What are the possible ways to change the color of the apples in My Little Pony fanfic without using magic?

The color of the apples in My Little Pony fanfic could be used for simple aesthetic purposes. Maybe the author likes to describe the vivid red or green of the apples to make the scene more appealing. It could also potentially be used as a way to identify different orchards or areas in the pony land. For instance, an orchard with all golden apples might be a special or magical place in the story.

In My Little Pony fanfic, the color of the apples might be described in relation to the ponies' perception of them. For example, a pony might see the apples as 'the most beautiful shade of red' because they are so delicious. The descriptions could also include how the color changes in different lighting. Maybe in the early morning light, the red apples have a slightly pinkish hue, which adds a touch of magic to the description.

In a My Little Pony fanfic, you could use magic as a means to change the color of the apples. Maybe a unicorn character could cast a spell specifically designed to alter the pigmentation of the apples. For example, Twilight Sparkle, being a very powerful and studious unicorn, might be able to develop a spell for this purpose. She could study the magical properties related to color and apply it to the apples in the orchard.

One idea could be to create an OC who is a unicorn with a special power related to time manipulation. This OC could accidentally get stuck in different time periods in Equestria and have to rely on the mane six for help while also learning about friendship in each era.

Well, perhaps there's a plotline where a new pony arrives in town and has a special cupcake recipe that the others have never tasted. This leads to a series of events where the ponies learn about different cultures through cupcakes. The ponies then work together to incorporate this new recipe into their own baking traditions, strengthening their friendship in the process.

Friendship is likely a theme, as it is in the main My Little Pony series. Maybe the pony puppy has to make friends with other ponies or creatures in the 'other stories'.

The main characters would likely include Twilight Sparkle. She's very studious and might use her magic to help with cupcake - related tasks like getting the right amount of flour or sugar. Pinkie Pie is also bound to be a main character as she loves parties and cupcakes are a big part of parties in Ponyville.

A possible plot could be Ranma getting lost in the world of My Little Pony. He might use his martial arts skills to help the ponies in Equestria deal with some sort of threat, like a group of monsters. The ponies, in turn, could teach Ranma about the magic of friendship, which is a central theme in My Little Pony.

A great plotline could be centered around a magical artifact. Maybe there's an ancient artifact in the Naruto universe that has the power to open portals to other dimensions. By accident, it gets activated and a portal to Equestria is opened. Naruto and some of his comrades enter Equestria. There, they meet the ponies. The ponies are initially scared but then realize that Naruto and his friends are there to help. They discover that an old enemy from Naruto's world has followed them and is now causing trouble in Equestria. So, they all work together to defeat the enemy. Along the way, there are lots of cultural exchanges and learning about each other's strengths and values.

Maybe the jar was left behind by an ancient pony civilization. It contains a message or a map that leads the ponies to a hidden treasure or a powerful magic item that can save their land from a new threat.
