Sixpence


It's raining. It's always raining D: Why did I move here again...

I have traveled this world for decades. Yet I have seen no sign of life but the predators that hunt their prey.

I have made a home among the jagged peaks of a near dead wasteland. One day a creature fell from the sky, badly wounded.

She calls herself Chrysalis. She tells me that she is the last of her kind.

Or so she thought.

At least now he has a... Leg up in this world *snort* *snort*

I'm stupid. :facehoof:

Well well, this is interesting.

Haven't exactly read a story with a premise similar to this yet, so lets see where it goes!

Interesting concept. Definitely tracking.

I never realized changelings are as hard to kill as cockroaches. I find this opener fascinating and unique. Tracking!

I wonder if his healng abilities could be used to heal her? I wonder if this will turn into a romance?

for a decades

'Decades' is plural but 'a' is singular... might want to fix that. Ten years verses twenty plus years is a pretty big factor.


It's making me hesitant to read when combined with the fact you left us hanging on your other two stories.

hell yes this fic is awesome :derpytongue2:

That was bad, and you should feel bad.

Hot damn. I hate it when there's errors in the description. And now there was one in mine... It's supposed to be decades.

I understand. I probably should have changed the 'incomplete' tag to 'On Hiatus'. Because they're not cancelled. I'm picking Heaven Sent back up in January, because now I actually have weekends off from work, and I want to write it again. My Little Princesses... Well, I'm going to finish it, but I think I'm putting the 'Our years' in a side story later, right now I can't seem to get it done. This story is something I felt like doing to kick the creative gears back into motion, as well as trying to build something around interactions with Chrysalis.

But I understand the feeling.

This is really good! I'm enjoying this alot, and i hope more is on the way. :twilightsmile:

The flashback was interesting, a sort of Lazarus themed history to the fellow. The "revival" power used was rather vague but I'd guess it was coming from him rather than being pulled out by her, a nifty talent to have if he can ever figure out how to do it at will. I guess next on the list is to see if Crysalis will regrow her leg-- something the show never touched on and very few fanfics hint at is how bad can a changeling be hurt and still fully recover? Does their shapeshifting magic allow them to heal even the most grievous of injuries like a reptile regrowing a lost tail, given enough 'love' and time? If not, can they regain a lost limb by shapeshifting into a new form that has all it's limbs, just being crippled when they're in changeling form? Or does the damage carry over into any new form they assume? That's something you should think about now that the opportunity has presented itself in your story.

This is assuming our human doesn't first reattach the limb with more of his weird latent magic.

His 'backstory' might not be all that interesting in itself, but it's a beautiful world. Lots of stuff to look at, and maybe find. The 'revival' power was supposed to be vague, I have a plan for it and how it actually works. Lots of tiny little mechanics that'll make him interesting, hopefully.
As for the leg, there's a plan in place, as well as some headcanon as for how their shapeshifting magic works. The current limb, laying there forlorn, will be dealt with in the changeling fashion.

1861181
There is.

Batman.

He is now Batman.

Make it so.

I'm always partial to "That Fucker."
For something obviously fitting: Lazarus, Adam, Conner, Jack, Vandal, John Oldman.

Hankog, Jironimo, Deus Ex, sching lao, raackanieee, Bug, Heinrich, Steve, Witchman (alias Bitchman), Bart, Bono, Ted, Nonhoof, Rabisch, Lemperd, Rooney or Jane Riverspoon

Telonius Bone, also known as T-Bone!

1867438>>1867489>>1867515
Well. So far Hadschott has the most relevant names.

I'm thinking something it would be natural for Chrysalis to call him.

1867554
Bald Monkey.
It's brilliant!

Name him Scruffy.

Also, will there be any shipping?

Is it just me, or this is very, VERY similar to a clopfic that is in hiatus? (So far it's almost the same)

Name him Seth!

1867438>>1867651 This. This times infinity.

1867732
It is? Should I be flattered? Scared?

Now I'm curious! Damn it. Which one is it? I seriously have no idea.

1867554

Lets see. . .

Pale Skin, Wander, Undeath, Morti, Timeless, Eternal Walker, or Balance. . .

Thats what I got, for now.

Meatbag is always fine.

Stick (if he happens to be tall and skinny)
Stick (because he beats her with his staff so much)
Actually, he hits her with his staff like it's a bat and he is a man. Yeah, you knew it was coming up again.

1867807>>1867837
Personally I liked fleshbag. It has a nice ring to it.
And Beyond, you get a nice thumbs up on your comment because you guessed right on something, yay!(The something in question is subject to change if the story demands it. Like when Chrysalis broke out in a fit of laughter, thaaaat wasn't planned. Which is kinda creepy.)

And, T-nab, I'd give you a thumb just because I really like your stories, but... Rules are rules you know.

Lets think about this...
Chrysalis just got curb stomped.
She meets a unkillable being that wants to be her friend.
What would she call said being?
GOT IT! Chrysalis would call him 'weapon'!

1867897
Yeah, not bad, but that would be a compliment. I just don't see her doing that, voluntarily.

She's at least going to throw a few (or a lot) insults in there..

Chapter preview:

"Mmaybe?" Chrysalis answered with a smirk. "Why?"

"Oh I don't know. Maybe it was when you called me ******, or *****?" I sneered at the changeling.

Chrysalis smirked and batted my shoulder with her good hoof. "You're too easy, you know that?"

1867884

Fleshbag? What is she, Bender? "Bite my shiny chitin flank!"

Ok, that is funny. :rainbowlaugh:

Hugh (pronounced - hew). short for human :derpytongue2:

1867787

Seriously.

Batman.

She can call him that because she says the way his cloak billows reminds her of a bat, and taking the man from human.

Batman.

I say let's go with Creeper

oh,oh! i have one, how about "last one" or "eternal", no wait "time lost"? "zombie"?
or some other.:pinkiesmile:

CAPTAIN BANANA!!! SHE WILL CALL HIM CAPTAIN BANANA!! DO IT!!!!!!

Person, Thing, Creature, Pet, Child, Meanie, Ass, Colt, Girly, Your Immortalness, Chuck, and... Norris. But seriously the last two are: Crazy, and Human.

All my suggestions that could make sense.

EDIT: (Wanted to make a new one so my old wouldn't get deleted (So what? I'm paranoid!))

Read previous comments.
95% chance his name is gonna be Wander; 5% Wanderer.

Raisins.
I mean seriously, who doesn't like raisins?

I think Fire-poker is a fine name.:eeyup:

Call him

"The Lone Wanderer"

Go Fallout on him :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

I like where this is going. Please...continue.
