As a changeling, Lumi's life was simple: go to work, train a new changeling, and meet a new human to feed on. However, mysterious changelings deaths have her investigating to keep the peace between species. Set in the Gentlemanverse
... Dude, that's FREAKY. I was not five minutes ago going through my favorites list, noticing this story, and hoping it updated soon. Well, uh... thanks! Will read momentarily.
It's good to see this story update. Also that bit with the changeling with the hole in the back of its head maybe it was an execution or something more?
That last turn of events was totally predictable(knew it while reading last chapter), but that doesn't mean the story will be, anyway, lets hope next chapter takes less time to publish, no pressure.
Hmmmm... Is that an existing relationship I'm smelling there? Poor Lumi.
Meh, I'm sure she's used to it. But that begs a great many questions. Am I right? What will Lumi and "Bradley's" relationship actually be. Will we be seeing a three away between Index, Sea Swirl, and Lumi?
But seriously, now I'm really curious about Index. Wouldn't it be so juicy if she turned out to be a changeling?
Loving this more and more with each new chapter. It's sort of like a crossover between 'When Harry Met Sally' and John Carpenter's 'The Thing'. Can't wait to see what happens next.
I don't think humanity will like the idea of Equestria hunting down the changelings, many people would see it like a pony version of the apartheid, independent of the situation.
Love this story, I really like how deep the characters are, they each have a back story and while some more than others. Its like the fimfiction verison of Game of Thrones just minus all the death.
It's a pretty common trope to play, so yeah, it's kinda obvious. If you want to put a mystery on something, don't make them talk until that last possible moment.
Well, if I take a neutral stance, I would understand Equestria's defensiveness. They met the species when they were trying to overthrow the government, then they just disappeared. For all they know, they are ebul ebul munsters.

It also doesn't help that changelings are rather insect-like rather than cute technicolor ponies. Humans would tend to swat the bug with a rolled up newspaper while cuddling the stuffing out of the fatally-adorable pony. A deviously smart changeling would realize this P.R. problem with humans and put a proper underdog spin to it. Humans love underdog stories. Then you'll start seeing commercials on TV with thin weak changelings staring at the viewer, big watery eyes, some narrator going on about the short and harsh life the little grub is going to have without your help to adopt this young lost soul. Segue into a happier commercial of a human and far healthier changeling playing together, a little magic and shifting shown before the payoff at the end with lots of cuddles and nuzzling.
And for the internet, heh, Mail Order Brides anyone? Russia? Nah. China? Nope. ....Equestria? Yes! And why settle for one kind of pony when you could have any kind of pony at a whim? Sounds a bit like a mare escort service to me though. (Hmm, that got a little dark at the end, whoops)
You are doing a good job peeking my interest in this story. You are giving me a hole new view of the working of changelings. That the changeling become part of the pony community with out harming the ponys is grate. Is a new saying going to come out that a man best friend is his changeling or a changeling best friend is his human? I wait to see how things develop in this story. that the changelings invest so much work to develop there assets is interesting. This wood make them important to the health of the ponys.
They wood make good doctors. whit there ability to sens emotion wood give incite in the human mine as will as ponys.

Enjoy.

Downloaded to read this. I'll let you know what I think tomorrow!
Also, good to have you back dude!
Aaaahhhh...
Got my changling fix now, all good.

What is a banger?

Here.
I forget, do changelings need love to live or is it more of a luxury product?

Given the author, I don't think they'll have to worry about putrefying the body.
I was just wondering about this story a few days ago. Good to see more of it.

Invasion of the body-snatcher-snatchers.
Also, I fucking knew he was Bradley.

We'll see.

Yeah, but for how long?

Glad that did it.

Not saying. Maybe.

I have never watched any of those.

Gives a clue on Shaun's personality here.
3872816
They obtain energy from it. It's basically their food. Without it, they starve.
3874059
Yeah, been trying to get more time to write.
Damn you Mass Effect. [shouts at the distance] Damn you!
3874432
Corrected, and thanks.

3872798
Thank you.
What, Bradley and Shaun were one and the same? I bet no one saw that coming!
Then again it didn't seem you were trying to hard to hide it.
3874584 Well, people would sure start to ask questions, why did they attack? Was it as bad as Equestria describe it? Why the fuck do they need love?
3874584
He's far too British for his own good?
Can Changelings survive on any other form of emotions or is it love all the way?
3874573
Oh, so there's actually a chance of an Index, Lumi, Sea Swirl threeway. Me likely.
and here is another story of yours going onto my favs list.

3874584 Any time.
The best stories are always the slowest to update. I need to find more good writers so I can get my fix more often.
I can not wait to arrive the next chapters I love this story
