You know, it was actually kinda hard to figure out a ship for Apple Bloom. To the point where I looked up other next gens for a bit of inspiration. That's when I came across Apple Bloom X Diamond Tiara. I thought about it, and imagined… local rich person marries farm girl and tries to get used to actually working for things with the assistance of wife. Now that's a good dynamic. And besides, it'd cause even more character development for the rest of the Apple Family as they start to forgive DT for, y'know, bullying. Golden Apple here is the product of that forgiveness.

Of course, the fanciness of Diamond Tiara never faded, and Golden Apple manages to combine the fancy and the dirty into a unique style of her own. Golden apple, golden heart. She's also helping the other two get their cutie marks as she already got hers.

… Oh, and fun facts about her design: Her coat was made by combining Diamond Tiara's coat and Applebloom's hair, her mane comes from the white in Diamond's Mane and the color itself comes from Apple Bloom's coat, and the eyes? Apple Bloom's mother's eyes. Pear Butter's eyes.
