Great work can’t wait for your next chapter

An intriguing premise, tracked to see where you choose to take it.

Thanks! Can't wait to write it! :D

Ahhh cultural issues, mixed with a hatchling's viewpoint and education, though she does seem blessed with quite a fair bit of intellect to balance it.

This story is pretty good so far. Can't wait for the next chapter.

Climbing back into bed, she used her magic to close the widow and pulled the covers over herself. Finding a comfortable position, she felt Inset cuddle up against her side. "It's just for warmth, I'm sure..." the mare whispered, finding herself tense as the prospect of sleeping next to something that could drain her, or worse, cocoon her.

Small mistake I found.
I really like this so far. Reminds me a bit of Changeling Courtship Rituals, with the "misunderstanding" of Twilight "submitting" to Instar.

Nice story, I can't wait to see how it develop :)

There are a few spelling mistakes, but I am a bad reader and can't really tell you where.
Only at the end of this chapter, you spell Instar as Inset.

Thanks! Fixed it :3

Pretty cute so far.

I'm actually curious how Inset's relationship will grow with Twilight. She doesn't seem to see her in a purely 'food' manner, which is good. I can see possessive older sister eventually. In the future, possibly doting or critical in a motherly manner. I can't imagine lover for quite some time if ever, because y'know, mentally a very smart newborn. That and she might actually only be attracted to other changelings.

It'll also be interesting to see other changelings react. I mean, Chrysalis is bad but apparently they need a queen. So reluctant acceptance? Instinctive relief? Something complicated?

Twilight's relationship with a newborn sure is heating up!
...I feel dirty. :applejackunsure:

Chronologically Instar's a newborn, haha. Biologically, she's the same age XD

"What? I checked while chasing it. Thorax is male," Twilight stated, tilting her head. "Speaking of, did you know that Thorax has an ovi-"

:rainbowlaugh:

Oh Twiight. Ever the scientific mind if bit socially-eccentric mind.

And I worry about the fact that I know how that sentence ends, too. :twilightoops:

I wouldn't be so sure about it being a familial relationship. There's a romance tag, after all, and the description itself...

Unless you're taking a guess at how the romantic relationship will be like.

9957245
Eh, I'm just hoping it won't go 0 year old with Twilight. Timeskips are a thing, after all, and feeling do change.

9957378
Instar is mentally a child. A newborn in fact, younger than a one year old and hence a zero year old. While she is physically about the same age as Twilight, it is as if a baby was mind-swapped into her body. It's much more fitting and morally sound for their relationship to be more familial than romantic considering Instar is nowhere near old or intelligent enough yet to give informed consent. Of course, any such laws in Equestria would be far more complicated than on Earth since they have a bunch of different species that mature at wildly different rates, so there is no way to know what the age of consent would be for changelings. If they mature within a few years as in many fanfics, then the age of consent would likely be around there. Of course, Harmony did seem to give her some form of intelligence so it is hard to say what maturity she is actually at. As far as I can tell, and what the characters in this say, she is at the level of a really smart child operating mostly on instinct.

The story is labelled slowburn romance, so it may be literally all the way through her growing up before Twilight actually sees her that way or it may be a timeskip to a more reasonable age.

Of course, Twilight is immortal, so it's hard to say how that affects consent laws. Nothing we have can translate exactly over to Equestrian society.

9957765
Ah, I see. Thanks for explaining.

There'll be plenty of time, as well as some time-skips to make sure that it doesn't seem like Twilight falls for her after like a week, haha.

I want this fic to be just as much about the physiological changes a Changeling goes through while becoming a new queen, while also showing a blossoming love and an earned redemption arc for a Villain that, arguably, started out with her best intentions for her hive.

Plus, adorkable Alicorn Twilight is best pone. ;3

9958189
I'm looking forward to it! I'm really enjoying the story so far.

9958266
I'm glad to hear it :3

The age old toddler question that sometimes is cute, lots of times is annoying, but every so often strikes an important chord.

Why?

A question the ponies never really did a lot to figure out the answer to in canon when it came to Chrysalis, at least not for the first time.

Food. That's why. She and her children were on the line of death from starvation. That drove her to madness and then to attacking the ponies like she did

9979349
True. She was only doing it to feed her kind.

Alternate Universe is for Luna and Celestia still ruling Equestria.

Yeah, I wasn't happy about that ending either, honestly. Instead of spending her life amongst her friends in Ponyville, where HER castle is, Twilight's been forced to separate from them to do a duty she never liked nor wanted.
Just...no. Bugger off, Hasbro; Twilight never wanted to be a princess, never liked being treated as one, and likely never wanted to usurp her mentor and idol.

none of us would be here as I most likely would have most likely burnt this continent at her command

What could Luna do? Go all Majora's Mask and slam the moon into the planet? Cause tidal waves, if lunar mechanics are somewhat the same as Earth's?
We all know Flurry can cause blizzards, so she's a definite threat, but Cadence? I guess a mind-controlled Cadence could cause ponies to fall in love with each other, resulting in a massive orgy, but...that's not life-threatening. Weak princess.
Twilight could do practically anything, so she's definitely a threat too.

The lady time

The *last* time.

Although, to be honest, Canterlot is probably the center of power of Equestria, all the nation's workings are located there, so moving all of that would not be only an undertaking but also disruptive to governance.

... although, I have to agree to the didn't want to usurp her mentor and idol... but not for the reasons you've described.

Why did you want to make it weird

Because Twilight, it's so much more fun that way. :trollestia:

Well, Chrysalis' reaction wasn't what I was expecting. Perhaps she realized that trying to take over just isn't going to work. Ever.

i have a thought that their is going to be a herding happening involving those 3

this is getting interesting, can't wait to see whats going to happen.

A great story. I look forward to more. Instar is adorable.

close the widow

Yes, better close her before her insides spill everywhere. :trollestia:

Ah yes. Almost a year in the making. Welcome back

10455828
Heh, thanks. I'm glad you're still here ^^

10455852
Don't take a year for the next chapter this time my friend. I love this too much

Huzzah! A new chapter has emerged! :yay:

Besides, who's going to save you again when it, inevitably, takes over Ponyville."

That would be entertaining to see, actually - a completely accidental takeover of Ponyville. The changeling queen wasn't intending on that whatsoever, but through a series of hijinks and mishaps she's now the ruler.

What this? A new chapter? Yay!~
Learning more and more about Changelings, and it seems Twilight's Alicorn instincts trying to take control. Oh maybe Im looking to much into it.

Continue on my (little) pony, but don't rush, but don't take a whole year to update.:trollestia:

Not planing on taking over world, yet,
~Captain Absolution~

10456355
Make Instar her lover. Like I said, looking to much into. Maybe. High chance of yes.

Might have a plan to take over the World, or get dinner, one of these two,
~Captain Absolution~

Una

I'm so glad this story isn't dead. :fluttercry: I almost lost complete hope in it.

Does thorax knows they are going extinct?

i got to say i love how Chrysalis is the Bigger one here and is Trying

That is true. Starlight was forgiven for everything. Even after she "reformed" she still went through time. She still brain washed ponies. She changed the princesses cutie marks without consent. She's done a fuck ton of bad and is still considered being good

10460021
which is part of why i dont much care for starlight. nearly fucked up the entire timeline? slap on the wrist. brainwashing and swapping cutie marks? oh thats ok, just dont do it again without asking.

oh, and theres the whole thing of 'im a unicorn that never went to magic school, yet could overpower the ALICORN OF MAGIC'

How come chrysalis refers to instar by ''my queen''?
