Rarity floated, both mentally and physically. The heated spring water was crystal clear, just as she felt. Lotus Blossom had shown her what it was to be dirty, again and again. She had driven Rarity's sense of uncompromising beauty into the mud and then lifted her back out, each time. Now, feeling more clean and pristine than she had in her life, the unicorn mare knew the exact relaxation she had sought when coming here.

She had no idea how long she just lay in that mineral-rich pool, but finally she knew she needed to move on. "Hello?" Aloe immediately moved from out of view and brought a small pile of towels.

"How is Rrarrity doin-k?" Aloe set the towels by the side of the pool and awaited the fashionista's emergence.

"Every time I come here, every time you surprise me with a new treatment." Rarity climbed out, levitating the towels over to put them to work. "Every time it feels like a miracle of relaxation." She ended up wrapping one around her mane, careful to lay the hair neatly into the fabric.

"It iz ourr gift." Aloe gave a little bow and gestured to a lounge. "And now, of courrse, hooficure, as if we vould forrget that."

Rarity practically pranced to the lounge and lay down, offering her hoof to Aloe when she gestured for it. "And what is my price this time, darling?"

Aloe's face barely held any hint of an emotion beyond delight at being able to serve. "Norrmally we would not drream of askin-k zo soon. But for you," she was already gently working at a slight corn on one hoof, "forr you, we ask forr new outfits."

The unicorn gave a giggle. "Aloe, you need only have asked for those." Rarity watched as her hoof was given the most precise care.

"Did I not just?" Aloe tilted her head, getting a grin from Rarity. "But if you inzzist." Aloe moved around, taking up one of Rarity's back hooves. "My sizterr and I, we hearr little rrumors." Finding a particularly rough little callous she began to gently file away at it.

Rarity blushed. She knew what rumors the mare spoke of. It was one thing for one's friends to know of, and sometimes enjoy, your dominant urges, and quite another for every pony in town to. "I am sure I know the one of which you speak." Rarity fell back to her formal speech to hide her shock and worry.

"My sizterr and I, we arre not in zis buzinez by chance." Aloe worked on the hoof and gestured to Lotus, who moved silently in to take up Rarity's other hoof.

"We have zis urge, we enjoy zerving." Lotus blew gently on the hoof.

Her curiosity was piqued, Rarity turned her head to look back on the mares and a whole new vista revealed itself. Each was carefully caring for her hooves, why, they did absolutely anything they could to make her feel better. "A little softer, if you please." No sooner were the words from her snout than Rarity saw Lotus' mask of detachment slip and the mare shuddered a little. "I think that is almost enough with my hooves. My tail and mane could use some work."

Aloe wasn't sure if the mare was toying with her or was just being her normal self. That little fact made this, if anything, even more delightful. "Yes, mizz Rrarity." She bobbed her head and put the hooficure brush and file aside and lifted out a mane-brush. She began to work it at the tip of Rarity's tail, working out any knots and slowly making her way up the gloriously cared-for hair.

Rarity wore a smile now, her eyes closed as she ran through ideas. The attention to both mane and tail were tender and well practiced. "You girls are very good at this, how about you start on my fur, Aloe?"

Lotus watched her sister, seeing the slight confusion on her face. She worked at Rarity's mane until it had all its usual shine and bounce. "Mizz Rrarity, may I begin on your fur too?" She got barely a nod, but it was a nod. Changing brushes she started on the pristine coat of the unicorn only to have her roll to her side and then a little further. Seeing her opportunity, she took the mare's barrel while gently nudging her sister down further 'south'.

Aloe looked between her work and her sister, a little surprised by Lotus' bold move. But then she saw something that changed her focus. Winking slowly, moving with the slight undulations in the unicorn's muscles, her vulva looked a little damp, slightly pouting. Then it hit her that it wasn't happenstance, it wasn't 'just play'. This was real play. "Mizz Rrarity, I must prepare some oils to work into your fur." Aloe got some oil onto her hooves, rubbing them together rapidly to warm it. She brought them down onto the soft udder.

Almost jumping at the touch, Rarity had been ready, but not for this. She gave a soft sigh of bliss, feeling the repeated stroking and rubbing of her udder, basking in the warm oils being worked into her soft flesh. Aloe's talented hooves worked up and down her inner thigh, working all the softest, most sensitive places. She wondered the earth pony's intent right up until a snout pressed gently to her folds and kissed them.

The moan her 'customer' gave, delighted Aloe. She extended her tongue and began to bathe the mare's mound in licks and soft nibbles. "Iz my zister performing correctly?" Lotus' words were almost unheard by both mares, so caught up in their little fun were they.

Rarity didn't need to think, didn't need to do anything but react. "Mistress." She gave a tiny moan. "You will call me Mistress when we are alone like this."

"Yez, Miztrress." Lotus too acquired some scented oils to work into Rarity's fur and, between the two sisters, they had the unicorn practically purring. Hearing the title spoken with the mare's particular accent was a whole new sensation, as was the wonderful attention her sister gave to her work.

Applejack had a determined look on her face as she watched the sun rising. She inhaled deeply and turned back to the bed; from what she had heard, this was the first night for a while that Maneiac hadn't shared it. "Gel."

"Awake early." Gel stretched on the bed, doing contortions that nopony, let alone anything made with bones and muscle, should be able to do. "What's the matter? Is it about Mane?"

The questions got a snort from the earth pony. "Nah, ain't nothin' wrong with her. Being tricked so much I can see how she'd not be thinking too straight. She will have to ask nice to get me, though." AJ was even surprised. She stopped and blinked, realizing she meant the words. "But it ain't about that." She walked closer to the bed, to Gel. "Twi carries our foals, both of ours." Her breath came slow, as if the words were spilling from the core of her being. "Got so a mare had to think about foals herself." She leaned into Gel, kissing him to delay his reply.

Gel was surprised and delighted. "You don't want to wait for Twi to have hers?" He nibbled along her jaw, getting the orange mare to blush at his intimacy. "Remember, a foal from me will have, at the very least, a darker heritage. They could even be quite a bit more unique."

Applejack shrugged. "You sayin' I should find another stallion?" She hadn't thought about that for a second. "Because I ain't gonna do a silly thing like that, not when there is the most honest changeling in Equestria ready and able." She knew this stallion had always been honest with her, except that first meeting. "I want your foal, Gel Pattern, I want our family to grow."

The stallion nipped at his awake wife's shoulder. "I like those words. Could you say them again?" Gel was feeling quite roused.

"I said, you thick-skulled stallion. I want your foal. I want to raise them alongside Twi's. I want us to be a big family in this empty castle." Applejack shivered happily when the nibbling of the changeling went down her back to her tied-up tail. She obliged him, lifting the appendage.

"Do you know your cycle or will we just have to keep trying?" Gel nuzzled under his wife's tail, working his talented lips down her plot to settle at her vulva. He held off from really going at her, wanting her to answer.

"Things get a bit complicated when you do so much hard work. Gets so a girl can't rightly tell." With the information from Applejack, Gel worked his tongue along her sensitive lips, stealing any further words from the mare as she moaned.

"Tell what?" Twilight lifted her head from sleep, smiling to see her two favorite ponies already awake and clearly playful.

"If I am fertile." Applejack hated lying, so she blushed even as she told her wife what she had meant. As it was, she barely got the words out before gasping.

Twilight's belly was a bit too heavy for a quick action, but she rolled to her feet and walked slowly beside AJ. "You want a foal too?" The mare nodded, her words now lost. Twilight leaned in and nipped at the earth pony's flank. "Gel, you are going to have to do a lot of work if she doesn't have her cycle worked out."

Gel lifted his damp snout up, smiling like the emperor of a whole world would. "I believe I am up to the task." His nostrils flared, inhaling the musk AJ had covered him with. He didn't delay further, lifting himself up atop the mare, riding her back and gaining the right position.

Not wanting to wait for her eager husband, Applejack pushed backwards. She knew full well Gel would be able to aim perfectly and trusted, correctly, in that. A few inches of his girth sunk into her and the mare trembled with self-achieved pleasure.

"I think that is first point to AJ." Twilight summoned a scroll and quill, the grin on her snout absolutely incorrigible.

"There's a score?" Gel blinked, then groaned as AJ pushed back again. He suddenly realized he was likely going to lose, but didn't care. "I will not lose." He bucked forward, driving himself deep into the eager pony, teasing a loud groan from her. It was the smallest white lie, of course, he knew AJ had quite the competitive streak and suddenly figured out that it was exactly what Twi had stirred.

Applejack would not be beaten, not if there was an informal, but judged, contest in this. She grinned and grit her teeth, pushing back and squeezing tight, only to have a ripple move up and down the shaft in her, startling her from her pace.

The pair danced, as mare and stallion have done for centuries. Gel added something a little extra, with the occasional ripple to his member, but Applejack was just as quick to counter, earning a groan from the stallion as she squeezed down on him tightly. Both grew more and more ragged in their actions, motions becoming strong and very pronounced.

"Neck and neck." Twilight egged both her lovers on, teasing them by occasionally giving a point to the other. She watched as both worked themselves into a fury of lovemaking. Gel did indeed lose, his eyes screwing closed as he bucked amazingly fast, his thighs pressing in against AJ's rump.

"I… win…" Applejack barely got the words out before she succumbed to her own release. Urged to more and more pleasure by the hot stallion seed spreading inside her, she leaned to the side and caught a kiss from Gel on her cheek.

"You win." Gel added a second, then a third kiss.

Twilight made the score-sheet vanish. "Yup, by a point. Maybe tomorrow, Gel?" She stepped over to kiss each on the cheek.

Gel accepted the kiss with much aplomb then he froze. "I hear somepony downstairs… they are in pain!"

Neither stallion nor mare complained at the quick dismount. The two had a towel rush at each as Twi cleaned them as they ran. Reaching the map room they saw the issue. "Fluttershy?" Twilight was blinking in shock but Gel kept running until he was right beside her.

Flowing into a comfortable couch, Gel lifted himself under the pegasus as she made a rushed gasping pant. "You are doing well. Twi, get a nurse or somepony!"

The words from Gel shook Twilight from her shock. Fluttershy was giving birth and they needed a nurse! "Right!" She blipped out of the room with a little cloud of purple smoke.

AJ trotted around to inspect her friend. "You are doing great Flutters, how long has it been since-"

"I don't know that!" Fluttershy clamped down on her voice a moment after she had screamed it. It wasn't her friend's fault. "Gel, I am going to… to…" Her voice failed as she groaned and pushed.

"Well we do this the harder way." Applejack looked around and spotted Maneiac, stumbling from her own room, obviously from the loud shouting. "Get some towels, water too!" The mare looked shocked at what was going on. "Now!"

"Where's Twi?" Gel held as steady as he could, making sure the mare who was about to birth his foal was as comfortable as he could make her. This was going to be an odd day.

Oh no, Fluttershy is having her foal! PANIC!
