>Dressed up as a pumpkin, Applejack makes her way to the festivities at the town square.
>She hears Twilight call her name behind her and she turns to greet her.
>AJ: "Howdy there Twi..."
>She sees that Rarity is accompanying her and both of them are pregnant with orange suits bearing her cutie mark.
>AJ: "...what the hay is going on here?!"
>Rarity: "So Applejack, darling, do you like our Nightmare Night costumes?"
>AJ: "It's a little disturbing that ya all dressed up like me, includin the pregnancy part."
>Rarity laughs: "Yes, well since you are the one pregnant this year, I decided to make the latest model in my inflatable pregnancy suits after you. Just like what I did of Twilight a couple years ago."
>Twilight frowns: "Don't remind me."
>AJ: "Ah never asked before, but why are ya workin on those anyway?"
>Rarity: "Glad you asked. It started as a gag between me and Derpy, but Bundle Joy ended up interested in my design after she saw Derpy wearing the Twilight suit."
>AJ: "Oh that surrogate pony?"
>Rarity: "Yes, her. Even though these suits are full body, I've been working on versions of just the midsections for her. She wanted her clients to also experience pregnancy by wearing them and inflating them to the same size as her throughout the pregnancy."
>AJ: "Wow, that sounds like a great idea."
>Rarity: "But that's not all, my dear. Twilight can tell you the next exciting thing about this."
>Twilight: "Sure thing Rarity. Inflating the bellies themselves are nice and all but it's pretty much a balloon strapped around you. You don't get to really feel the joys of pregnancy, so I've been working on an enchanting device that syncs the belly up with a pregnant pony's belly. Thus allowing the belly not only to inflate to the size of the pregnant pony's belly but to also feel everything that said pony feels too in that area."
>AJ has a blank stare.
>Twilight: "Let me show you. I want you to feel around your belly and feel around in the same spot on mine."
>AJ: "Erm...alright."
>AJ feels around in the same spot on both bellies. Her foal within gives a kick and she also feels it in the same spot on Twilight's belly.
>AJ: "What in tarnation?! That is amazing!"
>Twilight: "See! Everything that happens within your belly is simulated on mine, but not the other way around." She pokes her belly to show nothing happens on AJ's.
>Gears churn in AJ's head: "Hold on! When did you link our bellies together?!"
>Twilight blushes: "I snuck up behind you in the market and used the device on my costume a couple days ago."
>Rarity: "Oh! So you finished the device and it works on these full body suits as well. I wonder...do you have the device on you right now?"
>Twilight: "I sure do! Do you want me to link your's up with AJ's belly?"
>Rarity: "Go right ahead. I've never been pregnant so it'd be nice to see how it feels."
