ocellus · 5:04pm May 6th
does anyone remember if ocellus was just like born after the changelings became good because thats what like three years at most. unless ocellus is three years old that means she was around for longer before that possibly even during the assault on the wedding but at the very least around during chrysalis's second attempt (which lead directly to the changeling reformation in like, the same two days)
so whats up was ocellus just a bloodthirsty bitch for her childhood because the show kind of went out of its way to paint thorax is the only changeling who was docile
Ocellus remembers Chrysalis and fears her, so it's pretty likely she was at least a child when the changelings reformed. That said, I'd put her age at under 12 with how she acts. Changelings as a whole seem awfully naive, and uninformed (especially for a bunch of infiltrators...) and they start out utterly tiny as hatchlings, so it stands to reason that the deal with them overall is that they develop to adulthood at least twice as fast as ponies, and Chrysalis relied on this to regularly purge any that were getting properly mentally mature to retain control.
