Re: Sweet Apple Acres
"Eeeyup." Applejack laughed lightly, leaning into Rainbow's side with an affectionate smile. She led the way out of the barn, and pushed the doors closed behind Rainbow, giving a firm buck to knock the crossbar down to hold the doors shut for the day. She quickly moved back up alongside Rainbow, though, walking with her. She raised a brow at the idea about Scootaloo, and immediately felt conflicted. She wanted to be involved, too, now.
Her expression was a bit hard to red, though - save that it was suddenly a bit conflicted. Still, she nudged into Rainbow, illustrating her sweaty flank. "Let me rinse off, an' we can go hit tha' cafe an' talk about it, ahright?" She suggested to Rainbow, meeting her eyes. She didn't want to be a pain, but she did wanna be there for Scootaloo too. They'd put off the adoption planning, when Rainbow had gone away again.
And, rinsing herself off would give her a chance to cool off from work and collect her thoughts. She didn't want to launch into a discussion while she was all hot and sweaty. She turned to Wordsmith and Beamer, and Sweetie. "Anyway, Word - Ya'll doin' alright? Ah'm wrappin' up for the afternoon. Rainbow an' I are goin' to drop by Summer Song." She put a hoof to the side, to Rainbow's shoulder, pointing out plainly and bluntly why. She grinned, and turned to Rainbow, nudging her neck against Rainbow's from the side, beaming gently. She then glanced to Sweetie Belle. "Why don't 'ya relax too? Ya' want a snack?" she offered cheerfully, motioning anypony who wanted to follow her back up to the house proper.
Inside, Granny smith rocked back and forth, eyes shut, resting peacefully. She stirred, though, as Applejack came in. AJ gave her a quick hug. "Hehe, Sorry, Granny! Rainbow's home!" She said cheerfully. "We're plannin' ta' go out to the cafe after ah' clean up."
"Awright dear, ya'll just have a good -"
She was cut off by Apple Bloom, who slid down the banister and trotted over to Sweetie. "Haay~! Ya'll been buckin' apples, right!?"
Applejack laughed. "Ah' see somepony is up from her nap." She teased, and Apple Bloom blushed a little.
"Ah was trainin' Ah'm runnin' the leaves this year! Ah'm gonna get mah 'Runnin' Cutie Mark!"
