Applejack is known around Ponyville for being one of the most hard-working ponies in Equestria. Unfortunately, that sometimes means getting only a sparse couple hours of sleep at best or pulling all-nighters at worst. Her motto is, "Don't sleep until you succeed."
Rarity is a hard worker too. She works night and day on orders for clients and new designs, trying her best to make sure each and every detail is perfect. However, she knows that proper rest is essential to doing well in all aspects of life.
So when a pony who works until her body can't take it and a pony who works until she feels tired meet up with each other, it'll be a lesson for one...and it'll be a lesson she will never forget.
Inspiration taken from this Wild Kratts fanfic I read many years ago. Not intended to be Rarijack shipping, just friendship fluff.
