Let's get this straight - I don't like people. I like being alone with my thoughts without having to go through the mundane distractions of social commitments.
So when I was asked if I wanted to go someplace with no human interactions, I hopped onboard without a second thought. I probably should have thought that one through.
There's no humans, sure, but in order to survive I HAVE to be able to have a steady conversation with ponies. Considering ponies are exactly the same as humans... It isn't going to be easy. Oh, and there's that whole 'Save our race otherwise you die,' deal. I can't believe I got roped into something so convoluted it makes the Lost storyline seem like something you read to a child.
Based on Rust's immense and amazing universe and a part of the Chess Game of the Gods.
this seems....intersting.......READING NOW!!!!!!!
Kinda creepy that this is my exact personality type, and i would act the same way the OC does.
Vat, unt no comments. Well, nice introduction. I will continue reading now, so don't you dare think of giving up and dropping this story.

Wouldn't dream of it!

I freaked out that you commented on this. Then I freaked out when you favorited it.
And now you request the highest of fives for my work?
YOU SIR, HAVE MADE MY DAY. YOU SHALL HAVE MY FIVE UPON HIGH.

I'm liking this, so far that makes three Changlings in the game. Sentinel, Knightmare and that one for I Want To Run!
should i continue reading this? ...why not!
Tell me what you thought! I must feast on your feedback!
Also, credit to Rust for being so awesome. And BlackWing, and everyone who read this. You guys are just as awesome!
Edit: I should mention that after this chapter, shit starts goin' down. I already know what I'm planning for Sentinel to do and I think you guys are gonna like it.
Heheh. He's in trouble.
Talk about 1st thinking b4 you speak. Then picking all the worst things to say. This poor changeling is so bucked.
Being awesome come free of charge. Usually.
Also - EQUESTRIAN WEATHER LOGIC WHY U SO BUCKED UP
"She trying to hide it"
tried to hide it
"And she had react as if she were afraid."
reacted as if
783774 Thanks for the catch. Fixed.
If you find any mistakes or errors just point them out and I'll fix 'em. It's for your reading pleasure, after all
It has been a while since something good came along, and this fits the bill. Continue on with exceptional work good sir.

Indubitably, sir/madam.
Very nice. Very nice indeed. Please continue, i do look forward to see what these particular changelings feed on.
Last march of the ents at least someone rembers them
Me Gusta
Well, living in a world where "Love and Tolorance" are the norm... It's not really a surprise the numbers are so low. But what does he (You) feed on?
804298
What fun is there in spoilers? Hehe, don't worry, I know exactly what he feeds on.
You'll find out soon enough.
AH... Get serious. He just need to walk into town and act like any typical Trollolollo. Whole town will get angry with him and 473 will suck up the feast..... Him figuring out to do this will be the fun part.
Nova please delete this if it's a spoiler.
And, here we go.
Before I slide into a nice and cozy slumber, let it be known that the next chapter is going to be one hell of a ride and may take quite a while to finish.
you know, with the right PR this hive could probably get ponies to pay them to feed. a married couple, angry at each other, pay a small fee for the changeling to suck all the anger out of them, everyone goes home happy.
813082 dont think it works like that, they dont only drain their emotions untill they are not there but use the to fuel them but dude if i was a changeling in this world i would want to be one that feeds off of fear and confusion, i would be like king because i make no sense and people are afraid of the changelings. wont even have to change forms
813082
I take it your thinking of the way Volo feeds in "I want to run". Where he literally sucks the stress and negative emotions right out of ya? Yes, I can see this hive making quite a profit as anger management specialists and marriage councilors if they actually drain anger.
813158>>813150
not sure who volo is but i believe it's reasonable to assume that law of conversation of energy exists, and changelings gain energy by draining it from emotions. this has a couple possibilities.
1: the victims energy stores are being drained through the 'emotional wavelength' witch would harm and eventually kill the victim. makes for some dark stories knowing that a changeling could get you to love them until you died from it.
2: it's the energy put into the emotion that is being drained. Chrysalis mentioned equestria having more love then anywhere else, suggesting that this is the more likely situation. as the energy put into the emotion is bleed off the emotion itself should weaken
P.S. it seems it's already fannon but "and gains power by feeding off your love for them" not sustenance.

Well, as described in this work of fiction, changelings feed by absorbing the excess energy that emotions tend to give off. So it'd be more like the second possibility in your comment. The first possibility is rather contradictory, if a changeling kill their host from feeding too often it would be seen as a loss of potential food.
Also, it is sustenance to them. There's no question about it, they're parasites.
All speculation aside; there be some nice nuts here.
hmm... oh ya Chrysalis does make mention of finding food for her subjects. forgot that part. although a few times it's referred to as power instead of food. my mistake.

S'aight, man, everyone makes mistakes.
Now if you excise me, I must abide.
Great chapter, really enjoying this story. Good take on the changeling's and their mentality.
cant wait for the next chapter when is it?
821276
It'll be done when it's done. And it'll be a long one, trust me.
I split this chapter into two separate chapters, it was getting way too long.
If you find anything that needs fixing, don't hesitate to comment about it. Other than that, enjoy!

I found a major error...
836670
And that error would be... ?
836726
The chapter ran out of words
Some Spelling errors at the end. Past that, great stuff.
836734
HA! I shall have to remedy that very soon then, won't I?
Good stuff here, and you gotta love that ending.
Dude, That Changeling should make a Haunted House attraction in whatever place he ends up at....He'd eat like a King. Not to mention, It would be in good taste, Whatever fear he fed on would be from ponies that WANTED to be frightened, and he May or May not make a profit from admission fees!

Yeaaaah, I was gonna implement something along the lines of the Nightmare Night episode eventually.
Your idea sounds a lot cooler though.
I wonder what will happen next and also am first
Great chapter, appropriately titled, well written, good character interaction and a very do I dare say 'Frightening' Revelation
.
Looking forward to the next chapter and our little Fear Feasters adventures/misadventures.
