>In the living room, you carefully place brushes, hair ties, and small bag on the table.
>Humming a little tune, there's a knock at the door.
"Come in!" You shout looking over the assortment
>The door swings open as Rainbow Dash comes in, nervously looking around, she closes the door. Quickly trotting around, she begins to close the blinds.
"What are you doing?"
>"Nothing!" She freaks turning around and grinning nervously, "Just uhhh making sure these blinds are clean. Hehehe."
>Rolling your eyes, you pick up the brush first
"All right, you ready?" You ask taking your seat at the couch
>She nods meekly before walking over to you and sits on the couch "So what do I do?"
"Just bring your head over here."
>Doing so, you gently rub her snout as she rests her head on your lap.
>Making soft long strokes, you brush her mane from the top of her head, to the bottom of her neck.
>She giggles as her body shivers with the feeling of the bristles rubbing against the skin under her fur.
>"Ohhh...that feels good." She sighs as her body goes limb
>With a small chuckle, you keep a steady pace of brushing and rubbing the crown of her head.
>Her soft tangled rainbow mane makes crackling sounds as static electricity slowly builds with each motion.
>Reaching over and grabbing a hair tie, you grab a handful of her mane and tie it off in a ponytail like Applejack's. "What did you do?" She asks annoyed as she plays with her mane a bit
"I gave you a ponytail, like Applejack."
>"Why?"
"I don't know, I thought it would look cute." You shrug as she gets up and walks over to a small mirror
 
>Looking herself over, she turns around to face you "Look at me ya'll" She says in a mock Applejack voice, "I like apples, and kickin trees. Tsk, no, I don't like it."
"I don't know, it looks good on you."
>Reaching for the bag, you open it up and pull out a large salt lick
>Waving it at her, she walks over. Getting back on your lap, you hold the salt block close to her as she begins to lick it.
>As she does it, you stroke her mane and simply sit there with her.
>Done with the salt, she sighs deeply and rests herself.
"You done?" You ask as she gets up
>"Yeah, can't keep you all night. Thanks for this, I appreciate it."
"Anytime, this is fun."
>Stretching herself out, she hops off the bed and trots over to the door. "So, can we do this again next week?"
"Sure, I'll treat you to a bath and some hoof cleaning." You smile
>With a smile, she walks out the door. Outside, Rainbow happily skips along thinking about fun that was.
>Being a "pet" was not as degrading as she thought, it was actually pretty affectionate.
>"Hey there Rainbow," Applejack calls out to her, broken from her thoughts, she looks over at her, "Nice hair, ah flattered ya like it." She comments before trotting
>"What?" Rainbows asks while feeling her mane "Oh no, I left it on." She says tearing up, "Stupid Anon and his ideas." She says gritting her teeth
>Today was a bad hair day
