āRainbow Dash! You gonna stay in there all morning?ā Applejack called through the door.
āNot much longer! I'm on blue!ā
Applejack rolled her eyes, thanking Celestia that most mornings she was out of the house by the time Dash got up. It meant that she could usually ignore the surprising ritual Dash had been forced to reveal when she started spending the night at Sweet Apple Acres.
āYou still got your tail, too?ā
āYeah, but I can do that in the bedroom.ā
One of the things AJ loved about Dash was that neither of them really cared about looking messy. Or she thought she loved that about Dash. It turned out that what she loved was that Dash looked like she didn't care about looking messy, a process that took about as long as AJ's farm chores every morning.
āWhy don't ya' just tie it back? I bet even Rarity don't take this long.ā
āRarity doesn't have six colors to keep straight! Besides, Rarity is just trying to look pretty. That's a lot easier than looking awesome. I'm on purple now. It'll just be a sec.ā
By āa secā Applejack knew that she meant at least five minutes to carefully separate any stray blue hairs invading her purple streak, apply mousse, brush out the mousse so it wasn't stiff, use some cream from a jar to scrunch it so it looked just messy enough, then brush the blue and purple streak together so it looked like it flowed. All just to look like she rolled out of bed.
Applejack preferred the rolling out of bed approach for that, herself.
āYa' know you're just gonna mess it up again when ya' start flyin'.ā
āThat's the point, AJ. I have to make it look like I've been flying before I start flying. What if somepony saw me taking off, and my mane was all flat and boring?ā
āThey'd think you just woke up?ā
āThey would think I wasn't as awesome.ā
āThey'd be wrong.ā
āI'm not about to give anypony the chance to be wrong about my awesomeness. I'll never be a Wonderbolt that way.ā
āYou do know that your 'awesomeness' don't have a thing to do with how good you are at flyin', right?ā
āSure it does. I fly better when I'm awesome.ā
āThat don't make a lick of sense.ā
āDon't you have chores to do or something?ā
āYeah, I do. Plenty of 'em. But I gotta use the toilet and somepony's been in there for the past ten minutes.ā
āOh, sorry!ā Dash said, opening the door with her mane in its carefully crafted state of disarray. āAll yours!ā
Applejack smiled at her. āLooks good.ā
Dash beamed and tossed her head. āI know.ā

Hahaha! Surprising, but somehow I can see that!

You'd think in a house with four ponies they'd have more than one bathroom.
