Rainbow and Twilight flew to Applejack Acres... errr, Sweet Apple Acres. Imagine though, acres of lush rolling hills just covered with billions of applejack cereal pieces. It would be funny for about five minutes, and then just get frustrating. Kind of like the story writing process for me.

The two flipper flapper ponies touched down outside a barn where AJ was currently slaughtering pigs to make bacon. "Well howdy do, girls! Don't mind the oink offal on my accouterments, Ah'm just fixin' up some right darn fine vitals." Rainbow winced. all the blood draining out of the dead animals, they shrieks of the dying animals, and the terrified wimpers of the soon-to-be-slaughtered animals brought back unpleasant PTSD flashbacks from her rainbow factory days. Twilight wasn't fazed though, for the dark arts she studied regularly called for orphan sacrifices and the likes, so this felt like just another day at the lab. On that note, has anypony seen Scootaloo?

Hoping to get their minds off of their Past Sins and present mistakes, Twilight decided to reroute the conversation like a trolley rerouted in a trolly problem meme. "So, Applejack, looks like you got another new hat. Looks nice, and I daresay I can still smell that fresh leather smell. Wait, is that made of real leather?!"

Applejack Apple smiled, the tiniest bit maliciously. "Yep, sure as sugar, sugar cube, this here is bonafied cow leather, freshly tanned and formed."

"Lovely," Twilight continued. "So, uh, what possessed you to get a new hat? Wasn't your old one still in great shape?"

"Yeah," AJ replied, swinging her axe blade into the neck of the soon-to-be dead pig. Blood splattered. A little got on Twilight. She flicked it off with her wing.
