For , set in her Junior Gala universe.
 
The Marshmallow sisters have long been considered honorary Apples, and poor Sweetie has found herself in a rather bad predicament. With Rarity off at college and unable to help, and their parents gallivanting off to the magical lands of No Personal Responsibility, Applejack takes it upon herself to take in the abandoned unicorn, letting her stay as long as she pleases. After giving her some pajamas and Bloom’s top bunk (Sweetie has proven to be a far more welcome bunkmate than Babs did), Applejack scooped the filly up on her lap, cradling her close as she murmered an old lullably.
 
“Someone holds me safe and warm, 
Horses prance through a silver storm, 
Figures dancing gracefully, 
Across my memory…”
