>Anonymous once again >It's Winter in Ponyville >A fine sheet of snow covers the little town, turning the place into a cozy picture postcard landscape >You're working as an assistant to Ponyville's premiere seamstress, Rarity >The Winter months have made a strange shift in the world of Pony Fashion >...Or so you've heard >Whatever the case, Rarity's been packing on the pounds to model herself for a new Winter line for mares of "fuller figure" >You hear that some of her friends have objected to this, but she cares not >You admire her dedication to her craft... >...In fact, you've spent a couple of nights "admiring" her, especially her billowing belly and her soft, milky thighs >You do your best to keep your composure at work, though >You just know Rarity would find it "uncouth" to rub one out in the Boutique   >One particularly chilly day >You've finished sorting out fabrics, as well as setting out some of the latest "Frolicking Flurry" outfits >You peep into the workshop to let Rarity know >She's not there >You don't need a moment's thought to know where she is >She's upstairs, making a few "adjustments" >Apprehensively, you head up the stairs >Sure enough, you hear the sounds of ladylike munching, interspersed with hums and ahs >You find Rarity in a personal dressing room, where she's measuring her tummy in front of a full length mirror >A small box from Sugarcube Corner rests on a nearby end-table >Miss Rarity? >"EEK!" >She almost pops out of her skin, but her weight instead makes her flop to the floor >"Anonymous! Weren't you ever told to knock?!" >Sorry, you tell her >She gets up, dusting herself off and trying to make herself look dignified >"Well...I suppose if you're here, you're finished with stocking and the displays?" >You nod, trying your best to suppress your boner >"Ah, good. I'm already looking forward to the launch of my new Winter designs!" >She takes her place at the mirror again, popping a bonbon in her mouth and wrapping the measuring tape round her belly again >You watch, unable to tear your eyes away from her ministrations >"Hmm...Hearth's Warming will be here soon...bringing with it all the celebrations and treats...Pinkie will probably be unveiling her latest confection at Sugarcube Corner... >"...And there will be all the mares letting go of their inhibitions...Sporting ample bellies and wider flanks...My outfits must compliment the holidays...But..." >She suddenly noticed you haven't left, her face snapping back to you >"Still here? Did you have something else to say?" >Oh boy... >You stammer out that perhaps some outfits could accentuate their weight in different ways, rather than concealing it >"Oh? Really?" >She looks like she's about to tell you off, but then stops herself   >"Then again...there are plenty of stallions here with...rubenesque tastes...Perhaps..." >She grabs a sketchpad from the floor in her magic, scribbling down some notes and potential designs >"Yes...yes...YES! This could work perfectly! With the right warm fabrics and colors, and tasteful designs.." >"Oh, thank you, Anonymous! This is just what the Frolicking Flurry line needs!" >Rarity leaps up and hugs you, and you feel a cold sweat as her soft, marshmallow belly smooshes against your crotch >"Well! I think that accounts for everything for the day, don't you?" >You nod, too dumbfounded for words >After an awkward pause, you suggest that you take an early leave >"Hmm...I suppose you've earned it, but before you leave, could you do me one more favor?" >Sure, you answer, what sort? >"Well, I've been stressed lately, as I'm worried on whether all this.." >She pauses to slap her belly >"...Would pay off." >You gulp nervously >"So, before you leave..." >She flops onto a nearby couch, spreading her legs and pushing out her tummy >"...Would you be a dear and rub my tummy?   >Oh shit >You almost collapse in embarrassment, yet you stay composed >"Well, Anonymous?" >You stammer out a response vaguely translating to "Okay" >You gently place your hands on Rarity's belly, tracing circles with your palm >Funnily enough, it doesn't feel like marshmallow. Rather, a squishy hill covered in a light fluff >Even when she's twenty pounds overweight, she's still fabulous >"Mmm...You ca-caaaan rub haarder than that..." >You resist overwhelming urge to drop your pants and concentrate on her belly >...Her incredible, soft, warm, sensuous belly >Your hands explore the expanse of Rarity's tummy, pressing down at regular intervals, relishing how it quivers and squishes under your palm >"Yes~...That's the ticket~..." >As you rub, Rarity floats over another treat from the box >But instead of popping it in her mouth, she offers it to you >"Keep it up...You...I...Ohhh!" >A grin spreads across your face as you lean in, hunching over the plump pony >The two of you are so into the bellyrub that neither of you notice a door slamming downstairs >"Oh...Anonymous, daaaarling..." >"Rarity?!" >Both of you yelp, your hands flying off Rarity and into your pocket >There was Sweetie Belle, standing mouth agape in the doorway >"Oh, Sweetie Belle...I forgot you were here for your new Winter apparel! Anonymous, be a dear and fetch them, please?" >Trying your best not to look awkward, you retrieve Sweetie's new outfit (a warm cap plus a scarf and boots) from a nearby shelf >"There you are, Sweetie! Now run along! We still have much to do!" >"Um...okay. Thanks, Sis." >You wave goodbye as Sweetie trots out >Suddenly, Rarity tugs at your collar in her magic >"This never happened. If you tell anypony else, you're as good as fired." >Sighing, you agree >"Good! Now..." >She spreads her legs again, revealing her wonderful belly again >"...Where were we?"
