Apple Bloom has a shameful secret - she can't help touching herself.

She doesn't know why it feels good, and she never does it for very long, but it's almost always on her mind. Any time she has alone is an opportunity to explore and make sense of the strange pleasantness that needs only a gentle touch from a curious hoof to start buzzing enough that it's hard to ignore.

Apple Bloom will have to ignore her shameful discovery if she wants to get to the bottom of why Scootaloo hasn't been crusading with her and Sweetie. Along the way, she'll have to figure out what Dinky Hooves knows about Scootaloo's flight training with Rainbow Dash, and why the private student of Princess Twilight Sparkle might be willing to lend Apple Bloom a helping hoof.

Dig Your Own Hole is a spiritual squeal to No More Kid Stuff and Sercw Me Sneselses Tihwglit, and it is recommended that you read those stories before jumping into this.
