Since it's Hearts and Hooves day I thought I'd finally post the ships for my next gen, Rarity is missing because I'm still figuring it out.  The pony with Flim is an adopt I got from Unknown-Artist99 on Deviantart and I've already got the names for the foals of AppleDash and CheesePie and the design for a FlamLight foal too.

The Super Sailing Studio 6000
After flagging down a passing changeling and sending her to fetch Occupant, Chrysalis and Cherry trotted over to the docks. The closer the barge came, the gaudier it looked, brass and glass and brightly colored paint, as if the whole were a seagoing theater bent on attracting the attention and custom of… who, exactly?
Then, as the barge’s large paddlewheels backed water to bring the craft to a stop by the docks, the wind picked up just enough for the flag on the ship’s stubby mast to flap open, revealing a bright red-and-white FF logo.
“Well, pony, looks like we have been honored,” Chrysalis muttered.
“How do you figure?” Cherry Berry replied.
“The list of people who are bigger deceivers than any changeling is a short one,” Chrysalis said. “This ship belongs to two ponies near the top of that list.” After a moment’s thought she added, “That is, if they bought it legitimately, which I doubt.”
Flim and Flam are here to very casually volunteer their not at all suspicious services, from the fanfic Changeling Space Program.

THE FLIM FLAM BROTHERS
First Appearance: Green Lantern Apple Bloom (June 7, 2021)
Dimension: GLAB Universe
Allegiance: Civilian
Flim and Flam are two twin unicorns with your basic upbringing. While magically they were average, they were very gifted intellectually. But they had two big flaws: they were lazy and impatient. Rather than use their intelligence for long term gain, they use it to try to make as much money as they can. Thus was the case with their Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000. On paper it was a great idea but execution was where it failed.
Across Equestria, those who took the deal saw a better profit in the short term. But over time they couldn’t afford to keep going that way, so the Flim Flam Brothers left to find another easy mark as the poor farmers struggled to try to recoup their losses. This changed when they came into Sweet Apple Acres. Unlike the other Farms, the Apples were reluctant to accept so a contest was made.
They thought they had it in the bag until the Green Lantern used her abilities to speed up their side. Desperate, they speed up the machine and turn off quality control to keep up. In the end, it was a tie and due to their desperation a taste test gave victory to the Apple Family. They left Ponyville seeing their current plans failing. After encountering Silver Shill and his desperation to sell his beet leaves, the Flim Flam Brothers came up with a new plan.
Mixing the Beet Leaves with Apple Juice, they created a Miracle Tonic. While it has long term effects that are beneficial, they’re selling it as a cure all potion. And with Silver Shill acting as someone who was quickly healed from it, it began to sell excellently. Even Applejack was unable to think of the negatives of this tonic. Until she saw Granny Smith almost kill herself thinking she can do an act that she did as a young filly.
The Flim Flam abandoned the idea once more, though the Apples picked it back up and rebranded it as a new drink. They continued to do their various acts, with diminishing returns until they were discovered by Gladmane. He saw the potential they have together but saw the benefits of them working underneath him if he can get them to fight. And he’s very good at making tight pairs fight. They would probably continue fighting until Fluttershy convinced Applejack to help them.
With Gladmane overthrown, they now own his casinos. While that is a good source of money, it's just not enough for them so they still continue to find ways to make more. If it isn’t a Rival Friendship School, it's a shoddy product to sell to customers looking for the perfect gift. They may not want to rule all of Equestria or even a Tri-State Area, but these two are willing to do almost anything to get a quick buck.

Fun Facts:
I know they’re definitely on the Evil side of the alignment charts, but I made them civilians since they won’t go to the extremes like other evil entities. Heck, they haven’t stolen money yet.
I decided to put them together since they share the exact same story.

I changed Big Sugar's name to Bright Bramley because I think it sounds better, lol. But here is my version of the Apple Family Tree.  Are you ready for the lore dump, cuz here it comes!
Granny Smith, Winesap and Ashmead are fraternal triplets, (on the note of Winesap, he does have his own family, but I didn’t want to get into that as this is mainly to show Flim and Flam’s relation to the Apples.)
Now to address that topic, Flim and Flam’s mother Pomona met their father Hocus Pocus while passing through Manehattan on a delivery, she became infatuated with him and after an argument with her parents about how Hocus is a con pony, she ran away to live with him on a small farm just outside Manehattan, where Flim and Flam were born and raised.
After she left, Ashmead just kinda stopped talking about her, cutting contact completely, the other Apple family members don’t know about Flim and Flam and no one talks about Pomona’s leaving.
After the incident Flim and Flam move to Sweet Apple Acres while they recover, they eventually start helping out around the farm, and slowly, they become friends with the Apples and they bury the hatchet. AJ, Big Mac and Apple Bloom decide to visit Goldie again and Apple Bloom invites Flim and Flam along because they miss travelling.
When they get there, Goldie takes one look at the brothers and says “you two are the splitting image of your mother”. Flim and Flam ask how she knows their mother and Goldie searches through her records and shows everypony an old photo of Granny Smith, Winesap, Ashmead, Bright Mac and Pomona. She points at Pomona and says “she is your mother, isn’t she? She’s an Apple” Suffice to say, everypony is shocked to hear the news, although Granny reveals she had a sneaking suspicion they were Apples.

I just saw your vampus virus ask. How does it affect unicorns' magic? Since magic is channel through the horns/antlers, won't the fang shape make it dangerous to cast magic?
#Vampire virus tag
Tumblr media
Quick refresher on unicorns! They are a species of deer with two antlers that twist around each other in a spiral. They shed their horn every year during puberty, and then they shed again for significant milestones during adulthood.
Starlight Glimmer's horn is mutated and always grows back the same way, while Tempest Shadow's antler bud is permanently injured and cannot form a functional horn no matter how much she tries.
Tumblr media
The Vamprus virus changes healthy horns into a strange, fanglike shape. They cannot use magic in the same way, but have a new power. These untwisted antlers act as dousing rods for the user, allowing them to detect magic in the environment that would be indistinguishable to the common unicorn.
Vamrus-infected unicorns often seek out magic to quench their thirst. Flam here uses it to find exploitable new items to sell as the next big thing, or to promise gullible ponies that his curative tonic has magic in its ingredients when it's just apple juice and beet leaves.

My contribution to latest Draft Horses episode on youtube, the crackshipping for Valentines theme!
Using a Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder card deck, I was assigned shipping Broken Wing Rainbow Dash with the FlimFlam brothers in a setting of weathering out a storm.
This was my result.
Enjoy!
