Minuette hopped up on the bed and laid down, crossing her hooves over each other as she looked at Rarity. "Alright, serious Minuette so time for some serious talk. What is your opinion on having foals then Rarity?"
Rarity blinked and then frowned. "You tricked me."
"You're the one who brought up both subjects dearheart. I'm just being serious Minuette. And also, it is about time we talked about more than just having fun after all."
Rarity sighed and nodded. She was enjoying just having fun but Minuette was right, neither of them were getting any younger. Not that Minuette or Rarity was yet an old mare, but she supposed putting off such a discussion wouldn't really help them. Rarity climbed up next to Minuette and snuggled up against her marefriend. "Okay, how about you go first?"
Minuette grinned. "Oh? Shifting the buck are we? Very well. I would enjoy having a foal or two, though it's not a deal breaker for me with you." Minuette nuzzled into her marefriend's neck. "And you dearheart?"
"Wow, that was... Quick..."
"I've had this talk before dearheart. I told you I've had a few perspective mates over the years."
Rarity blushed brightly, Minuette was Rarity's first marefriend, and the first somepony special that she'd gotten to this point in the relationship with so she hadn't given the entire situation a whole lot of thought before. She bit her bottom lip before she realized there was something else that seemed slightly out of place in that first statement. "Wait, not a deal breaker with me?"
Minuette smiled. "Yes, I really enjoy you Rarity. I've had special somepony's that I enjoyed, but wouldn't be willing to forgo having foals for. You..." She nuzzled again into Rarity's neck. "You are more special than that." Rarity flushed crimson at the thought that Minuette would give up her intentions of having foals to continue dating, and possibly marry in the future.
"Th-That's very flattering Minuette. But I must admit I wasn't quite ready for this conversation." Minuette blinked then her ears flattened, scowling slightly.
"Well shoot, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought up the for you party if you didn't have your own ideas set, now I've colored your stance probably."
"Only if that stance was against having foals, which, you're right I can't be sure of, but I don't think it ever was. And," Rarity smiled at her marefriend. "That was about the best thing I've heard in the past few weeks. It was very touching." She leaned in kissing Minuette on the cheek, who grinned, well she had another surprise for Rarity, but that was for later tonight. "To be perfectly honest darling, I would probably lean towards having a few foals, yes."
Minuette grinned. "Well that's good, they are cute aren't they?"
"Oh they're endlessly frustrating."
Minuette raised an eyebrow at that. "That doesn't sound like you want foals dearheart..."
Rarity giggled gently. "Oh, don't get me wrong, I completely believe that they are endlessly frustrating. But I helped raise my little sister, I speak from experience when I say that's true, but also it is greatly rewarding. Seeing her grow up, the cute little things she does to try and help... Though not always successfully, the pure joy they get from your approval. Oh yes, now that I talk more, I do want foals Minuette." She grinned widely. "Though maybe I could convince you to have more than two then? I mean... If you have so much free time because of your duties you could raise more foals while I worked... It'd help you not be bored while I'm working too!"
Minuette burst into a small fit of giggles, grinning at Rarity. "Oh, you clever mare!" Minuette reached up and booped Rarity on the muzzle. "You want more responsibility but then you dump it all on me so you can make pretty dresses! That is what I call being irresponsible!"
Rarity smiled back at Minuette. "Well if all you do is watch me while I sow and throw my yarn around you could be doing something productive."
"It's not my fault your friend the princess doesn't have me do anything!"
"She's your friend too dear."
"Well yeah but that doesn't help my argument here, obviously!"
Rarity giggled and got up, opening her wardrobe dramatically. "Now that we have gotten that talk out of the way we must decide what to wear darling!"
"I wasn't planning on wearing anything."
"Oh but you simply must darling! It's an important day for Coco and Applejack, we simply must look our best for them, darling!"
Minuette grinned, well if Rarity was going to make her dress up she was going to make Rarity regret her choice of words at the very least. "Oh! I get it! I agree completely!" Rarity smiled as Minuette got off the bed and walked over, but her smile faded slightly and she blushed as Minuette continued. "If we have any hopes of getting them interested in us we will have to dress up extra fancily, with how conservative Applejack is we'll have to try extra hard!"
Minuette thought that Rarity was the most fetching tint of red as she responded. "Y-You know I didn't mean that Minuette!"
"Oh, I know. But with how red you are I'm putting my bits on you've thought about it." Rarity shook her head but continued to blush. "Hm... About the cute timid Coco...? Or maybe your longtime friend, the strong and reliable Applejack...? Or maybe even both...?"
"Th-That's enough teasing Minuette!"
Minuette grinned, feeling like she hit a nerve there. "Ooooh, they are both quite cute aren't they." She leaned in and whispered into Rarity's ear. "Don't worry, I'll keep your dirty little secret."
Rarity whirled away, huffing loudly, and managing to sound completely indignant. "I don't know what you're talking about Minuette!"
"Uhuh, why are you blushing so much then?"
"The mere thought is so inappropriate!"
"Inappropriate but tantalizing."
"St-Stop that Minuette!"
Minuette giggled faintly. "Alright, alright, I'll let up. Now, what do you want to wear?" Rarity eyed her suspiciously for a moment before trotting back over to the wardrobe with a small huff and started to plan out their outfits.
