This is a really good chapter, and its hard to believe its supposed to be these two paired up, but I'm interested in seeing where this goes for sure.

That's why it's a character arc. The characters - particularly Celestia - start the story at A and by the end, they'll be at B, via a few connecting sub plots.

Aand there is the fetishy stuff i had hoped to not be too cringey . . sads now.

What didn't you like about this chapter? Also, there wasn't anything fetishistic in this chapter.

That was a pretty unique take on changeling reproduction definitely caught me off guard. Not sure if cannon Celestia would ever approve that particular "medical" procedure but I can see it within the fic.
With that in mind I wonder if we will see the S6 finale metamorphisis or not towards the end. And if so how will that tie in to the main plot?
Keep it coming :)

I doubt it. Neither me nor my co-writer care very much for the multi coloured jelly beans that the changelings became. I hope that's not a deal breaker for you.

And the idea of the pony incubators was inspired a little by Alien, just think eggs instead of face hugger. The plan might seem ghoulish at first, but it's really not. The ponies who volunteer were terminally ill any way.

I don't mind the jelly beans , but I hope it will not happen here. I think it would gravely undermine the seriousness of the whole situation if they could just share the love with each other from the start.

I guess that depends on your personal perspective and I think it in character with Celestia that she is reluctant to the whole idea even though at the end of day she goes with it. Anyway, it is interesting to see some new approach how to handle changelings other then what happened in the S6 finale.

If you could telegraph it any more with THAT cutie mark and teats and ass display, i'd be highly surprised . .

Enjoying this a lots so far

I thought it already did

i want to enjoy this entire story, but the au is set up off of events in the authors mind, we dont empathize with celestia because shes just screaming names of places, i kinda just wanna punch celestia

I really like how you've humanized (ponyized?) Celestia in this story. Yeah, she comes of as a bit irrational, but it makes sense in the wider context of the world.

the au is set up off of events in the authors mind

The AU is based off of the changeling invasion as seen at the climax of Season 2. I just expand upon it.

we dont empathize with celestia because shes just screaming names of places

YOU might not empathise with Celestia, but a lot of readers do. Yes, she was screaming the names of places. The names really aren't important, except that they were prominent unicorns and Canterlot is primarily a unicorn city. What is important, that you seemed to miss, was that ponies died at those places in the war and Celestia blames Chrysalis for all those losses.

i kinda just wanna punch celestia

Then, I'm afraid you've missed the point of this story, and I don't think it's for you.

Thank you. Yes, she's irrational, but she isn't thinking clearly. At this point in the story she's full of hate towards Chrysalis for what she did at the invasion. She blames her for the tens of thousands that died, and now she's confronted with her enemy that needs her help.

Yep, Xenomorphlings are cool.

Chamber pot cutie mark... Should I be worried?

'potable drive' - I'm pretty sure you meant portable, unless you drink it. :P

Don't be worried. There's nothing scat related at all in this story. I promise, because I personally hate that particular kink / fetish. The toilet cutie mark is purely to humiliate.

Welp... im enjoying this... mostly because of the teats Xbow if we only we had an actual inage... theb it'd be perfect.

“That…is an idea...” with a deep sigh and no small feeling of disgust at what she had just said – more so because she was imagining passing it off as an accidental derailment – Celestia plopped down on her generous ass and reached for the tea that Royal Ribbon’s staff had been drinking. Hoping as she did so that her sainted mother would forgive her thoughts. The chief of which was, ‘I need a break…’

Tfw you want to genocide an entire race because they fought for their survival.

Is enjoying fic thus far, odd that chose xenomorph style of changelings reproducing but still enjoyable
