For my shipping grid adoptables :)

I was asked to make a "poofy goofy love princess", who started as a pegasus and ascended to an alicorn. You know I love to draw poofy manes, so I had no problems with those instructions =P

For the color scheme, to work with I had; pink, pink, pink, yellow, purple, blue eyes, and pink. And maybe some grey and brown from the grand parents. And, …now don't crucify me for this, but I actually kinda like g3's Pinkie's color scheme over g4's. I'm weak for ponies having darker coats with lighter colored manes. So since I had a lot of pink to work with, I initially decided to go that route and give her a darker pink body with a lighter pink mane. I also wanted to use either the yellow and purple I had access to, so that it's not just pink on pink. Additionally, I wanted her to have a different mane as a pegasus and as an alicorn, since it's just a fun thing to do. So I gave her a pink mane with yellow stripes as a pegasus, and a pink-to-yellow gradient as an alicorn. The former also has a bit of gradient to it, since both Cadence's and all the cystal ponies' manes has that effect. At first I gave the wings a yellow gradient as well, but felt it looked a bit too… camouflaged in the mane. I then decided to use the purple too in the design, as I felt the purple wings contrasted really nicely with the mane. Brings to mind sunrise and dusk a bit? Made the eyes purple, and gave filly-stage purple bows to keep the color-scheme throughout the stages.

For the body type, I thought I'd be fun if she was kinda tiny? At least, I headcanon Pinkie as being very smoll, and it'd be fun if she inherited it, as alicorns typically are on the much taller side. The mane I let just be a big floof, since it looked fun to have a big mane on a tiny pony. Except the filly version, who, as I mentioned, I gave some bows.

The mark, I decided to go with the idea of a talent for celebrating love? So maybe weddings or heart and hooves day or pride or something? For the actual mark, I went with a sillier tone, since it fit with Pinkie's kid. So a heart balloon for both Pinkie's balloons and Cadence's crystal heart surrounded by streamers and confetti.

I've already discussed how I both like and make "Pinkamena Diane Pie" and "Maudileena Daisy Pie"-sounding names in a previous grid adoptable result, so… some here will be copied probably. The middle name can be any irl name basically. The first name can be nonsense, but needs to be able to be shortened into a one or two syllable name that makes somewhat sense even if a bit silly (Pinkie, Maud). And finally Pie. I like to give Pinkie kids names like those, because A) it's fun and unique and B) Maud proved there's a patterns in the family, so it's fun to follow it.

So going with that, I came up with Amourora Desiree Pie (Amour/Amie Pie). Amourora is a portmanteau of Amour and Aurora (amour meaning love, and Aurora (the goddess) often being associated with lust. Fun fact! One of the reasons my Fire Aurora is named what she is.) Desiree starts with a D, like Diane and Daisy, and comes from Desire. For the short, I think both Amour Pie and Amie Pie works, depending on if you want to go more towards serius or silly. Amie there meaning friend. Also, Amour from "Princess Mi Amore Cadenza"… though that's italian, while Amore is french… eh, Amore works to if you want her to have inhereted Cadence's name.

I also wanted to give non-pie name options. The reason for them is obscure. So, during the third generation there was sometimes "Valentine ponies" toys released, two each year it was. (For two of the years, Pinkie Pie was actually one of them, the other being Sweetie Belle). And since the talent here has to do with celebrating love, I thought I'd be fun to reference the ponies released for Valentines. One year, the ponies released were "Always and Forever" and "Yours Truly". Both are signoffs on love letters. So. "Lots of Love" for a sillier pony (intials are LOL, lol) and Eternal Love for a slightly more serious version. :)

And that's it. Sorry it's taken longer than expected, but I think I'm back in the groove and you all can expect the rest of them pretty soon

Thank you for the donations, and I hope you like her! :D
