“Applebloom, it fills my heart with glee  
To say you you’ve always been a daughter to me.”
 
So..anyone out there who can come up with a better rhyme? ^^u
 
 
Anyway, I do like the idea of these two having a mother/daughter relationship (and this will be canon in SketchVerse). I love Zecora, as she is a kind, wise and motherly sort of character. I also think her friendship with Applebloom is cute. Zecora is a significant adult mentor figure in A.B,‘s life, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Bloom did see the zebra as a sort of mother-figure, especially since her and her siblings lost their own parents (not even sure if Applebloom is old enough to remember them).
 
I think it’s super cute, and tropes involving mentors serving as surrogate parents are ones I find endearing. Hope I’m not the only one to thinks this is a cute and wholesome idea. ^^u
