—------------------------

	Fluttershy gently crept forward, keeping close to the ground, hiding amongst the bushes at the edge of Sweet Apple Acres. Her tail wagged silently behind her as she ever so carefully peaked through bunches of leaves, her eyes dashing between the many folks on the farm, until finally, she settled on her target.

	Applejack, planting the last of her carrot seeds. Her legs wobbled, a light blush spread across her nose, and she kept rubbing one of her front hooves against her thighs - she had all the signs. 

	She was desperate. 

	Just yesterday, the two of them had made some… discoveries together at Twilight’s castle, an unexpected relationship forming between them, spawned from a simple pee-related accident. Fluttershy had struggled to sleep that night - she couldn’t stop thinking about how happy she was! She’d shown up at the farm bright and early with a gift for Applejack, a simple bottle of homemade lemonade to help her stay hydrated (the earth pony was a little unsure if she trusted the use of the word “lemonade” after the night before, but after a quick sip, she confirmed it was, in fact, actual lemonade). Unsurprisingly, she’d drunk the whole thing pretty quickly - her love for the mare who had gifted it to her made it much sweeter. Or Fluttershy had just used a lot of sugar - she wasn’t sure. 

	However, it was no normal drink. Fluttershy may have seemed fairly ingenuous at first glance, but she still had her rare moments of trickery. She’d woken up bright and early to visit Zecora in her hut, requesting a potion that would cause one’s bladder to fill much faster than usual - turns out, she had one laying around, and it looked and tasted quite a lot like lemonade. Zecora hadn’t questioned the pony - she just gave her a little wink on her way out. 

	And now, the potion was finally taking effect. Applejack hastily pushed the dirt over the last seed using her back hoof and walked towards the bushes, taking it slow, biting her lip. Just from the way she hoddled over, steps small and steady, her thighs tight, Fluttershy could tell she was desperate as could be. The peeping pony couldn’t stop herself from gently rubbing her warmth.

	She watched as Applejack’s slow stumble turned to a trot, the farm pony picking up the pace, her sight set on a bunch of shrubs buried a little deeper into the acres…

	…where Fluttershy was currently hiding.

	As the desperate pony approached, in her state of horniness, the first thing Fluttershy thought of was how this meant she was hiding in the very bushes that Applejack liked to use every day, a heavenly realization. Her second thought was that she should probably get out of there. 

	She gently crept back, being carefu not to make a sound. If she just got a little bit farther, it would be easy to silently fly away and make it back to her cottage before anyone even knew she was there. She’d tell Applejack about it later - she had a feeling the farm pony wasn’t going to be upset, considering how close they’d gotten last night. 

	SNAP! Fluttershy froze - she’d made the classic mistake of stepping on a branch. And that snap was loud.

	“WHO’S THERE?!” Applejack called out, immediately going from bathroom break mode to intruder mode. Fluttershy gasped and broke out into a run, ignoring the rustling she was making, focusing on nothing but escape. If she could just get a little out of sight, she could fly away without issue! She found herself giggling as she weaved between trees and brush - it all felt so naughty, just like the night before, but even more so! “YOU’RE NOT GETTIN’ AWAY FROM ME!” She looked back - the pegasus couldn’t see her, but she could hear Applejack getting closer. 

Shy hastened, galloping as fast as she could. She was no match in terms of speed, but still, she could fly! She took a sharp right turn, flapped her wings, and shot up into the air! As long as she went fast enough and stayed in the trees, Applejack wouldn’t be able to tell who she was!

However, as she lept into the air, she suddenly found herself halting in place… and then falling.

—-----------------

Applejack was not one to mess around when it came to intruders.

Thieves were not a common issue in Equestria - far from it, really - but when they did come around, it was always very important to make sure they didn’t get away. A good thief could be a powerful thing, especially if they were a unicorn - they could stay 100 feet away from the barn and still manage to magic something out of there. Thankfully, such a thing had never happened, but still, you never know. 

	However, if they were a common thing, Applejack would be catching the grand majority.

	Her time on the farm gave her quite a lot of strength and endurance, as did her training for the various family events she participated in. Few ponies could outrun her. And a pegasus might be able to fly, but that’s where her lasso came in - she was a master at using it to wrangle anything, from the tiniest bunny to a fleeing pegasus.

	Of course, the one she was chasing now was no different.

	She watched as the figure suddenly flew out of the bushes, and with lightning-fast reflexes, she sent her lasso flying, quickly catching the pony in the circle and tightening it. The thief’s wings were pressed firmly against their body, and they fell right out of the sky, landing in the brush below. Applejack smiled triumphantly as she approached…

	“Ow!”

	The farm pony stopped. That voice was… very familiar. High-pitched, soft, a bit airy… and now that she was getting a closer look…

	“Fluttershy?! What in tarnation are you doin’ out here?” She questioned, much more surprised and confused than she was angry. She walked around to stand in front of Flutters, who was currently laying on the ground, her back legs splayed out, her front hooves covering her face shamefully. Her face was as pink as cotton candy.

	She felt so embarrassed - she’d gotten caught so easily! And most embarrassingly of all, she was still horny as could be - in fact, the lasso around her wings, and the way Applejack stood over her… it was so hot!! She loved the scandalous feeling of being a criminal caught in Apple’s rope, waiting to be punished however the farm mare saw fit! “U-um!” She shook in excited lust, trying not to smile too much. She still had to explain herself a little bit, at least.

	“Fluttershy, is everything ok? You seem a mighty bit scared, darlin’ - I didn’t mean to spook ya.” The shy pony peaked from behind her hoof, looking at Applejack’s face - it was full of concern. She realized she needed to step out of the horniness for a moment to explain. 

	“Oh, um… well…” She gulped; it was so embarrassing to say out loud! “Y-you know how I mentioned I fantasize about you, um, relieving yourself on the farm?”

	Applejack chuckled; a hint of a blush showed on her cheeks. “I couldn’t forget it if I tried.” Soon, she was back to rubbing her thighs together - she hadn’t exactly stopped to take a bathroom break during the chase. She was clearly holding back a fierce full bladder.

	“W-well…” She lowered her hooves a little; she let her whole smile cover her face, cute and sweet. “I was really hoping, maybe I could take a peak and see the real thing.” She giggled. 

	“Hehe, I can hardly blame you - after all you told me last night, it’s hard not to imagine you wouldn’t want to see the real thing. Next time, though, maybe just ask?”

	“Oh, but it’s so much more naughty when you don’t know~! But I’ll ask next time if it makes you uncomfortable!”

Applejack chuckled, shaking her head. “No, no - I don’t mind if it’s you. You can peak all you’d like~ Luckily for you, I happen to have a fairly full bladder right now, if you’d like to see me use it~”

	Fluttershy gasped in excitement; her tail swayed. “Oh, can I?! That would be just wonderful!”

	Applejack smirked. “Sure, you can~ But, well, I’m not going to use a bush today~” She walked towards Fluttershy, a mischievous grin on her face. “Why do that when I have a little peepin’ pervert, right in front of me, who needs to be punished~?”

	Fluttershy shuddered in nervous excitement. “Y-you don’t mean… o-oh my!” Her tail wagging quickened. “I-I suppose I can’t stop you, if that’s what you have to do~!” She moved her hooves away from her face, laying them out in front of her, completely defenseless. Her sweet smile made Applejack’s heart melt, just as it always did; the adorable glimmer in her eyes was like a hug to the heart. The earth pony found her hooves shaking as she stepped over Fluttershy for reasons other than desperation. 
	
	Just like the last time, her shadow loomed over the pegasus, though now, the position was a tad different. She faced the opposite direction, her two back hooves beside Flutter’s head, her pussy hovering above her. “Ready for your punishment, sugar~?”

	“Y-yes, Applejack!” The word ‘punishment’ echoed in her ears, making her heart thump. 

	“Here it comes~” Applejack sighed loudly in relief as a fast trickle of steaming urine streamed from her slit, pattering right onto Fluttershy’s forehead. Drops splashed all over, quickly coating Flutter’s mane and Apple’s calves, little wet drops soaking into their fur. It raced down her head, between the eyes, branching off as it met her snout. A tiny sliver made its way down to her mouth - she couldn’t help but take the slightest little taste. Just as good as last time, though way hotter, and much stronger! It made her feel so warm, like the summer sun shining down on her head, her fur soaking in the rays like a flower in bloom. She squirmed - she was the luckiest pony in the world.

	“Ah, that feels amazin’~” Applejack would’ve shut her eyes to enjoy the relief even further if she wasn’t currently loving the view of Fluttershy’s tail flailing like an excited dog. She’d never been so desperate in her whole life, and that chase had only made it worse - it felt amazing to empty it out, and that joy was multiplied by doing it on such an adorable pony. She tilted her head down to watch the buttermilk-yellow fur dampen and turn darker as Flutter absorbed her stream. Something about the lasso made it even hotter - it wasn’t exactly stopping her from running away, but still, even that little bit of restriction made her dominant and powerful. She backed up a slight bit so that her stream pittered off of Flutter’s snout, the pegasus squinting her eyes and letting out another giggle. Her head was totally soaked, mane to chin - even a small puddle was forming beneath it, seeping into the dirt. 

Soon enough, it finally stopped… though not because Applejack was done. “Feelin’ thirsty again, little thief~?” Applejack questioned, stepping back until her head was right in front of Fluttershy, no longer shadowing her. “I still have a little left in my tank~”

“Yes please!” Fluttershy opened her mouth, sticking her tongue out once again, excited for that wonderful taste. Her urine was way stronger today - she was excited to get more of that rich flavor.

“Hmm, let’s see…” Applejack sat down on her butt, two back legs angled out in front of her, and she grabbed Fluttershy’s head, pulling her into the earth pony’s crotch, putting Flutter’s mouth against her desperate pussy. “How about we go a little more direct this time~?”

“Sure~! Tee hee!” She saw just how horny the earth pony really was now that she was so close, her pussy swollen and wet.

“Perfect~” Applejack sighed once again as she released the last bit of her bladder right into Fluttershy’s mouth. The thirsty mare obediently swallowed, trying her best not to let a single drop escape, though a few did drip down her lips, rolling over her chin, soaking into her fur or dropping to the ground. She managed to get the majority, though… and this time, Applejack gave her much more than a simple mouthful. It took at least 15 seconds for her to make her final gulp. “Ah, that was nice~ I’d been holding that one in for a while~”

Fluttershy licked her lips clean; delicious! “I could tell - you looked so desperate out there! It was so cute!”

“You like that, do ya~?” Applejack petted her head, running a hoof through her wet mane. “You looked pretty cute while you were desperate, too~ I’d love to see that again~” 

“Anytime you like, honey - I wouldn’t mind!” She beamed at Applejack. “Though… well, if you were to tie me up a bit more fully, I might not have any choice but to get desperate~”

“Hm hm~ Sounds like someone is still feelin’ a bit naughty~” Applejack tapped Flutter’s nose playfully. “I’ll have you know, I’m pretty good with a rope - can’t guarantee I won’t have some fun with ya once I have you securely tied up~”

“Eep!” Fluttershy squirmed in horniness; multiple fantasies cycled through her head all at once. “I-I’d be so excited to see what you’d do~!”

“Cute~ Well, darling, I should get back to the farm, but before I go…” She lifted Fluttershy’s chin a tad. “Why don’t you clean me up a little~?”

Fluttershy looked at her with confusion for only a moment before realizing. “Oh! Of course, Applejack~” She smiled and moved a little closer to the horny slit, nuzzling her nose against Apple’s belly, before gently pulling her tongue out and giving it a little lick. 

“Mmm~ Go on, sugar~ A little deeper than that~” The earth pony put her hooves on Fluttershy’s head, pulling her close and holding her there. 

Wordlessly, Shy obeyed, licking a little faster, and digging a little deeper. Her tiny pink tongue dug into the farm pony’s pussy, tracing the fleshy walls. She let out tiny moans of pleasure, muffled inside the farm pony’s warmth. It took little time to clean off all the errant piss - her objective soon changed. She dug around near the roof of Applejack’s insides, soon letting her wet little limb glide across her clit.

Immediately, Apple let out a mix between a moan and a gasp, shivers of pleasure running down her spine, her legs shaking. “K-keep going, sugar, j-just like that~” She rubbed her sub’s head, nice and slow; Fluttershy could feel the way her hooves shook. So cute~! She picked up the pace, back and forth, over and over, nuzzling her snout a little deeper and stretching her tongue to dig as far as she could. Soon enough, she was full-on eating her out, Applejack gripping Flutter’s mane tight as her body vibrated in horniness, biting her lip hard. “O-oh, sugar, oh, sugar! Ah~!” She moaned, holding Fluttershy firm as she threw her head back, squirting femcum from her pussy like a firehose. Flutters let herself be covered in the spray of milky white, going all across her head, so warm and sticky! She just loved being drenched in Applejack’s fluids - it felt so good, no matter what it was~!

“O-oh my,” Apples said, letting go of Fluttershy, who pulled her head out and smiled up at her. Her grin was smug, victorious even. “Well, Flutters, I wasn’t expecting to say it, but you sure know how to pleasure a pony~” She stood up, ripping a leaf off a nearby plant and rubbing the residue off her own fur. 

“I’ve never tried to do it with another mare before… but it just felt right~” She giggled. “I can do a lot more with my body than you think~”

“At this point, I don’t doubt it.” She smiled warmly. She wished she had a camera with her - Fluttershy’s bashful face, drenched in urine and cum, was certainly an adorable sight to behold. “And I’d certainly love to learn more~ But I think I’d probably better get back to the farm.” She took off her hat and put it on Fluttershy’s head. It was just a tad too big for her, partially covering her eyes, the rim’s shadow covering her whole face - she tilted it up and looked to Applejack in confusion. “Use that to wipe your face off. Don’t want ya walkin’ around Ponyville lookin’ like that.”

“Are you sure? I don’t know if I’ll be able to wash all this off the hat if I use it like that.”

“Don’t worry about that, honeysuckle - I have a ton of ‘em back home. You can keep that one.”

Fluttershy held it with her hooves; she gave it a little sniff. It smelled like sweat, dirt, and apples - just like Applejack. She loved it. “A-alright, I will.” She chose not to use it like a rag - she’d just fly home. She wanted to keep it like it was. 

“APPLEJACK? ARE YOU OUT THERE!?” The thick-accented voice of Granny Smith echoed through the forest.

“Uh oh. Sounds like I need to get back.” She quickly pulled her lasso off and gave Fluttershy a peck on the cheek. “Your wings workin’ alright?”

Fluttershy flapped; no issues. “They’re fine. Have a good day at work, Applejack - I’ll see you tonight, after sundown~” 

“See you tonight, sugar~” The two exchanged one last little muzzle nuzzle, and they went their separate ways. Though, Fluttershy didn’t make it far before she just had to stop and jill off - her heat was at new levels! She’d barely managed to hold it together back there. She left a nice white coating on a nearby bush before flying back to her cottage.

Chapter 3.5: Summer Love

	“Hm, hm, hm~” Rarity perused an assortment of silks and fabrics, carefully considering each one. Today, one of her most important customers was visiting her - a dear friend, who deserved the absolute top-of-the-line in fashion.

	Applejack sat awkwardly in the middle of the room, her eyes anxiously following the fashionista as she ran to and fro. She was indecisive, but Apple knew it was because she cared - she gave her all, even when it was something as simple as a single accessory.

	“Alright, I have some ideas!” The tailor pony approached the farmer with a selection of scarves all floating in the air, arched like a rainbow above her head. They were all warmer colors, yellows, oranges, and reds, along with a single black design. “I think these would all look simply marvelous on you, but do you see any that catch your eye?”

	“Hmm…” Applejack didn’t know the last thing about fashion. All she’d come for was to get some accessory for her date with Fluttershy - she rarely wore more than just her hat, but she wanted to impress her. Rarity had suggested a scarf, and she’d agreed. “How about… this one?” She pointed to the middle - a simple flannel pattern, red and black.

	“Ah, a classic pattern! Not one that has much of a place in my store, generally, but for someone of your more natural beauty, it may be just the perfect thing.” The other scarves all flung themselves onto a nearby work desk as the chosen one floated in front of Applejack’s neck. “I think this will do wonderfully~” She stepped closer, grabbing the apparel in her hooves and tying it around Applejack’s neck, adjusting and ruffling it in just the right way. It was in a triangular shape on her front side, worn like a neckerchief.

	“How do I look?” Apple’s cheeks reddened slightly. 

	“Adorable, darling - I love it! It’s just what you needed to really pull your rugged look together!” A mirror floated in front of the earth pony; she tilted her chin up to get a better view. It really did look nice! She was sure that Fluttershy would love it.

	“Thank you, Rarity - this looks amazin’! How much do I owe ya?”

	“Oh, nothing at all, dear - I made that scarf with you in mind! It was simply a piece from an earlier outfit I’d made for you to model, though I ended up having to scrap that concept. I always keep the pieces though - you never know when somepony might need them for something such as…” She tilted her head down and smiled mischievously. “...a date~?”

	The earth pony blushed, eyes widening in surprise. “H-how’d you know that?”

	“My dear Applejack, I think we’re all well aware. The walls at Twilight’s castle are a little more thin than you may think.” She winked to the farm pony. “And, well, you two did spend an entire hour in the bathroom during our meeting - it isn’t hard to imagine what was going on in there.”

	“A-an hour!? I thought it’d been 30 minutes!”

	“And that would still be long enough for us to figure out what was happening~” She chuckled; seeing Applejack getting flustered was a rare and glorious sight. “Just make sure you take the scarf off before you get into it again - wouldn’t want it getting dirty~”

	“R-rarity!” The earth pony covered her face with her hooves; she burned with embarrassment. Rarity laughed even harder.

	“Oh, this is just precious!” She leaped toward Applejack and enveloped her in a hug, wrapping her hooves tight around her neck, rubbing their fur together. The farmer’s particular scent, a mix of hard work and apples, was always so comforting - she couldn’t help but give it a whiff anytime they embraced. “Don’t worry, honey, you know fully well that none of us mind it~ Have fun tonight~”

	“Well… actually…” Applejack returned the hug, and whispered in her ear. “I noticed you had some… um, other types of apparel in the back. You don’t think I could ask you a few things as a friend, d-do you?”

	Rarity’s ears perked up. “Oh, Applejack, I had no idea you were that kind of pony~ What led to this sudden interest~?”

	“W-well… i-it’s a bit embarrassing to say, but Fluttershy’s the one who really got me to consider it. Early today, I, um, might’ve lassoed her on accident, though it turns out, she kinda liked being… erm, restricted.” She gulped - it was so difficult to say this all out loud. “And, well… I liked it, too.”

	Rarity’s face turned as red as a strawberry. Her jaw hit the floor. Fluttershy… lassoed… restricted… oh boy. “O-oh my…” She cleared her throat. “If you were anyone else, I think I’d be asking you to leave right now, but because I love you dearly… come up to my bedroom.”

	“Oh, Rarity, I-I don’t think I’m up for anything like that - Fluttershy and I are open, I think, but I still need to talk to her about that and figure out exactly how it works-”

	“Get your head out of the gutter, Applejack, I’m not trying to have my way with you tonight!” She chuckled; really, it wasn’t her intention at all… though, on another night, it certainly could’ve been. “I just wanted to show you some things. I’m sure you know how to use a rope… but there are certain ways to do it while keeping your partner comfortable and safe. I also happen to have some supplies for this sort of thing that’ll be much more cozy than what you might find on your farm.” She finally separated from Applejack and beckoned her upstairs.

	Applejack followed close behind. It wasn’t too much of a surprise to hear Rarity had an interest in this type of thing - Apple had always pegged her as the type.

	The unicorn soon stepped into her bedroom and opened her closet, pulling out a chest of toys meant for the bedroom. Applejack’s mouth hung open as she watched her rummage through it - she could only name about a quarter of the container’s contents.

“Surprised~?” Rarity chuckled. “You know, it’s always the higher-class mares and stallions who want to get a little more frisky in bed than usual.” She considered saying something to Applejack along the lines of, “Though, I’d happily choose you to join me over them any night,” though she thought better of it. She’d wait till she had a little more information on the status of the Apple-Shy relationship. “Ah, here it is!” She held up a spool of black rope, soft and comfortable, much more so than normal rope. And more fashionable. “Alright, since we don’t have much time, I’m just going to teach you a few of the very basics.” She grabbed the end of the rope with her teeth and pulled it out, the lowering her eyebrows. “On your knees, Applejack~”

—------------------

“Well, I think that’ll be all you need, in the end!” Rarity spoke as the two rushed down the stairs - Applejack was running out of time. “You can borrow that rope - I promise it’s clean, I always make sure to sanitize everything after use!”

“Thank you for this, Rarity - I really appreciate it. If this goes well, would you show me a little more next time?”

“Oh, of course, dear~ But take it slow for now. Remember to use the safe word system I taught you, and don’t let Fluttershy tell you she’s ok if she really isn’t. You know how she is - you need to make sure she’ll tell you if she’s uncomfortable, physically or mentally.”

	“Right, absolutely - I’ll make sure we’re as safe as could be. I would never want to show her a bad time.” She lifted her hat and placed the rope underneath - no need to show her cards right off the bat. “And, um, Rarity?”

	“Hm? What is it, sweetie?”

	Rarity’s eyes went wide as Applejack placed a sudden kiss on her lips. A simple peck, but it was enough to make her cheeks heat up, more than most stallions could manage. “Thank you again. I’ll talk to Fluttershy about the whole open-relationship deal… and maybe, next time, you can show me how to do things a little more… intimately, if you know what I mean~”

	“Oh, A-applejack!” Rarity had gone from completely calm and put together to entirely flustered. “My, I won’t be able to sleep a wink tonight after that! Go, don’t make Fluttershy wait, and stop getting me so excited - save it for when we have some real time together~!”

	Finally, it was Applejack’s turn to chuckle. “Whatever you say, sugar. See you soon!” She waved goodbye and quickly trotted out the door, right towards Fluttershy’s cottage. The spool of rope thumped against her head, her heart beating in rhythm with her gallop, the scarf around her neck waving in the cool evening wind. It may have been a chilly night, but she was as warm as could be. 

	And soon enough, she was going to be very hot. 

Chapter 3.55: A Home For Flowers

	Applejack carefully adjusted her familiar cowgirl hat and her new flannel, checker-board scarf as she stood in front of Fluttershy’s house. This was basically the equivalent of their first real date - their previous “romantic” encounters had been unplanned and spontaneous. This time, things were really getting official.

	After a small inner pep talk, she lifted a hoof and knocked on the door. 

—--------

	Fluttershy watched from her bedroom as Applejack made her way to the cottage. She’d been looking out that window ever since she’d finished cleaning up from her earlier encounter, despite the sun still being high in the sky at that point - her excitement was uncontainable. Angel was getting very tired of listening to her rambling on about how happy she was. 

	Discord was out of the house, as per her request - he had no issue giving his love some space when she needed it, no matter the reason. He was fully aware of her relationship with Applejack, of course - the two had talked it out the night she returned from the meeting - and all he really had to say in response was that he was surprised Applejack was the first one. Thinking about it more, Fluttershy supposed that was a bit of a surprise to her, too, though a pleasant one, to be sure. 

	She gasped joyfully once she saw her date finally approaching. Applejack looked just as she always did, besides the addition of a scarf - she couldn’t get a great look from that angle, especially with her hat in the way, but Fluttershy was sure she was going to love it. She giggled to herself as she watched the mare adjust every little thing, hesitating before knocking - it was unexpected for Applejack to be as nervous as she was.

	It took her a moment to remember that knock meant she was supposed to answer the door. 

	“Oh, coming!” She called, quickly dashing down the stairs and heading for the door, trying to act as though she hadn’t been watching. She turned the knob and opened it up, greeting her guest with her sweet, warm smile. It was rare for her to wear much of anything, but today, she’d opted to try on a simple, creamy-white sweater, knit and braided. It matched her personality well, cute and fluffy, though not as much as her actual fur. Her hindquarters went uncovered, freely shown to the world.

	“Hi, Fluttershy.” Applejack greeted her, smiling, red blush highlighting their cheeks.

	“Hi, Applejack,” Fluttershy responded, matching the bashful energy with her own pink touch. “I love your scarf - it looks great on you!”

	“Thank you, sugar - Rarity recommended it herself. I definitely like the pattern. Figured it would be nice to, uh, ‘dress up’ a bit for the occasion.”

	“I had the same thought! What do you think?”

	“I love it - it looks adorable~”

	She giggled. The compliment tasted like milk chocolate. “Thank you~ Why don’t you come inside? I’ll make us a little tea.”

	“Sure, darlin’, sounds fantastic.” 

—---------------

	The two sat across from each other at the tea table, chatting away, their small, fancy cups both empty, except for the slightest bit of lukewarm leftover liquid. Their conversation had passed by in a flash - it was so easy to get lost in each other’s words. 

	“So, being polyamorous just means you can date other people?”

	“Well, there’s a lot of ways a non-monogamous relationship can work. For us, we’ll have what’s called a ‘V’ relationship - I’m dating both you and Discord, but you and Discord aren’t romantically involved at all, and you don’t have to be. It’s also up to you if you want to date any other ponies yourself - we just need to talk about it if anything happens so we both know what’s going on. And, if we both want to date some pony, we can make a ‘throuple’ with them, which is like a love triangle, in a way, except we all just share the love between ourselves. Same thing goes with more sexual relationships - you’re free to explore your sexuality however you like, as am I, but we need to be open with each other about it and be willing to talk about it. Of course, if any of this doesn’t sound like something you’d be ok with, then we can always reconsider - even if you and I can’t go together romantically, we’ll still always be best friends.” She poured herself another glass of tea, carefully holding the handle between her hooves. It was hardly hot anymore, but she was thirsty.

	Applejack nodded along; she was surprised at how much sense this was all making. “I get what you’re saying, and I’m definitely in for it - I love you a lot, Fluttershy, and I like the idea of keeping things open.” Conversations like this were always intimidating to her, but being honest and open with your partner about the affairs of your heart is always the right thing to do, as long as you keep their emotions in mind. That’s what Applejack had always believed, anyway. “So, if I were to want to date another pony…”

	“You’re free to do so. Just let me know before you make anything official so we don’t have any misunderstandings between us - it’s all about communication. You know that better than anypony else.” 

	“Indeed, I do. Honestly, I… might already have somepony else in mind, though I’m not sure if that’s going to be a romantic thing or just a casual sexual one - still gotta talk it over with her.”

	“Oooo~” Fluttershy leaned forward. “And who would this be~?”

	“Well… it’s Rarity. See, when I went to get my scarf from her… well, things got a little flirty between us. I told her to hold off until I’d talked to you about it, but I think she’s got something for me, and I think I have it back.” She blushed like a schoolgirl admitting she has a crush, rubbing her front hooves together. 

	“Ooo, how fun~ That’s great, Applejack, and I hope you do decide to take it further. I appreciate that you waited to talk to me about this, but you have my blessing to be as open as you wish.”

	“Great! I’m happy I could get a grasp on things here! This is all soundin’ very fun to me already.” She chuckled. “Well, then, now that I’ve revealed somepony I’ve got my eyes on, don’t you think it’s fair that you return the favor~? I’ve seen the way you look at some of the others in our little group~” Applejack held the teacup in her hooves, spinning it around mindlessly as she listened.

	“Oh, um…” She giggled, eyes bashfully darting back and forth. “Well, honestly… um, all of them?”

	The teacup froze, as did Applejack. Her mouth hung open for a moment. “A-all of them?!” She put the cup down and paused to think. “Is that… is that a thing you can do?”

	“Well, why not?” Her blush got a bit darker. “We all go together so well, and honestly, I love everypony so much, for so many different reasons. I don’t know how they’d feel about it, but, well, if we could make it work…” She gently clinked the edge of her teacup against Applejack’s. “I think it would be… really nice. Oh, and I mean everypony loving each other, not just me! It’s ok if you don’t want that, of course, it’s more of a dream than any-”

	Applejack held a hoof to Fluttershy’s mouth, her grin returning to place. “I’ve never thought about it before… but I think I’d like that, too. A lot.” 

	“Oh, that’s great!” Her tail flittered, full of passionate excitement. “Well, we’ll have to bring it up to them sometime when we’re all together! I’ve honestly wanted to ask for a little bit now, but I was always scared of doing it alone. Though, with you by my side…” She held Applejack’s hoof between her own hooves. “I think I could do anything~”

	“Aww~” The two leaned over the table and shared a kiss, drinking love from each other’s lips like sweet wine. Both of them were careful to pull back before it turned into something more than a quick exchange. “I don’t think I could ever be happier than I am right now~ I love you so much, honey~”

	“I love you too, darlin’~ But, if you wanna talk about being even happier than you are now… I might have an idea on how to accomplish that, if you’re in the mood for it.”

	Fluttershy leaned over the table; her tail wagged faster. “I’ve been in the mood since the moment I saw you at the door~”

	“Only since then? I’ve been in the mood since I lassoed you this mornin’~ And speaking of that, I think I remember you saying you enjoyed it more than expected~”

	“Hehe, well, I did like it a little. I trust you a lot… and I do like thinking about what you’d do to me if you’d gotten more than just my wings.” Her face got a little hotter as she made that confession.

“Well then, why don’t we find out~?” She pulled her hat off with her hooves, revealing a spool of black rope. She grabbed it up and held it out to Fluttershy. “Rarity showed me a few things~” She stood up and walked over to the pegasus, suddenly putting her hooves on Flutter’s shoulders and getting their faces extra close. The yellow pony’s eyes widened, blush deepening, as she felt the warmth radiating off of her love. “Are you up to be a little helpless for me tonight, darlin’~?”

“Eep!” Her tail wagged fast enough to turn a wind turbine. “Y-yes!!”

“Good~” She grabbed the rope between her teeth. “Then why don’t we head up to your room~?”

“Oh, yes, please!!” Nervous excitement swirled inside of Fluttershy’s stomach, her heart beating faster and faster with every step she took. This was going to be amazing.
