle squirming against her lower lips while her other senses were assaulted by the flavor and scent of a very aroused mare quite the lovely sensation.

"You OK Applejack?" Twilight asked a few moments of soft licking later, noticing Applejack had gotten absolutely soaked in that time. A nod from the named mare. "Do you want me to attempt...penetration?" Another nod, more vigorous. With consent given, Twilight pushed against the lips of her lover and heard a sharp inhale as she easily slid between the very eager petals, Applejack giving a quick series of winks at the new sensation, letting the tongue deeper to feel the velvety sensation of her entrance. Applejack quickly followed suit, earning a moan as they moved on, both starting to properly eat each other out now.

Applejack was right; the tongue squirming inside her now did feel weird and slippery, but at the same time absolutely wonderful. Twilight couldn't help it as her vulva winked into the licks, pleasured sounds now streaming from both as they licked and suckled, both lost to each others' tongues now.

They kept on for what felt like forever, their bodies squirming against each other, hot breath and tongues setting the mares ablaze with pleasure, but it wasn't long after that before Applejack started trembling again, apparently getting closer to her second release; unsurprisingly since she was still very sensitive from her earlier orgasm.

She wanted Applejack to cum for her again before she reached her own orgasm, and so Twilight curved her tongue sharply upward as one of the mares had done in the book she'd read, remembering how the other mare had reacted in the story. As she did, she suddenly felt Applejack tense up, a very pleased moan coming from her as she suddenly came again. She started rocking her hips against the source of her pleasure as she did, releasing more of her thick mare-honey and squeezing down on the tongue now rubbing her G-spot, more intense pleasure than before rolling throughout her whole body.

Even through her orgasm however, Applejack determinedly continued lapping at Twilight's slit, wanting her mare-friend to feel the pleasure she'd had given to her twice already, targeting the small, heart-shaped nub at the top and suckling softly on it, knowing how much she liked to touch it when she pleasured herself. It wasn't long after she'd focused on licking and sucking that sensitive bulb before Twilight started to tremble much like she had, her stifles squeezing around Applejack's head tightly as she suddenly tensed up.

Twilight climaxed with a brief cry, her body quaking, her head back and eyes sealed as anything close to thought was overtaken by a white-hot wave of pleasure. Her hips rolled on instinct against Applejack's muzzle as intense tingles, way better than even her dildo could provide, shot through her, the feeling of something warm and wet and moving inside of her during her squeezes better than she could have ever imagined. Applejack left her tongue deep inside Twilight as she felt her squirm and writhe in her orgasm, letting her inner walls milk and squeeze against it before all too soon, she relaxed and released her head, spent completely.

Both simply lay there dazed, panting as their afterglows settled in, with Applejack crawling up next to her mate so they could lay together. Twilight in turn met her lips with Applejack as soon as she could, sharing a kiss as their flavors mixed together, tasting their own cum on each other. It wasn't as bad tasting as either thought it would be, indeed tasting kind of salty and fruity.

"That...that was amazing." Twilight stammered out, getting an agreeing nod from Applejack.

"Yer darn right it was. Ahm glad y' were mah first Twi..."

"I'm glad you were my first too."

Silence for a while, save for their quiet breaths and some shifting.

"Hey uh, Twi... ain't it kinda unfair that Ah got t' finish twice and y' didn't?" Applejack asked, then giving quite the suggestive look; "Should Ah remedy that?"

Twilight gave an equally lascivious look in return before nodding, Applejack squirming and going back behind her. Twilight spread her hind legs again as she lay on her back now, soon after giving a moan as Applejack sealed her lips on her marehood now, holding her hindquarters in either hoof as her tongue plunged deep once more.

"By Celestia, I love you Applejack..." Twilight cooed out, reaching down to rub Applejack's ears as she was pleased once more.

Best. Day off. Ever.

Author's Note

Who would have guessed days off could be so sexy?

Of Ropes, Rodeos and Cowponies

"Heya Twi." Applejack said, smiling as she walked into the castle's reading room, seeing Twilight once more with her muzzle in a book, her wings shifting slightly and ear twitching as she heard her mare-friend's voice, "How's mah beautiful mare?"

"Oh hey sexy, what's up?" Twilight asked as she turned from her book and looked up at the other mare, who was standing in the doorway and leaning against the frame.

Applejack came over to the study table Twilight was sitting in front of, joining her in sitting there. "'Earth Ponies have a number of erogenous zones but the most sensitive ones, generally speaking, are the 'frog' of the hoof, also more commonly known as the underhoof, the ears, and, most commonly, the back legs, more specifically the stifles in the Cutie-Mark area...'" she read aloud from the book Twilight was 'studying', finding it must be an Earth-pony anatomy book...and one of a rather sultry nature it would seem, complete with some quite graphic diagrams that left nothing to the imagination.

"Oh, yeah. After what we did last week, I kinda decided to do some...studying on other ways we could have more fun in that way." Twilight said, a light tint of deep purple on her cheeks as she was caught out, even if she knew Applejack wouldn't mind such a thing – and indeed may encourage it!

"Well shucks Twi, here ya are, studin' about ways t' please me yer bes', an' here Ah ain't made a lick of effort in th' same way!" Applejack said, indeed feeling a bit guilty now.

"That's OK Applejack. I've learned quite a bit about Unicorns and Pegusi in this matter too, and it would seem that Alicorns, at least from speculation and relation, have the erogenous zones of all races of ponies in the same way they share the traits and abilities of them! I could definitely share that knowledge with you, if you'd like?"

Applejack only smirked. "Save it fer th' bedroom, beautiful." she said, giving a wink, "Besides, Ah came over t' invite ya t' the Appleoosa Rodeo with me. Ah mahself was invited t' compete there, an Ah figured, well, maybe y'all could come t' cheer me on?"

"Oh yeah? Are you going to invite the others too?"

"Yeah, but Ah wanted t' make sure you could make it first."

"Ah. I see. Well, I'm sure I can make time, and I'd be glad to cheer you on. When is it?"

"Friday nex' week."

"I may have to reschedule some things, but I'll be there. I promise."

"Thanks Shug. Ah love ya."

"I love you too."

~ ~ ~

It had been a week since Applejack had invited Twilight, meanwhile also having invited her other friends as well, and the day for the Annual Appleoosan Rodeo had finally arrived. Applejack had been training the past week, with Twilight and her other friends always there cheering her on, and she swore their encouragement, especially Twilight's, is what drove her to beat her old personal record on her barrel weaving practice course.

Now they stood outside the main arena of the rodeo, having taken a long train ride here and leaving Applejack more than eager to stretch her legs in the competition. It was a few minutes before the first event was to start, and Applejack was actually feeling a bit nervous. She always was before a competition, but now that Twilight, the most important pony in Equestria to her, was watching, that only added an extra edge onto her usual nerves.

"Ohmigosh, Applejack! I know you're going to do awesome!" Pinkie Pie said, accompanied by a sudden explosion of confetti and a party horn coming from the hyper pink pony. Where exactly the confetti came from nopony knew, but they all knew better than to question Pinkie Pie of all ponies.

"Well, though we are not quite as...enthusiastic as Pinkie here, we do all wish you the best of luck darling." Rarity said, giving an encouraging smile.

"Thank y'all. Ah'll do mah bes'." Applejack said, giving a tip of her hat and as the giant triangle was rung, telling the competitors to get into position for the first event; the cattle-wrangling competition. "Well, That's mah call. Gotta go!"

The cows and ponies both assembled on the field after the bell was rung, and after everypony was in position and was given a rope, the rules were stated. "Alright, fer the cowponies, yer goal is t' wrangle and hog-tie as many cattle as y'can. Cattle, yer job is t' try and avoid being captured. Remember, no fighting, bucking, hittin', or causing any harm to anypony or cow is allowed, and if anypony or cow is asked to stop at any time, y'have to." The announcer said.

Applejack looked over to Twilight and her other friends as the timer ticked down, seeing her mare-friend give her a huge smile and a whistle of encouragement, making Applejack huff and hunch down in determination as she locked her eyes on the largest bull, Big Bill. She was told by her cousin Braeburn, who was also competing, that this bull would always give a really good fight to anypony who dared to challenge him, and wasn't a push-over by any means. If somepony actually managed to wrangle him successfully, they would get ten points, as opposed to other cattle giving three to eight points based on their own traits.

As the huge bull saw Applejack's stare locked on him, he returned a smirk, as if to say 'bring it on'. Applejack returned the smirk, the sentiments returned.

As the starting bell was rung, the cattle scattered and the ponies chased them down, whoops and cheers coming from the crowd as they did. In the resulting chaos, Applejack lost her sights on her targeted bull but soon locked onto him, and the bull in kind spotted the gamborge-orange pony himself. Applejack pawed at the ground, and the bull snorted.

Applejack got to a gallop as the bull took off again, the farmpony hot on his trail. As the bull turned a sharp corner, Applejack quickly fashioned a lasso from the rope that was once around her withers, gripping the rope tightly between her teeth as she started spinning it above herself.

The bull noticed this, and quickly changed directions again, making Applejack miss her first throw. She cursed quietly as she quickly gathered the rope and prepared for another throw, this time waiting for the bull to make an evasive maneuver again. As it did just as planned and dodged to the right again, Applejack waited for it to slow a moment from changing directions, its momentum lost, before throwing the rope again.

This time the rope struck true, the loop landing over the bull's neck, earning her a triumphant cry from her crowd of friends. Her own confidence surging now, Applejack kept pace with the bull twice her size, before it sharply turned again, jerking its competitor alongside it and nearly throwing her off-balance, earning worried gasps from her friends and causing her hat to fall off. Applejack quickly regained her hoofing and, as she realized her prized hat was now in the mud, she retaliated with a jerk of her own. "Aw HAY no ya didn't disrespect th' hat...!" she growled out, yanking the bull and actually pulling it off-balance..

As she saw the bull stumble, Applejack capitalized, yanking again in the other direction and this time the bull fell to its side, her having used its own weight against it. This earned Applejack another cheer from the crowd, with her especially noticing Twilight above the den of other voices, and that particular rally making her smile. As the bull scrabbled to get up, Applejack charged into its side, rolling him onto his back now, his legs splayed in the air as he was forced into a prone position, leaving him dazed. The bull once more tried to get up but Applejack quickly wrestled him back down and grabbed the length of the rope in her mouth, jumping atop his chest and wrapping his legs tightly in rope even as he tried to flail and escape.

As the giant bull was felled, the whole crowd erupted in cheers, making Applejack look to Twilight, seeing a huge smile on her face as she met Applejack's eyes, a look of pride on her own. Applejack felt a fluttering in her belly as she climbed off the bull, showered with the spotlight and the announcer stating she'd actually felled Big Bill. She then got off of him and walked over to her hat, wiping what little mud had gotten on it off and replacing it on its rightful home of her head.

As she heard the ending bell ring, Applejack heard a very deep voice right behind her. "Congrats pony. Yer the first mare to ever capture me." Big Bill said, rolling over onto his side, "The last pony to capture me was a real big stallion, a Clydesdale if I remember. Oh and, uh, sorry 'bout th' hat..."

"Well shucks, y'all put up a good fight." Applejack said, giving the defeated bull a smile and a tip of said hat. Applejack quickly untied him,
then she and the bull parted company. The scores were tallied up, and moments the results were handed over to the announcer.

"In this year's wrangling competition, the results are in. The winner of the competition is..." Applejack held her breath, the crowd silent in anticipation. "... our very own Blazing Stirrup of Appleoosa, with five captures and twelve points!"

Applejack sighed as she heard the first-place winner wasn't her, scuffing a hoof on the ground in disappointment. As a deep-brown stallion with a lasso cutie mark trotted up on stage and accepted the blue ribbon to great applause, the next placing was announced. "...and in second place, with the additional achievement of the first mare to ever successfully capture and pin Big Bill, is Applejack of Ponyville!"

Another wave of cheers went up for her as she walked up on stage, forcing a smile as she felt the silken red ribbon slid over her neck, with an additional golden bull-horns pin on it showing her accomplishment. As she looked over the crowd, her eyes quickly locked onto the lavender alicorn mare she was proud to call her own, seeing Twilight stamping her applause for Applejack alongside the others, hearing the additional whoops and hollers from her. She knew she didn't deserve it.

As the third place and on were announced and the named ponies came to stage, a final cheer was given for them all before the crowd dispersed, a recess called until the next event in about half-an-hour. Applejack and the others climbed off the stage, and Applejack was met at the stage exit by her mare, being rewarded by a quick kiss.

"Great job Applejack, you did amazing! Second place!" Twilight virtually shouted in her excitement, wrapping her hooves around Applejack. The other mares soon arrived, each giving their own congratulations.

"I'm so glad you're OK...when that big bull yanked you around like that..." Fluttershy said, her face blatantly showing her worry for her friend, "I was afraid you'd get hurt."

Applejack only sighed. before gently pushing Twilight away, getting a concerned look from her. "Gals, Ah don't deserve the praise. Ah only got second place. Second." Applejack kicked at the dirt ground again, another dust cloud puffing up.

"Applejack, you did amazing. You should be proud that you got second, and felled an adversary that was a lot bigger and stronger than you. I know I'm proud of you." Twilight said, again wrangling Applejack into another embrace, and the other girls joining her in a group hug.

"You did awesome, AJ!"

"Yay!"

"THAT WAS GREAT! THE BULL WAS LIKE 'I'M GONNA WIN', AND YOU'RE LIKE 'NOPE', THEN YOU PULLED ON THE ROPE AND—!

"Darling, you did great...for the ruffian sport that this is..."

Applejack finally conceded a smile as she heard the overwhelming praise from her friends, a gentle blush crossing her face as she brought her hat down to hide it. "Well shucks gals, yer too good t' me." she said, only to feel her friends squeeze her tighter, feeling Twilight sneak a kiss on her cheek amidst the embrace.

~ ~ ~

After the obstacle course, which Applejack lost by a very close second and earned another red ribbon, the sextet of ponies made their way to the food tents at Applejack's insistence. Applejack simply smiled after the competition, and for a change didn't feel disappointed by getting second this time, instead proud she'd done as well as she had. "Hey gals, Ah know this Mexicolt stand here that always serves the best veggie tostadas, an' pico de gallo that's not even that spicy but real flavorful." she'd said as they left the area, looking to Fluttershy in particular at that last part, before leading them to a bright-red tent.

Applejack ordered for the group, and as they ate, Twilight sat and snuggled close to Applejack.

"Hey, Twi?"

"Hmm?"

"Ah was thinkin' maybe Ah could teach ya how to use a lasso, maybe how t'do a few tricks?"

"But Applejack, I already know how to levitate a rope and—"

"Nah Twi, Ah mean th' Earth-Pony way. No magic."

"Oh. Um...sure."

"It'll be fun." Applejack promised, but saw an uneasy expression on Twilight's muzzle.

After they finished eating, Applejack and Twilight went back to the now-cleared rodeo stadium, the other four ponies of their group parting ways to check out the various other attractions at the rodeo. Grabbing a rope from a hook, Applejack tossed it to Twilight, who on instinct grabbed it in her magic.

"Nah Twi, not with yer magic. Ya gotta use your hooves!" Applejack said with a chuckle, and Twilight returning it.

"Oops, sorry!"

"S'alright Shug. Right, now, y' gotta make and tie the loop. Watch me." Applejack showed her how to tie a simple knot with her hooves and mouth, and then showing the finished result. Twilight then tried to do the same - but ended up tying the rope around her hoof. "G'job Twi, ya lassoed yerself!" Applejack teased, getting a chuckle from Twilight.

"Heh, I guess I did..." Twilight said, before untying her hoof and trying again, and after a few times getting it right.

"G'job. Now, y' just gotta get it spinnin'. Jus' roll yer neck like this..." Applejack said, making her head move in such a way to get the lasso spinning properly, lots of past experience letting her get it going perfectly in no time.

Twilight tried to do the same but instead the rope fell on her, making her yelp and, in her panic, she used her magic to toss it aside as though it were a snake.

"Heh, not quite love. Here, lemme show ya..." Applejack said, getting close to Twilight, rubbing against her quite a bit more than strictly necessary. It didn't go unnoticed by Twilight, and she pushed back into her lover. "Here, ya jus' roll yer head like this..." she said, a hoof holding Twilight's head gently as she showed her the motions. This time, Twilight again picked up the rope, and as this time the rope started to spin above her with the momentum, Twilight's lips peeled upwards in a smile.

"There ya go girl! Ya got it!" Applejack said, giving Twilight a firm pat on the butt as she dropped the rope, then a quick kiss on the top of the muzzle. "Beautiful and talented? Wow, Ah chose good!"

Twilight blushed at the compliment, but then something popped in her mind, a determined grin crossing her face. "Hey Applejack, what about that one trick where you get the rope spinning and jump through it in the air?" Twilight asked, looking up and into to her marefriend's eyes.

"Oh...y'mean this one?" Applejack asked, starting to twirl her rope again, but this time in front of her, a touch of showoffishness getting into the mare. As soon as she'd prepared herself, she tipped her head forward and jumped through the hoop as it crossed over her, and again as it came back when she pulled her head up. Her one-pony audience applauded her as she did.

"Wow...I could never get over how ponies could do that so perfectly. Could...could you teach me?" Twilight asked, with Applejack simply smiling widely and nodding.

Applejack thought, <Ah get to teach Twilight something instead of the other way around!> "Well Twi, it's all about timin'..." Applejack said, then proceeded to show and tell the mechanics of the trick to Twilight, with the latter watching in rapt attention as she once more displayed when to jump. Having seen and heard enough that she had a reasonable degree of confidence, the two switched places at Twilight's request.

Now standing before her marefriend, and literally on a stage of sorts, Twilight started to spin the rope again, but had modified it so it spun in front of her as Applejack had shown, if somewhat jerkily. She spun the rope, jumped... and somehow managed to hog-tie herself within seconds; as she squirmed to get out, it only made the rope tighter.

Applejack couldn't contain a soft laugh as she saw her marefriend had tied herself up, rather literally. Twilight huffed at the perceived scorn and pouted, trying to untie herself with magic, but indeed only making it tighter as she pulled on it. She couldn't figure out how to untie the knot she'd formed blind! "Um...help?" she asked helplessly, looking up to Applejack.

Applejack only smiled now as she bent over to untie the tangled mess of rope around her lover's hooves. "Got yerself tied up in somethin' else now too huh?" Applejack quipped, "Ain't as easy as it looks, is it now?" The comment only made the blush on Twilight's face grow. Finally, Applejack managed to untangle the purple hooves once trapped and Twilight quickly scrambled up, a look of disappointment on her face.

"Aw, nopony gets it on the first try Shug. Ah was jus' kiddin' 'round earlier." she said as she replaced the two borrowed ropes on the hook, "If ya wanna practice more on it later, we can. Ah'd be glad t' help."

Twilight sighed, smiled, then nodded. She really did want to learn that trick, just not in somewhere so...populated. She was still a Princess after all, and her making a mule of herself in public was not a good idea. "Maybe later, just you and me." she said, sneaking a quick kiss on Applejack's lips in thanks for this, before then starting to walk away, nodding to the side as she looked at Applejack to tell her to follow. Applejack complied, and together they went off to enjoy whatever other activities the rodeo had to offer, together.

"...but for now, let's just have some fun together."

Author's Note

Pure 'Slice of Life' isn't really my forte, but here it is!

Of Hearts and Hooves

Twilight lay on her bed with Applejack leaned up against her, Twilight's hoof rubbing quickly on her mare-friend's soaked slit. They'd just entered Twilight's room at the castle after their Hearts and Hooves Day outing, a lovely casual date at a cowpony watering-hole Applejack liked to frequent. One thing led to another, and they'd started discussing the dildo Twilight had mentioned owning, and regularly using, while walking back. This piqued Applejack's curiosity, and led to her asking to come home with Twilight, and she'd sensed her desires and accepted. Then Applejack had asked to come to her bedroom, and she'd once again accepted. Then they'd ended up on the bed...

"Mmm, you like that Applejack?" Twilight purred sensually into her ear as she targeted her winking clit more with a hoof-tip, making the farm-mare squirm under her touch, feeling just how wet she'd made her with the simple rubbing and dirty talk, her thick lube letting her hoof easily slide along. "You like me rubbing your lovely pussy don't you? Mmm, look how wet you are already...I bet you've been wanting this all day..." This wasn't their first nor second time having sex since their first time, with them regularly getting together every few days to 'relieve some tension', as Applejack liked to put it, after the stresses of work. Now that Applejack was coming into her Spring heat, her libido had increased significantly, with her and Twilight spending more and more time in either of their bedrooms, feeding her seasonal hunger.

"Aaahn...Y-y'know it Sugar..." Applejack replied with a moan, her hoof atop Twilight's cannon as she continued to softly grind the tip into her sensitive, winking nub, Applejack's mind pulsing with pleasure alongside it and her hips softly rising with each downward movement. "Ain't mah fault yer so sexy...an' good with yer hooves. Plus Ahm kinda in heat..."

Applejack simply enjoyed being pleasured for a while, Twilight equally enjoying pleasing her, before Applejack finally spoke up with what she'd been thinking about since that first evening they'd shared on the hill. "Hey, Twi?" Applejack asked.

"Hmm?"

"So Ah was thinkin'..."

"Isn't that kinda dangerous?"

"Hey, shut it...anyhow, Ah was thinkin'...maybe...well, we could use yer...toy on me tonight? Ah mean, y' said it could stop a mare's heat fer a time, so..."

The rubbing stopped as she asked that, leaving Applejack somewhat concerned she may have overstepped some sort of unspoken boundary. "Twi?" she asked as she turned and looked into Twilight's face, seeing the lavender mare's face twisted into a wanton grin.

"I thought you'd never ask." Twilight said as her horn lit up in its magical glow, "...but actually, I've got a better idea than just a simple toy..."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah...you see, I've been working on learning this new spell, and I thought we could try it out."

"OK, y' got mah attention. What is it?" Applejack asked, her tone doing little to hide her eagerness. Every time Twilight had brought magic into the bedroom, it had been a wonderful time for Applejack and Twilight both, whether it be simply rubbing or even using solidified magic to tease and prod, it had felt amazing and left Applejack eager to experience whatever else her magical mare could come up with. Now that she was in heat, she could only imagine what her wonderful mare had planned for her.

"Well, you see...after we discussed you wanting to have foals one day, I started looking around a bit for the possibilities of two mares to have a foal together. Besides the standard options of adoption, or one or both of us being studded by an outside stallion, or artificially inseminated from a trusted sperm donor, I found there was another...lesser known option, at least for advanced unicorns, or anypony who knows one." Twilight started, before clearing her throat in the way that made Applejack anticipate the incoming history lesson. "Back in olden pony times, there were two powerful unicorn mares who loved each other very much. They loved each other so much, that they wanted to have a child together; one that was their own, and a part of both of them. So, the more powerful of them made and practiced near-endlessly with a spell, mixing it with this magic and that, trying to find a way to accomplish her goal. Over a year later, she'd done it. She'd found a way she and her mare could have a foal together."

"Wait wut? How's'at" Applejack asked, genuinely fascinated, knowing where this was likely going. Still, she wondered if such a thing was even possible, even with alicorn or unicorn magic.

Instead of answering, Twilight's horn grew brighter as she concentrated her magic internally. She focused on the spell's specifics and as she did, she felt a light burning in her crotch in front of where her teats were. She knew what to expect, but Applejack clearly didn't.

"T-Twi?! What's goin' on?!" Applejack panickingly asked, watching as the raspberry-red magic covered her lover's belly and a small bulge started to form in the other mare's crotch, growing bigger by the second.

Twilight concentrated, and soon felt as just above her pussy was getting very warm and... felt like it was stretching, expanding. As she looked down, she saw her magic encasing her whole lower belly – and a lump starting to grow out of her crotch. Right on schedule.

"T-Twi! What're ya doing?! Are y' OK?!"

"It's OK Applejack, I promise you'll like this when I'm done. Just...bear with me. Consider this your Hearts and Hooves Day present."

"B-But what're ya..."

"Just relax Applejack. Trust me, it's OK, really. This is supposed to happen."

Applejack was very uncomfortable, but all the same nodded as she watched the expansion continue. Twilight had never done anything like this before in the bedroom...

Twilight meanwhile started feeling a tingling inside her head, briefly growing dizzy and her vision swimming before stabilizing again - and she then felt like she had something...extra now in her mind. Just as the old book described, it was like it was another part of herself, just...different. More masculine.

As Applejack stared at her crotch, the spell's results were quickly revealed as she saw Twilight had grown what looked like a small pair of testes that were quickly expanding in size, as well as a small, colt-sized sheath now between her legs, though it was quickly growing to the size of a stallion's.

"Twi, wut tha hay...is that...?" Applejack asked, staring at the still-growing mass growing on her underside, "... is 'at what Ah...think it is?"

As she reached the final stages of the spell that required less concentration, Twilight's horn dimmed a bit from the brilliant glow it was giving off before and she opened her eyes, quickly meeting those of her mare-friend. "Mmhm, it is. That spell that I found was to give a mare a stallion's 'equipment' temporarily in order to create male gametes, then transfer them to a female in a 'natural' way. So the two mares could make the foal they so wanted together."

"But...how...an' why now? We ain't wantin' foals yet..."

Twilight giggled as the spell completed and her horn grew dark, leaving her now endowed with a full set of stallion genitals. "How isn't important. Lots of complicated magic and stuff you wouldn't understand, not to sound condescending. As for why...isn't it obvious?" Twilight asked, bringing a hoof to rub on the sopping wet mess that was her marefriend's pussy, earning her an instinctive grind against it; "Spring is here, and you know what happens to mares during it....since you're currently experiencing it."

"But Twi, Ah ain't ready t' have foals yet. We ain't even married. Plus, this is...this spell is so...weird. Fer cryin' out loud Twi, y'all have a cock!"

"Yes Applejack, I have a penis. Admittedly, it's kind of strange for me too, but I know I can help your heat with this spell." Twilight paused, rubbing her marefriend's slit more and earning a moan, before continuing; "Regarding having foals, I know how important that being married before having children is to you Applejack, and that's why I'm happy to say that this spell comes in two varieties; the original version, which allows for the production of virile sperm for procreational breeding, and a modified variety made later by somepony else which does not and only produces sterile semen, for recreational sex and heat-quelling."

Applejack shifted eagerly as Twilight focused more on her clit, whimpering softly in pleasure; "So, in short, this version of the spell can be used as basically a...living sex toy for both mares, or as a simple 'heat-ender' in their estruses. As you know, it's the hormones in the semen that ends a mare's heat for a while, and I just know this would be a good way to end yours. For both of us..."

"So Ah ain't gonna get preggers if we have sex with that? Like, no chance at all?" Applejack asked as she pointed at the very obviously swollen sheath between her marefriend's legs, Twilight having stopped rubbing her so she could speak coherently.

"Nope, no chance at all. The testes and ejaculate are one-hundred-percent sperm-free, as testified by many mares who've 'tested' the spell, and every one of them came away without foal...except those who cast the wrong version..." Twilight explained, "...and I checked the spell again just last night, so it's for sure the right version I cast."

Upon that confirmation, her instincts already starting to burn as she saw 'it' just peaking out of the sheath, she felt another twinge of nervousness; "Twi, this is real...weird, i'n'it?" Y'feel alright?"

"Well, flesh-molding magic usually is pretty weird, especially those created by one pony alone. But I feel quite fine really, if a bit hornier than usual...and in a different way," Twilight comforted, meanwhile giving her bulging sheath an experimental rub, her hips shifting upward again in reaction, "Applejack...do you want to try this out? If not, we can just use the toy like you asked. I just wanted to make sure this spell would work properly on myself first, that wouldn't hurt either of us if we ever decided to use the other version later for...its original purpose. I can safely say it works," Twilight paused, then gave a nervous smile, "Plus, I kinda...wanted to make your first time something more special than just a dildo..."

Applejack squirmed over to her mare-friend and got a closer look at what Twilight had given herself, all this talk of having foals and penises and cum getting her breeding instincts all riled up. The sheath was the first thing that caught Applejack's eye, knowing that within that light-purple-furred flap of skin was a penis.

A penis, on Twilight...who was her mare-friend.

A penis that her body craved on a very deep level.

Next, her gaze traveled lower to the tightly-cinched sack of skin and the two large, oval shapes it contained, the spell also having given Twilight a pair of sizable balls in addition to produce sperm...even if they wouldn't this time. "Wow Twi, so y' really got all of a stallion's 'equipment', huh...?" Applejack asked, feeling a twist of arousal as she picked up on a faint stallion's musk as she got closer to Twilight's new addition, with its bold odor adding on to the soft, sweet arousal Twilight always gave off. "This is...well, this ain't what I was expectin' when we came up here. It'll sure be a 'special first time' if 'at thang works like it's supposed t'."

"Yep, every organ and gland a stallion has, I do too now," Twilight said, and felt a new need growing in her as she smelled Applejack's heated scent so near to her. Sure, Applejack's arousal usually added to her own as she smelled and tasted her mare-friend when she was a pure mare, but this was different. Twilight felt a new urge to find the aroused, fertile mare and mount her; to fill her full of her seed and breed her. "Ah, so that's what the book meant when it said you'd 'become one with the stallion inside you'. It seems this spell comes with a stallion's instincts as well." she commented, feeling a stiffness starting peak out at Applejack's heated scent again, the farm-mare's pheromones calling to her newest base need; "You smell amazing..."

"Well, uh, thanks. You do too..." Applejack said, and she wasn't kidding. The stallion musk Twilight's addition was now producing was setting her need on edge, making her feel very horny now that her body sensed a 'male' in her proximity. She was still nervous about this, with it not only being her first time having something inside her and having actual sex while she was quite fertile, but she knew she could trust Twilight with everything, and that this spell would only do what she wanted it to. She also knew Twilight would never hurt her or go against what she wanted, and that's why she decided to give her virginity to her now...even with Twilight sporting a real penis, formed from a spell originally intended to make foals, and balls to produce sperm. She was going to let Twilight have sex with her, cum deep inside her, and end her heat, and wasn't worried in the least about anything.

"Twi. Ah want... Ah want you t' put that big...huge ol' dick in me." Applejack said as she squirmed, the burn in her belly starting to grow now. Instead of receiving a stallion-sized cock inside of her however, Applejack gasped softly as a large purple dildo was suddenly brought into her sight, easily twelve inches long and five in circumference; its length was a good few inches above the average stallion's, that's for sure. It was a completely anatomically-correct model, including a medial ring at its three-quarters point and a pair of artificial testes at its base. "First, maybe we should warm you up with this..." Twilight said, knowing full well she wasn't ready herself yet, her own length only at half mast; "...but maybe, um...you could touch me? Down there, to help with the...erection?"

"Dang Twi, is 'at a dildo, er a buckin' tree?" Applejack joked as she looked at the dildo, meanwhile doing as asked and running a hoof over Twilight's dong, getting a gasp from her and another upward shift of her hips.

Twilight clopped her hooves together softly in excitement, the prospect of sharing her most intimate possession, and herself, with her marefriend now at the forefront of her desires. "Wow, your hoof feels amazing on my sheath..." Twilight cooed, her hips shifting upwards slightly with each downward rub, grinding up against it and feeling twinges of pleasure each time.

"Twi, can we...y'know..." Applejack asked a few moments later, grinding against the toy in her arousal now, though the external stimulation was doing little to properly sate her need, "...get on with it?"

"Alright, just lay however you're comfortable. I'll accommodate." Twilight said, then watched as Applejack quickly got into position, laying on her side on the bed and her forehooves beside her, her legs spread wide and putting everything on display. Applejack's slit was already swollen in her excitement, the titillation of the earlier rubbing by Twilight only fanning the flames. Twilight was more than interested herself at the sight Applejack presented her, and she moved so she was laying with her crotch presented to Applejack, also allowing her to see the other mare's crotch. As an orange hoof quickly made its way down to her penis, she felt it touch her again as she started watching Applejack's clit lightly winking to her in anticipation.

"Oh wow..." Twilight gasped out as Applejack's soft hoof touched her peeking glans, her hips shifting forward as the hoof tentatively started rubbing the flat of the head, Twilight feeling her shaft twitching. The sensation was intense, like Applejack was rubbing her clit, but in a different place. "...the glans is...really sensitive..."

Applejack stopped rubbing. "Y'alright?" she asked, instantly receiving a nod.

"N-no, I'm fine. Just...treat it like my clit. Not too much at first, OK?"

"OK Shug. Oh! Yer growin'!" Applejack said, indeed seeing more of Twilight slipping out at the gentle rubs she was giving, giving a lustful smile as she felt her cock growing harder under her hoof with each throb. "Ya look real nice down here..."

Twilight's shaft was a light pink, with a deep-lavender mottling as it reached the base, a thick medial ring in its center. It was actually fairly average in length judging from its current state, and as it engorged more from her rubbing, Applejack saw that it stayed that way, with it being eight inches long at its full hardness, though looked a bit more slender than other stallions' that she'd seen. She kept rubbing along the shaft as she started hearing Twilight lightly panting now, feeling her fully erect now.

"Well, your hoof feels as lovely as ever..." Twilight cooed, nuzzling up against Applejack's belly, making the mare beneath her sigh softly.

After some more gentle rubbing on the length before her, and some more light teasing from Twilight's dildo on her own needing marehood, Applejack was beyond ready, her lower belly burning rather unpleasantly. She then rolled over and got into a traditional breeding position, her chest on the bed and her rump and tail flagged high in the air, ready for her 'stallion' to mount her.

"Hey, uh, Twi? Y'just gonna lay there teasin' me, or ya gonna put it in me already?" Applejack asked somewhat impatiently, the lewdness surely getting Twilight's attention and making her tense a bit.

"Are...are you sure about this Applejack. I mean, this is your first time right, and everypony knows what happens the first time? I mean are you sure—"

"Twi, Ah know exactly what Ahm gettin' into, and Ah want you t' be the one to pop mah cherry. Now, jus'...go slow at first. Ahm a tough mare. Ah'll be fine."

Twilight audibly gulped, and could tell by Applejack's false-overconfident tone that she was nervous as well. "Well, OK...here goes."

Twilight started off by mounting her, getting a pleased sigh as Applejack felt the warm body climbing upon her, the hooves gripping around her sides, and the underbarrel rubbing her croup; it just felt so perfect for both of them. Not entirely sure how to please Applejack in this manner, only having used her hooves and muzzle on her before now, Twilight just went about this in the manner she'd always please herself with her dildo. She started slowly grinding her stallionhood along the entire length of Applejack's slit, receiving a light tremble of her leg at the new sensation.

"A-ah...'at's...'at's pretty nice actually." Applejack cooed, feeling herself winking against her mare's length with each slide over her slick entrance, especially liking it when the medial ring rubbed over her clit, her realizing It felt way better than the dildo had. Twilight just kept rubbing herself gently over her marefriend's messy pussy for a while, coating her stiffness in her warm, thick fluids well to make the next step easier. She even slid herself so the flare went between Applejack's small, pillow-like teats after the next rub, noticing another gentle twitch from her leg at that. She certainly loved it too, and continued it for a short while.

"OK Twi, enough teasin'. Ah want it now." Applejack said lustfully, her hips pushing backwards now in expectancy, wanting to feel what it was like to take a stallion cock. Without another word, Twilight positioned herself so her flare was facing Applejack's entrance and, after missing for a while, lightly pressed against her, watching Applejack squirm as she felt the flat tip on her lower lips. With one final nod from Applejack, Twilight added a bit of force behind her thrust, making her partially-swollen flare pop into Applejack.

Applejack felt...stretched. It wasn't an entirely unpleasant sensation, but it was...strange and slightly painful, like stretching out a cramp almost, hurting a bit more but having the same relieving feeling. "Ooooh Twi..." Applejack moaned out as Twilight kept sliding slowly deeper into her, Applejack feeling as that stretching sensation expanded deeper and deeper into her belly, feeling more and more contentedly filled. It felt so right to her to be filled between her hips like this, to feel Twilight's cock deep inside her.

Twilight felt as she made more of herself disappear into her marefriend's snatch, feeling the tight, slick, and very warm and welcoming feeling of Applejack's insides surrounding her now more and more, satisfying her on a deep, primal level. With that instinctive affirmation, and the pleasured sounds coming from Applejack letting her know she was quite enjoying being filled up by her, Twilight started to let her stallion instincts take over more now. Her hips rocked softly back and forth, each time pulling out some, then plunging deeper. As she suddenly felt some resistance against her pushing and heard Applejack lightly gasp in pain however, Twilight instantly stopped, knowing exactly what that meant.

"Applejack, are you sure—"

"Fer Pete's sake Twi, Ah want this! Jus' make it quick, like pullin' yer off a bandage."

Twilight was hesitant, but nodded. She suddenly grabbed Applejack's tail between her teeth and yanked on it hard as she rammed her hips forward swiftly, in turn hearing a quiet, pained cry from Applejack, noticing her biting the pillow she had in front of her. Twilight winced, even to this day remembering the stinging pain of losing her own hymen, and as such tried to ease her lover's deflowering. Sure it felt really good to be mostly hilted inside that hot, squeezing warmth now, her stallion side smelling the heated mare constantly, and making Twilight want to rut her seed into her, but she was able to overcome that urge. Applejack's comfort was far more important to her than just getting off.

Applejack indeed felt a sharp, stinging pain in her groin as she lost her virginity, but also another, lesser pain at her dock, which she found she oddly focused on more. She was a tough mare however, and the only thing that escaped her was that one surprised cry. "Wow that smarts...one sec..." Applejack stated, Twilight holding still inside her while her body adjusted, and after a few moments more she felt the pain fade, instead being replaced by a gentle light-headedness, as well as the feeling of fullness and pleasant stretching from earlier. Something then occurred to her. "Twi, why'd ya yank on mah tail?"

Twilight still held the hair in question between her teeth, quickly spitting it out. "Well, I thought that if I made a distraction somewhere else, it would help you focus on the lesser pain instead of...you know. Basic psychology." Twilight said, wincing upon looking back, seeing a small amount of red mixing with what of Applejack's fluids were leaving her and pooling on the floor.

"Mmm, well it worked...an' it feels real nice down there now..." Applejack said as she now felt the pain completely faded, replaced instead by a growing...what could be likened to a hunger of sorts. The same kind she always felt during her heats, but much more intense now that she was actually mounted and penetrated. Now that she felt Twilight throbbing inside of her. Now that she felt her heartbeat through her connection with her.

"Y'think y' could start, y'know, movin' now? Ah really need y' to finish what ya started." Applejack asked, and Twilight nodded, starting to slowly, unsteadily thrust into her, her stallionhood easily sliding deeper given how wet she was, and making the prior gently gasp at the sensation. For Applejack, it was like finally getting an itch scratched, but a thousand times more intense, satisfying her on a level she'd never reached with only her hooves, nor with Twilight's hooves or tongue. This was entirely new.

"Whoo nelly, it feels like it's goin'...all the way into mah belly..." Applejack said, her tone one of slight surprise and heavy arousal, watching as Twilight's hips moved closer to her rump, feeling each inch that slid deeper as she did. The sensation of that length of warm hardness being introduced further into her squeezing body, then the extra stretching of Twilight's medial ring popping inside, made Applejack feel complete in a base, instinctive way she'd never experienced before; one she really wanted to experience more, then again and again...

"Yeah, it feels REALLY good when I'm all the way in, huh my sexy little mare?" Twilight asked as she realized she was base-deep in Applejack a moment later, her swollen testes pressed against her mare's soaked thighs and teats. "Wow, didn't think you could take it all your first time...I know I couldn't take all of my toy during my first time, as a filly..."

Applejack was in bliss as she felt her mare-friend's phallus sliding into and out of her, feeling her honey streaming down her occasionally-trembling back legs, soaking her rump and the sheets under her in her arousal. Each pull out and pump in made Applejack's body pulse in pleasure, her mind fuzzy, her breathing shuddering; feeling like she'd bucked a hundred apple trees, when in reality all she'd done is rocked her hips in time, and accepted what Twilight was at first so softly, then so vigorously giving her; meeting each so-deep push, feeling the gently-pulsing member pushing deep inside her with each hilting.

After a few minutes of humping into her sexy mare's warm insides, Twilight slowly increased the pace every once in a while until she reached a pace that rocked Applejack with each entry, making her a quivering mess of a mare; her face and the pillow was covered in her saliva, her rump, hind legs no less soaked with her arousal. Applejack felt a tension starting in her belly with each of Twilight's entries, and each pass of her thick medial ring over her clit, one she was familiar with; her orgasm was neigh. She tried to tell Twilight, but it just came out as a loud, pillow-muffled moan.

"You're getting close, huh Applejack?" Twilight asked, noticing Applejack's winks and rocking tempo growing much more rapid and less steady, her breaths growing heavier and her passage's squeezes on her cock getting more rhythmic, "You ready to cum?"

Applejack tried to reply, but instead only gave another deep moan as Twilight suddenly stepped over her more, standing over her as she shifted her thrusts downward, a sharp bolt of pleasure traveling Applejack's spine as Twi's swelling flare pushed into an especially sensitive place and started to really grind there, her medial ring now rubbing her clit with each shallow entry and exit; "I'm gonna make you cum hard Applejack...then get rid of that nasty heat..."

As she felt a tingling, rubbing sensation on her clit that could only be Twilight's magic, alongside her medial ring, catching it mid-wink and rubbing circles on it, Applejack finally gave a high-pitched whinny as she felt the pressure in her belly burst, her whole body tensing as she then came. Hard.

As she climaxed, Applejack felt something stretching deep inside of her, followed by a pulsing sensation coming from the rock-hardness now hilted in her and no longer thrusting; just leaving her nice and full with something to constantly squeeze on, as Twilight evidently neared her own climax and her glans flared.

Suddenly, Applejack felt a few tiny spurts of warm fluid deep inside her, even warmer than Twilight's length now throbbing along her entire passage, and as she felt that hot pre-cum shoot deep into her, Applejack fell silent. Her whole body trembling as that set her over, and she had the most intense orgasm she'd ever had. Her body was clamping down on the now pulsing, twitching cock inside of her as she heard Twilight cry out in her own bliss at the increased tightness now wringing her stallionhood, Applejack's thick, fertility-telling fluids a waterfall down her quaking legs as her mind went white, her body milking the climaxing stallionhood of what it naturally desired.

After a few seconds of ecstasy, Applejack came back to reality, hearing a deep moan behind her. As she looked back to the shuddering mare atop her, she saw Twilight tensing as she started thrusting at the same speed she'd used during the crux of her rutting, making Applejack rock back and forth with the force.

"C-CUMMING!" Twilight cried, then gasped.

Applejack watched in a daze as Twilight's hips sharply slammed forward into her and she felt the pulsing and expanding deep inside her, hearing her mate crying out once more as a spray of thick cum escaped her and splattered deep inside the procreant pony pussy she was packed and pumping profusely into; feeling her hips rolling on reflex as she continued to slam in and out, making Applejack's own pleasure spike again as her fertile fields were watered, Twilight quelling her heat with the warm boy-goo.

Twilight's own marehood sprayed her femme-cum all over the bed as her slit started winking and her passage started its own contractions, adding a calmer mare orgasm on top of the raging stallion one and leaving her in absolute bliss as she flooded the farm-pony mare's womb with her impotent foal-cream.

After a moment of experiencing two orgasms at once, Twilight slumped down onto Applejack as she continued to give spurt after spurt of her hot cum into the farm-pony's depths. She herself knew Applejack wouldn't get pregnant because of this but her instincts didn't, leaving her feeling quite content and accomplished instead, her urge to plant her seed sated as both mares lay panting, both completely satisfied and sharing their afterglows in silence.

Twilight stayed lodged inside of Applejack, reticent to pull out, keeping the load of her cum deep inside her mare on instinct as Applejack in turn shifted her hips up, feeling Twilight's cum pool around her partially-dilated cervix, leaving her body totally satisfied as she felt some soon trickle inside, ending the burning she'd been feeling.

The feeling of Twilight's embrace, the warm, beautiful and lovely mare atop her and now planting soft kisses on her muzzle then lips, left Applejack feeling quite lovely and instinctively fulfilled, filled to the brim with her mate's cooling cum. Even still, she couldn't help but feel disappointed she wouldn't carry a foal after this, but also knew she needed to keep the promise she'd made to her parents.

"Hey, Twi?"

"Hmm?"

"Yer right, Ah really did love that. Ah love you mah special somepony. Thank ya fer endin' mah heat."

"Y-Yeah it was quite amazing, and I love you too my special somepony. Thanks for trusting me."

More silence, the two were once more locking lips as Applejack still felt Twilight rock-hard inside her even after loosing her first huge load, a puddle of their combined lust pooling between her back hooves as Twilight's flare reduced, as well as their love mixing inside her.

"Twi?"

"Yeah?"

"C'n we do that again? Ah think mah heat's startin' up again."

" Twilight thought, but she only smiled. "You bet your cute orange flank we can!"

"But Ah get to be on top this time."

"Deal."

Woo, sex!

Of Life-Changing Questions, and Answers to Them

Applejack chomped down into a freshly-bucked apple, the crisp crunch sounding out. As she did, Twilight bit into her own apple, both looking out onto the trees which had produced such delicacies from atop the hill they'd claimed as their own. This was their fifth date, and it was late in Autumn now, Applejack just having finished her shift bucking trees and harvesting the ripe fruit, and Twilight having helped her and Big Mac in the field, turning what used to be days worth of work into a matter of a few minutes with her magic.

Applejack was usually a very proud pony, refusing help from friends unless she really needed it, relying on her family to help her out...but that was just it; Applejack viewed Twilight as family now. "Twi, t'day was wonderful. Even hard work's better with such a beautiful an' talented mare beside me." Applejack said happily, cuddling up against Twilight, feeling her wing wrapped around her back as they simply held each other close. Despite usually being exhausted after a day of harvesting apples, Applejack felt only the slightest bit tired, with Twilight's magic making harvesting much easier than it usually was.

Twilight blushed at the compliment. "Well, I'm just glad you let me help instead of running yourself ragged like you usually do." Twilight said, leaning into her stalwart mare-friend, sneaking a breif kiss on the top of her muzzle. "Plus, that means you're still nice and energetic for me..." Twilight said, giving a suggestive glance.

"Now now Twi, none of that right now." Applejack said in a fake lecture, "Ah may not be exhausted, but Ah still smell a mite rank. After all, we did just walk right over here from the orchard an' Ah ain't had a chance t' shower yet."

Twilight simply smiled as she got close and buried her muzzle into the farm-mare's tied mane, finding that she indeed smelled of a hard day's work, but also finding that she was quite alright with that. "I don't mind." Twilight said sensually, her muzzle still buried in Applejack's hair before suddenly she pulled back – and held in her muzzle were the red bands that had held the mane captive.

Applejack felt as her mane fell free, shaking her head so it would go over her back instead of to the side. "Y'know how long it takes t' put my mane up like that?" she asked, looking to the causation of her now-loose mane, the pony responsible still holding her red hair-bands in her mouth and backing them with a grin.

"Oh...about five seconds?" Twilight answered after she sat them down, earning a huff.

"Heh, yeah, sounds 'bout right." Applejack conceded with a smile, before feeling Twilight's muzzle go back into her mane, her nose trailing along her neck now and making her shudder. "C'mon Twi...I'm all sweaty and dirty..."

"What if I said I liked you as a dirty mare?" Twilight asked with a smirk and a more than suggestive voice, Applejack simply remaining silent for a while, not sure how to respond. "Besides, I like your mane down. It makes you even more beautiful to me, if that were even possible."

Applejack shuddered as Twilight started placing kisses on her neck now, small fireworks of pleasure going through her. "C'mon Twi... Ah really need t' shower 'fore we get intimate..." Applejack said, but it was only half-hearted. Before she knew it, Twilight was on top of her now as she'd been rolled over onto her back, softly pressed into the blanket their meal had once laid upon before being swept away in Twilight's magic and into the grass, their apples also long ago dropped and forgotten.

Soon, Applejack felt the soft, apple-flavored lips of her lover meet her own and gave a quiet moan of satisfaction as Twilight laid upon her, their chests meeting and her hooves wrapping around Twilight's barrel. They kissed softly for a while, simply enjoying the feeling of the other's lips on their own, before Twilight tapped Applejack's closed teeth with her tongue, asking permission to enter.

Twilight pressed on carefully, her tongue tracing Applejack's teeth until suddenly the wall of enamel parted as she'd wordlessly requested, her tongue suddenly pressing deeper into her mate's maw now. Twilight moaned softly as she felt Applejack's tongue start to duel with hers, that flexible muscle against her own bringing a whole new world of sensations to her as she felt her back tingle, her wings flaring up on reflex as Applejack let out a quiet moan of her own in turn as she started grinding up against her.

Ever since she had used that weird, but REALLY wonderful, penis spell on herself and had sated Applejack's heat with it, she realized Twilight had gotten much more physical with her as of late, and much more open about some things about herself that she'd usually keep hidden, even with her best friends.

They'd talked about their hopes and dreams, their deepest desires, and their darkest secrets since that day of such close bonding. Twilight even admitted to her that she had a phobia of quesadillas, and though Applejack had no idea how anypony could fear a delicious, cheesy snack such as that, she accepted it as just being part of who Twilight was.

In present times, as their make-out session ended after only a few minutes, Twilight finally rolled off of Applejack, leaving the orange farm-mare panting softly as she herself was. "Wow, that was great...as always..." Twilight said, then feeling a pair of strong hooves pulling her down to lay beside their owner and giving a quiet 'oof' as she'd softly hit the blanket. Applejack and Twilight both felt like they knew everything about the other, physically and otherwise, but Applejack wanted to know one more thing – or at least confirm it – before asking Twilight that question she intended to today.

"Hey Twi? Yknow when we, well, 'did th' do' while Ah was in heat?" Applejack said, receiving a nod from Twilight, with them now holding a dreamy expression at the steamy memories, their eyelids hooded as they stared into each others eyes; "Well, Ah was thinkin'...do y' really wanna have foals with me, like that? After we're married 'a course. Ah've always wanted to have a large family ever since I was a li'l'un, and Ah wanted to make sure that was OK with y'all."

Twilight laid and thought for a while, before nodding. "I've always wanted to have a foal or few myself, but never really gave it any active thought given all of my other responsibilities; from my studies, to saving Equestria time and time again, then to my princess duties, I've never really had a chance to just settle down and consider motherhood. But yes, I do want to have foals one day."

Applejack smiled and nuzzled against her, with Twilight wrapping a hoof around her crest in response and squeezing her against herself. "Ahm glad t' hear that." Applejack said, "That'll make this that much easier knowin' that." the farm-mare then stood and went to the picnic basket, lifting the cloth and reveling something she'd kept hidden underneath it until now; a thin and long red box, knowing what it contained could very well change their life forever as she took it out carefully.

Twilight was somewhat disappointed by the loss of her lover's muzzle and warmth against her, but her curiosity overwhelmed her as she saw Applejack walk over to the basket. As she saw a thin, long box be removed however, she quickly found her desire to know what it was grow.

Applejack then came over with the box in her mouth, before setting it down in front of Twilight. "Twi, Ah have somethin' very important t' ask you." she said, then kneeling before Twilight. Applejack then opened the box, revealing a medieval-style bracelet studded with diamonds and a single emerald in the center. Twilight was stunned at what was transpiring so suddenly, as there in front of her was an antique Earth-Pony engagement bracelet, its olden-Earth-pony style distinct from any other jewelry ever produced, reproductions notwithstanding.

Applejack cleared her throat, then looked into her mare-friend's eyes, bracing herself for what she was going to say, butterflies dancing in her stomach. "Twi, these past years Ah've been your friend, and these past months Ah've been your mare-friend, have been the best times of mah life. Ah've never felt so loved, so accepted, by anypony as much as by you. You've taught me so much about mahself, and showed me so much about you, and everything you've shown me about yerself has only made me love you more. You helped me when Ah needed somepony but was too stubborn t' ask, you've saved mah life countless times, you've showed me so much love..." Applejack paused as she realized she was tearing up, seeing Twilight's eyes also starting to water.

"Twi, what Ah wanted t' ask you today...is this. Princess Twilight Sparkle, would y' do me th' great honor of acceptin' me, this simple farmer gal, as yer wife?" Applejack asked, giving a warm smile as she did despite being beyond nervous, her heart nearly thumping through her chest. As Twilight remained silent, a shocked expression on her face for quite some seconds, Applejack started to grow anxious, shifting in place. When Twilight suddenly, virtually body-slammed her in a tight hug, and Applejack felt her muzzle mash against hers when they hit the ground with Twilight on top, she found their lips meeting as she started kissing her passionately, and knew her worry was for naught.

They continued kissing for a while, Twilight not wanting it to end, holding her lover close to her as such an important decision was made. They lay together, with Twilight atop Applejack, as the prior met eyes with her love, her tears of joy dripping down on Applejack's muzzle.

"Applejack, I wouldn't want anypony else in the world than you to call my own. I love you so much...yes, yes, YES I will be your mare." she said, and at that Applejack's own tears started falling as she reached up and pulled Twilight into another deep kiss, before it softened to a more gentle one shortly. A kiss of soul-mates.

Eventually, they released each other from their embrace, if reluctantly, the flavor of each other on their lips still fresh in each others mouths. Applejack soon removed the bracelet from the box, lifting Twilight's hoof with her own and slipping it onto her fetlock. Twilight then gripped Applejack tightly in a hug as they sat, wrapping her wings around her back as she held her fiancee close to her, as she now always would.

"You know..." Twilight said, giggling softly, "I was going to ask you to get today too. I even have the horn-ring my mom and dad were married with on me..."

"Oh really?" Applejack asked, chuckling softly; "An' jus' how am Ah supposed to use a horn-ring with no horn?"

Twilight lit her horn and a small gold ring appeared around her neck on a gold chain, a sizable diamond in its middle. "Well, I thought about that. I know engagement necklaces are a Pegasus thing, but I was hoping it would be OK despite that. I know how important tradition is to you."

"Twi, ain't nothin' more important t' me than you, even if it means breakin' a tradition. 'sides, it's beautiful, just like mah fiancee."

"Mine too." Twilight said as she then slipped the necklace over Applejack's neck and secured the clasp, only to be met in a soft kiss. They held each other for a while more as they kissed softly, now symbolically bound as one; as a ring circles itself and a bracelet traces its own curve, their love was never-ending.

Yay engagements!

Of Revelations: Part 1

The best friends sat around a table of Sugarcube Corner, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity and Rainbow Dash all sitting in a booth, chatting amiably as they awaited their other two friends. Applejack and Twilight had asked them all there for an important announcement, and were apparently running late to the meeting.

"Ooo! I wonder what they're gonna tell us! I wonder what the big news is!" Pinkie exclaimed, softly bounding about with a tray of cupcakes and cups of lemonade, offering her friends some food and drink 'on the house' while they waited.

"I bet it'll be totally awesome. Oh-mi-gosh, what if they got us all Wonderbolt tickets!? The next race is going to be in Ponyville after all!"

"Oh, I don't know darling, but it sure is nice to see you ladies again. Speaking of, how have you been Fluttershy? Is that bird with the broken wing you told me you were caring for earlier this week alright?" Rarity asked, looking to the named, butter-colored Pegasus.

Fluttershy smiled brightly, as she always did when asked about one of her animal friends. "Oh, um yes. Mr. Tre-beak is doing just fine. Matter of fact, he should be ready to release tomm—"

Fluttershy was interrupted by the door opening, and the two missing friends from the group stood in its threshold. Twilight looked upset over something while Applejack looked somewhat sheepish and rather nervous.

"OH MY GOSH THEY'RE HERE, THEY'RE HERE!" Pinkie exclaimed excitedly, and such was proceeded by a loud Party-Cannon explosion, showering the two mares in streamers and multi-colored bits of confetti as they arrived at the table.

"Yeah, we're here...finally." Twilight said in a low tone, giving Applejack a sideways glance as she shook confetti from her mane, "We just had some...disagreements on the way is all."

Applejack remained silent as the two then approached the table, before sitting down next to Rainbow Dash, Twilight taking the seat next to her.

"So, what is this big news you two wished to disclose to us?" Rarity asked, always one for the local gossip, especially if it was something really juicy – and something told her this definitely would be.

After a moment of silence, having looked over to Applejack and receiving a nod and a sigh from her, Twilight smiled. "Well, girls, Applejack and I wanted to announce that we're engaged!"

The silence of the next moments were palpable as the news was taken in, before another burst of confetti and streamers coated the two mares. As though that party cannon's burst was the cork shooting loose from a bottle of champagne, the excitement of all of the remaining friends came bubbling up and spewing out.

"OH-MI-GOSH-THAT'S-AWESOME-WHAT-COLOR-DRESSES-ARE-YOU-GONNA-HAVE?! OOO THEY SHOULD TOTALLY BE PINK!"

"Aw yeah! Knew you two love-birds would tie the knot eventually once I learned you were dating! Congrats AJ, Twi!"

"Yay! Congratulations!"

"Darlings, I positively could not be happier for you two! Oh, but Pinkie's right; what color dresses shall I make you?! Oh, and your coiffures..."

Twilight simply beamed at their friends' reactions to the happy news while Applejack continued to look nervously to her soon-to-be wife, with Twilight simply placing her hoof comfortingly around her in a hug, holding her close. She could feel her lightly trembling.

The most sensitive among them to other ponies' feelings, Fluttershy noticed instantly something was wrong with her farm-mare friend, getting up and walking over to her, placing a comforting hoof on her shoulder. When Applejack looked up at her, she smiled, Fluttershy's features as always beaming like a miniature sun as they did whenever she smiled. After comforting her for a moment, she sat down beside her, nuzzling comfortingly into Applejack's shoulder as she did. She too noticed Applejack was nearly trembling.

"Applejack, is something wrong?"

That softly-spoken question struck the usually-strong mare like a brick through a Japonies vase, shattering her just-as-thin veil of confidence she was putting on. She quickly turned to her mate, burying her muzzle into the crook of her Twilight's neck and muzzle, hiding her face as well as she could under her fiance's mane as her tears started to flow.

All five ponies simply sat there dumbfounded as Applejack seemingly had an emotional breakdown of sorts; soft, restrained sobs coming from her mostly-obscured face, streams of wetness streaming down Twilight's chest as her and Fluttershy's hooves wrapped around her in a comforting group hug.

After a while, her reserves seemingly dried up, Applejack pulled her muzzle from its temporary cocoon, wiping her wet muzzle with a hoof—something that still, even given the situation, made Rarity cringe in disgust—before looking over all of her friends' concerned faces, her eyes then settling back onto her lifemate's.

"Y-Y'all ain't upset 'bout us gettin' hitched?"

The question came out of seemingly nowhere, the voice emitting the question one that the girls had never heard before; a shadow of their friend Applejack's voice, steeped in self-consciousness and fear.

"Why ever would we be upset at such wonderful news?" Rarity asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, what gives AJ? What's wrong?" Rainbow Dash chimed in, even the rock-hard mare upset seeing her friend like this.

Applejack finally wriggled herself from the comforting embrace of her friend and lover, with both letting go at the prompt. Applejack then took a deep breath, and began;

"It's just...when Ah was a school filly, there were these two fillies who was real, real close friends ever since they'd met in kindergarten. As th' years went on, Ah could see them gettin' closer an' closer e'ry year, seein' that they really loved each other. Finally, in high school, it finally got out the two mares were lovers an' had decided t' get married."

"Long story short, they grew t' be th' laughin' stock of th' class, heck, th' whole school. Everypony hated them from then on; teasin' 'em, callin' 'em 'filly-buckers' er 'cunt-licker', real awful names. Them mares lost everythin' – all their friends, all their respect – jus' fer lovin' each other and both bein' mares."

"Darling, what does that have to do with you?" Rarity asked after a short silence, her eyes wide with concern for her.

"Ah...Ah jus' thought...th' same thing would happen to Twi an' Ah with y'all when we told ya; that ya would hate an' belittle us fer lovin' each other as two mares."

"Applejack..." Twilight said, hugging her fiance close in a hug, nuzzling into her cheek, soon after joined by the other eight arms of their best friends; "I told you...our friends would never hate us because we love each other. Those mares back then in your school lived in a much less understanding time, when mares being together was considered wrong, even evil."

"B-But..."

"Applejack, does it look like our friends hate us for loving each other?" Twilight then asked, nodding circularly to the group-hug surrounding them, all of their friends with concerned looks on their faces.

"Well no, but..."

"Darling, we love you two no matter whether you like stallions, or mares, or even both. We'll love you no matter what."

"We love you Applejack and Twilight, no matter who you take as your special somepony."

"Ditto! Applejack, it's awesome you and Egghea—I-mean-Twilight love each other."

"Yep! We love you Applejack, more than apple fritters! Well, more than apple fritters, but apple brown-betty on the other hoof—no...not your auntie, silly Applejack!— well...you're in a close first..."

After their overwhelmingly positive responses, though slightly less-so from Pinky – the exact opposite of what she'd been expecting, and what she and Twilight were arguing about on the way here – Applejack finally cracked a genuine smile as her friends unwrapped their hooves from around them and settled back into their previous seats—or in Rainbow's case, hovering position beside the table—with only Twilight left still hugging Applejack, nuzzling against her comfortingly.

"Well, this ain't what Ah expected... thank y'all so much..." Applejack said again, her voice cracking as she forced the last part out, once more feeling hot tears running down her cheeks as she nuzzled into her mare's soft coat.

"I told you they'd be happy for us." Applejack heard whispered to her, followed by a lavender-colored muzzle softly kissing the ear it'd just whispered into, "I love you..."

With her fear of rejection overcome, the next few hours were a happy blur of celebration for Applejack, Twilight always by her side as much cider was drunk and many cupcakes were eaten as the group talked about plans and dreams for the wedding Twi and Applejack had planned for within a few months. As they'd talked, Applejack had asked Pinkie to help with procuration of the reception's food and their wedding cake, as well as to be one of her brides-maids, and Rainbow Dash to help provide the entertainment and be her second brides maid.

Twilight had meanwhile asked Rarity to provide all of their dresses and be her first brides-maid, then asked Fluttershy to provide music and be her second brides-maid. All mares happily accepted their requested tasks and positions of honor, smiling brightly at the idea of being part of such an important part of their best friends' lives.

Sorry if this got a little over-dramatic. The idea popped into my head and I just had to run with it. I'm such a drama queen sometimes.. :duck:

Of Revelations, Part 2

Twilight and Applejack sat inside Sweet Apple Acres' humble dining room; not for the first time, and certainly not for the last sharing a meal together with the Apple clan again, their bellies soon to be happily stuffed with country-style viddles; meals that Twilight could never quite understand how something so simple to make could be so delicious.

"Boy-howdy Granny, y'sure did go all out t'night didn't ya?" Applejack asked, looking over the grand spread that would be more fitting on the ruling Princesses' royal banquet tables rather than their humble dining table.

"Aw when Ah heard dear Twilight was comin' over fer supper, Ah couldn't help but make 'er somethin' special," Granny said, smiling to the named. Since she and Applejack had started dating, Granny had started viewing Twilight more and more like a long-lost granddaughter, treating her to special treats, and like one of her own kin; something that Twilight had only too happily accepted.

"You didn't have to Mrs. Apple, but thank you," Twilight said with a smile, before Granny Smith then waved her hoof over the table.

"Ain't nothin' sweetie. Go 'head an' dig in, y'all look hungry!"

Near the end of their meal, Twilight looked over to Applejack and gave a gentle cock of the head, and received a nod. At that, Twilight levitated her fork and gently clanged it on the glass cups, both of which the Apples reserved for special occasions, or visiting guests of honor. As she was a Princess by title, she was always treated like royalty, despite always requesting not to be.

At the gentle tings of metal on the glass breaking the silence, the other family members' ears perked up, all looking to Twilight, who then smiled and placed the fork back down. "Excuse me if I'm interrupting anything, but Applejack and I have something we would like to tell you," she said, looking to her fiance and smiling. Both then stood.

"We're gettin' married!" Applejack said suddenly, looking over her kin's faces as she did. She saw Granny Smith's and Apple Bloom's faces light up, but Big Mac remained his stoic self.

"OHMIGOSH, I'MMA BE A SIS'ER-IN-LAW!" Apple Bloom shouted in excitement almost immediately after the words had been spoken, virtually squirming out of her seat in excitement.

"Well, Ah was kinda hopin' fer a few great-grandbabies from you Applejack, but as long as y'two are happy, Ahm happy fer you two." Granny Smith said with a hint of disappointment mixed in with her happy tone at that fact; the same she had also displayed to each of them individually when Twilight and Applejack both had asked the matriarch of the family's blessing to marry the other in private. She was indeed happy that they wanted to share their life together, but was upset that their pairing would bear no fruit; it was impossible for two mares to bear foals of their own after all, to her knowledge.

Twilight's own mother and father had reacted much the same when they were told of their engagement, but all of them were assured they'd be getting their grandfoals, and soon.

"Bro, Ah'd like fer you t' be my best stallion, and Apple Bloom, I'd like fer you an' yer pals t' be my flower-ponies," Applejack said, getting a smile and nod from Big Mac as he accepted. Apple Bloom once more nearly fell out of her chair nodding so hard.

After discussing briefly when they were planning on the marriage occuring, and what they needed to do, a thought struck Big Mac."Sis, ain't ya always said ya wanted lots'a foals?" Big Mac asked in his calm, booming voice, looking to his sister, then her chosen mate; " ...an' don't that require a stallion t' make th' foals?"

As this was asked, Twilight opened her mouth to explain exactly how they were going to get the foals everypony so desired, before Applejack saw it in her eyes and put a hoof up, giving a gentle shake of the head to silence her. It would be far too embarrassing to tell her family that Twilight could grow either of them a penis on demand. "Ah can assure you, Twi has found a way fer us t' have foals," Applejack said, hoping it would be left at that.

"Oh yeah, an' how's 'at?" Apple Bloom asked, the ever-curious nature of a foal, regardless of subject matter, making her sister wince. All the other family members leaned in, also clearly wondering the same thing.

"Well...it involves some...very special magic. Le's jus' leave it at that, iffin y'all don't mind." Applejack said, a deep blush forming as memories of just how 'special' that magic could be came back to her...and at quite an inappropriate time.

Satisfied with the promise of them having more foals in the family in time, no matter how strange the idea of two mares having them was to the tradition-based Earth-Pony family, the other ponies relented and went back to their meal. After all, unicorn magic was capable of things Earth-Ponies could never understand, with alicorn magic even more so, so they didn't ask for elaboration.

After dinner and dessert, a home-made strawberry-cream tart, were finished, the family retired to the family room, Apple Bloom having volunteered to clean the dishes.

As they sat and spoke amiably about the wedding plans, the question of where their foals would come from once more came up, this time without the grace a foal present to impede such a mature subject from being explored among adults. "So sis, where exactly are them foals y' were talking 'bout coming from?" Big Mac once more had asked, loving since their foalhood to make Applejack squirm at uncomfortable subjects.

"Yeah, how can two mares have a foal t'gether?" Granny Smith backed him up, herself curious on the strange suggestion. Even if the answer given was one she couldn't understand, at least it would sate her curiosity.

Twilight looked to Applejack, her eyes almost pleading to tell them exactly how the spell worked, but once more received a blush and frantic shake of the head 'no' from AJ.

"Well, ain't like a mare c'n just grow herself a cock with magic, is it?" Big Mac joked, laughing as he unknowingly slammed the nail right on the head.

Applejack went absolutely rigid, then sighed, her family staring at her reaction to the joke. Her expression had told too much to go back now. "Well, cat's outta the bag now. Alright Twi, y' can tell 'em."

Twilight clopped her hooves excitedly. "Alright, well, by genetically manipulating the chromosomes of a mare's lower abdomen temporarily..."

By the mid-way point of Twilight's speech on the intricacies of just how she could use her magic to give herself or his sister a fully-functioning set of stallion genitals, and just how big she imagined Applejack's penis would be if she shared her brothers' genetics, Big Mac's blush was burning hot, making him wish he'd just kept his big mouth shut. The smirk on Applejack's face made the whole situation even worse.

~ ~ ~

The next day Twilight and Applejack headed to Canterlot, having arranged to meet with Twilight's parents, Twilight Velvet and Night Light. The two lived in a quaint Canterlot residence near Canterlot Castle, quite a lovely view of the majestic building making the lot a rather premium-valued estate. "Oh hello dears! Come in, come in." Velvet said as she answered the door and invited the two in, offering a glass of tea to both as she invited them to the living room.

Night Light was sitting at his desk, looking over one of his wife's manuscript or another, before hearing the commotion of greetings and chatter from his wife and daughter, as well as the pony he knew as Applejack and one of Twilight's closest friends, having stood to greet them as well and giving Twilight a hug.

"Mom, Dad, I know you've met Applejack many times before," Twilight said, holding a hoof to her fiance and her parents nodding their greeting. "Well, we came here to make an announcement. Mom, Dad, Applejack is my fiance. We're getting married!"

Velvet and Night were stunned at first, but when the news sunk in both virtually lunged to hug their daughter, knocking heads in the process. Backing away rubbing their heads, the two laughed and Twilight joined in, Applejack giving a few contributing chuckles. Velvet then took the first hug, while Night waited his turn. After both mares received their congratulatory hugs, the most obvious question was asked;

"So, when are you two going to be joined in marriage? Oh, I can't wait for the wedding!"

Author's Note

Protip: don't ask a unicorn or alicorn about magic if you're not one yourself. It'll cost you about an hour of your life, and you won't understand anything they said by the end of it. If it's about sex, you'll be embarrassed to boot.

Of Revelations, Part 3

After a long train ride to Canterlot, Twilight and Applejack stood before the throne-room door of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna in the late evening after watching them raise the Moon and lower the Sun, having asked to meet with them and received permission for a personal meeting. Twilight had originally just wanted to send them a wedding invitation and have them find out that way but she, in the same way, remembered how much it had hurt her to be told of her brother Shining Armor's wedding by a piece of paper instead of face to face. She couldn't do that to her mentor, and indeed one of her oldest friend Celestia, nor her newer, but also close friend Luna.

As their schedules differed – Celestia ruling during the day time, then Luna ruling during the night – the sextet of friends, with Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie also coming along, had been offered to spend the whole day and night there as guests by Celestia until Luna awoke in the late evening. They could then speak to them at the same time, as Twilight had requested, after they had lowered the Sun and risen the Moon in tandem as they did every evening, the only time of day the two were regularly up together for a few hours except when they rose the Sun and lowered the Moon in the morning. Twilight had happily accepted.

Twilight then rose her hoof and knocked thrice, hearing the calm, authoritative voice of Celestia inviting them in. As they walked in and Twilight and Applejack both bowed before the thrones, Celestia chuckled. It had become somewhat of a running trait of Twilight to still bow to the princesses even after her own ascension to a princess herself, and each time Celestia would correct her despite not expecting it to change.

"You needn't bow to us Twilight. You're a princess yourself!" Celestia said with a chuckle, stepping down from her throne and putting a hoof on Twilight's shoulder, then wrapping her in a warm hug. Luna had also stepped down and stood beside her sister.

"Sorry?" Twilight asked, giving a sheepish smile.

"So, what is this news thou wish to speak to us?" Luna asked, always tossing in a touch of Old Royal Canterlot verbiage into her speech whenever she was around close friends or family; just being herself.

Applejack and Twilight looked at each other then smiled, with Applejack nodding to Twilight.

"Well, Applejack and I are getting married!" Twilight said, beaming at the news.

Celestia and Luna were silent for a moment, before Celestia suddenly wrapped Twilight into a tighter hug.

"Oh Twilight, I knew ever since I sent you out to make friends that this day would come," Celestia said happily, still holding Twilight tight to her breast; "the day you discovered more than just friendship. The day you found love. I'm so happy for you Twilight." Celestia then released her, giving her a smile as bright as her own Sun.

Celestia then turned to Applejack. "I wish nothing but happiness for the both of you."

"We are glad of thine decisions to join thyselves in wedlock." Luna chimed in, "We also wish thee only the best together."

"Thank you Celestia, Luna," Twilight said, looking to each as she named them, then receiving a smile from both.

"So, when do you plan to be wed?"

~ ~ ~

After another train ride the next day, having spent the night at Canterlot Castle as invited to, the six friends now stood within the Crystal Palace of the Crystal Empire, Twilight having messaged ahead and being happily granted a meeting with the Prince and Princess of the land; Mi Amore Cadenza, her fillyhood babysitter and oldest friend, and her brother Shining Armor.

"TWILY!" Twilight heard, and as she looked up she realized quickly that it was Shining who had called to her. Once she stepped into the throne room, she quickly found herself being scooped up into a tight hug from her brother, one which she only too gladly accepted and met with one of her own.

"Hi B.B.B.F.F, it's been a while," Twilight said, squeezing a little tighter before finally her brother released her. As he did, she looked over to the other pony in the room, her smile widening even more as she saw the pink-coated alicorn mare who she'd known for her entire life.

"CADENCE!" Twilight cried out happily, with the two then meeting in an embrace, before backing to a hoof's distance from each other.

"Sunshine sunshine, ladybugs awake! Clap your hooves and do a little shake!" The two recited as they went through the motions, ending with their rumps facing each other and a giggle, finishing the song and dance they'd shared since Twilight could remember.

"So, what's this big news you have to give us Twily?" Shining Armor asked once all of the greetings were out of the way, the other four friends having left Twilight and Applejack to deliver their news alone.

"Yes, it sounded really grand! Did you finally find a special somepony...?" Cadence asked, glancing back and forth between Twilight and Applejack with a knowing smile.

"Wait, Cadence...how did you know?!" Twilight asked, baffled. She hadn't told her nor Shining Armor about their engagement, yet she seemed to know!

"You forget Twilight, that love is my special talent. I can sense the love between two ponies the same way other ponies can sense hot or cold, night or day. It's just a part of me. And you, Twilight and Applejack, love each other very much."

Detecting the perfect segway, Twilight nodded. "We do. That's why we're getting married, and Cadence, I'd like for you to be my best mare."

The look of joy on both Shining and Cadence's faces were positively glowing happiness. Shining grabbed Twilight in another tight hug, and Cadence hugged Applejack.

"Twily, Applejack, I'm so happy for the both of you. Of course I'll be your best mare!" Cadence said, her voice cracking, sounding on the verge of tears; "My little Twilight, all grown up..."

Shining turned to Applejack, his expression serious. "Applejack, I know that you love Twilight with all of your heart, and she loves you the same. All I ask is that you love her as she deserves. She's my sister, and I know you'll be honest with and loyal to her. Right?"

Applejack nodded, just as serious. "Y'know Ah will Shining."

His expression lightened, and he smiled, his happy tears now trailing down his muzzle. Twilight noticed.

"More liquid pride?" she asked with a smirk, a little joke between them.

"Yeah, just liquid pride..." He responded with a smile, wrapping her and Applejack in a hug.

"Twilight, from a little filly with her book forts to a grown mare getting married...where did all the time go?" Cadence said, her own eyes watering as she took a turn giving her sister-in-law, her sister, a tight hug of congratulations after Shining had.

"So, when's the happy day you two are to be joined?"

Yay happy times.

Of Heated Desires

Applejack had Twilight pinned under her, her muzzle and tongue rubbing quickly on Twilight's soaked marehood, her hoof rubbing her lower belly and teats. They'd just entered Twilight's bedroom, having gone and seen a movie and had a casual dinner. One thing led to another, and they'd started discussing the last time they'd made love while walking home. This seemed to make Twilight's attitude quickly turn far more sultry, with her more than intentionally starting to grind her side against Applejack's or sneaking a kiss, asking Applejack to follow her to the castle, then almost instantly upon their arrival had guided her into the bedroom.

"Mmmph?" Applejack wordlessly asked, her muzzle still buried into Twilight's swollen lips, trying to gauge her own performance. She only got a deep moan in response and took that as she was doing well, proceeding on suckling on her mare-friend's clitoral hood more, trying to get her to wink again. Twilight moaned again, her head pressed tightly to the pillow as her pussy let loose a flurry of winks, her hips rocking harder as Applejack's tongue made direct contact for the first time with her small, heart-shaped pleasure nub. Twilight really seemed to be enjoying this much more than usual.

"You love eating me out don't you my sexy mare? You love licking my soaking wet pussy so bucking much!" Twilight said in a deep tone, her mane frazzled from her frenzied thrashing on the pillow. This was the most radical Applejack had ever seen Twilight acting during sex, and the most vulgar she'd ever heard her speaking, and wasn't exactly sure how to act about it. So she just kept licking and sucking.

"M-More, oh Celestia more...ooooh yeah, suck on my clitty!" Twilight moaned out, her hooves atop Applejack's head as she lay on her back and grinding her crotch somewhat roughly into her muzzle, an extensive amount of her fluids streaming out around it as Applejack did her best to keep up with her demands. She'd just recently started licking and suckling on her clit exclusively, feeling it winking in her mouth and slathering the sensitive nub with her tongue whenever it did. Twilight really seemed to love that, as her hooves gripped a bit tighter and her cries grew louder.

Applejack was somewhat suspicious with why Twilight was being so rambunctious this time but before she could think about it too much, Twilight started to roughly push her muzzle deep into her puffy slit again, with the farm mare feeling Twilight's contractions getting stronger, her winks more staccato, before she finally let out a squeal.

"Mmmmmmmmmm-cummiiiiiiiiiing!" Twilight squealed out in a high-pitched tone as she reached her climax, her hooves holding Applejack tightly against her as the latter felt Twilight's entrance pulling inwards on her muzzle, the extra-thick wetness that was released and constant trembles telling her, without a doubt, she had just made her marefriend cum. Harder, and much sooner than usual.

Twilight kept a death-grip on Applejack's head and ground against her muzzle, keeping her buried into her suckling, winking pussy all the while. Her clit was pulsing with each of her thundering heartbeats, Applejack trying to keep it contained in her mouth to please the orgasming mare more and prolong her apparently-enormous climax, but once or twice the slippery flesh escaped her with a wink and had to be trapped again. This went on for a solid twenty seconds before finally Twilight released her and collapsing bonelessly onto the bed, seemingly spent for the moment.

"Aaahn...I r-really needed...that. Thanks...Applejack..." Twilight said between pants, her mind still swimming, and her inner muscles still twinging...but it wasn't enough. She still felt that she needed more, but...after a break. As she lay resting, she'd started softly rubbing Applejack's ears with her hooves, knowing she liked it quite a lot and using it as a physical 'thank you' for pleasing her so well.

"Hey, Twi?" Applejack asked, with Twilight looking down and seeing her off-white mare-cum all over her muzzle as she looked up in response. As she saw the matted fur on he fiance's muzzle, it made the situation only that much more sexy to her, knowing where it'd come from and how it'd gotten there all too well.

"Hmm?"

"So uh, ya enjoy yerself? Y' were gettin' a bit rough there..."

"Oh...uh...sorry. I'm just...really horny I guess."

"Ah could tell." Applejack deadpanned, before continuing in a much lighter tone; "Anyhow, fer mah turn, Ah was thinkin' we could use yer toy on me again tonight?"

The ear-rubbing stopped as she asked that, leaving Applejack somewhat disappointed at losing that lovely feeling and wondering just why she had stopped. "Twi?" she asked looking up to Twilight and seeing the lavender mare's face twisted into a near-manic grin; the face that always told Applejack she'd be getting some really good sex tonight.

"I've got a better idea..." Twilight said as her horn lit up in its magical glow. Applejack started feeling...strange as she did. She felt that just above her pussy was getting very warm and... felt like it was stretching, expanding. As she looked down, she saw Twilight's magic encasing her whole lower belly – and a lump starting to grow out of her crotch!

"T-Twi! What're ya doing t' me?!"

"It's OK Applejack, it's just the same spell I used on Hearts and Hooves Day."

"B-But why're ya..."Applejack asked, but made an uncomfortable whine instead as she felt the expansion continue. She knew this was all very sudden, but this wasn't the first time Twilight, in a heated moment, had cast this spell on herself and gone to town on Applejack. It was, however, the first time it had ever been cast on Applejack.

Having always trusted Twilight with everything, and having chosen to marry her on that fact among the many others, Applejack simply waited for the weird feelings to end; finding the stretching to feel strange and uncomfortable but in no way painful, indeed actually kind of...arousing? After a while, Applejack started feeling a tingling inside her head, briefly growing dizzy and her vision swimming before stabilizing again. She felt like she had something...extra now in her mind now, like an extra part of herself she never knew she had, yet felt like it'd been there all along. That must have been the 'stallion instincts' Twilight had told her came with the spell kicking in.

When the dizziness passed, Applejack looked down at her crotch for the first time since Twilight had started casting, and the spell's results were quickly revealed to her; she saw she'd grown a pair of hefty testes, as well as a bulging sheath now between her legs, the sensations of Twilight's magic yet still gently melding the inner flesh making Applejack feel rather warm and tingly, feeling thousands of new nerve endings formed with each passing second.

"Why, you ask? You remember how you were asking if I wanted to have foals a couple of months ago, and I said I wasn't sure? We were confused about how to go about it, who would carry, and if we wanted to bring a stallion into the mix to stud one or both of us? I was thinking about it again, but...then I remembered we had this spell instead. We don't need anypony else but you and me." Twilight said, and giving a lustful gaze to her wife-to-be; "I've decided I really want your foal Applejack. I want to be the one who carries our baby. I just cast the virile version of the spell, and you will make me pregnant if you inseminate me with it...if you're ready."

"But...we ain't married yet Twi! Plus, how could we possibly have foals if neither you nor Ah are in heat yet?" Applejack asked, overtaken by just how very suddenly she'd found herself in this situation. She and Twilight had been fooling around like they quite often did, she'd asked to use Twilight's toy; now she suddenly had a penis, and Twilight was talking about having foals now, even when there were no signs of either of them being in-season, and they weren't wed yet!

"Well..." Twilight said, lighting her horn once more, and in an instant Applejack was engulfed by the lightly-musky scent of a mare in heat surrounding her, and making her new, now-fully-formed equipment unsheathe and quickly start growing to full mast. "I kind of am in estrus, and have been for a couple days now. I've just been using this spell to hide the physical signs of it like I always do, and using my special dildo to keep myself under control, kinda out of habit I guess." Twilight chuckled. "I can't really hide my horniness around you though, it would seem. The spell can't stop that part, even after lots of Unicorns and even Alicorns tinkering with it over the years. As for us not being married...well we will be in a couple of months, right? I...I really need this Applejack..."

"O-Oh..." Applejack stammered out distractedly, that scent of Twilight's heat awakening something within her that had apparently had come with the spell, that very distinct odor setting her new stallion instincts ablaze, a desire to mount Twilight almost overpowering all other thoughts. "Dang, is this how stallions feel when an 'in-season' mare's nearby? How th' hay do they keep offa us...?"

"Well, I guess that's why most stallions or mares keep away from each other during the heat seas—Oh. Oh wow!" Twilight said as she looked underneath Applejack's barrel, and now fully saw what she'd created as she'd coaxed it out, more than a little lust in her voice as she started to feel the burn in her belly again; the burn that the anti-estrus spell she'd just removed had kept reduced, the sight of Applejack's fully-erect 'gift' quickly setting her breeding instincts alight.

It was big. It was REALLY big, for sure looking out of place even on the larger frame of Applejack.

"Uh, Twi...is it supposed to be this...goldarn HUGE?!" Applejack asked as she studied her new addition, laying on her back and prodding at her sizable new cock, shuddering from the new, weird sensation as she did. Twilight looked over her mare's black-skinned length, finding it entirely black from base to glans, with only a few specks of pink along it. Her balls were fairly huge too, coated in the same orange fur as the rest of her, plumped up nicely in her arousal. Twilight found that it wasn't outrageously big but was certainly very much in the upper range of an Earth-Pony stallion's size, noting that it actually looked a bit bigger than her dildo in both length and girth. That meant it was probably at least thirteen inches long and at least six in circumference, her unflared glans at least seven. Earth Ponies were well known for having thick cocks and flares, and Applejack's was no exception, it would seem.

"Well um, the size the spell makes it is...kinda based on your genetics," Twilight explained, trying not to go into too much detail on the mechanics, "The spell fakes a 'Y' chromosome in the targeted DNA only, so basically...this is what you would have been 'packing' if you were born as a stallion instead."

"Oh. It's uh...pretty impressive in'it?"

"Yep...it's really impressive, I must say." Twilight's voice oozed with lust.

Applejack felt her penis flex again, quite the weird sensation to her, and then turned to her mare. Despite how strange all of this was to her, as the machinations of these kinds of spells wasn't something she could truly understand, Applejack found herself still very horny, and even more so now that her new instincts were urging her to find the nearby mare-in-heat and breed her.

"Did Ah ever say how sexy ya are Twi?" Applejack asked in a deep, husky tone, her new instincts becoming incredibly hard to restrain; her desire to mount Twilight and rut her for all she was worth, to truly breed her, all Applejack could focus on.

"Applejack, I already know what you want, and I want it too. Say it. Say you want me to put your cock in me. Say you want to inseminate, impregnate, and initialize the conception and development of a zygote in my uterus!"

"C'mon Twi, do ya really gotta be all scientific-like 'bout everythin'...it's kinda killin' th' mood..."

"I don't know, I think it's kinda sexy." Twilight said, getting distracted by her love for verbal correctness, before getting back to the task at hoof; "Now say it. Say you wanna knock me up or I'm changing you back to a mare. After all, if you don't want your foals you asked me for..." Another wiggle of her rump, a sway of her hips.

"Fahn. Twi, Ah...Ah want t' put this big...huge dick ya gave me in yer pussy an' rut a foal int' ya." Applejack growled the last part, and Twilight quickly moved to position herself appropriately for what had been offered.

Applejack gasped softly as a large purple dildo was suddenly brought into her sight, different than the one she and Twilight had used on each other a few times now. It swiftly disappeared from her sight, but she quickly felt as it pressed against her still-moist marehood, its flat tip threatening penetration but falling just short. Apparently she'd not lost her pussy in gaining a penis, and Twilight was proving such by teasing her.

Twilight trembled as her heat burned hot, the hard cock in front of her at the forefront of her desires. "Close enough. Now, you earlier asked if I would let you use my toy, and now...you're gonna get it; and love it..." she said, a mischievous smirk on her face, her eyes slitted and her nose lightly wrinkled. The face Applejack loved her to make in the bedroom because it always foretold her taking control of the situation. She loved it when Twilight took control.

"This is my special 'estrus-helping' dildo, however. You see, I enchanted this toy to do some things that the average dildo can't. By manipulating the silicone's molecular structure and infusing it with some bio-organic traits, I..." Applejack kind of tuned it out then. She never intended to be rude, but it wasn't uncommon for Twilight to go on a tangent about one brainiac thing or another; Applejack had learned that the best way to deal with it was just to smile and nod at regular intervals, especially if it was regarding something she could never understand like unicorn or alicorn magic.

"...and then as the enchantment senses the increased contractions when the mare approaches or begins orgasm, it expands the mass of the flare and produces seminal fluid, which is then, and quite pleasantly might I add, ejaculated into her."

That got Applejack's attention. "Hold up now...are ya tellin' me 'at this 'ere hunk a rubber can flare and cum? Like, real stallion cum?" Applejack asked, her eyes wide. She felt herself getting wetter at the prospect, her marehood winking against the toy teasing her.

Twilight easily picked up on Applejack's interest and nodded. "It's silicone, but yep, this thing can fill you up pretty well. It's one reason why I never really seem to show any abnormal horniness when I'm in estrus; the anti-heat spell, and the fact that this big, lovely thing keeps my body quite contented and full of stallion spunk. It's sterile of course, as I didn't make spermatogenesis possible, so I can't get pregnant by it, but..."

Twilight found Applejack liked her idea when she'd started to grind herself against the dildo and made her smirk, then rubbing it a bit harder and earning a quiet moan. "I usually need this during this time of year, and it and I become best friends for a few days until my heat finally drowns out from all of the cum it pumps in me. But this time, I don't need it to end my heat now do I? I've got you to do that now. I've got you to pump me full of hot, lovely cum and make a foal in my belly instead...."

"Speaking of making a foal in yer belly...Twi, can we...y'know..." Applejack asked, now grinding her cock against the bed in her arousal, the sheets not very pleasant though. It didn't feel...quite right to her inner stallion. She needed something more and knew just what it was.

She needed Twilight.

"...breed?"

"Alright Applejack, we can procreate however you want. How do you want me, you sexy stud?"

"'Procreate' huh? How 'bout Ah jus' RUT ya pony-style? Seems like th' best fer mah first time as a...stallion..."

"That's fine by me. An oldie, but goodie!"

Applejack then watched as Twilight quickly got into position, putting her chest on the bed, her rump and tail raised high in the air, showing Applejack her swollen, glistening marehood. Applejack's cock was already completely swollen in her excitement, the titillation of the earlier rubbing by Twilight only making her need to breed her even stronger. Twilight was more than ready herself, with the dildo making its way down to tentatively rub Applejack's own eager set of lower lips, making her clit lightly wink in anticipation.

"Hey, uh, Applejack? You just gonna sit there staring at my vulva, or you going to engage in intercourse already?" Twilight asked somewhat impatiently as her belly continued burning, the demanding tone surely getting Applejack's attention more and making her disproportionate penis flex.

"Are...are ya sure about this Twi? Ah mean, are you sure yer ready fer possibly havin' a foal? "

"Applejack," Twilight stated, even though her voice showed some hesitance; "I know...exactly what I'm getting into, and I want you to be the one to truly take my virginity and make me a mommy. I want you to...'rut' me. Now, just...go slow at first. You have my permission, and don't worry. I'll be fine."

Applejack audibly gulped, and could tell by Twilight's barely-masked tone that she was nervous as well, whether because Applejack was her first real 'stallion', or the sheer size of her cock. "Well, OK...here we go."

Not entirely sure how to use her new appendage, Applejack just decided to do what felt right to her, as she'd always done in matters of the flesh like this. She mounted, climbing up onto Twilight's back and hearing her mare give a pleased sound as she did, and started off by hot-dogging the length of her warm stallionhood along the entire length of Twilight's slit, receiving a light moan from her for her efforts.

"Mmm-mmmmmm...that feels...sooooo amazing..." Twilight cooed, feeling herself winking against the warm rod of flesh now at her pussy with each slide of it over her slick entrance, especially liking it when the medial ring rubbed over her clit. Meanwhile, she kept rubbing the dildo gently over her marefriend's messy pussy for a while, mimicking what Applejack was doing to her own, coating it in her now-profuse fluids well to make the next step easier.

"OK Twi, enough teasin'. Ah NEED you. Now." Applejack said lustfully, her hips pulling backward now in expectancy of thrusting into her mare, as well as against the dildo more, wanting to take a stallion's length into her again...and rut her heated mare as well.

Without another word, Twilight nodded and positioned the levitated dildo so the flare of it was facing Applejack's entrance, lightly pressed against her and watching Applejack squirm as she felt the flat tip on her lower lips again; pressing just to the point of breaking through before stopping again. Twilight then added a bit of force behind her push, making the flare of the toy pop into Applejack.

"Than take me already, Applejack! Breed your fertile mare and get me pregnant!"

Applejack felt constricted by the heat and wetness as her large stallionhood was suddenly forced into Twilight's tight marehood for its first time, figuring by the light tingling on her rump that Twilight had pushed against her rump with her magic and made her go inside. It wasn't at all unpleasant, but it was strange and slightly painful, like being hugged too tight...but in a much more intimate way.

"Ooooh Twi..." Applejack moaned out as Twilight, in turn, kept sliding the toy slowly more into her. Applejack felt as that toy went deeper into her own marehood while her cock was surrounded by Twilight's squishy, ever-kneading innards, adding another layer of pleasure on top. Both her mare and stallion breeding instincts were flaring at the sensations; she was breeding her fertile mare and being bred at the same time, her mind having trouble processing that.

Twilight made more of the dildo disappear into her marefriend's snatch as she felt herself being filled in kind, the pleasured sounds coming from Applejack letting her know she was quite enjoying it, from both parts. Just as importantly, she felt her own need to be stuffed full being sated, the once-burning in her belly reducing to an insistent throb now. Twilight felt even better than her dildo could ever hope to accomplish by far, real flesh and blood apparently impossible to perfectly replicate in this instance, even with advanced magic.

She felt as Applejack slowly went deeper into her, her body crying out happily for each inch that entered; for the warm body atop hers, and the hooves squeezing against her chest. For her mate filling her so full of herself, and soon would be filling her even more so with the seed for their foal.

Suddenly, Applejack became acutely aware of the dildo sliding even deeper into her, it reaching the same depths the other they'd used had many times before but feeling different now that she had Twilight wrapped around her cock, everything feeling so much more intense.

Something else then occurred to Applejack; in the time she'd been recovering from Twilight sinking the toy all the way into her, she'd hilted, her hips working on instinct it would seem and bottoming her out inside that hot, grasping hole. "Mmm, ya feel...real nice..." Applejack said as she now felt Twilight's hot, squeezing innards instill in her a growing...what could be likened to a hunger of sorts. It was similar to the urge she felt during her heats yet different, making her want to take the mare she was buried in instead of being taken herself. "Y'think Ah could start now? Ah...really want to..."

As if to answer, Twilight pulled the dildo out, then started to slowly thrust it back into Applejack at that moment, it easily sliding deeper and making the latter gently gasp at the sensation. "Oh Twi...it's goin' so deep..." Applejack said, and on an instinct she was now unable to contain, she had started to rock her own hips into and out of Twilight, making the mounted mare moan. The sensation of that warm, pulsing hardness being introduced further into her squeezing, fertile body – the mare she loved draped upon her and being the source of that feeling – made Twilight feel complete in a base, instinctive way she'd never experienced before. Nothing that toy could do, that's for sure.

"Yeah, it feels REALLY good when you're hilted in me huh my sexy little stud?" Twilight asked as she 'felt' with her magic that the dildo was base-deep in Applejack a moment later, the fake testes pressed against her soaked thighs and teats, just as Applejack had in turn once again hilted in her. "You wanna get nice and deep in me, and I WANT you deep in me...I want you to put a foal right into my uterus Applejack! Cum in my womb!"

Applejack didn't respond, in utter bliss as she felt the pseudo-phallus sliding in and out of her marehood, feeling her fluids streaming down her occasionally-trembling back legs, soaking her rump and the sheets under her in her arousal. Each pump she now gave Twilight made Applejack's body shudder, her mind fuzzy, her breathing staccato; this feeling perfect as she kept rocking her hips and breeding her mare as well as accepting what Twilight was so vigorously giving her at the same time; meeting each so-deep push, feeling it pressing tightly against something deep inside her with each hilting as she meanwhile humped deep into Twilight, encasing her rump with her stifles each time. She'd established a rhythm of hilting Twilight, then pulling back and filling herself with the dildo, unable to escape the repeated sensations of filling her mare then being filled herself one after the other.

Twilight meanwhile felt her heat being sated, the sensations rolling through her becoming of pleasure instead of unpleasant need, her instincts finally calming down as she was being bred now. She felt as Applejack bottomed out in her the same way that her dildo always did, in a way that would make any stallion's dream come true to get that deep into a mare; loving everything about this as Applejack so deeply, ferally ravished her.

This wasn't making love as they usually did, by any means. This was Applejack BREEDING her, her new stallion instincts apparently overwhelming her. Twilight loved how hard she was humping her and making her whole body rock with each impact, feeling just how deep she was going as her long rod tapped against her deepest depths, the very tip of her flare's process* threatening to penetrate into her womb as she'd asked. She loved how unrestrained Applejack took her needing body as her own, the wet smacks from each slap of Applejack's balls to her soaked ass echoing through the room.

"Y-you getting close Applejack?" Twilight asked some time of pure pleasure later as she noticed Applejack's winks and squeezes, her cock's throbs, and hip's tempo were growing much more rapid and less steady, feeling her balls tensing and her penis flexing hard each time she was hilted, her breaths growing heavier. Knowing from her reading that that meant the stallion was getting close to their climax, the brief expansion she felt inside her with each flex confirming that, with Twilight knowing it was the start of a mating flare; knowing it was going to keep Applejack's seed from escaping her when it fully swelled up at orgasm and instead would force it deeper and into her womb, that fact being one of Twilight's deepest fetishes. "You ready to c-cum in me? Ready to flare and inseminate me?"

Applejack tried to reply, but instead only gave a deep moan as Twilight suddenly shifted the dildo downward, a series of hard throbs coming from her penis as the toy pushed that super-sensitive place she now knew was her G-spot and started to rub there constantly. "I-I'm gonna make you c-cum s-so hard Applejack. Y-you're going to knock m-me up, and I'm going to l-love. Every. Second. Of it."

As she felt a tingling, rubbing sensation on her clit that could only be Twilight's common practice of setting her over, catching it mid-wink and rubbing circles on it, Applejack finally gave a high-pitched howl of pleasure as she felt the familiar pressure in her belly burst alongside the unfamiliar one in her pelvis, her whole body tensing as she slammed into Twilight very hard a few times then tensed up on the last one, leaving herself balls-deep once more as she quickly, roughly met her muzzle with her mare's, kissing her ferally.

As she climaxed, Applejack felt something burst inside her, feeling her new appendage throbbing hard and Twilight growing a LOT tighter around her, knowing she must be flaring inside of her mate...and what a flare it must be, judging by how tight her passage had suddenly gotten! She meanwhile felt the dildo stretching deep inside of her belly as well, followed by a pulsing sensation coming from the toy now hilted in her and unmoving. She knew the dildo was cumming in her, just as she was cumming into Twilight, the dildo and her cock throbbing almost in tandem; what was happening in Applejack's passage almost mirroring what Twilight was feeling right now. Just as the clever alicorn had planned.

Suddenly, Applejack felt a wet heat deep inside her own belly, even warmer than what the toy itself had gotten from the lovely friction it had caused. As she felt that hot cum shoot into her, Applejack fell limp and silent on Twilight, their lips parting as she instead pinned her down and held tight on instinct as her whole body started trembling, Applejack being launched into the most intense orgasm she'd ever had, indeed experiencing two orgasms at the same time.

Applejack's body was clamping down on the now pulsing, twitching dildo inside of her even as she started to pump her own virile load into Twilight's inmost vagina and womb, feeling her flare sealed against Twilight's deepest wall and the very tip of her urethral process* pressed to her relaxed cervix just a bit as she'd hilted. Applejack's mare-honey flowed like a waterfall down her quaking legs as her mind went white at the sheer over-stimulation; she felt as each pulse of cum passed through her penis, and as another thick glob of her seed shot deep into Twilight's fertile, squeezing fields, undoubtedly soon to bear the fruits of their labors within her.

After a few seconds, Applejack came back to reality upon hearing Twilight giving a deep moan of her own as she squirmed and tensed up beneath her, pinned down as she felt the deep pulses of Applejack's warmth now spreading and pooling far inside her belly. "Oh Celestia...f-flare too huge...i-it's...c-cum s-so...h-hoooooot! Y-you're...y-your cum...I feel...t-throbbing deep... warm in my belly...I'm gonna...g-gonnaaaaa—" Twilight stammered out in a rushed verbal collage of unfinished thoughts, punctuating them with another very deep moan. As Applejack looked beneath her, she saw Twilight's head rolled back and felt it press tightly against her shoulder, her mouth open and eyes sealed as only tiny squeaks came from her now.

Applejack then felt an incredible tightness on her stallionhood as Twilight apparently reached her own intense apex and started milking her of the rest of her sperm, putting her in a daze as Twilight's hips sharply arched upward and forced her throbbing rod completely inside of her, every inch of her taken in and being roughly massaged now as she pushed more harshly against her cervix, her process* going into her cervix a bit more and held there, her next heavy stream of cum ending up directly inside Twilight's fertile womb.

Applejack's forehooves simply started grasping tighter onto her mare's barrel as she stood planted and trembling, trying to anchor herself to something in the maelstroms of pleasure raging through her as every drop of virile cum was squeezed and milked from her, her flare's sheer size and Twilight's tight grip on her whole length making anything escaping impossible.

Twilight cried out once more as a spray of mare-cum escaped her, her womb happily accepting Applejack's bountiful load within itself as her inner muscles tugged and kneaded for more stallion-batter to make a foal with, each one making an almost-overwhelming pulse of pleasure roll through Twilight, feeling as the absolutely massive flare stretching her deepest reaches taut throbbed with each squeeze and pulse. Twilight felt her belly filling up quite nicely with the warm, thick, and deeply pleasing sensation of a very generous donation of her mare's virile spunk inside her, the sensation feeling perfect to her deepest animal instincts; her need to be bred and filled up satisfied completely.

After a long while of cumming together, Twilight slumped down onto the bed and Applejack lay bonelessly atop her as the smaller spurts of seed finally slowed then stopped, their lust sated as both mares lay panting, completely satisfied and sharing their afterglows in silence. Applejack remained lodged inside of Twilight, keeping her payload of seed deep inside her mare's womb, her very swollen flare leaving her process* pressed just inside Twilight's cervix as she remained hilted. Her flared head and Twilight's downward angle prevented anything from getting out, and indeed encouraged it deeper instead, keeping it right where it was needed.

That feeling of her cock being totally encased within her heated mate, and the warm, lovely sensation of her own cream-pie held deep inside her own womb from the still-hilted dildo, left Applejack feeling quite lovely and pleasantly fulfilled in every way. "I've never cum so hard in my life. Holy hay..." she said wearily, squirming a bit and receiving a quiet 'mmm' from Twilight, as well as an internal hug on her stallionhood as well.

"Wow...s-so that's it? I'm pregnant now?" Twilight asked herself more than her partner, rubbing over her lightly-domed lower belly from the side as she looked down, shuddering as she felt the warmth of Applejack's seed inside of what was likely her womb, as well as the swollen flare still deep within her passage keeping it all in.

"Maybe, on account a Ah just bred ya durin' yer heat and ya said this thang can make babies..." Applejack replied, letting that fact sink in for herself. She and Twilight were probably going to have a foal together now. They were going to have a foal that was a part of both of them. "Ahm sure our foal will be beautiful, just like its mother."

"It's mothers." Twilight corrected, giving her mate a nuzzle then softly meeting her lips with her mate's, kissing her softly and feeling as the familiar tingles went down her spine.

It was quiet for a while, save for the soft smacks of their lips, until something else popped into Applejack's mind.

"Hey, Twi?"

"Mmm?"

"Y'alright? Yer awful quiet."

"I'm fine, but I...can't really feel my back legs. Is that...normal? Yeah, I think it's normal, especially given your...size...and style..."

"Ah think Ah was a bit too rough on ya..."

"No, I loved just what you did AJ, and wouldn't have wanted it any other way."

More silence, only their quiet panting heard.

"Twi?"

"Yeah?"

"Are ya sure yer ready t' have a foal, iffin ya do get preggers?"

Twilight smirked, reaching back to give Applejack a kiss on the top of her muzzle. "Well, if I weren't, I wouldn't have given you a virile penis and allowed you to ejaculate motile, virile sperm inside me while I was potentially ovulating, would I have? Besides, even if I didn't want foals yet, and If I knew it would feel that good, I'd gladly have a foal just to feel that! Oh Celestia, that feeling when you came inside me... the way it just...swelled up huge and throbbed all that hot cum..." Twilight shuddered, unable to even put in words how good that felt, nor how complete it made her feel to be filled up by her lover in her heat.

Applejack grinned, remembering just how wonderful it had felt when Twilight had bred her during her own heat, giving a gentle moan from the memory. "Well Ah suppose ya wouldn't have given me a baby-makin' dick an' let me rut ya with it if ya didn't want a foal..."

Twilight chuckled; "So of course I wanted this Applejack..."

"Well in 'at case, c'n we do it again? Ah...uh...jus' wanna make good an' sure yer satisfied y'see..."

"Heh. Well, with as much semen as you deposited into my uterus and vaginal fornix, probably at least two hundred fifty CCs judging by how stuffed I feel, I'm certain conception will be initialized within a few hours if it's gonna be...but you just wanna 'rut' me some more, don't you?" Twilight smirked back, before rocking her hips and eliciting a gasp as her still-filled passage easily slid along Applejack's rock-hard cock. "Well, I'm still in heat... and I for sure want more of your lovely cum in me, so yeah...fill me up more. I want another load of your hot cum in my womb, then another...and another..."

As Applejack started rocking her hips again, Twilight moaned, feeling he mate's dick still rock-hard inside of her and meeting each slow thrust with a push back of her own. "Oh yeah Applejack...rut me 'til you're sure I'm pregnant!"

"Oh don't ya worry Princess, Ah'll make good 'n' sure ya get yer foal!" Applejack said with a very dirty tone, pulling her hips back and jamming herself deep inside Twilight again, a few drops of her precious seed leaking out of her and into the huge puddle already beneath them, the roughness earning a quiet squeal of pleasure from Twilight as Applejack once more kissed her roughly, her tongue eagerly welcomed in and meeting with Twilight's.

That night was going to be a very long, and very messy, night.

Author's Note

* – Equine Anatomy Fact: the 'glans process' is a small portion of a stallion's penis that 'juts out' past the actual urethral opening, and actually can meet a mare's cervix upon full penetration, thus enabling the stallion to, potentially, ejaculate directly into the uterus and nearly ensure conception, with the flare preventing semen from getting past.

Supplementary: The above fact is extremely hot.

~ ~ ~

As the planned date of their wedding drew nearer, over two weeks after that lovely night – and the following day – of curing her heat, Twilight and Applejack scrambled to get the preparations in order. As this was indeed a royal wedding, with all of the glamours that came with it present, everything had to be perfect: a fact Twilight was having trouble comprehending how that was even possible. Due to the stress of the extensive list of tasks, 'stress relief' sessions with Applejack became more frequent as the date drew nearer; nearly every day they shared their bed, one or the other taking turns squealing or crying out their passion to the other as they shared their bodies, joining two into one.

Even with Princess Celestia's help in inviting all of the noble ponies, and all the others helping with preparations, Twilight and Applejack were having trouble even sending invitations to all of their family; especially all of Applejack's huge clan.

"Cherry Apple? Lemon Meringue? Have I ever even met any of these ponies?" Twilight asked, receiving a shrug from Applejack, who was licking an envelope and sealing it.

"Y' might've met 'em at one of our reunions," Applejack replied simply, before looking over the address list of their personal invitees and sighing. "Well, only about one-hundred-two to go..."

As this was to be a giant, public wedding with all of the nobles and common-ponies alike in attendance, Celestia told the soon-to-be-bethrothed couple that they were to announce to the masses that their wedding was going to be held at the royal castle soon, including an invitation for all to attend. That, however, didn't mean Applejack wanted to shuck tradition and not send personal invitations to her and Twilight's family as well as their friends.

After over an hour of writing, licking, and stamping, Twilight slumped back onto the cushion she was sitting on, stretching out her cramped muscles – and suddenly her stomach churned violently. Twilight got up quickly and galloped to the bathroom, the sound of a violently emptying stomach coming from it very soon after making Applejack wince.

Twilight had recently been coming into random bouts of sickness like this which just as quickly faded as started, mostly occurring before noon but sometimes late at night as well, waking them both up with her vomiting. Applejack was initially concerned that she had caught a bug of some sort but Twilight simply shrugged it off, stating she had no other symptoms of any major illnesses she knew of. 'It's probably just a flu' she'd said; Applejack wasn't so sure.

After coming back to her fiancee, looking a little wobbly, Twilight smiled weakly. "So, where were we...?"

Applejack looked over at the large stack of over a hundred invitations they'd written out. She was still worried about Twilight every time she visited the restroom in such a way, but she knew Twilight would just dismiss her concerns with an 'It's just a little flu' as she had many times already. "Well, the mail-mare should be coming soon, so we need to hightail these out to her when she gets here. I asked her to bring an extra-large saddlebag for all these invites, and she agreed."

Twilight nodded, levitating the large stack of envelopes in her magic just as the gray mail-mare with the blonde mane and tail came by, smiling largely and looking to them with her wall-eyed gaze.

"OK guys, I got this!" Derpy said, smiling widely as her saddlebags were loaded down with hundreds of invitations.

"Alright Derpy, that's all of them. Thank you so much for doing this for us." Twilight said, offering her a small pouch of Bits as a tip.

Derpy denied the Bits by raising her hoof and shaking her head. "Nah, this is my job!" she said, keeping her big smile, "Well, gotta go drop these off and continue my route! Bye guys!"

After they said their goodbyes and Derpy Hooves took off ladened with their mail, Applejack looked back to Twilight and gave her a smile, sauntering over to her with her tail raised; all but telling her of her intentions. "So Twi, all 'at writin' an' such sure stressed me out..." Applejack said, her tone more than suggestive as she came and sat in front of her mare. Very closely in front of her mare.

"Oh I know, writing names out and signing documents can be so stressful..." Twilight cooed out in the same tone, her muzzle curling up in a smile to match her tone, her own tail raising and starting to swish.

Applejack took the initiative, leaning forward just a bit so that their muzzles met, rubbing noses with Twilight for a moment before finally meeting their lips in a gentle kiss. She was quickly overwhelmed by the taste and scent of her mare, raising a hoof to wrap around her crest and bring her into an embrace. They kissed for a short while – until Twilight suddenly pulled away, her eyes widening in surprise. Applejack watched as she quickly took to a gallop and threw open the bathroom door again, the sound of wretching soon coming again.

"By Celestia, I hope she's OK..." Applejack said, shaking her head softly.

Neither, however, had ever paid any mind to the seemingly-banal sexy talk they'd done for one another while they were sating Twilight's heat those two weeks ago, nor how much foretelling it could hold.

No thought was given to the words they spoke of making a foal inside of Twilight, nor just how possible it was for a mare to become with foal at the top of full estrus, especially with the profusion of virile sperm sent into her fertile body over and over again by their passioned trysts.

After all, distracted by the tasks and duties of preparing a royal wedding, 'it's just a flu'.

As personal preparations completed and the official ones began one week before the wedding, a full month after Twilight's heat ended, Twilight and Applejack oversaw the preparations for their wedding decorations and food, with everything checking out perfectly for its stage of development, both fascinated that no expenses were being spared by Luna and Celestia for their marriage.

Applejack insisted on helping out with building the props and other items and, despite Twilight rolling her eyes at the idea, she proceeded to do just that. Nearly an hour later, with her having tended to other tasks, Twilight nearly had to drag Applejack away from the work area, with her having done nearly more work than the ponies being paid to do it!

"Aw c'mon Twi, those ponies don't even know what they're doin'! They're using hex screws instead'a slot! Y'know how hard it is t' find a hexi—"

"Applejack, I promise I'd let you keep doing those ponies' jobs for them, and I'm sure they'd love you for it, but it's time for us to make the big announcement...to all of Canterlot..." she said, giving a gulp.

Princess Celestia had insisted that Twilight – her prized ex-pupil, Element Barer, and indeed the Princess of Friendship herself – announce her wedding publically as such a declaration be traditionally done, and before a crowd of her subjects. Twilight had initially been against the idea of such a huge, extravagant and public wedding, as had been Applejack, but Celestia had insisted that royal weddings be open to the public and be very befitting of a pony of her stature. Eventually, reluctantly, Twilight had agreed.

"Oh...right...that..." Applejack mumbled out, tucking her hat lower on her brow, "Ah still don't get why bein' hitched's gotta be such a big t'do jus' cuz yer a princess..."

"It's just tradition Applejack," Twilight said as assistants donned on her her required regalia, including a long silken cape and her crown with a faux-Element-crystal star in it that had replaced the real one upon its sacrifice back to the Tree of Harmony,"you know plenty about traditions." Applejack meanwhile was robed in a majestic cape, but insisted on keeping her hat. Celestia didn't seem to mind.

Finally with all preparations set, the trio stepped out onto the balcony, and with one more nervous glance at each other, Twilight and Applejack stepped into the public's view, Celestia and Luna choosing to make their presence as well to provide moral support.

Celestia had earlier asked by royal decree for all ponies to gather in the castle square for an important announcement at this time and date but had neglected to say what it was about. As such, there was a huge crowd of at least several hundred ponies gathered in the large square, all looking upon the two mares on the castle balcony.

Twilight shivered a bit as her nerves got the better of her and glanced back to Celestia, who gave her a comforting smile and a wave of the hoof. "Go on, the crowd awaits your news," Celestia said softly, with Luna smiling encouragingly.

Twilight once more looked over the quietly-murmuring crowd of hundreds, all gathered here to hear her speak. With a loud clear of her throat, the murmuring stopped and Twilight began the speech she'd spent the last two weeks perfecting;

"Firstly, I would like to thank you all for taking time out of your busy day and coming here today to hear my news. Now, I'm sure you're expecting to hear about some great disaster that's on its way, or that we are going to have some other major event. Well, that last part is true; we are going to have a major event soon. Beside me is somepony you may all recognize, a fellow Holder of an Element Applejack, who is also one of my closest friends. Recently, however, we have..."

Twilight froze. Her mind blanked on the next part of her speech, her eyes darting wildly as her breaths increased in pace.

"A-Applejack...I forgot the rest of my speech!" Twilight said in a panicked whisper as she turned to the named, her eyes locking onto her mate's, and Applejack seeing panic going through them; that deep-set fear of failure, even after all these years of boundless successes

As she saw that, Applejack quickly met Twilight in a kiss in front of the crowd, earning a wave of surprised gasps from the crowd. After feeling her mate calm down after the affirming kiss, Applejack turned to the crowd:

"Princess Twilight and I are gettin' hitched y'all, an' yer all invited! Next week, right here at the Canterlot palace! Yeeeeehaw!" Applejack exclaimed, only to be stared at dumbfoundedly by the ponies, quiet murmurs starting again among the crowd, undoubtedly questioning the validity of that over-boisterously presented claim.

Having recovered herself at the sound of Applejack making a mule of them both in front of all of Canterlot, her mind snapped back into place at her part of the speech, and Twilight quickly took her side beside Applejack before continuing where she'd left off.

"We are getting married, it's true! It will indeed be a public event as my fiancee said and everypony is invited to attend provided there's room. A reception feast will also be held after the wedding as well, and it's available to the public too. We will be hosting the marriage this Saturday, and will be performing the ceremony at twelve-oh-clock-noon sharp. We hope to see you there and thank you again for your time. You're all dismissed." Twilight said, trying to rectify what Applejack had nearly destroyed with her outburst.

A gentle, couth applause of hooves sounded before the crowd dispersed, going back to their daily lives with an exciting new topic to discuss.

Twilight stood there with a deep blush on her face, one of both embarrasment...and anger. "What the HAY was that Applejack?! You just turned one of the most important announcements in Equestrian history into a...a pitch for the local rodeo!" Her anger was fuming over, boiling hotter than even when she couldn't figure out how Pinkie Pie's 'Pinkie Sense' worked; unable to control herself as she virtually blew up at her beloved. "I mean WHAT THE HAY Applejack?! I asked for the line I forgot, and you just waltz up there LIKE A MULE and start pitching your ho-dunk invitation! 'Yeehaw, we're gettin' hitched'!" Twilight finished with a poor imitation of Applejack's accent, now glaring a hole through the target of her aggression.

Applejack was stunned still by the sudden outburst of her marefriend, feeling cold and numb all over; but soon that cold turned to the heat of her own broiling anger, making her eyes narrow and her gaze to sharpen into a razor-edged glare. "Well, Miss-High-an'-Mighty, Ah was TRYIN' t' save your purple p'tootie from looking like a right ASS in front'a 'at crowd! Y'alls were sputterin' worse'n Granny's tea kettle on the fritz!" Applejack spat back, no shortage of righteous anger in her voice. However, even still, tears started to form at the corners of her eyes, her trying to hold them back as well as she could to save face.

Twilight was literally blowing small puffs of steam from her nose now as she pawed at the ground aggressively, an instinctive sign of a pony's intense anger and a threat to charge their target. Before she let it escalate any further, Twilight stamped her hoof hard onto the ground and let out a growl of anger before she galloped off inside the castle, leaving Applejack, Celestia, and Luna alone on the balcony.

Finally unable to hold them in anymore, Applejack's tears started to roll down her cheeks as the hurt of her beloved's heated words sunk in, Applejack doing all she could to prevent herself from just breaking down into a heap right there and crying herself dry at what had just happened. Seeing her friend's distress, Celestia went over to Applejack and wrapped her in a hug, with Applejack quickly returning it, tightly wrapping her hooves around the demi-goddess of the sun.

"Ah...Ah don't know what Ah did...w-wrong..." Applejack stammered out through restrained sobs, still trying to keep herself composed even as she was being held by another pony, gently trembling as she practically collapsed into Celestia's form, simply unable to hold herself up right now.

Celestia thought of the outburst from what she'd seen of the quarrel and simply let Applejack cry into her chest for a while as she mulled it over, looking to her sister before speaking up after she gained an idea of the outburst's causation. "Applejack, I don't think Twilight is mad at you, or your actions, nor you at her. Planning a wedding, especially one as grand and large-scale as a royal wedding the likes of Princess Cadence and Shining Armors', is extremely stressful as you well know, especially for the pony with the most at stake; Twilight."

Luna then stepped in and spoke up. "I know it's not pleasant, nor implicitly the correct way for her to do so, but perhaps this is simply Twilight's mind's way of venting her frustrations and anger at an undesirable event – you stepping in to correct her mistake at such a monumental time for her – and your own stress erupting into an outburst as hers did at this huge event in your life on the cusp of happening."

Eventually, Applejack calmed enough to stop her trembles, looking up to the princesses as their explanation sunk in. It made perfect sense. "Y-y'mean she ain't mad at me...? But...that's th' first time she's ever yelled at me like 'at...and me at her." Applejack mumbled out, content to nuzzle her muzzle into Celestia's celestial mane, feeling it lightly shifting with its magical energy as she did.

"Applejack, stress can make a pony do things they would not normally do, even going so far as them yelling heatedly at their most cherished companion. Besides, I've had many suitors and husbands in my life, so who better than me to know that every couple, or couple-to-be, has tiffs like this from time to time. Please Applejack, for both your sake, go and talk to her. She's probably just upset as you are, but has nopony to talk to." Celestia said, with Applejack finally releasing her from the tight hug, fresh tears no longer falling.

"T-Thank ya 'lot Princesses" Applejack said, giving a brief bow before parting ways, moving at a trot into the castle.

"Anytime, my faithful subject. My friend." Celestia replied, but already Applejack was inside. Celestia sighed, then giving a glance to her sister with a coy smile, seeing her smile herself in response.

"So sister, do you think Twilight is..." Luna asked, before receiving a nod.

"Oh you... you and I both know Twilight is, but they will find out on their own soon enough. I shan't spoil their surprise. You know mood swings are part of it..."

Applejack galloped into the castle, tearing through the hallway like a mare possessed before arriving at the room they were invited to share during their visit. "<Please be here...please, please, please...> Applejack chanted inside her mind, and upon pushing open the door her eyes darted through it. Quickly, her eyes focused on the royal tiara dumped on the floor like so much dirty clothing, then followed the trail of other regalia to the bed, seeing a slumped form laying atop it; a furry lavender form with wings and a horn.

Instead of saying anything, Applejack instead walked up to the bed, reaching down to take her own cape off, letting it fall to the floor with the soft sound of crumpling fabric. She soon joined Twilight on the bed but the alicorn didn't turn to face her nor even move, though Applejack did notice an ear swiveling back towards her, showing her she was at least listening.

After a moment of simply laying there, Applejack finally gained the courage to do something. She crawled up behind Twilight and wrapped her forehooves around her shoulders, before the rest of her body followed, Applejack making Twilight the little spoon in a cuddle. Twilight didn't resist nor react at all still, but Applejack could swear she heard gentle sniffles coming from in front of herself.

"I...I bucked everything up, didn't I?" Applejack soon heard asked from a Twilight that seemed nearly despondent in tone, as though all hope were lost, "Applejack..."

Before Twilight could say another word, Applejack grabbed one of her ears softly in her mouth, eliciting a quiet gasp of surprise from her as she felt a gentle tingle roll down her back, effectively silencing her. While a harsher bite on the ear was once a way of saying 'hold still and be silent' by the herd leaders of ancient times when ponies still roamed uncivilized, its modern use of a gentle nip instead was simply an affectionate way of saying either 'hush up'...or 'I love you'.

"Now ya listen here Sweets, Ah ain't mad at ya an' hope yer not mad at me. Princess Celestia an' Luna an' Ah had a good talk 'bout this, an' they explained that our stress over such a big thing as our huge importan' weddin' set us off th' deep end and at each others' throats; ya because Ah interrupted yer big announcement whiles ya were strugglin', an' me in reaction to yer yelling an' my own stress bubble goin' 'pop'. Twi, they told me these...these things happen to everypony in a close relationship."

The room was silent, the soft sniffles stopping as Applejack watched Twilight raise a hoof up and wipe her eyes, before turning over to face her love, her face matted in wetness and her mouth downturned in a pout. "I fluffed this up big time, didn't I?" Twilight asked, not meeting Applejack's eyes; "All I had to do was tell all of Canterlot just how much I loved you, how much I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you, but..." she cut off with a sob, with Applejack squeezing her tighter against herself in a proper hug now, their chests pressing together as each's hooves squeezed tightly.

They simply held each other for a while, simply enjoying each others' company as Applejack softly rocked with her, until finally Applejack spoke again. "Guess all 'at sex wasn't quite workin' all our stress out after all, huh?" she asked with a chuckle and heard one come from Twilight in return, feeling that happy rumble of her chest against her own.

"Heh, I guess not..." Twilight responded, and as the mood perceptibly lightened, Twilight dared to meet Applejack's eyes – and in them saw the same calm, loving, caring look she had always given her since they were first friends, not even a hint of anger in them. This time, Twilight was the one to squeeze Applejack tighter, a smile on her muzzle as she met her lips with Applejack's, feeling her soulmate press into her kiss in acceptance. That acceptance even after how she'd acted only made Twilight's tears fall again, but this time for entirely a different reason.

"I love you Applejack."

"Ah love ya too Twi."

Above them, the Sun shone brightly.

Decided to add a little turmoil to show that no relationship is perfect all the time, especially not at times of high stress.

Also yay foal! :pinkiehappy:

Of Apples and Magic

The big day of their wedding had finally arrived, and Canterlot Castle was lit up as though the Grand Galloping Gala were coming tonight, but something just as spectacular was in the works. After over a long week of preparations, everything was set up for the royal wedding of Princess Twilight Sparkle and Applejack, her wife-to-be.

The throngs of ponies that had come for the wedding were mind-boggling; everypony from cart-pullers, to well-known celebrities, to nobles mingled together in the crowds. The settings were just as lavish, everything golden or otherwise ornate; something that made Applejack somewhat uncomfortable.

"Rares, do Ah really gotta wear this fru-fru dress?" Applejack huffed as she looked over the rather poofy white wedding dress that Rarity had made for her, all the frills and lace and gold making her nearly gag at how gaudy it looked to her. Her mane was also all tussied up in a fashion that she'd usually see on the front cover of Prance magazine, not on her own head. "This ain't exactly my style, ya dig?"

"Oh Applejack, hush. This is the traditional style of Royal Canterlot wedding gown and coffiure that every royal pony since Olden Pony Times has worn to be married in, and it is what the royal seamstresses and hairstylist assisted me in accenting and making. I simply could not imagine anypony not wanting to meet their amore at the altar with this on."

"Well, y'met her." Applejack huffed.

"Oh hush up and hold still Miss Squirmy, I wouldn't want to prick you by accident as I sew this seam." Rarity warned, her magic carefully weaving the needle through the fabric. "Come to think of it, I thought I just sewed this seam not two weeks ago and it fit you perfectly..."

Applejack chuckled. "Well, Ah have been eatin' a bit more as of late so maybe that's why. Must be th' stress, givin' me a bit'a an appetite..."

Rarity looked at her with a small frown. "Well don't get too carried away with it; habitual over-eating is not only uncouth but unhealthy for a mare too," she warned, before continuing her work.

Before long Applejack's alterations were finished, and her dress once more form-fit. It was a large, very stylish gown of Olden-Pony fashion, an old but classic design that showed the regality of its wearer with plenty of gold sewed into the seams. Carets of amber and emeralds both were subtly included in the dress to accentuate and contrast Applejack's natural coat and eye colors, making for quite a beautiful display.

"C'est tres magnifique!" Rarity exclaimed, turning the mirror so Applejack could see herself. "My best work yet, even among the other gals' and my own wedding dresses!"

Applejack was a bit more withheld with Rarity's statement but kept it to herself; knowing that on almost any other mare the dress would look great, but on her it simply looked excessive. "Yeah Rares it's...beautiful..."

Twilight was squirming around in her nervousness and excitement as she had her own simpler, but still fancy, wedding dress hemmed by Rarity, it having a traditionally long train, which would be carried by a pony as she walked down the aisle. Reading over the list of proceedings for what must have been the tenth time, she read them aloud; "OK, I'll be announced, walk down the aisle with Dad and with Celestia leading, Applejack will be waiting at the alter and Dad will 'give me away', and we will then join up there. We exchange vows and wedding trinkets....then Applejack kisses me...and we're married! Simple, right?" Twilight summarized, before going back and re-re-rereading it.

"Darling, it really is not that complex of a ceremony. You're going to put a hole through that paper if you stare at it any harder!" Rarity quipped as she hemmed the dress again, finding it was tighter on Twilight too! "Dear, not to offend you right before your wedding, but you and Applejack should really consider more salads. She said she's been stress-eating a bit, and it seems you are too...if a bit more."

Twilight smiled self-consciously, before giving a sigh. "Yeah, I know. Sometimes I just get really hungry for something, and I've just gotta have it...have you ever tried cucumbers in chocolate ice-cream? It's to die for!" she said, getting a chuckle from Rarity.

"Oh, I know that feeling dear. When I go into estrus and my stallion Orange Sky isn't there to 'help me out with it', nopony better get between myself and my double-chocolate-truffle ice-cream and my watercress-cucumber sandwiches!" Rarity said, with she and Twilight sharing a hearty laugh at that. "Now do hold still dear, the ceremony is in just over an hour. Just remember what we practiced, and you'll be fine."

Twilight took a deep breath then exhaled. "I'm going to do OK..." she assured herself as she looked in the mirror at her reflection, meeting its eyes; assuring herself even if she wasn't sure at all.

Twilight waited in her room, and soon heard another knock on her door. "Yes? Come in." she called out, the door opening and her quickly seeing the head of her old foalsitter, long- time friend, fellow Princess, and recently sister-in-law Cadence pop in. "Hi Cadence!" she called out, smiling and trotting up to her. Cadance smiled in kind, wrapping Twilight in a hug as she approached.

"There's my little all-grown-up mare. I still can't believe you're getting married, even if it's going to happen in a few minutes!" Cadence cooed, wrapping Twilight in a hug.

"Yeah, I know. I just...I can't help but feel that something bad's going to happen today, like it did at your wedding..." Twilight said, looking away. "I mean, the Changelings are still out there. Chrysalis is still alive..."

"Twilight, you have nothing to worry about, especially not about changelings. Not only is the party being guarded by two dozen royal guards and the grounds being patrolled by another thirty, all of the unicorn guards, and Celestia herself, are scanning guests with a changeling-specific spell. If the scanned pony is a changeling in disguise, it'll dissipate their magic and they'll be revealed. Celestia had heavy research done on Changeling shapeshifting magic after what happened at Shiny and my wedding, and that spell is the result." Cadence comforted, giving Twilight a small nuzzle.

"I know, but even if it's not something like a major invasion, what about if I forget my lines, or if I trip. What about if I—" Twilight said, her voice rising, before Cadence magically closed her muzzle, her next words coming out as muffled mumbles.

"Twilight, calm down! Nothing bad is going to happen unless you panic. You've practiced this countless time and have the proceedings memorized, remember? Breathe in... breathe out..." Cadence said, giving her a smile as Twilight did the breathing exercises she'd taught her; "Besides, being all stressed out isn't good for the fo—"

Just then, she was interrupted by a loud series of knocks on the door, as well as the voice of Night Light, Twilight's father, calling in for them to hurry up; that the ceremony was in five minutes.

"Well, that's my cue!" Twilight said, getting up as the dress-train carrier came in and gave the princesses a bow. "I'll see you at the altar and B.B.B.F.F at the reception Cadence!"

"Remember, stay calm, face forward, and try not to bite too hard on the flower stems of the bouquet; I learned the hard way that the stem fluid is really bitter. Most importantly STAY CALM and remember the proceedings." Cadence reminded her, and with that they all headed out to the wedding chapel. "Good luck!"

Twilight waited outside of the main chapel's door minutes later, waiting for her cue to enter when the doors were opened for her. She kept taking deep, calming breaths as Cadence had taught her; kept telling herself that she was going to do this properly. That they'd practiced it a dozen times, and she had it down pat. Celestia was also with her as the officiant of the ceremony, and her father to 'give her away' to Applejack.

As the time came and the doors opened, Celestia stepped inside. "Mares and gentlecolts, I present to you the bride, Princess Twilight Sparkle!"

As she heard the wedding theme start and her cue from Celestia, Twilight bit down on nervous reflex, nearly gagging at the sudden bitter flavor invading her mouth from the crushed flower stems. <Cadence was right, this is bitter!> she thought, trying not to wince and hold her composure as she stepped onto the red carpet lining the aisle, walking slowly alongside her father; Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle took the lead of Twilight, sprinkling the floor with rose petals, her dress's long train pushing them aside as she passed them by.

She walked the aisle cordially, looking around to the huge crowd watching her every step, concentrating hard on making each hoof-fall graceful; on making each one bring her that much closer to her goal. She saw a large assortment of ponies she knew; from celebrities, to ponies from Ponyville, ponies she grew up around in Canterlot, and of course all of her and most of Applejack's extensive family sitting near the front. She saw her mother in the front row crying happily, along with her brother crying alongside her, both sharing a box of tissues as together they spilled 'liquid pride' for her. As her mother and she met eyes, she smiled brightly, her eyes showing happiness that her daughter had finally found her true love.

As she approached the altar, Celestia quickly took her place behind it, with the main leaders of the land the only ones authorized to perform a royal wedding. Despite any of the Princesses or Princes being permitted to perform it, Celestia had taken the right for herself to both announce her and perform the marriage and Twilight couldn't be happier to have her oldest friend, the mare indeed responsible for this even being possible, to join them together. To the right of the altar was, from bottom to top, Cadence, Rarity and Fluttershy; the last of them with a hotly-glowing blush burning on her face, her wings clenched to her side as she shifted in place with her mane covering her face. To her left was Big Mac, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie, with Rainbow surprisingly staying grounded whilst Pinkie bounced only slightly, trying to contain her excitement as well as she could at being part of such a momentous occasion.

Finally, standing in front of the altar and awaiting her was the love of her life, and the pony whose hoof she was going to take in marriage. The mare she loved beyond anypony else in the universe. As she approached the altar the song ended, her father releasing her with a proud smile, she then stepped up and stood face-to-face with Applejack.

Inside, Twilight was an emotional wreck, high-strung as her mind raced through all of the things that could have gone wrong, and those that still could; trying now to remember the odds of a meteor striking during the ceremony. However, as she met Applejack's eyes and saw that small, calming smile in response to her own panicked expression, Twilight felt herself calming down as her near-hysterical breaths slowed, all of her concerns seeming to fade by the wayside as she swam in those deep vistas that were her mare's eyes; that small smile letting her know everything would be alright. Twilight could only look up into her mare-to-be's eyes through the veil, looking deeply into the emerald pools she'd many times before bathed in, almost consumed by them once more before she brought herself back to the surface, letting out a held-in breath of nervousness in a quiet woosh. They would be married and nothing would stop it. Twilight wouldn't let it.

As Celestia looked to them, then to Spike their trinket bearer and got nods from them all, she started the proceedings.

"Fillies and gentlecolts, our esteemed guests, today on this most joyous day, we are gathered here together to join Princess Twilight Sparkle and her chosen bride Applejack in matrimony; two mares who have helped save Equestria countless times together, now to be eternally joined together as one. If anypony has a valid reason these two should not be wed, speak now." Celestia said, and after the resulting silence, she looked down to Spike, "Very well. Without further ado, Spike, the marriage trinkets please."

Spike rose the pillow with the necklace and bracelet on it up to the two brides, with each respective pony taking their trinket.

"Twilight Sparkle, do you take Applejack Apple to be your loving wife, to forever be yours in sickness and health, so long as you both shall live?"

"I do. Proudly." Twilight responded, then looking to her mare, her soulmate; her soon-to-be wife.

"Applejack Apple, do you take Twilight Sparkle to be your loving wife, to forever be yours in sickness and health, so long as you both shall live?"

"Ah do!" Applejack responded boldly, leaving no doubt she wanted this, to be forever joined with the mare she loved.

As Twilight accepted the bracelet upon her hoof and Applejack took the necklace over her neck, Celestia spoke. "With these trinkets, these two mares bind themselves to each other in wedlock. I now pronounce you mare and wife! You may now kiss!"

At that, Applejack lifted Twilight's vail to the stomping applause of the audience, with them gazing into each other's eyes for but a moment before she lowered her lips to her muzzle. Their lips met, to another round of hooves stomping the floor, whistles, and cheers. They held it for a short while as cameras flashed, showing all of Canterlot and their families just how much they loved each other.

As they parted lips, the post-wedding photographs were taken. After, Applejack then hoisted Twilight onto her back and easily carried her out of the chapel to near-deafening cheers, setting her down outside. As Twilight turned around and threw the bouquet behind her to all the unwed mares, it was unintentionally caught by Derpy Hooves of all ponies, with her generally-offset eyes going straight at the implications. Twilight simply giggled as she looked to the young mail-mare and gave her a wink, knowing Derpy had always had a sweet spot for Time Turner and indeed had been dating him for many months. Perhaps this was a sign.

The couple then went into their 'Just Married' carriage, seen off with the throwing of rice, and joined with cheers. Everypony then followed the carriage to the reception hall a short trot away, eager to get on with the celebration and reception.

The reception's decor was almost more grand than the wedding chapel had been, the tables covered in all of the most rich and expensive foods, crafted by only the most well-known chefs from all of Equestria and placed on only the finest Japonies porcelain – and, at the insistence of Applejack, a table was also covered in all sorts of home-style viddles from the recipes of the Apple clan. As the two newly-betrothed arrived by carriage, Applejack and Twilight were welcomed off by an entourage of their friends, family, and other ponies cheering and excited, congratulating them.

After the initial chaos of congratulations and even more pictures, the two proceeded to the cake-cutting area, the huge cake looking large enough to feed all of Equestria and then some – and indeed it may need to, with as many guests as there were. As they cut the cake and went to feed each other a piece as per standard, Twilight too late saw the mischevious grin on her mate's face and felt the smush of cake and frosting on her muzzle, followed by Applejack laughing.

After Twilight got some righteous revenge by returning the favor and with a larger piece, they laughed together as they cleaned each other up, using napkins instead of the tongues they so desired to use instead. Afterward, the sliced cake was distributed to all the guests, as was authentic Prench champaign. No expenses were spared, and that went for the food and drinks as well.

Big Mac took the stage alongside his sister and her bride, despite generally being soft-spoken and in the background. With his glass held in his hoof he turned to his sister and Twilight, raising the glass to them and smiling. "To mah sister an' Twilight. May ya always be happy t'gether. Congratulations!" he said, getting a hoof-stomping applause and both the toasted grinning from ear-to-ear. After a few more toasts in their honor and the cake and drink were finished, everypony was allowed to go back to feasting, with Twilight and Applejack filling their plates full and indulging – with Twilight especially liking to dip carrots in chocolate sauce...and bell peppers and radishes too.

After the feast was finished, the after-party started, with a certain white DJ with an electric-blue mane manning the turntables and others hosting the games and other events. Her group of friends was as always with Twilight and Applejack as they all ate together, but also with their own stallions whom they'd dedicated themselves to years prior; Rainbow Dash with Soarin, Fluttershy with Lightning Bolt, Pinkie with Boker Horizon, Rarity with Orange Sky, and of course Cadence with Shining Armor.

"Well L.S.B.F.F, looks like you finally did it huh? You finally got married!" Shining said, getting happy smiles from both. "Well, hope you're ready for the honeymoon...Cadence wouldn't let me out of her bedchamber for hours! I thought I was gonna die, but what a way to go!"

Cadence quickly clunked a hoof on Shining's head, earning a stifled chuckle from him as he rubbed the struck spot, seeing the blush burning on her face. "I was in a magically-concealed heat when we got married..." she mumbled in explanation, getting an understanding nod from all the mares at the table, Applejack looking especially flustered, "...but your brother's right; be sure to drink plenty of water before and during..." she finished, giving the two a sly wink.

"Yeah, but you gotta remember that marriage isn't all about just hot, sweaty sex, even though that's one of the best parts...it's about you and your partner being together forever, and overcoming everything together. Whether it be choosing how many foals you want, or the curtains for the front window, or even your jobs or anything else, remember: you choose it together from now on." Twilight looked up, surprised to see that it was Rainbow of all ponies who had dispensed that nugget of wisdom, seeing Rainbow and Soarin' exchanging a small kiss as they'd met each other's eyes, Twilight noting that Rainbow's distinct baby bump had grown since they'd last seen each other.

"It's about being there for each other when you're happy or sad; to be with your soulmate no matter if you're really happy with each other, or if you could nearly tear each other apart in anger..." Fluttershy said, getting a nuzzle from Lightning Bolt. Fluttershy's stallion gently rubbed her own foal-swollen midsection, getting a soft smile from her. "...just remember it'll all be OK in the end as long as you both truly do love each other, and try to work it out."

"Oh and darling, let me tell you, you WILL get into fights. I mean goodness, Orange Sky and myself once had the longest fight over whether our chosen carpets were royal blue or cobalt blue. It ended up in some of the best make-up sex we'd ever had upon said carpet, but that's beside the point: be ready to have at least some conflict. Everypony is different, and will want different things sometimes. It's only natural."

"It was cobalt...I asked the maker of the carpet himself and he told me." Orange Sky said, getting a glare from Rarity.

"...and I said it was ROYAL BLUE! As a twenty-year seamstress, I should know my shades!" Rarity exclaimed, before looking around the table and looking sheepish at her outburst, before glaring at Orange again. "Sometimes I think you only keep bringing this up so you can bend me over later to 'make up' and try to give me that foal you so want me to have..."

Orange only grinned.

"YEAH, SOMETIMES BEING TOGETHER WILL BE SUPER-DUPER GREAT, but then sometimes it'll be like a Pegasus rain-cloud came over and rained all over those decorations you spent a super long time setting up...All you gotta do is remember that the good times will outweigh the bad..." Pinkie said, somehow appearing right between Twilight and Applejack.

"...and that your partner will love you no matter what. After all, you married them for a reason: because you love them with all your heart, and want to be with them forever. ''Til death do us part' isn't a little commitment after all." Cadence said, before looking at the two.

"What we're all trying to say is being married won't be easy, but it'll be so worth it when you see your most loved pony in the whole world at the start or end of the day, and tell them how your day went or what you dreamed about; to have them listen to you and understand you like nopony else can. It's the best feeling in the world." Shining Armor finished, getting a peck on the cheek from Cadence. "Plus, like Rainbow said earlier, the sex is awesome!

Shining once more felt a hoof land roughly on his head with a thawnk.

After chatting and eating together, the newly-married couple went to the dance floor, with the DJ reluctantly putting on a slower-paced song for them instead of the heavy beats she was dropping before. As Applejack's chest pressed against Twilight, and their hooves started to move as one, their heads wrapped around each other so their chins rested on the other's crest. Slowly, the two shared their first dance together as sworn life-mates, nuzzling into each other as they slowly moved together smoothly. Their dance lessons had apparently paid off.

They slowly ground together as the calm rhythm played, relaxing for the first time in a week as nothing else was expected for their overly-complex wedding, a huge burden off of their minds. For now, they just held each other close, feeling their mate's chests rise with their own and each other's breaths, feeling as connected to each other as two ponies possibly could; feeling like they were one body, moving together.

"Yer is th' best thang that's ever happened to me..." Applejack said as they moved rhythmically to the slow tempo, her voice choking up, trying to keep her movements steady as she also tried to keep her happy tears in.

"You are to me too Applejack. I couldn't ask for somepony better to spend the rest of my life with than you..." Twilight responded, with the two stopping their motions as the music ended, sharing a short kiss before Night Light came along to receive Twilight from Applejack for his dance with the bride.

Author's Note

Well, this is the most massive undertaking I've ever taken on a wedding scene. Hope this is sufficient as the 'as long as possible' wedding chapter that you wanted it to be Corey!

As a side note, all of the chosen pairings for the other Mane 6 were chosen by the commissioner, not of my own choosing.

Of Apple Fields to Be Sowed

After partying for a long while, with many toasts being held in their honor and many more words of wisdom shared, Twilight and Applejack finally departed from the reception party to the cheers of their wedding guests, with her married friends looking on as she went into the carriage and it was led away.

"You know they're totally gonna bone each other tonight, right?" Rainbow asked as they watched the carriage head to the train station, getting a chuckle from all of the others.

"Of course," Cadence said mischievously, "that's what the honeymoon is for, after all."

"Ugh, thank Celestia that's over..." Applejack said, tossing off her fancy gown as though it were muddy clothing, strewing it across the bedroom of their hotel in Los Pegasus, their trip pre-paid by Twilight's parents. They were glad here was chosen for their honeymoon, with it a place to have fun and unwind; just what the two needed after the week of pure stress before their wedding. "Ah still can't believe we had t' go through all'a that jus' t' get married. Ah mean, fer Pete's sake, we coulda jus' gone to and gotten hitched at some li'l place instead'a that big ol' gaudy thang..." Applejack said, going and laying on the bed with a pleased grunt.

Twilight giggled. "Well, we did what we had to do, and the result was the same either way. We're married now Applejack! We're forever one, and nopony can ever change that." Twilight said, having taken her own dress off and neatly hanging it in the closet, alongside grabbing Applejack's off of the floor and doing the same. As she sighed happily at that thought, of forever being Applejack's, and Applejack being hers, she lay down beside her mate, meeting her lips with Applejack's in an intimate kiss.

Applejack didn't put up any resistance whatsoever to Twilight's advances, only giving a quiet, pleased moan as Twilight's tongue slipped past her relaxed jaw, quickly meeting with her own. What followed was a brief tango of tongues, fighting not against each other but instead working to bring its partner-in-dance as much pleasure as possible. It only heated up more as Twilight rolled over on top of Applejack, feeling her wife go slack underneath her, letting her take over as her tongue softly pinned Applejack's to the bottom of her mouth, though they both won in this 'tussle'.

After a while Twilight pulled out of her mouth with a smack of their lips, both still staring into each others' eyes; amethyst gazing into emerald once more. "Twi, can y'take the spell off now? Ahm way more th'n ready." Applejack said, her voice more than lustful, "Ah need ya so bad...Ah've needed ya since it first started."

Twilight lit her horn, and a moment later Applejack moaned as the unpleasant, heated feeling in her belly lit like a pyre from ashes, her urges swelling from passive want to desperate need. "Ah hay, maybe Ah shoulda had ya leave that spell on fer a little longer. Ah almost forgot how horrible bein' in a long denied heat is..." Applejack moaned, her hoof immediately trailing down her belly as she started to rub her swelling, moistening slit on reflex, giving a quiet whimper at the, if only fleeting, pleasure the contact caused.

"Listen Applejack, I didn't want to use the spell on you any more than you wanted me to, but it had to be done if you wanted to keep loyal to your promise to yourself and your...your parents. I know you didn't plan on going into heat a couple of days early, let alone at the last days of our wedding preparation, but I couldn't take the promise of you conciving your foal after marriage away from you." Twilight said, gently nudging Applejack's rubbing hoof aside with her own and taking it over, earning a louder moan from Applejack as her slit winked, her hips humping up into the hoof of her lover.

"Yeah, Ah-mmmmm-know it was needed but...Ah-aaaaah wish ya coulda grown yerself a cock and rutted me right then when I first went int' mah heat, right in the middle of that whole big group'a ponies..." Applejack said, remembering they'd been in the middle of a planning meeting with Celestia and a few planners when Applejack had asked Twilight out to the hallway, with the scent of a heated mare more than obvious by the time they'd entered the hall, calling for desperate emergency measures.

Twilight had planned to use the heat-quelling spell as a temporary 'band-aid' to fix her heat during the meeting, but Applejack and she had been so busy that the spell had to remain on constantly, her having to endure the mental torture of not being able to but sate herself with her hooves for two days due to both being constantly busy, or being exhausted.

Applejack was ready to be rutted like a mare in her first heat, and Twilight was only too willing to do so.

"Applejack, you know that wouldn't have ended well. Not only would you have gotten pregnant before we were married, but you would have embarrassed yourself in front of the Princesses!"

Applejack only huffed. "Ah don't care! Ah know th' princesses go into heat still, even at their age, so Ah know they know what a bad heat's like." She paused to give an extended moan as Twilight started to rub her winking clit with a hoof, her whole crotch now saturated with her fluids, even going so far as to give little gushes of it out of her and onto the bed and her tail, also well coating her lover's hoof in her honey.

"Wow, you must have it bad if you're even squirting..." Twilight observed, keeping the rubs firm and going deeper, parting her mare's lips with her hoof as it tried to suck it inside.

"NNNNG-of course Ah have it bad sweets. Y'ever not been able t' rub yerself much in yer heat fer near three days while yer mind's tellin' ya t' grind yerself against anything that looks even kinda hard?" Applejack asked, her tone a mix between frustrated and pleasured. "Twi, yer hoof ain't enough this time. Ah...Ah need yer tongue or yer cock, Ah don't care which!" Applejack virtually begged, giving another squirt as she waited for Twilight to sate her.

Twilight nodded and quickly positioned themselves in the '69' position on their sides, aligning their crotches to each other as Twilight immediately dug in, pressing her muzzle tightly into Applejack's winking slit.

Applejack let out a carnal growl of pleasure as she felt Twilight going down on her like she had to Twi during her own heat last month, making Applejack's mind blank as she started rubbing her clit with her magic alongside making her tongue plunge as deeply as possible, AJ's fluids spraying on her lover's face and coating it with her lust.

Applejack did her best to lick Twilight's slit back, but each time she tried another intense pang of pleasure rolled through her as Twilight rubbed her clit with each rapid wink, making Applejack jerk in pleasure at that powerful stimulation.

It was after only a minute of the intense, unrelenting licking and rubbing that Applejack tensed up and cried out as she was overtaken by a very intense orgasm, her fluids gushing out of her and onto the bed, leaving her moaning like she'd stubbed a knee. Twilight knew very well that pain wasn't the reason that Applejack was moaning however, feeling her winking constantly and shuddering as she clearly came hard, her powerful inner muscles sucking on her muzzle as though to draw it inside, gushing her orgasmic fluids out all the while.

Nearly a minute of constant pleasure that turned out to be two orgasms head-to-head, with Twilight not having relented much even as she felt Applejack in her throes of release, Applejack finally relaxed a bit as her body flushed with the warm satisfaction of orgasm. Her desperate need quelled for a moment, letting Applejack feel the first semblance of relief that she'd felt in the past two days – but still she felt that passive need for more even as she recovered from two intense orgasms in a chain. The need for her mate's seed.

"Wow Sugar, yer tongue's just as good as I remembered..." Applejack said in a dazed tone, softly panting as she recovered from her minute on cloud nine. Knowing that Twilight was almost as worked up as she was now, watching Twi's marehood winking slowly at her, calling to her to continue her earlier attention to it, Applejack continued to lick deeply but slowly, being treated to very pleased moans from her lover.

AJ knew that she needed Twilight more, needing her to rut her senseless and cure her heat the old fashioned way, but she also knew how unfair it was to be left wanting. She'd been left needing Twilight's intimate touch for over three days after all, and knew Twi had been lacking hers too.

Applejack continued to make out with her wife's lower lips, feeling them occasionally squeeze on her tongue, that paired with her winking and pleasured moans telling Applejack she was right on track.

After a while of gentle licks, Applejack curved her tongue upward, finding that small, spongy patch of flesh inside of Twilight, then felt her tense up and moan even louder, feeling a flurry of winks kissing her nose as Applejack licked her G-spot, the farm-pony's hoof softly rubbing her wife's cutie mark.

As she felt the squeezes grow more rapid and felt Twilight tensing up some time later, hearing her moans and gasps rising a pitch as Applejack continued to rub that most sensitive spot, she heard as her mate cried out and grabbed around her head with her back legs, keeping her buried deep into her orgasming slit. Her hips rocked against her for a good while, Twilight riding out a rather nice orgasm as her fluids oozed out around Applejack's muzzle and onto the bed.

Twilight slowly relaxed, letting out a very satisfied coo as Applejack gently pulled out of her and instead gave her stifle a kiss. As Twilight rested in her afterglow, Applejack's breeding urges kicked in again as she nuzzled her muzzle into Twilight's own, earning a soft lick on the nose from her and making AJ shudder.

"Well, we both know that oral will only be a temporary relief for your heat, as will hooves." Twilight explained, her eyes lidding at the implications, feeling Applejack wink against her once-more-rubbing hoof in anticipation.

"Yer right. If y' don't mind, could we move right along t' you ruttin' mah brains out? It'd be much appreciated..." Applejack said as she felt the burning in her belly resume even after her double orgasm, knowing only a stallion's seed would satisfy it fully and permanently. "Ahm ready t' have yer foal now Twilight, mah wife. Mah love."

Twilight soon stood and her horn lit, feeling the familiar stretching in her lower belly as well as the familiar masculine guest taking residence in her mind soon after. While Applejack moved from underneath her and lay on the side of the bed with her croup on the edge, leaving herself prone on her back, Twilight felt as she grew the penis and balls that would indeed give Applejack her foal, shuddering as her new instincts picked up on the fertile scent of her mare and making the length start to snake out before it'd even been fully formed.

Keeping her concentration on the spell despite the growing cloud of lust in her mind, Twilight kissed her mare as she stood then again laid over her, pinning her down softly into the mattress as the spell finished and left her endowed with a stallionhood once more. She felt it grinding against Applejack's lower belly as she softly thrust her hips on reflex to Applejack's pheromones flowing through her now, calling her to breed her fertile mare; to fill her with her seed so she could later watch her belly later swell with a foal. Her foal.

"C'mon Twi breed me! Knock me up with yer foal! Ah've wanted t' feel yer baby-makin' cum in me ever since we first did this durin' mah heat an' every time ya rutted me with the 'safe' spell...but Ah just...Ah couldn't let mahself get pregnant 'til we were married... but now we are. Yer mine forever, an' Ahm yers." Applejack proudly stated, "Mah love, Ah want you to rut me til ya can't cum no more..." Applejack then felt as Twilight's member very quickly hardened and pressed into her lower belly and teats as she lay atop her, feeling her hips grinding it against her and letting the heated mare feel every of its eight inches throbbing between the two; feeling the pre-cum it was producing en masse matting their fur.

"Ah want all'a yer hot foal-batter in mah oven an' makin' a bun..."

Twilight snickered and then responded to her mare's desire, as well as her own, by sliding her hips back and pressing her flare against her very wanting mare's marehood, feeling it winking against her and giving her swollen head kisses in the only way it could. Without any further teasing, Twilight slid fully into her mare, feeling all at once embraced by her warm insides as she'd easily hilted within seconds; feeling Applejack's slightly-dilated cervix kissing her glans now, her whole well-lubed passage welcoming her in and milking her for her sperm already, her lips and clit winking against her pelvis.

In response to the stimulation, Twilight quickly pulled out and plunged back in again, getting a very deep moan from Applejack. Twilight herself gave a hearty breeding whinny as she claimed this fertile mare as her own; hers to plant her seed in and make grow ripe with foal. "'At's right Twi, Ahm all yours." Applejack encouraged, her whole body tingling with the pleasure of being bred in heat, with the promise of getting a foal this time making it feel just that much better; "J-Jus' don't...stop...humpin, an' don't you dare pull out at th' end..."

Twilight was only too eager to fulfill her mare's demand, her hips rocking on their instinctive path, their chests grinding together as Twilight continued to thrust. It wasn't long until Applejack wrapped her forelegs around Twilight's crest and pulled her tightly to her muzzle, meeting her lips in a kiss as her tongue snaked inside. Twilight gave no resistance as she kept rutting her wife, her hips working on instinct as she bred, her whole body overwhelmed with pleasure – and even more so when Applejack's tongue dueled with her own, sending another snake of pleasure to join the constant stream burning through her being.

"Y-yeah Twi, j-jus' like that. H-harder!" Applejack encouraged, and the increased pats of their soaked crotches meeting together, the slap of Twilight's balls meeting her flank, was her reward. Twilight could feel Applejack's passage rippling over her on uncontrollable reflex to the stallionhood deep within her, encouraging her stallion to cum inside her, both of their mind awash with the sensations.

For what seemed an eternity Twilight kept rutting at a rapid pace, before suddenly hearing Applejack give a whimper. "Twi Ah-Ahhhhh~!" Applejack squealed, with Twi then feeling her insides clamping down on her cock and keeping it tight inside of her as she came again. Twilight was forced to stop dead inside of her as she tightly kneaded her length, her body trying desperately to bring her stallion to climax with her, then draw his seed deep within her. She held her own orgasm off though, even as she felt herself starting to flare in reaction to being gripped so tightly and milked, wanting to make this honeymoon one they'd always remember.

As soon as Applejack loosened up enough for her to move again, Twilight kept her hips rolling smoothly, earning another pleased moan and deep kiss from her mare. The extra-thick, extra-slippery wetness that Applejack's release had left only made her deep thrusts that much deeper and more fluid, letting Twilight sink balls-deep with each and making Applejack feel her against her deepest barrier with each hilting, making her lust-addled mind realize that her request for Twilight to cum directly into her womb wasn't as farfetched as she'd thought.

"Mmmm Twi, yer doin' perfect...it feels s-so good..." Applejack cooed out, feeling herself tensing up again, also feeling Twilight growing larger in her, knowing it wouldn't be too long before Twilight also reached her own limit if she was starting to flare. As she thought more about that sensation deep within her, of her passage being spread wide to keep all of Twilight's cum deep inside of her – its sole purpose to make a seal against her cervix, to make sure all of her wife's lovely sperm went into her womb and got her pregnant, knowing nothing would be done to prevent that this time – Applejack felt her third climax closing in.

"A-Applejack, I d-don't t-think I can l-last...I'm gonna...s-soon..." Twilight stumbled out, her body starting to tense as she felt Applejack growing tighter with each thrust, knowing by the almost-unbearable tightness in her pelvis that she was on the brink.

Applejack felt as Twilight flared fully and her thrusts grew rapid and non-rhythmic, her flare spreading her inmost passage taut and her length pulsing heavily, knowing she was on the edge. "Do it! I love ya Twi...make me a mama!" Applejack passionately whispered, and with that Twilight slammed home and whinnied.

Knowing this was what they both wanted, Twilight came while hilted inside of her love, instantly being overwhelmed by a huge wave of pleasure that made her whinny out loud, biting Applejack's neck softly and seeking a crest to hold that simply wasn't there. It was wonderful and horrible at the same time as orgasm always was for her; she felt completely out of control of herself as her hips sharply hilted her inside of Applejack, then felt as her hips jerked out and back in again, each one proceeded by a huge gush of thick, very virile cum from her, her large flare giving the foal-batter nowhere to go but up and into Applejack's oven.

As Applejack felt that very specific pulsing and the hot, thick, wet feeling splashing deep inside of her – and thought of the implications it brought with it, knowing this was real, virile seed instead of the sterile semen she and Twilight had used before – she cried out and wrapped all four hooves around Twilight, holding the mare she so loved tightly to her at that penultimate moment, pressing her lips tightly to her life-mate's as they came together and undoubtedly conceived their child. Her pleasure washed over her in a tsunami, anything close to a sentient thought flushed out by pure primal satisfaction.

For so long they came together, Applejack feeling as that warmth pulsing and spreading deep into her belly overwhelmed the previous heat, dousing her estrus and making her whole body cry in joy at that sensation; her breeding instincts overjoyed at the sensation of a foal being pumped into her. Twilight only gave a couple of last weak humps before remaining hilted again.

After what felt like forever but couldn't have been more than a minute, with Applejack feeling completely, contentedly filled up and her body utterly satisfied, Twilight finally stopped pulsing within her. She remained deep within Applejack on instinct, her flare pressed against her deepest wall and plugging it to keep her seed within her, so her little swimmers could reach their only goal of her egg.

After she'd given her last, Twilight collapsed onto her love, pressing her into the mattress and giving her the feeling of slight submission that Applejack believed every mare should have after being bred. "Well, that was certainly the hardest I've ever cum..." Applejack said, even still feeling twinges and aftershocks of her orgasm rolling through her, even sometimes leading to full-on contractions on Twilight's still-buried dick, earning a moan from her and a pulse from her stallionhood.

"I...I ejaculated my semen directly into your uterus during your estrus." Twilight said, feeling a certain pride at such a fact, "If that doesn't give you our foal, I don't know what will." Twilight then gazed into her wife's eyes, seeing them smouldering with her love for her, knowing her own eyes burned with the same passion as well. She loved Applejack with all of her heart, and knew she did the same; so much so that she was willing to bear their child. "I love you so much..."

"Ah love y'too Twilight Sparkle." Applejack said, before meeting Twilight's lips in a much softer kiss this time, their lips softly smacking as they kissed lovingly, with Twilight still buried to Applejack's core. "Ah get to have a foal." Applejack said proudly, a hoof reaching down to rub the side of her lower belly, "Ah get t' have our kin. Ah've always wanted t' carry a foal of mah very own, and thanks t' you, Ah can do jus' that."

Twilight smiled as the undoubted aftermath of their breeding once more came to her mind. She and Applejack were going to have a foal. A lovely, beautiful foal that was a little part of both of them. "I know carrying a foal and having a family is just as important to an Apple as farming, and I'm just glad you chose me to give you it. Hay, I can see why those two mares wanted to have a foal together so badly that they invented a whole new type of magic for it." Twilight nearly whispered, nuzzling into Applejack's mane, "If it felt anywhere near as lovely and satisfying for them to know they were having a foal together with the mare they love as it does for me, I'd move the planet just to make it happen."

After that they simply snuggled for a while, being as close to one pony as possible, kissing or nipping affectionately while they rested, admiring each other's presence. After a while, Applejack felt that faint burning of her heat returning, knowing it'd likely keep coming back for a while until the sperm 'took' and she was fertilized. Twilight was still rock-hard from the constant, gentle kneadings Applejack's vaginal muscles kept up on reflex, urging the stallion inside of her to go another round. "Hey Twi, y'think we can go again? Ahm more'n ready..."

Twilight only grinned. "Wanna do it pony-style this time?"

"Ya bet yer flank Ah do..."

The night was still young, and Applejack was still very much in heat; something Twilight resolved to quell...again and again...

...and that, fillies and colts, is how foals are made.

Of What Love Bestows Part 1

It was a few days after their honeymoon and Twilight had just returned from the bathroom once more, her stomach once more emptied of its contents, her throat stinging from the stomach acid and undigested breakfast that had been violently expelled. Applejack had once more heard everything, and this time she'd had enough. She'd been dealing with this on and off for the past month, and finally enough was enough.

"Twi, we're goin' to the doctor." Applejack said flatly, her expression hard and unyielding.

"Applejack, it's just a little—"

"NO! No more'a that flu nonsense. Flu don't cause major heartburn dern near e'ry morning, or pukin' every few wit' NO other symptoms of a flu. This ain't a flu, now, yer goin' to the doctor with me, even if Ah gotta drag you there by your tail, y'hear?"

Twilight sighed, then nodded. "Alright if you're that determined, just let me get ready..." she said, gathering her saddlebags.

Less than an hour later, Applejack and Twilight sat in an examination room of Ponyville General Hospital. As the doctor did Twilight's vitals, he asked Applejack to leave the room for patient confidentiality. "It's alright Doc, I'm comfortable with sharing anything concerning my health with Applejack, my wife." Twilight said, with the doctor simply smiling and nodding.

"So, what seems to be the problem, Your Highness?" Doctor Stable asked, looking over her chart. "Let's see...morning sickness, increased appetite, steady weight gain. Ah yes, I have a strong idea just what's causing this, but first let's get the full physical you requested done"

Twilight had originally wanted to just apologize for wasting the doctor's time on a simple malady and leave, but him stating he knew the cause changed that. Plus Applejack insisted. "Doctor, ya perform any tests ya deem appropriate for th' symptoms. Price is no object fer Twi's health." she said, nudging at her Bit pouch.

Stable simply nodded passively when the money was mentioned, with it never being his focus, then got to work. He performed a simple physical, collected a few vials of blood, and a cup of urine from Twilight before then going off to the lab and leaving the two alone in the examination room.

Within five minutes, Stable returned, wearing a very bright smile. "So, what is it doc? Is Twilight alright?" Applejack asked, a hint of worry in her voice despite the practitioner's cheery disposition.

"Well as I suspected, she's a perfectly healthy young mare in prime condition in every category according to the physical I performed." Doc started, his smile widening a bit. "Also, according to the symptoms reported by you, I took the liberty of performing a standard pregnancy test as well, and it came back positive. Congratulations Mrs. Twilight, you're two months pregnant." Stable said, showing her the positive pregnancy test results and also giving a big, genuine smile; he always loved delivering this kind of news.

Both Twilight and Applejack were dumbfounded; how hadn't they seen it, with that conclusion glaring them in the face. "O-Oh." Twilight stammered out, getting off of the examination table, "So...it was just a...baby causing the symptoms...?" she asked, though she subconsciously had known it all along.

Doc nodded. "Since you aren't too surprised, I suspect you may have known?" he asked, receiving a nod. "Well, since you didn't know for sure you were pregnant until now, I should probably first ask you if you'd like to keep it." the doctor asked, swiftly receiving rapid nods from Twilight and Applejack both, finding it odd that Applejack was also nodding. "Right, great to know. Now the reason for the severe morning sickness, in addition to the natural hormonal changes involved with pregnancy, is likely because you probably haven't adapted your diet to properly reflect that you're carrying now, which may have been aggravating your stomach more." Twilight nodded, remembering she indeed ate a lot of things that probably weren't the best for an upset stomach. "Alright than, I'm going to write you a prescription for prenatal vitamins to keep you and the foal healthy, another for pregnancy-safe anti-nausea medicine to help with the morning sickness, and also give you a pamphlet for a proper diet for a pregnant mare. Also, stress strongly contributes to pregnancy symptoms, so try to keep calm as much as possible."

"Oh and off the record, since this wasn't a planned studding, I'd like to suggest you inform the likely sire that you are carrying his foal even if it was a one-time fling in your estrus...n-not that I'm saying that it was, but it's not at all uncommon. As a proud father of two, I know I'd be devastated if I found out years later I had a foal and never got to see them growing up. Of course, this is your choice, but give it some thought."

Twilight smiled, looking to Applejack. "I think the sire knows very well I'm carrying their foal," she said, getting a smile and nuzzle from her wife, and once more leaving the doctor confused. "...and they're definitely going to know it growing up."

"Right...well anyways, let me get that prescription filled out and you two can be on your way." Doc said, moving to his prescription pad.

After they left the hospital and headed back to Sweet Apple Acres, with a small white prescription bag held in her magic, Twilight felt Applejack place a hoof on her shoulder, prompting her to stop. As she did, Applejack quickly met her lips to Twilight's, with her reciprocating in kind and pushing back into it. Breaking the kiss moments later both opened their eyes - and saw in their lovers' the same intense joy they felt themselves.

"Ah can't believe yer really pregnant! Ah guess that penis spell really did work after all!" Applejack exclaimed quietly, virtually jumping out of her horseshoes at the prospect of becoming a mother, "Ah love ya so darn much Twi..."

"Yep, it sure did... and I love you too Applejack," Twilight responded, pressing her chest to Applejack's, wrapping a hoof around her in an embrace, "more than anypony in all of Equestria or anywhere else."

"Ah'm so happy yer carryin' our foal, Twi."

"Me too Applejack," Twilight responded, nuzzling into her mate's neck, "...and I'm sure our friends and family will be too!"

~ ~ ~

A month later, two after their honeymoon, Applejack started developing symptoms just as Twilight had; powerful, though more occasional, morning heartburn and sickness, steady weight gain, strange cravings, and an odd moving sensation in her lower belly – all of which told her exactly what was going on, given Twilight's experiences.

"Twi, Ah may be preggers. We need t' go to the hospital to find out. Let's go." Applejack stated flatly one morning after a rather unpleasant instance of vomiting, getting a nod from Twilight. They'd both been expecting this after all, having intentionally had sex in Applejack's heat up until it had ended for just this reason; to have a foal.

After meeting Doctor Stable again, the pregnancy tests were performed, with the two then awaiting the results. "Well, congratulations again you two!" Doc said as he walked into the room with the test results, "Applejack, the test came back positive! You're indeed with foal." Twilight and Applejack were once more overjoyed at the news, happy that they were having two foals now, already making plans for them both.

"Well, looks like 'at penis spell REALLY worked, huh? Got us both preggers!" Applejack exclaimed once it was just them again, walking back to Sweet Apple Acres after filling the same prescription Twilight had gotten. Twilight only chuckled and nuzzled her mate, mirthful at them being able to share their pregnancies together at the same time, and being able to tell all of their friends and family they were both having a foal instead of only Twilight!

~ ~ ~

"Doctor Stable, I need you to confirm this." the radiologist said at Twilight's three-month foal-viewing, positioning the ultrasound paddle over a certain spot on Twilight's lower belly, with Applejack at her bedside and all four looking at the screen displaying the inside of Twilight's womb. Inside were two smallish shapes that resembled ponies, both of their heads having a small nub that would eventually develop into a unicorn's horn.

"Yep, that's officially confirmed. Princess Twilight, you're carrying what appear to be two unicorn twins. Congratulations!" the doctor said in an excited tone. "Both appear to be healthy and are correct for the average growth of unicorn fetuses at this stage."

The two parents merely beamed in their excitement.

"WAIT, TWINS?!" both asked at the same time, getting nods from the doctor as they were shown, their two foals' outlines pointed out on the screen.

"Wow...twins." Twilight said, feeling excitement and nervousness – something their friend Pinkie Pie had called being 'nervous-cited' – welling in her at the prospect of raising her two foals, then another from Applejack's pregnancy. Twilight then giggled, getting a silly idea. "Wouldn't it be something if you had twins too?" she asked, getting a reciprocating chuckle from Applejack.

"Well rare as twins are in ponies, 'at ain't too likely..." Applejack said, giving a chuff, "Ah'd say we're blessed 'nuff with you havin' a pair."

~ ~ ~

It was two months later as Twilight and Applejack looked at the ultrasound screen within the hospital radiology department, but this time it was for Applejack to have her three-month foal viewing. Once more the doctor was called over to look at the screen, and once more all were surprised as two forms were pointed out on the slightly-fuzzy screen, with Dr. Stable once more confirming twins; Applejack was carrying two earth-ponies, given a lack of the starting of wings or horns that were always visible by this stage of development.

"Oh hay, y' gotta be kiddin' me." Applejack said looking to Twilight, in awe as her prediction from weeks ago had come true.

"Well, I can safely say that this is the first time I've seen a mare couple carrying twins at the same time, and not only that but twins of their own races. You two are truly blessed. Congratulations again." the doctor said, only receiving huge smiles from the couple, who then swiftly gave each other a hug and nuzzle, barely restraining themselves from kissing in front of the staff. After all, there was plenty of time for that, and more, at home for the celebration.

"Oh holy hay..." Applejack said, looking at the start of their second pair of foals on the screen, "Two sets'a twins...Ah can't hardly believe it..."

Twilight was equally awestruck, knowing how astronomically low the odds were that both would be pregnant with twins at the same time, and with both being of their own race. "I can't either...but I'm happy nonetheless. We're gonna have four foals Applejack...four!"

Applejack only smiled, kissing her wife on the cheek and wrapping a hoof around her neck, squeezing her into a hug and wetting her neck with her happy tears. "Ah know Twi...Ahm more'n happy...Ah'm..." she said, only to be unable to find a word describing her elation; "Ahm...real happy too."

As they left the hospital that day and arrived home, hearing the cheers of their friends and families over them both having twins, they spent a good few hours snuggling and spending time together, rubbing each others' bellies – Applejack's just showing and Twilight's significantly bulging already at six months along – and discussing what their future may hold with two sets of twins. Occasionally they'd kiss softly, showing each other just how much they loved their lifelong mate, and how much they appreciated each other carrying their foals.

Sorry this was so staccato and rushed-seeming, but I needed to squeeze a lot of content into few words.

Of What Love Bestows Part 2

The next five months went by quickly and without any real incident, Twilight's belly swiftly growing and ending up making her look like she had a giant beach ball inside of her, much larger than an average mare's given she was carrying twins. Nothing major happened in that time, with the two mares happily living together and simply living their lives, loving to watch the gradual expansion of their mate's belly and loving even more the times they could go and view their growing quartet of foals at the hospital.

Applejack had taken leave of her duties on the farm, and neither had received any notifications from the Cutie Map nor had to attend to any monster attacks, Twilight simply doing the 'desk-job' portion of being a princess; it was as though the entire universe was accommodating their pregnancy with a year of peace.

~ ~ ~

Just after the eleven-month mark of her third term, Twilight's water broke and she went into labor one day during lunch, being rushed to the hospital with Applejack always by her side through it all. As they prepared Twilight for the birthing process Applejack looked back at her own very swollen belly, also quite large given it was twins, knowing full well it would be her turn to deliver her own foals in a couple of months.

The first birth went smoothly, Twilight pushing when told as the doctor helped ease their foal out of its mother, Twilight squeezing Applejack's hoof in a vise-grip with each contraction. Overall, it was quite the experience for both mares, Applejack getting a taste of what she'd be going through in two months as she watched her mate give birth. Fortunately for her, Twilight had a painkilling spell cast on her, making it so all she had to feel was the intense pressure of the contractions passing their foal into the world; much more pleasant than the alternative.

As they heard the muffled cry from beneath them and looked down, Twilight slumping to the bed as she rested, they saw their first-born. "Congratulations Princess, it's a unicorn filly! We're going to clean her right up, do the post-birth tests, then give her right to you. We won't even leave the room." The wet-nurse promised, then proceeded to do just that, all in sight of the two mothers. Meanwhile, Twilight felt another wave of contractions start as her second foal shifted lower in her pelvis, her body preparing for its delivery. "Doctor, the second is crowning!"

It was another hour of Applejack's hoof being crushed before Twilight and Applejack heard another muffled cry coming from beneath them. "It's another unicorn filly! Congratulations, you have two beautiful little girls!" The doctor announced, earning a smile from Applejack and an excited, tired pant from Twilight.

"Good job Twi, I'm so proud of you! You're a mama now...I'm a mama now!" Applejack softly exclaimed, giving Twilight a kiss on the cheek as she rested, the nurse taking their second foal for its own tests, the first coming back as perfectly healthy.

After the whole birthing process was completed and mother and foals were found to be healthy, Twilight was brought one of her daughters, while Applejack held the other.

"Welcome to the world, my little girls." Twilight whispered, tears streaming down her cheeks as she looked down at her daughter, Applejack's eyes also welling up as she held her twin.

The first-born had a pure white coat, just like her grandmother Twilight Velvet and uncle Shining Armor, with Applejack's blonde mane and tail, it being highlighted with burnt-orange, rose, and fuchsia streaks. Her eyes were the emerald green of Applejack as well, and she was indeed a unicorn.

The second foal had a heliotrope-purple-pink coat like Twilight's, her mane and tail an azure blue tone similar to her grandfather Night Light and uncle Shining Armor's. Her eyes were are a golden yellow much like her cousin Apple Bloom's, and she was also a unicorn.

"So, what are we going to name these two precious little foals?" Nurse Redheart asked, holding a clipboard and pen in her hoof, "...and also, we need to know the foals' sire for the records, if you know it. Sorry, regulations."

"Well, we'd like to name the white-coated filly Dawn Glimmer, and the purple one Magic Spark." Twilight responded, getting a confirming nod from Applejack. "Also, the sire's name is Applejack Apple. My wife."

The nurse blinked. "I'm sorry..." she said, looking to Applejack, "...you mean THIS Applejack? This MARE Applejack?" Twilight nodded, her expression serious and somewhat annoyed. "Oh...kay. I'll just go ahead and write that down Princess. I'm sure it'll make more sense to a unicorn how a mare can make a foal with another mare...never been one to question unicorn or alicorn magic." Redheart mumbled out, herself an earth pony; writing down Applejack was sire to the new-born princesses.

As Redheart then left the mares and their foals to bond, Applejack brought Twilight into a hug. "Twi', thank ya so much for this..." Applejack said, reaching over and nuzzling against her cheek, planting a small kiss on it.

"Well, to be fair...we both made them. Together." Twilight responded.

Applejack only nodded, more focused now upon the beautiful fruit of their loins.

After they left the hospital when Twilight had rested and recovered enough, they headed back to Sweet Apple Acres, where Twilight was spending more and more time in the past months. Both had set up a nursery there long ago, with enough supplies and two double-sized cribs for the four foals soon to come. As their foals were laid down the first time, Applejack having watched Twilight feeding them, she realized just how heavily pregnant she herself was and how she was due within two months.

"Wow Twi, what it's gonna be like havin' four foals running around here before long?" she asked, simply getting a giggle from her mate.

"I guess we'll just have to wait and find out."

~ ~ ~

One night just over two months after Twilight had blessed them with two healthy foals, and the sleepless nights that brought, the time had come. "Twi, It's time!" Applejack called out urgently just as they were settling down for bed and Twilight was brushing her teeth, feeling another contraction rolling through her belly, making her wince. Twilight quickly awoke Big Mac to watch their foals who were already starting to walk, as most ponies started at two months old, explaining the situation quickly before rushing off to tend to her wife, and help her go to the hospital. Once more they arrived at the hospital in record time, but with Applejack being prepared for that act of nature soon to occur this time.

After a couple of hours of Twilight's hoof getting crushed this time, making her feel sorry for her doing the same thing to Applejack when she'd given birth two months past, the first of their foals passed into the world with a fluid-filled cry, the two mothers hearing the announcement that it was a handsome colt. After cleaning him up and confirming he was a large and healthy boy, they brought him to Applejack, with her body taking a break after passing the first placenta, her second birth seeming to take a while to happen unlike Twilight's immediate second set of contractions. Applejack was only too grateful for the breather after all the pushing she'd just done to get the big earth-pony colt out.

"Boy howdy did you take after your uncle Big Mac! Yer huge" Applejack exclaimed as she saw the size of her foal and felt his mass in her hooves, her and Twilight both looking down upon their third foal. He was a rather large earth-pony colt with a brilliant tangelo-orange coat, his mane and tail mid-violet. His eyes were a lighter green like his uncle Big Mac's, and like Applejack's father's had been.

"So, you liked giving birth so much you brought your wife in for the fun too a couple months later, huh?" Nurse Redheart joked, earning a small chuckle from Twilight and Applejack both. "So more seriously, what would you like to name him, and who is the sire if you know?"

Applejack looked to Twilight, who nodded. "Magic Apple. We'd like to name him Magic A—OH-MI-GOSH-THE-OTHER-ONE'S-COMIN'!" Applejack groaned out, feeling her contractions starting again as the second foal shifted lower in her pelvis.

It was another half-hour before the second twin was birthed, with him being weighed and otherwise checked before coming back with the same clean bill of health as his brother had. This one was also an earth-pony colt, a light azure-blue coat upon his body and his mane and tail an orangeish-blonde. His eyes were indigo, like his mother Twilight's.

After Applejack had sufficiantly recovered from the second birth, the nurse approached again as the mothers held their rather large colts. "They're very handsome, congratulations! Now, what would you like to name your colts, and who may I list as their sire?"

After a confirming nod from Twilight, she continued where she'd left off before her labor had started again; "Well like Ah said before, we'd like t' name the orange'un Magic Apple, then this here one..." she said, nuzzling the blue colt, "... we wanna name Apple Star. Also, th' sire is Princess Twilight Sparkle, mah life-mate." This time the nurse was less surprised at learning that the two mares had concieved together twice now – and quite frankely, for her sanity, didn't want to know how they did it – and instead simply wrote it down, that Princess Twilight was the sire, that fact making the little colts princes. "Alright, and that'll do it. I'll just leave you two to get bonded with your colts now." she said, dismissing herself.

Applejack simply nuzzled her mate as they held their newest additions to the family, knowing that four fouls would be a lot to handle, but also knowing they had all the help they could ever need; her friends, as well as Twilight's parents, volunteering to watch them whenever was needed; plus Spike, Starlight Glimmer, and a nanny appointed by Celestia, would be living in Twilight's castle where the foals would be raised.

"Well, we sure got our hooves full, dont' we Twi?" Applejack asked, looking down to the blue-wrapped bundle in either of their hooves.

"Yep, and I wouldn't have it any other way."

"Yer darn right mah love. Love ya Twi."

"I love you too Applejack."

Apple Star cooed in his sleep.

Of Hearts Laid Bare

Twilight Sparkle looked over the large orchard of apple trees, breathing in the crisp scent of a late-spring morning as she looked over the vibrant greens and reds of the dozens of apple trees of Sweet Apple Acres. Applejack had invited her over to 'talk about something important', and she wasn't entirely sure what it was about. Was this about her comment that she could help on the farm at their last meeting with the others, she wondered; if Applejack finally going to accept her help with something.

Soon after, Twilight saw Applejack in the distance bucking a dead tree, a cascade of dead leaves and branches falling off around it, before with one final powerful buck with both legs, the tree let off a huge crack and fell. Twilight approached the gamboge-orange farm mare and Applejack wiped her sweaty brow with a hoof before finally noticing Twilight, giving her a smile in greeting. "Well howdy there Twi, Ahm mighty glad ya decided to come. Ah hope Ah ain't stoppin' ya from doin' nothin' important by asking ya over. Ah ain't, right?" Applejack asked, letting herself relax a bit as she realized that this was the last tree in the row. That meant she could take a break, and she could think of no better time.

"Uh, no, not at all actually. I was just going to re-re-shelve the books of the Mystical Classics but that can wait, no biggie!" Twilight said, returning her friend's smile. She always liked visiting Applejack, as with all of her other friends, but something about visiting Applejack felt...special. She wasn't sure if it was just the pure hospitality that she always showed everypony who visited, or just that she always gave Twilight the biggest, brightest welcome and smile anypony ever had. Matter of fact, Applejack was indeed the first pony to officially welcome Twilight to Ponyville, and she could never forget that.

Twilight found herself thinking about that fact more and more as they walked to the house, occasionally contributing her own two Bits to the banal talk offered, remembering how Applejack was her first friend in Ponyville; how Applejack had offered her, a complete stranger, her unbridled hospitality, having indeed invited her to have a feast at the Apple Family Reunion, and had expected nothing in return.

"Hey, uh, Twi? Y'alright there? Yer getting a kinda funny smile there." Applejack said, a mix of passive concern and mild amusement suggested in her voice from the silly face Twilight was making. Twilight simply chuckled and gave a nod back, letting her know she was indeed alright before they made their way inside the main farmhouse.

"Twi, can Ah offer ya some iced tea? Maybe a mite t' eat?" Applejack asked in her strong southern drawl as she accompanied her friend inside and seated her in the kitchen nook, with her voice a feature that made her distinctly 'Applejack' for Twilight. Twilight had found she'd always rather liked the farm mare's voice, ever since she was first sent down to Sweet Apple Acres for the Summer Sun Celebration's food preparations and she'd greeted her with the most vigorous hoof-shake she'd ever gotten. It was more of a whole-body shake really...

"Uh, Twi? Ya kinda spaced out there again...Ah asked if Ah can get ya some tea?" Applejack asked again, shaking Twilight out of her thoughts.

"Wha...? Oh! Uh, yeah, sure." Twilight said disjointedly, as though Applejack voice had suddenly manifested out of thin air. "So, what did you ask me over for? Did you need some help with something?" she asked, only to see her friend suddenly tense.

"Ah...uh...Ah need t' go get th' tea started!" Applejack suddenly exclaimed, before quickly trotting over to the stove, tossing some tea-leaves into a kettle of water and setting to boil. Something about her tone of voice was...off to Twilight. Did she seem...nervous? Applejack being nervous over something was always a bad sign.

"Applejack, is something wrong?" Twilight asked concernedly and watched as the other pony tensed again, her ear flicking nervously.

"Ah...n-no Twi, why do y' ask that?" Applejack asked as she looked back to her purple-coated friend, a wide, fake smile plastered across her face as her eyes shifted from side to side.

Twilight's eyes narrowed as she pursed her lips a bit, an expression of suspicion crossing her face. Applejack was acting strange, was nervous...and was that...was she trying to lie? "Applejack, are you sure about that?" Twilight asked, standing and approaching her friend.

"S-Sure Ahm sure...Ahm...j-jus' peachy!" Applejack said, though her body language didn't follow. She was clearly upset about something, and it was Twilight's job as the Princess of Friendship to find out what!

"What's the matter Applejack?" Twilight asked more persuasively, clearly able to tell something was wrong. Applejack never tried to lie unless something was really bothering her, indeed the Element of Honesty for a reason. "Is something on your mind?"

Applejack sighed. "Y-yeah, it's uh...it's somepony. Somepony Ah hold dear." Applejack finally conceded, before biting her lip. Applejack thought.

"Who? Is it somepony I know?" Twilight asked, looking to the gamboge-orange-coated mare before her, into her troubled emerald-green eyes, only to be interrupted by the whistle of the tea kettle right next to them.

Applejack thought. Thankful for the distraction, she virtually lunged for the whistling kettle. "Now why don't we discuss this over some tea?" she asked as she poured the tea into a pitcher, put some ice in it, and put it, two cups, and a sugar bowl on a tray, with Twilight sitting as asked and Applejack slowly pouring each a cup. Very slowly. As though she was stalling.

Once the brew had filled both cups and both sat, Applejack took a sip of her drink before giving a sigh, her eyes closed as she thought about how to go about this. Twilight horn lit as she levitated the cup of her own brew in her raspberry-red magic, taking a sip, grimacing, and adding a sugar cube to it. "Twi, we're friends, right?" Applejack asked, seeing as Twilight sat the cup down and looked to her.

"Of course we're friends Applejack. You're the first Pony in Ponyville I ever met and the first real, true friend I ever made." Twilight said, with a small smile on her face.

"W-Well Twi, Ahm mighty glad t' hear that," Applejack said nervously, her hooves kneading against the table as ponies were wont to do in times of distress. "Hey, uh, Twi? What...what would you say if Ah said Ah think Ah...love somepony?"

Twilight's eyes quickly widened a bit as she heard that subject brought up, with dating somewhat of a poor subject for her, given she'd never really focused much on it as a subject of her interests. She wasn't sure why Applejack would come to her for dating advice, as she never had really been interested in having a coltfriend; her studies, friends, or her princess duties took all of her time up. She didn't know why hadn't she chosen Rarity, or even Pinkie Pie, both of whom had been on at least a few dates in their time.

"Well Applejack, If you'd have told me of the reason of you calling me here, I could have brought some of the books I have on relationships. But generally, stallions—"

"Twi, what if...what if it ain't a stallion Ahm interested in?" Applejack interrupted, unable to even meet Twilight's eyes, a blush glowing hot on her face. "What if she's a beautiful, confident, real smart mare of status? Somepony Ah've known for years and have wanted to tell about the way Ah've felt...but never knew how. Never knew how she'd react to me...likin' her like that..."

Twilight reached over and put one of her hooves on Applejack's hoof, realizing it was lightly shaking. "Applejack, you're trembling," Twilight said calmly, with the named mare then looking up to her upon feeling her hoof land atop her own. Twilight's hoof was warm and soft, and the gesture would usually be comforting if not for the situation Applejack had put herself in by inviting her over with this on her mind.

Applejack thought, gulped, and forced herself to look into Twilight's eyes. "Twi...Ah... asked ya here ta...ta tell ya somethin'..."

Twilight nodded, offering a comforting smile. "You can tell me anything. I'm one of your best friends, and I couldn't imagine anything that could ever change my mind about you." she said, starting to softly rub on Applejack's cannon, comforting her as well as she could. She knew love could be a touchy subject, especially given that the mare in question, whom many ponies viewed as a straight-laced mare in every respect, admitted to being interested in a relation with a mare.

Applejack swallowed hard, her eyes closed as she took a deep breath, before finally speaking what she needed to, lifting the weight she'd had on her chest for years but never had the nerve to let loose. "Twi..." Applejack started, before looking the named mare dead in the eyes, "...Ah...Ah think Ah love ya."

Twilight was stark still after Applejack had said that, the soft, calming petting she'd started doing on her hoof having stopped as well. The silence in the room was palpable, the room completely quiet save for their breathing and the steady ticking of the clock. Eventually, Twilight shook herself out of her daze and cleared her throat. "Well, uh...well this...this certainly isn't what I was expecting when you asked me over..." Twilight said, following it by a nervous giggle. After all, how was she supposed to react to everything she thought she knew about Applejack being turned upside down in a second; to react to the admission of love made to her and so suddenly revealed.

Applejack looked down to her hoof with Twilight's still on it and nearly felt like crying as she'd remained quiet after what was said, a look of confusion on her muzzle. She'd messed this up hadn't she, being so sudden about her declaration like that. She could have stayed in the wonderful friendship she'd had, and yet she just had to tell Twilight about this feeling she'd had for her since not long after they'd first met, and just had to reveal what she'd held bottled up for so many evenings and nights alone in her room, loneliness deep in her heart...

"Twi, Ahm...Ahm real sorry Ah wasted yer time with mah silly nonsense." Applejack started, growing more upset before feeling a light pressure on her hoof again. As she looked up, she saw Twilight smiling softly, finding her purple hoof now wrapped fully around her own.

Twilight seemed undeterred by what Applejack had said, instead simply holding onto her hoof, softly squeezing a bit on occasion. "Applejack, you could never waste my time." Twilight started, Applejack detecting a nervous expression on Twilight's face but still she continued to speak; "When I spend time with you, it's like...it's like I can just relax. With other ponies, even our other friends, it seems like...I have to put an act on for them, you know. Be who they expect me to be with them, and then be who society expects me to be as a Princess as well. But you...you Applejack, are different. With you, I just feel like I can let my mane down so to speak; just have some apple cider and chew the hay. Just relax and be myself."

"It's like you'd never judge me for anything I say, and you'd never expect me to do something beyond what you know I could do. You're just you Applejack, and you like me...you like me for just being me. That's why I could never judge you Applejack, because I know you could never judge anypony else."

Applejack felt as Twilight's hoof gripped a bit tighter, and suddenly the latter leaned forward, closer and closer before finally Applejack felt something warm and soft next to her upper lip and on her muzzle. It would seem Twilight had tried to kiss her on the lips but missed, kissing the side of her muzzle instead. Despite it being unexpected, and rather an adorkable act she had to admit, Applejack decided to right the miss and shifted her muzzle to meet Twilight's, then pushed into a rather delightful sensation of her lips meeting her friend's.

Twilight gave a slightly startled, confused 'mmph?!' from the sudden, surprisingly pleasant feeling of another's lips on her own, and despite being the one who had started it, let herself melt into Applejack's kiss; melting into her very first kiss. Applejack heard a quiet, feathery 'poomph' from in front of her, and from her experience of being around Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash so much, she was sure that it was Twilight's wings flaring out either in surprise...or possibly arousal?

Applejack herself was surprised she was kissing Twilight but still she continued, their muzzles and lips suddenly, softly grinding together as Twilight pressed back into her, their breathing increasing a pace as did their actions. Applejack held Twilight in the gentle kiss for a good long while, with her taking the lead as the only one with any apparent experience and Twilight simply let her, with both enjoying the tingles rolling up and down their spines. It all felt so...right to her.

Twilight eventually felt as Applejack relented now after what felt like an eternity of pleasure later, leaving her to catch her breath as she apparently did the same when their muzzles parted. Both mares had a hot blush glowing on their faces, Applejack's Stetson now askew and Twilight's wings fully erect behind her.

It was silent for a while before Twilight finally looked back to Applejack, with her hoof still holding her friend's tightly all throughout their osculation, not having wanted to let go. "Applejack, I..." Twilight stuttered, as though digging for the words, seemingly unable to find them and only giving a frustrated huff as they'd eluded her.

Both simply looked at each other for a while as they held hooves over the small dinette table, each holding a small smile before Applejack leaned in for another kiss. Twilight gladly accepted it, leaning forward to the orange muzzle approaching her and letting the farm mare's muzzle so gently, delicately overtake hers again, electricity rolling down her spine as she felt their lips connect again, a passive flavor of apple entering her mouth and making her realize that Applejack must have recently eaten one. That flavor was mixed with the tea from just now and another distinct flavor; one that could only be Applejack's own. Twilight found herself quite liking that flavor most of all.

Suddenly, Applejack felt as Twilight's tongue tapped on her teeth, and opened her mouth on instinct. Twilight's tongue was clearly inexperienced but even still the sensation of another's tongue on Applejack's own was quite something, stronger tingles going up her spine as she found herself straining against the table to get closer to Twilight. Reluctantly Applejack broke the kiss, getting a confused look from Twilight as she then stood.

Soon, however, Applejack trotted over and resumed the kiss, this time surprising the other mare as she rolled her onto her back on the dinette bench, Applejack then standing on her back hooves and leaning over her she resumed the kiss, her chest rubbing against Twilight's. Twilight was once more surprised at how...assertive Applejack was being but let herself be pinned so lovingly against the bench, letting Applejack's lips meet hers again, letting her own forehooves curl around her back and held her tightly. This was all so sudden, so random...yet it all felt so right to her. It felt so...nice.

Minutes later, Applejack finally relented, ending the kiss with a strand of their mixed saliva joining them together for but a moment before it snapped. Applejack backed up and got onto all fours again but Twilight still laid there, staring into space...and thinking. Thinking of how safe Applejack always made her feel, and how she was always the bastion for the group; a reliable, stalwart ally who would ground anypony who thought they couldn't do something that she truly knew they could.

Ever since Applejack saved her from falling off that cliff all those years ago, and had comforted her to let go at the right time into the arms of safety, Twilight had always felt safer next to Applejack. She felt like she could be beside Applejack in any situation, and that she would always have her back, no matter what they may face; may it be a hydra, or a magic-stealing centaur from Tartarus, or simply somepony with power and a chip on their shoulder who needed a stern talking-to.

Finally, Twilight seemed to find the words that had so evaded her earlier as she lay there, panting lightly from the sensual overload her first kiss had given her, a swirl of emotions and nervousness flowing through her as she considered the words that she'd found. The words she spoke with the upmost sincerity as she lay prone on her back still, Applejack looking lovingly down upon her.

"Applejack...I think...that I love you too." Twilight stammered, and Applejack only nodded, before leaning over her and giving her another soft kiss.

"Twi, would...would ya maybe wanna...hang out sometime? Like, maybe as...more than friends?" Applejack asked with a hint of her hesitance from earlier coming back. Everything was moving so fast now, and she was having trouble keeping up. As Twilight leaned up and gave her a quick peck on the top of her muzzle, Applejack couldn't help but smile as she looked downwards at her friend.

"I would love to, Applejack." Twilight said, unsure about what opening this door may bring but knowing that this is what she wanted. She wanted Applejack.

Author's Note

And so it begins.

Of Many To Come, The First

It was a few days later after Applejack and Twilight first agreed to give dating a try, with them having agreed on a date to meet on the day after, Twilight once more waiting outside of the front door of the Applejack's home one mid-afternoon after having just knocked after arriving there via her blink spell. A moment later the door was answered by Applejack, with her mouth full of what appeared to be the handle of a wicker basket smelling of food and with a white cloth covering it. After setting it aside for the moment, she quickly wrapped Twilight in a large hug.

"So ya ready t' go, Twi'? Ah was thinkin' of us takin' a li'l' walk an' havin' a picnic. Ah got th' perfect place planned out too, not too far from here." Applejack said after releasing her mare-friend from her embrace, a smile crossing her muzzle as she did. They'd yet to tell anypony about their decision to start dating yet, planning to tell their friends and family once they decided they were wanting to go steady and that this wouldn't just be some one-time thing.

Twilight's expression suddenly changed to one of panic when Applejack announced her plans for the evening. "Oh no....no no no!" Twilight said in a panicked chant, prancing in place, clearly upset about something. Ah nuts, she jus' arrived, and she's already in a tizzy. What did Ah do wrong...? Applejack thought, watching as her friend virtually had a nervous breakdown in front of her.

Applejack quickly moved to get the reigns on the situation; "Twi', what'sa matter?" she asked in a cool, grounded tone, one which quickly snapped Twilight's attention to her, with the once-near-hysterical alicorn now simply looking nervous as she looked at her friend.

"Well, its just that I've been doing a lot of...studying on dating in these past few days since...well, since you basically asked me out. I've read everything I could find on proper dating procedures; how to impress your date, what to wear if anything at all, good conversation starters...but...nowhere in any of the books did it mention...outdoor activities!" Twilight nearly shouted the last part, her wings unfurling from her body and stiffening out to her sides. "I...I haven't studied for having a picnic date! I mean there were so many things to study, from proper napkin placement to what to wear to..." Twilight continued on her tangent, the tone of her voice rising as she started flapping her wings subconsciously in her excitement, starting to rise into the air before she even realized it.

Applejack noticed it however and quickly moved to ground the accidentally-skyward pony, reaching up and giving her back leg a gentle tug, snapping Twilight out of her rant about there always being dinner and salad forks and why it makes no sense to have both. Twilight simply blinked as she then settled back to the ground, folding her wings in as she realized she'd started taking flight in her distress, looking at the ground with a keen interest and pawing at it with a deep blush on her cheeks.

Applejack reached over a hoof to the downward-facing muzzle of her friend and possibly to-be filly-friend, putting it under her chin and lifting it up to slowly meet her muzzle in a soft kiss. Twilight's blush grew, but she found herself leaning into the comforting smooch as she had the first time, letting all of her once-rampant thoughts fade away and be replaced by those gentle tingles going up her back, the sensation of soft lips on her own and the flavor of a rustic farmer mare rolling through her head.

Applejack only held the kiss for a short while, long enough to distract Twilight from her incessant worrying about every little detail of everything she ever did. "Twi', we're jus' goin' fer a picnic. Ain't no reason to go floatin' off in a tizzy jus' cuz y' ain't studied 'bout goin' on an 'outdoor date'. Jus' relax. Take a few breaths." Applejack said, watching as Twilight took her advice, taking a few deep breaths and visibly relaxing some as she did. "This is supposed t' be fun, remember? It ain't like ya can pass or fail an outing with a friend." she finished with a comforting smile, watching Twilight's worried expression morph into a small smile of her own, only to once more fade.

"But Applejack, this isn't just an outing, this is a date, with you; and...and all of those books I read...they were all about mares and stallions getting together and going on dates. I couldn't find a single one where there were two mares, and that made me think that maybe this isn't a good idea, that maybe—mmph?!"

Twilight once more felt her words fade into a startled mumble, before transforming completely into a soft moan of pleasure as she once more felt those cowpony lips on her own, pushing all of the thoughts out of her mind and instead filling her with the sensations of another pony holding her close, and of soft lips on her own. The worry she was once feeling seemed to go by the wayside, her mind pleasantly numbed as she was once more enraptured by how good such a simple interaction could feel, letting herself melt into the hoof embracing her, and the mare's chest to whom it belonged to.

After a few moments more passed Applejack once more broke the kiss, leaving Twilight with once-more unfurled wings, but knowing she'd taken flight in an entirely different way this time. "Geez Twi', is givin' ya a smooch th' only way t' get ya t' stop sweatin' the small stuff?" Applejack asked with a chuckle, giving a smirk to the named as she watched her shift, struggling to get her stiffened wings to fold in again and clearly having some trouble accomplishing that feat.

Before Twilight could respond, Applejack simply reached over and grabbed the basket from the ground, starting to trot down the main path towards the front gate. Twilight went to call out to her, to tell her again how nervous she was about not having planned for a picnic on their first date, but instead gave a defeated sigh as she followed behind the trotting mare who was now leading the way, the thoughts of what could go wrong slowly resurfacing as they made their way to wherever had been planned.

A few minutes later, the two arrived in an unclaimed, wild meadow just outside of the boundaries of Ponyville. Walking through the knee-high grass and wildflowers that grew there, the scents of them, crisp country air, and the green scent of the grass crunching under their hooves, made Twilight enjoy the moment, her worries forgotten for the moment. Applejack nudged against her and nodded her head towards a small hill, a green hump growing taller than the overgrown vegetation, clearly asking Twilight to follow.

Soon after, the two arrived atop the hill after a short, easy climb and as Twilight looked over towards whence they came, a quiet surprised gasp came from her. Twilight sat and looked on at the beautiful vista presented to her, her eyes wide at how breathtaking it was. The hill overlooked the entirety of Sweet Apple Acres and indeed Ponyville, an entire panorama of the farm settlement, and more distant sprawling cottages and homes visible. In the great distance one could just make out Canterlot, and in another direction the entrance to the Everfree Forest if they had the eyes for it.

While Twilight took in the view that Applejack regularly partook in, the farm mare swiftly unpacked the mid-sized basket of its contents, laying them upon the old blanket she'd brought with them and had spread out over the grass. Their meal set up adequately, Applejack came over and joined Twilight in looking over that panoramic view, giving a satisfied sigh as she sat beside her friend. "Ain't it a beauty?" she asked, smiling as she looked over the view, "Mac and Ah found this place when we were explorin' as foals an' it quickly became one of our favorite hang-out spots. The meadow started out bein' a place we'd come an' play, but as we grew older and climbed th' hill the first time, we started usin' it fer when we just...wanted t' get away from the farm, heck the world, fer a while. When we just needed time t' think, or relax. Our little sanctuary."

Applejack felt her smile widen as she felt Twilight suddenly rub the side of her head against her own, reaching a hoof up just in time to prevent her Stetson from falling off from the action. She and Twilight just sat there for a while, sitting together and enjoying the quiet sounds of the wind and birds singing, before a rumble in Twilight's stomach interrupted the quiet sounds of nature with some of her own.

"Heh heh... I guess I should have eaten some of those haycakes Spike made earlier instead of reading 'A Study of Traditional Equine Courting Etiquette'..." Twilight mumbled more to herself than anything, simply getting a chuckle from Applejack as she nudged Twilight with her muzzle before standing herself, walking over to the huge picnic spread she'd brought.

Twilight looked at the massive spread presented to her – from the pile of apple fritters, to the four large apples, to the thickly-packed floral-and-grass sandwiches, to the couple of fair-sized bottle of golden-brown liquid that could only be the famous Apple Family Cider, to the several covered dishes that undoubtedly contained some side dishes – and had no idea how Applejack would expect only the two of them to eat so much! At the moment however, Twi felt like she could eat a whole field of grass and follow it with a few bushels of apples after skipping breakfast, so she was more than eager to lay on the soft old blanket before the huge spread, a moment later being offered to take whatever she wanted.

"Go 'head 'n' eat all ya want. Ah brought plenty." Applejack said, waving a hoof over the whole spread and getting a very grateful smile from Twilight as she levitated one of the hefty sandwiches over to her place setting, Applejack then uncovering the dishes to reveal a container of home-style chunky potato salad and some rhubarb salad, along with coleslaw in the third. There was easily enough here to feed them, plus at least four other ponies! "Heh, Ah think Ah may've over-packed a bit..."

Twilight didn't pay much mind to the quantity so much as the quality, giving a pleased 'mmm' as she sunk her teeth into the sandwich and found it loaded with mayonnaise just the way she liked it, also not noticing just how messy she was being as she got mayo all over her mouth as she ate in a manner certainly not befitting a Princess, and indeed just short of ravenous. Soon after, Applejack joined Twilight in eating, grabbing a sandwich of her own and starting to chow down, before Twilight scooped up some potato salad in her magic and placed it in her own plate.

The two ate quietly for a while, before Applejack looked over to the town they both called home, smiling softly as she did. From up here, everything looked so small, like the ponies were nothing more than multi-colored specks moving around, their individual features nearly indistinguishable. "Hey Twi, y'ever think this is what them dragons'er other big critters see us as? Jus' some little bitty thangs?" Applejack asked, breaking the silence after she swallowed down a bite of the Braeburn apple she was eating.

Twilight stopped chewing as she considered the question of perspective, before giving a shrug and resuming her mastication. "Well, I'd imagine we're like much smaller creatures to them obviously...so maybe to them, we're like rabbits would be in comparison to us ponies, or maybe birds in the case of Pegusi..." Twilight said, before clearing her throat; "Of course, from a power standpoint, they're much more dominate in strength and raw physical power, but..."

Applejack couldn't help but chuckle as Twilight went on in great detail about how she thought ponies looked to dragons based on what she'd read about their psychology and other factors, the prior waiting for her to finish before giving a simple 'eyup' in response. After that, they talked about this and that while they ate and drank their fill, simply enjoying the company of the other as Applejack spoke briefly about her time in the orchard that day, before Twilight went off on a tangent, out of nowhere, about Hoofocrates and how he helped revolutionize the equine medical system thousands of years ago. Applejack thought with a smirk.

After a while more talking, eating, drinking and laughing, Applejack belched loudly as she found herself quite happily stuffed, patting her belly and noticing Twilight had stopping eating at about the same time, apparently full as well. Twilight quickly noticed that there were probably enough leftovers to feed half a regiment of starving soldiers, and swiftly used her magic to start gathering them, wrapping them back up before sorting them neatly back into the basket.

Applejack grabbed the second bottle of cider out of Twilight's telekinetic grip before she put it away however, also grabbing up the two thrice-drained cider mugs off of the blanket as well, quickly getting to work on filling them up a fourth time. Twilight was feeling rather 'loose' after her two alcoholic drinks, somewhat of a lightweight in drinking it would seem, whilst Applejack remained mostly unphased by it. Twilight had the cutest little blush Applejack had ever seen on her face as she swayed back and forth ever-so-slightly, it being clear the hard cider was having some effects on her.

"Twi', want another mug?" Applejack asked, offering the poured mug to her. Twilight initially shook her head 'no', before a moment later took the mug from her compatriot's hoof, chugging down half before giving a loud burp, giggling softly after it.

"Y-y' make really good cider Apple...jack." Twilight said with a hiccup, visibly inebriated now and swaying back and forth a bit more now that the drink had settled in.

"Well, uh, thanks Twi'." Applejack said, not sure what to say as she took a swig from her own mug. When she lowered it again, she saw that Twilight had set aside her own now-empty mug, and had apparently gotten much closer to Applejack now, so close that Twilight accidentally bumped into her with one of her sways.

"T-Thanks fer this Apple...sack." Twilight said, before suddenly bursting out laughing loudly at her own misnomer for her friend. After wiping a tear from her eye as she finally reduced her laughs to giggles a moment later and finding a hoof now wrapped around her crest, Twilight simply nuzzled into the warm body beside her, quickly finding that it was Applejack's neck. "B-But really, t'day was the most...moooost fun I've had in a long time!" Twilight mumbled, her face still buried in the soft, warm spot it had found.

"Well yer welcome Sugarcube. It feels nice t' just kick mah boots off an' relax, an' have a few drinks with a friend fer a change mahself." Applejack said, feeling as Twilight nuzzled into her, finding she rather liked that feeling of another pony so close to her. Applejack continued to hold her mare-friend in a close embrace as she continued to nuzzle against her for a moment, before feeling Twilight's lips pucker as she planted a sudden kiss on her neck, sending a tingle down Applejack's back at that sensation.

"Oh, so it's like 'at, is it?" Applejack said, only to get another stream of giggles from Twilight, feeling another couple of soft kisses now along the line of her jaw alongside the slow rumble of the mare's laugh against her. Applejack retaliated by gently nipping at a nearby lavender ear, hearing a quiet yelp of surprise as she did. "Fahr's fahr Twiffite." Applejack tried to say, her speech interrupted by the flap of now-rapidly-twitching skin and fur now in her mouth. A second later, Applejack felt another's barrel collide with hers, finding that Twilight suddenly shoved against her, making her ear slip from her mouth and taking the larger Earth-pony off-guard, making her tumble to her side and being followed by the instigator of it landing on top of her.

Now pinned beneath her, Applejack squirmed, but quickly found a raspberry-red glow forming on Twilight's horn, finding it mirrored on each of her limbs and making it so she couldn't move. She initially squirmed to try and escape the spell, but it was just too strong. "Y'all's cheatin'!" Applejack exclaimed, only to hear a quiet chuckle from Twilight.

"All's fair in love an' war!" exclaimed Twilight, before planting her muzzle onto Applejack's again. The pinned pony tried to rebel further, but quickly found the tingle of pleasure up and down her spine too alluring to resist. The gentle flavor of her friend's mouth invaded her own, alongside the flavor of lunch and apple cider, made her press into Twilight's muzzle more...only for her to pull away.

"Hey, um...A-Applejack? You're...kinda getting the blanket wet." Twilight stated, with Applejack only just noticing with Twilight's help that she'd been getting incredibly aroused, whether from being held down, kissed, or possibly even both, and her body was showing it physically. A deep blush formed on her cheeks as she tried to look away from Twilight, and instead at a nearby flower.

"S-Sorry Twi, Ah don't mean nothin' by it. It's jus' yer such a sexy mare, and yer kissin' me—" Applejack stammered out, trying her darndest to apologize for her involuntary reaction – only to be interrupted by Twilight's hoof pushing against her muzzle gently and making her face her, then lips on her own once more.

Muzzles mashed together gently and hot breath washed over each other as they continued where they'd left off, tingles running down both mare's spines and throughout their bodies before Twilight finally relented, leaving both panting hotly on each other. Both simply looked at each other, then Twilight gave a big smile.

"Well, I can't say anypony's ever gotten...'wet' because of m-me before..." Twilight said, releasing her magic on Applejack and letting her move freely again. The first thing Applejack did was close her hind legs, her tail swishing to hide her aroused marehood now that she was able to. She was just short of mortified, about to apologize again, before Twilight finished her sentence; "...but I...kinda like that feeling of being able to do that to a m-...a ma-...somepony..."

Applejack was dumbstruck. "Wuh-huh?" she stammered, only to get what could only be Twilight's best attempt at bedroom eyes. They certainly seemed to serve their purpose, as Applejack now felt a trickle of wetness roll down her stifle and onto the blanket, joining the small dark-spot she'd already left there. She was indeed quite aroused. "Twi, are...are y'all tryin' t' seduce me?" she asked unsurely,

Twilight's risque expression flashed to nervousness of her own, starting to squirm a bit, her wing fluttering slightly. "I...I don't know? Am I doing a...good job? I didn't study much in sedu-...bein' sexy, so I don' even know what I'm doing!" she stammered out, her voice starting to take a panicked tone again.

"Now Twi, not e'rythin' has t' be jus' so-so when it comes t' courtin'." Applejack said comfortingly, placing a hoof on Twilight, feeling her flinch as she did. "It ain't gotta be in a certain order, where one pony does this an' th' other that. Jus'...jus' do what feels right Twi, an' Ah'll do th' same." Applejack suddenly found Twilight's hoof wrapped around hers.

Then Twilight asked something Applejack wouldn't have expected in a long time. "Applejack, have ya ever, y'know, had sex?"

Applejack squirmed slightly at that question, her upbringing being very sparse in regards to 'breeding', and with no mention ever made to two mares in that regard. "W-well, Ah can't say Ah have." Applejack said simply, and more willingly than she thought she would. "Ah ain't never found a stallion'er mare Ah liked enough t' let 'im...get that far wit' me. Past that, Ah've only...well, Ah've used my hooves durin'... th' breedin' seasons..."

"I see..." Twilight said, before suddenly getting closer to Applejack, her hoof gripping a bit tighter as she put her muzzle right next to her friend's ear, "What wou' ya think 'bout havin' sex with a...a mare?"

The sudden question and the implications that came with it threw Applejack for a loop. "Are y' suggestin'..." Applejack started, only to get a nod from Twilight.

"Applejack, I'm just goin' ta ask. I don't know if this is jus' the cider talking but...all of that readin' got me...real curious about what real sex feels like between two mares. Wou'...wou' you like m-...me to be your first?" Twilight asked, squirming herself in both nervousness and arousal, her still-open wings showing such. "I mean, I don' really have much 'experienceness' past using a...'toy' or my hooves in my est—ester...heat, but..."

Applejack grew silent, deep in thought. One of her closest friends, who also just so happened to be an Alicorn Princess and one of the most powerful beings in Equestria, plus drunk off her flank, had just offered to take her virginity and give her her own in exchange – and in no uncertain terms either. She loved Twilight, both as a friend and quite possibly more, but was she really willing to take this major step with her, and when she was completely plastered?

"Twi... Ah don't know about this. Ah mean, this is only our first date, and....Ah...Ah don't think we should be 'intimate' just yet. Besides, yer not totally yerself, on accounta tha cider. Probably shouldn't've brought it, on second thought..." Applejack explained after some thought, knowing she wasn't quite ready for this so soon in their relationship, and as such trying to let her down gently. She wanted to get to know Twilight more first on a deeper level before taking such a major step with her, despite what her own body said.

Twilight sighed but nodded. "Y-you're right Apple...jack. I don't drink that often, an' it seems...well, I'm kind of sus-ceeeeeptible to intox-toxication." she said, giving a woozy smile as she continued to sway softly.

"It's alright honeycrisp." Applejack said, giving her a smile, "Ah ain't mad at ya 'r nothin'. Matter a fact...c'mere." At that, Applejack held her hooves open, to her, inviting her for a hug. Twilight happily accepted, hugging her friend a bit tighter than normal.

As the sun started to set quite some hours of talking and laughing later, Twilight and Applejack watched it fall below the horizon's crest, then eventually climbed back down the hill before it got too dark. As they approached the main barn Twilight was pretty much herself again, the alcohol mostly having run its course and only leaving her a bit dehydrated in its wake.

"Today was fun Applejack. Thank you for this." Twilight said, giving her mare-friend another hug and Applejack reciprocating.

"Ah, weren't nothin'. Ah had fun too."

"Hey Applejack, is alright if we...kiss again?" Twilight asked, a bit shyly.

"Hay yeah we can, ya beautiful mare." Applejack said and moved forward, meeting her lips with Twilight again. The kiss was cut off, however, as Twilight pulled away and yawned some time later, followed by Applejack giving a reciprocating yawn of her own. "Boy howdy do fun days take it outta ya..."

"Yeah, today was great. Anyways, I guess I should get going. Spike will probably still be waiting up for me, and it's already past his bedtime as it is." Twilight explained, before leaning over for another brief kiss. "We'll definitely have to do something like this again later.

"Ah agree on that Sugar. But fer now, Ah'll see ya later. Tell Spike Ah said 'howdy'."

"Will do," Twilight said as she took to a trot, spread her wings, and took off, soaring through the sky easily now that she had some training from Rainbow Dash and experience. As she flew away, Applejack turned to the front door of her domicile, smiling softly as she still felt the warmth of Twilight's lips on her own.

"Yep, we're definitely gonna have t' do this again." she whispered to herself, before opening the door and heading inside.

Author's Note

Yep, Twilight's a lightweight when it comes to drinking, and apparently gets kind of lewd... :twilightblush:
