DON'T DO STUPID

T
Source

On what is to be the one of the greatest achievements for the changeling army, and an invasion is declared on the crystal empire by an army of thousands...and one unwitting soul.

But on Crux' attempt to escape the army's trials, the very position he'd tried to escape lands on a power unlike anything he'd ever known before...

Contains: weight gain, muscle growth, and macro.

Based on the recent image "Empowered" by Clock-Face, whose permission I am grateful for.

Hey man, I saw you write this on derpibooru. It's a well-written joy to read, props especially on the description of his gradual transformation from runt to Hercules (Beetle!). Funnily enough, I talked to and forth with the artist in question who is a friend of mine, making suggestions and discussing the subject matter. We both had a lot of fun with this one, though of course all the credit should go to him. He deserves it.

I kinda wrote my own little response to yours if you don't mind, just for laughs:

Crux’s Mother: "Oh, I can’t tell you how proud we are of our little grubbie! Aren’t we, honey?"

Crux’s Father: (not looking up from his copy of The Changeling Times) "Mmm-mmm."

Crux’s Mother: "And to think all these years we thought little Crux would never amount to anything, you know, on account of him being—uh, what was it you used to call him, dear?"

Crux’s Father: (still not looking up from his paper) "A ’weak little chickenshit pantywaist who won’t achieve dick in his worthless, pathetic life except maybe a job cleaning up the communal toilets.’"

Crux’s Mother: "Oh yeah, that’s right!" (swelling with pride, hugging himself) "And now he’s filled out into my big, buffed buggy bug! The Emperor of all the Hives, Equestria and the whole stinkin’ world! I always said all he needed was some meat on his bones, but no matter how much I shoved down his whiny little trap, he just wouldn’t sprout. The Crystal Heart’s done him wonders!"

Crux’s Father: "Yeah, now he’s a brain dead, stinking blue cheese fat ass."

Crux’s Mother: "He really could work on that big belly of his. I mean, it’s not like he hasn’t got the free time anymore, now he’s Emperor of the World and all. It’s certainly not helping him with his love life. I mean, he’s always had problems with that, but, well—you didn’t hear this from me— but he’s already squished three of his marefriends under that thing when they were making love."

(Crux’s Father’s snorts and soon his shaking hooves drop the paper as he throws back his head in uproarious laughter).

(Excerpt from a rare interview for The Changeling Times with Emperor Crux’s parents, some years after his conquest of Canterlot and subsequently the whole world.

Keep up the good work, mate!

6789704 You're welcome. And I hope you enjoyed my own little silly omake there :twilightblush:

This NEEDS a Sequel. PLEASE

6789869 Any spots you'd recommend?

6790600 Thanks. I'm going to go through it again sometime soon.

Yes, this was a really fun story but like Megapone said, I wish Crux did something with all that wonderful size. This almost feels like a prelude. I might not have actual story writing skills but I've been roleplaying for about five years so I think I have just a smidge of sense when it comes to writing ^^; But yeah, really fun story, just kinda missing a little more substance. Would be great to see a part two to this~

Also, I did love that picture when I first saw it on FA <3

It's a great story but do you know what will it make it better, a SEQUEL ! I know it's a one shot but I would love to know what happens afterwards. Anyways , good work.
