"Even in death, Rarity's generosity shines brighter than the Sun. Her preparations as an organ donor saved many lives," said Sweetie Belle, standing in front of her beautiful sister's crystal coffin.

In the front row, Twilight Sparkle whispered to Pinkie Pie. "Thanks for an amazing job on short notice! I didn't realize you knew taxidermy."

"With all those organs missin', how'd you fill 'er up?" whispered Applejack. "Please say it ain't cake batter in there."

"Don't be silly," Pinkie whispered back, rolling her eyes. "I'll never tell. Trade secrets!"

Sweetie leaned down. As tears blanketed her cheeks, she pressed her face to her sister's chest. A soft 'pop' echoed, and confetti shot out of Rarity's nose and mouth.

Everypony gasped. An uncomfortable silence followed.

Slowly, Sweetie Belle lifted her head. She was still crying, but had a bright smile on her muzzle.

"Thank you, Pinkie. Rarity would have loved that."
