Twilight's been having weird, unfamiliar urges ever since she became an alicorn. Like an intense desire to grow flowers, or the fact she can't stop chewing on her wings when she's distracted. As it turns out, you can't just suddenly inherit the magic of all three pony tribes without getting the instincts to match, and instincts can be a powerful thing. Doubly so when you're not used to them, and especially when they're telling you that your best friend with the gorgeous wings would make the perfect partner to share a nest with.

Wait, what was that last part?

Originally this was supposed to be a birthday gift for Celysus, but I fell in love with the idea so it's gonna be a full fic now. You can't stop me.

The sex tag here is implicit, there is no actual sexual content that takes place here. This was cross-posted on AO3 as anonymous, but I've also decided to post it here too. Also, cover art is in the making currently.

A fluffy fic about Applejack and Rainbow Dash cuddling, peppered with boops, kisses, and nuzzles... And don't forget, dear old competitive love!

Everyone wants to be comforted. Everyone wants to have that sensation of security and warmth. The sensation of safety. Everyone from the frail and weak to the strong and brave. Everyone.

So why not Rainbow Dash? Why can she not have the want for comfort? The urge for hugging, the need for snuggles? Why can't she desire to be hugged and nuzzled? Why can't she snuggle up with her marefriend on a rather windy spring evening? Well, what if she does? No one's stopping her! No one but herself, that is.

So a few things:

One; this is technically in the same universe as my A Hard Day & The Butterfly’s Stitch. I didn't mark this as a sequel, cause I didn't feel like it needed to be. If you feel like going and reading the first part of this, go right ahead, but if you don't, then that's well and good.

Two; if you're looking for relationship conflicts, this is not the story for you. This will be mainly of Dash and an inner conflict she'll facing throughout the fic, and the relationship is pretty much in full swing.

Four; the adorable cover art was done by the amazing booruimporter! Share the love Folks!

When the weight of time - both past and future - comes to bear, Twilight writes one, final letter. Seeking closure, she may just find something more.

Pre-Read and edited by Rimmer.
Cover art edited by ModMCdl. Because for some reason they both still put up with me.

Applejack and Rainbow have been together for quite a while, and decide it's time to grow the family. And thanks to Twilight's Big Book of McGuffin Spells (patent pending), they are given that chance. And after months of trials and ordeals, they are finally reaching the end of a long road.
But when the day finally comes, Rainbow might not be able to hold herself together, and she's not even having the baby!

Rated T for child birth and suggested related 'activities'.
