Working Out the Kinks

“Rarity, come on!”

“Just a moment longer, dear!”

“Ugh, this is taking forEVER!”

“Honestly, darling, if you complained half as much, we would be done already! I just need a few more snips...aaaaaand...done!”

The clicking and clacking of scissors ceased their echo in the room, as the azure glow surrounding their handle gently motioned them over to the side of the room, laying them gently on the table. Rarity stepped back with a satisfied grin, surveying her work, the fashionista assured that once again she had worked a miracle! After all, not just anypony could claim to have brought even a modicum of class and culture to Ponyville’s resident daredevil.

Before her stood Rainbow Dash, newly primped and preened, and looking like a brand new mare! Or at least, one who showered regularly. Standing proud and tall, the Wonderbolt had her chest out, standing proud as she wore her new mane and tail with pride. After what felt like hours of attention, her shortened manestyle draped over her neck, and her cropped tail hung just below her flanks. The shortened look was all the rage these days, and sure to attract attention from all the right stallions! That’s what Rarity had assured her, at least. Though she had neglected to mention the full extent of her reasoning.

The blue-furred speedster raised a hoof, adopting a signature daring pose, “Awesome! This’ll totally catch Soarin’s eye!” she said, jumping up in excitement. As she flapped up and down, she quickly noticed the draft against the back of her neck, as well as the back of her legs. With an uncertain look and a nervous laugh, Dash quickly dropped back down.

“Heh heh, I guess I gotta be a bit more careful with this manestyle.”

“Nonsense, darling!” Rarity was quick to correct her, trotting up to comfort her friend, an unquestionable note of certainty in her voice. “You remember the whole plan, don’t you?”

Shifting her weight from hoof to hoof, Dash nodded, “Uh, yeah. You make my mane and tail all fancy, then I go meet Soarin at the gym, and he thinks I look TOTALLY awesome, and falls for me!” she replied, confidence growing with each word.

Rarity raised an eyebrow skeptically. “Yes, well, I suppose being yourself was always going to be the plan of action. Though that doesn’t mean I can’t add a few last finishing touches!”

Ever the opportunist, Rarity quickly flared her magic, reaching into the drawer on the table next to her and pulling out two hair bands. Gathering up Rainbow’s mane in her hooves, she quickly pulled together the multicolored strands, working carefully to maintain separation of the colors for maximum effect. Wrapping the band around her hair in a loose bun, Rarity maneuvered herself behind her friend, gathering up her tail casually and raising it up above her dock. Folding the strands over themselves, she looped the tight hairband over the shorter tail, ensuring it bunched around the athletic pegasus’ dock, and remained poised high above her flanks!

With a slight blush, Dash flicked an ear in annoyance. With her tail tied up, there was nothing to hide her privacy between her legs. The short velvety fur coating the darker skin of her plump lower lips, as well as the tight ring of her ponut on full display to the room behind her. As she shifted once more uncomfortably on her hind legs, the soft skin of her labia twitched lightly, the tight crease separating her womanly lips separating ever so slightly at the tension and revealing the barest hint of light pink. “Uh, Rarity...if I wear my tail like this, everyone is gonna be able to see my, uh…my pussy”

Rarity rolled her eyes, “Honestly, Dash, must you be so crass? Call it a ‘marehood’ at the very least! But alas, that is how it must be done. We can’t have you sweating all over your freshly done mane and tail now, can we? Besides! Stallions like soarin appreciate knowing what they’re working for! And with a bit of hard work, a bit of sweat, and just the right lighting, why I’m sure you’ll look absolutely irresistible! Though if we want to make absolutely sure...hmmm” Rarity thought out loud, frowning slightly as she stared intently at Dash’s posterior.

Raising one leg, she lightly poked her velvety hoof into the soft, supple flesh of Dash’s posterior, then into the fleshy dark blue lips of the smaller pegasus mare’s labia. Despite the brash girl’s constant exercise, she really was soft where it counted. Soarin was sure to appreciate it, at least, Rarity thought.

“Hey, Rarity? Can I go yet?” Dash asked with a slightly uncomfortable look on her face. While she was fully accustomed to walking around in the nude, as were most ponies in Ponyville, she felt she should really draw the line somewhere. And her friend staring and poking at the hole between her legs seemed like as good a place as any.

“Hmm, yes yes, in one more second.” the fashionista insisted, her horn once more erupting in a cone of azure light as she reached for a makeup kit in the ever useful table beside the two mares. Pulling out an applicator brush, she dabbed it quickly in blush, then brought it down to bear on her friend’s flank. “Just a bit of blush to draw the eye...yes, that’s perfect! And let’s not forget where we really want him to look…”

“Wait, is this just an elaborate way to get me to flashAH!” Dash cried out, jumping as the soft bristles began stroking over her vulva, tickling her sensitive flesh. The soft brush dragged up and down, applying a subtle coat of red across her slit, and working it up over her perineum, and to her fleshy rosebud. Jumping up, she quickly trotted away, deciding she didn’t feel like waiting to see where Rarity thought she should wear the lipstick. “ThanksforthehelpRaritybye!” she spat out quickly before taking off through the window, slamming the shades open loudly in the process.

“OH AT LEAST USE THE DOOR!” the unicorn shouted after her friend, before magicing over her brush, and trotting over to close the shades. “Well at least Soarin already likes her…”
