This story is a sequel to Party Blues

It's been 3 years since Appleade left the roost. Ponyville has never been so subdued. Both the parents, AJ and RD and the child, Appleade Dash, blame themselves for the argument.

But today is different. Today would have been the day little Appleade became a Mare.

It's time things changed, but will they?

(Sex tag, for light romance.)
