āAh dunno, sugarcube. You make it sound like a good idea, but Ah just dunno.ā Applejackās face was an impassive mask as she regarded Dashās suggestion.
āItās an awesome idea. All ponies need love, some ponies just need more than others.ā Dash hovered a few hooves in the air and pointed in the direction of Ponyville. āRemember how bummed out Rarity was about her love life until Twi and Trixie took her in?ā
Applejack nodded in agreement. Rarity had been an absolute wreck after her third visit to the Gala, countless dates in between, and no luck in sight.
Dash landed and lifted Applejackās chin with a hoof. āWe could totally do that for somepony. I remember how much it cheered you up when Pinkie was with us.ā
Applejack remembered. It had been three months since Granny Smith passed on and she was still depressed over it. Pinkie had come and stayed with them for a week. Just seven days of having meals with them, helping with chores, sleeping with them, just being another comforting presence.
By the end, Applejack was healed. She was still sad over her loss, but it no longer gnawed at her soul. And as quick as she had come when they needed her, Pinkie left again to lend her aid to other ponies in need.
Applejack nodded, a smile finally cracking her muzzle while the corners of her eyes glinted wet at the memories. āReckon youāre right, sugarcube.ā
āAwesome! Now, we have to figure out who. Any ideas?ā
Applejack answered instantly, the name coming to her lips before she even had time to think. āFluttershy.ā
Dashās eyes went wide and she stammered. āF-Flutters-shy?ā
Applejackās cheeks glowed a soft red, but she nodded with firm conviction.
Dash thought this over for several long minutes, taking to the air again in a lazy circle before landing again in front of Applejack. āWhy Fluttershy?ā There was no anger or incredulity behind the question, just curiosity.
āSheās our friend anā she aināt got a special somepony.ā Applejack said plainly. āTwiās had Trixie and theyāve both got Rares now; you anā me got each other, anā Pinkie... Well, Pinkieās got everypony that needs her. Reckon sheāll settle down when sheās ready.ā
Dash nodded, but said nothing.
āWe could probāly just help her find a special somepony ifān she aināt interested, but I reckon āShyās one oā them ponies that needs more love like ya said. And...ā Applejack blushed a deeper red and looked away.
āAnd what?ā Dash looked curiously at Applejackās reaction.
āItās selfish, ferget Ah said anythinā.ā
āOh come on, you gotta tell me!ā Dash whined.
Applejack winced, took a deep breath and said in a barely audible voice, clicking her forehooves together. āYou know how much Ah like wings...ā
Dash grinned and laughed, brushing her primaries in Applejackās face. āCome on, letās go find āShy, then.ā
