"Another win for the Colts!" Rainbow called out over her main sport group while raising a keg overhead of everyone. 

"Yeah!" "Woohoo!" "Our third win!" Shouts came in response loudly as they all mirrored her action, raising their own individual glasses into an air cheers, each person there, whether from the male or female team, ecstatic with success. 

Applejack came over with more drinks that a few of them had ordered, the ending of the game in perfect coordination with the start of her and Rarity's shift. Once the match had ended and people started filing out of the stands despite the excited dog piling happening between players on the field, AJ and her friend also stood to leave so they could try beat the crowd and make it to work in time. With a smile that refused to budge from her face, Applejack watched the girl roll around with her mates as they all gave her their share of a slap on the back or a congratulatory yell. It was nice to see her proud of herself for her achievement, even though she always saw the one-sided lack of humility, she did deserve it, and the feeling surely must have been amazing. 

"Two mojito pitchers here, the rest are on the way with Rare," AJ told the group as they all took a sip of their beverages in unison after their first cheers of the night. She hadn't gotten the chance to tell Dash all she wanted to yet as her and Rarity got back to the bar before the rest of them did, and when the players did finally arrive, they only exchanged a grin when Rainbow entered. She ensured she delivered the order from the girls side, placing down the two large pitchers infront of the victor of the night just so she could pull a sly shoulder touch on her way out, letting her hand linger as it slid down her back slightly before walking back to the bench. 

Meeting her eyes, Dash was only wondering if she had impressed the girl she won the game for, the goal she scored, while being mostly executed as she wanted to prove herself, a small aspect also to gain the attention of her hookup. 

After a few more rounds were passed around and the group's conversing gradually increased in crescendo as the night droned on, Rainbow decided it was about time she took some action and talk to her girl to get a real answer instead of sneaky side eye glances. Standing up from her chair and letting the ground scrape almost soundlessly as her friends clamour blocked most of it out, she used the table as a momentary aid in standing, both palms to the wood, as she was slightly disorientated from her alcohol consumption. 

Staggering over to the girl who was cleaning glasses at the bar with her assigned towel that was occasionally slung over her shoulder, it was something Rainbow oddly found attractive, whether it be due to how it lay upon her chiseled arms or how the motion included a slight tilting of the head and craning of the neck like it were preparing to be trailed with kisses down. Applejack immediately caught sight of her from her peripherals, potentially already hoping the girl would approach her, as she proceeded to carry out the towel flip motion so her full attention would be on Dash. 

"Hey winner, how're you feeling after your big victory hmm?" AJ asked, entertained at how her actions were more loose than usual, but still sober enough that she was fairly conscious. 

"The same way I felt about all the other titles we took home," Rainbow snarked braggingly before zoning in on the actual game, "Felt good to finally be the one who made the difference," she spoke as she leaned over the bar with her elbows propping her up.
