Applejack winced when Rarity dropped her hoof of cards onto the table.  “Full house!” she announced with an uproarious bubbly giggle.

Applejack frowned and blushed.  “Well.  I—consarnit.”

She dropped her cards face down on the table and frowned.  “Rarity, I don’t know if I want to play anymore.  This is like the time you made us go to the gala like.. like that, I ain’t never been more embarrassed in my life.”

Rainbow Dash laughed derisively, and said “Oh, now she wants to back out, but I don’t remember her complaining back when she was winning eh?”  She picked up her cigar, and leaned back in her chair, taking a self satisfied puffing drag.

Applejack frowned.  “Ah ain’t no poor sport.  Y’all take that back!”

Fluttershy meeped and hid behind her cards.

Rainbow Dash waved a hoof dismissively.  “Prove me wrong then.  Do it.”

Applejack felt the distinctive tingle of her cheeks flushing.  “Y’all just want to see me all indecent.”

Twilight Sparkle smirked, “She does have a point.”

“Guilty as charged!” Dash cackled.

Rarity leaned in to watch Applejack, bouncing and clapping gleefully.  “Come on, it’s not a very big one.”

Applejack’s blush only got hotter with that.  “Pinkie Pie, back me up here.”

“Nuh uh sillypants.  You wanted to play, now you gotta do it!  I already did it three times!”

“‘Sillypants?’  Y’all have a way with words.”

The girls broke out laughing, and Applejack couldn’t help but feel that they were all staring rather intently at her.  “Y’all—Y’all aren’t allowed to like it!  That’d just be weird.”

Twilight leaned back and took a swig of her whiskey with a wild grin.  “No promises baby.  Let’s see it.”

Applejack blushed hotly, and pulled a t-shirt from the box, and slipped it on slowly, despite being leered at by all the girls at the table.  “Woo!  Put it on!” Rarity screamed.

Applejack’s cheeks burned now, and she hid her face.  It’s already lecherous enough to walk around town wearing a hat, but to wear a full set of socks, jeans, and a t-shirt?

“How positively scandalous!  You know if you lose another hoof, you’re going to have to wear a bridle don’t you?”

Applejack growled.  “Ah don’t wanna play no more!  This game ain’t right, and Rainbow Dash is likin’ it a little too much!”

Rainbow Dash only grinned in her defense.

Applejack tugged her socks off in a huff, and kept going until she was good and naked again like a proper pony.  “Y’all are goin’ tah Tartarus.”

She stormed off despite the jeering behind her.
