The hidden genius of this moment

It is not just the fact that they're lesbians. It's everything that changes retroactively because of it

Apple is a royal and believes that she should live up to the destiny laid out for her. The reason she was fine with being with Daring is because everyone believed her destiny was with a prince

Darling is a rebel and wants to make her own fate. She comes a knight because she hates the idea of being a random princess who needs to be saved

The reveal of Darling being Apple's destined hero flips both of their views upside down

The societal norm of princesses being with princes caused everyone to assume that Apple was meant to be with Daring which resulted in her defying her destiny without anyone realizing

The other norm of princesses being damsels in distress pushed Darling to rebel and defy what was expected of her. However, since she actually is someone's knight in shining armor that means she was always following her destiny, and any attempt to make her conform was wrong on everyone else's part

The same people who were pushing these two to fulfill their destinies were actually forcing their false perspective of destiny on them over their actual destinies solely because it didn't align with societal norms
