Twilight had just taken her leave from Carousel Boutique, and Rarity had oh-so-many ideas running through her mind. She had just a handful of days to come up with concepts for Princess Celestia of all ponies! Pulling out a binder with a sun and moon adjoined side by side from a seemingly random location, she began to flip through the pages.
Images years old first greeted her eyes, the beginning ones crudely sketched with an unsteady quill. As the pages progressed however the concepts became more refined, some color added, the lines drawn with confidence. Each concept was marked with either an L or C as well as the date of the drawing. They all represented her one goal that she had decided upon when first entering the fashion world, and now it was all finally coming to be.
"Tsk, none of these shall do! This one is already outdated, that was seen at last year's Gala. Hmmm... Let's see here... Oh, IDEA!" Rarity was flipping through the most recent pages, unhappy with what she saw before her eyes. Settling on a blank page about the time she was struck with inspiration, she picked up a quill and began going at the empty space furiously. Thin quill strokes in bold fashion slowly began to form the basic outline of an alicorn.
She went after the drawing in a mad manner, multiple inkwells of varying colors creating a parade about her as she pulled a drop from here and a drop from there. In time, an image that was once an idea in thought only began to translate itself onto the page. She failed to notice the knock at the door, as well as when the country earth pony made herself known by sticking her head around the corner of the door and peering in upon her working.
Applejack looked on in amazement at Rarity's display of magic. Although she typically didn't care too much for the stuff, as her philosophy was a pure 'hooves on' approach, she had to admit that when the unicorn got into her work, it was a sight to behold. She quietly watched her marefriend furiously scribble in a book of some kind as the multitude of objects in the air began to slowly dwindle in numbers. The last object to leave was a single quill, which with a flourish added something to the page before making itself scarce.
"Voila! It is done, and oh my!" Rarity exclaimed, punctuating her statement with an over the top bow to no one in particular. She was broken from the moment as laughter punctuated by clapping resounded throughout the room. Looking up, the startled unicorn saw Applejack standing in the doorway.
"Oh, darling, you scared me! How long have you been standing there?" Rarity inquired as she fixed her gaze upon the earth pony, curiosity and a hint of embarrassment making itself known in her cheeks.
"Long enough I suppose. You were goin' at it like a mad mare Rare. Must've been somethin' special you were makin’." Applejack answered without a hint of shame, relishing in the unicorn's blush.
"Well, it truly is the most wondrous thing darling! Twilight stopped by earlier, and brought a letter with her, from Princess Celestia of all ponies!"
"Oh, really now? Well, spill the beans girl, don't make me try 'n guess!"
"I'll be leaving for Canterlot Friday and accompanying Twilight to the city, where I'll be staying in the palace! I'm to make our princess a dress, and maybe even Princess Luna one as well! And it is for the Gala no less!" Rarity was as close to bouncing as the prissy mare would ever come, joy running rampant in her tone.
Levitating the book towards the country mare, Rarity pointed out her completed design. "Can you imagine it? Princess Celestia wearing my work of art, and every eye at the Gala pausing to fix their gaze upon my creation. Everypony is going to want the same!"
"Uh, Rare, you know I don't have the first clue 'bout your fashion stuff. But, I'm sure whatever you come up with she'll like. I doubt she'd of asked you otherwise." As the words left her mouth she began to haltingly step backwards as the unicorn fixed her with the most leveled gaze imaginable. There was not a single hint of emotion to be found within the irises of her aquamarine eyes as she set them upon Applejack..
"Darling! You are indeed correct, however, one must make as many preparations for such an event as possible! I would hate to embarrass myself in front of our esteemed princess by not having my top quality concepts ready for her!" She surprised the earth pony by embracing her in a hug with both of her front hooves and planting a small kiss on Applejack's cheek.
"Although I am most curious as to what it would take to get you to learn about fashion dear. You would look absolutely ravishing were you to dedicate just one day to learning about my world. I dare say you could give Fluttershy a run for her bits were you to let down your hair and allow yourself some proper pampering for once." Rarity took the smallest step back as she appraisingly looked over Applejack as she circled her love. "No doubt about it at all."
"Now Rare, we've had this talk before you stubborn mare! I'll give you one of my days when you come and give me one of yours at the farm first! Then, and only then, will I let you 'pamper me up'." Applejack chuckled in preparation for the standard response that followed her request, only to pause as she didn't hear any words coming from the unicorn.
"Hmmm... You know dear, the more you bring that up, the more I think it might be worth just one day of soiling my hooves at your farm. It would be most dreadful and I would require such a long shower after, yet I think it might just be worth it." 'I'd do almost anything at this point to get her under my hooves for a whole day' Rarity thought to herself, deeply contemplating what sacrifices she would make to her dignity to capture her love in her own game.
"I know you don't wan— Wait, what?" Applejack began, having expected the stereotypical reaction from the fashionista, yet stopped mid sentence as her brain processed exactly what had been said. A look of utter shock came over her face as she was left momentarily speechless before she found her words again, amazement plastered over her face as she continued. "You would do that, for me Rare? I'm speechless, love."
"Ya know..." She started back up after gathering her thoughts. "I'm done at the farm for today, got the rest of the evening free. What say we... Celebrate some? We can figure out the details of your day at the farm later sugar, right now I just want to give you my congratulations..." She trailed off seductively, blocking the doorway back into the main foyer of the boutique, leaving the bedroom door as the only possible avenue of 'escape' as she eyed Rarity up and down.
"Darling! That actually sounds to be a to be a most... Wonderful plan. Give me a moment to— eep!" The fashionista replied, interrupted mid thought as the stronger mare pushed against her, forcing her backwards into the bedroom ever so slowly. Lust began to ever so slowly cloud both the mares eyes, as, with a single kick, Applejack shut the bedroom door, the sound echoing throughout the building.

And here gents and ladies is where the idea for the intermission(s) came from. just in case I were to neglect some of the other cast, this should help further some insight into their lives and relationships as the story progresses.
Enjoy!
not bad and waiting for the next chapter.
till next chapter, good sir.
And that is how you start an author's note.
dont worry about the tag dude^^ I actually enjoy these type of fics more than 95% of the actal clopfics out there^^ It leaves alot more to the readers imagination and I love those kind of stories^^ Gotta say though, you sure got the 'hungry AJ' thing down pretty well^^ I doubt that Rarity will forget this night anytime soon^^
Gave up on writing clop spacecowboy?

Thanks, and it should be coming after I get another chapter for Dreams Are A Gateway. Actually on a roll with the next chap of that story, think I just hammered out 500 words in 30 minutes. Yay for winging it!
1905175
I know, right? Need more Author's Notes where it goes 'And then they fucked!'
1905196
Its still a change that I needed to address though, as eventually there will be some M scenes to accompany the story (This actually being one of them when I do start). Lol, and glad that I portrayed that well, I wasn't sure if I was rushing too much into it or not, plus this will set up some stuff in the future, at least with what I've got planned now.
And reader's imaginations are going to get used a lot with this story, I've left a lot of things open specifically so they can think on what might've occurred.

Nope, simply going to release an addendum for Becoming One With The Night when I do get around to writing sex. Slightly easier to simply separate it from the main story and keep folks happy that way, plus those who want the sex will still get it, just have to open another doc. And I will be going back and adding links here once I do get the scenes written and up, with a lovely NSFW label on them.
Still, expect more stretching of the limits of teen with the sexual humor, much like the 'winking' of the last chapter.
1905742 No you didnt rush it^^ At least I dont see it as rushed^^ More like AJ went to her because she really... longed her her marefriend and wanted to make sure to let Rarity feel just how much she did^^
1907919
It's one of those things where I don't have much experience to really pull from asides what I have read myself, and it felt mostly natural, so I went with it. Seems to have played out rather well at least.
1908138 Dont worry about it^^ Everyone started of small once, its only natural that you cant write certain things as well as other from the beginning. I personally have alot of trouble with fighting scenes^^ But trust me, just take your time, do one step at a time and you'll get better with them little by little^^ That said, I'm really looking forward to the next 'episode' of this fic^^
I have been wondering.... what does ~{B}~{O}~{W}~{T}~{N}~ mean?
Edit:

Welp, ready to facepalm?
Becoming One With The Night
Then fancied up some.
You have to name the sex stories Becuming One With The Night

God, my sides hurt right now.
that's fucking perfect!
This was a perfect hit my friend. Such a nice plot with some nice focusing at the memories and the emotionss.
Is AJ Raritys marefriend because i saw this
She quietly watched her marefield
What's a marefield?
I'm okay with this.
That was a nice little intermission.
Only one thing got to me. It's just a personal preference thing, and not to really be taken into consideration.
I don't know why, but that added "love" always throws me off in stories. I know why it's there, and I can understand the appeal for it, but I just always feel like it's unnatural wording. Maybe it's just because I don't really see "love" as an applicable title to call someone (even though it actually is). I don't know, I'm done rambling...
I'll read and comment on the alternate "sex" chapter later tonight. As much as I want to do it now, I don't believe my college's library is the best place for reading such things (that's not to mean that I haven't done it in the past though).
1908316 1908319
I wondered that, too, and then I realized what it stood for in this chapter's Author's Notes. I 'ed anyway.

Rarity on the farm, that'd be a sight to see.
I have to ask does Sweetie Belle still live there? If so, I feel sorry for her
