Rarity blinked and then she repeated that action a few times as her mind tried to come back to full and running order. "Say again dear?"

"I- I said I want a foal. That's what's been bothering me." Fluttershy admitted again as she looked away in shame.

Rarity was quick to catch on though "Fluttershy dear." She gently pulled Fluttershy's face back towards her "Fluttershy, look at me. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Nothing. You're the eldest of we six and it's only natural that you've reached a point in your life that you yearn for something more."

"You're just saying that..."

Rarity held back a groan as she smiled and pulled her friend into a gentle hug. "Now, now. There is nothing, nothing to be ashamed of and I would never just lie to you like that. You're my friend darling. That's not going to change and I would sooner shave my mane than treat you as anything less." She declared as she gave a gentle nuzzle to her "Now. Tell me. How long have you been thinking about this? A foal is a huge-"

"A year and two months." Fluttershy quickly interjected. "I- I've wanted one for a while but... it's all I can think about now. I want one. I've been learning how to take care of one. How to raise one. I just... I just don't know who I could ask... You know me Rarity. I'm already a nervous wreck. Asking a stallion this?" She shook her head "I can't do that"

"Idea~!"
