The image here got me thinking in a scenario, like if Chrysalis found Twilight as a filly and witnessed her magical power, and she turned her into a changeling and Twilight was raised by Chrysalis in the bad lands. You think Chrysalis would actually learn what it means to be a parent? Or is she too low for that? Edited October 4, 2014 by TheMarkz0ne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nulln 755 October 4, 2014 Share October 4, 2014 To twilight? probably not. Ponies are their food source. Chrysalis isn't bad, she's just trying to feed her species, and their food just so happens to be our main characters' species, so they're depicted as bad. I'm sure if she had children of her own, she'd take good care of them, just as she takes care of her hive (which, by bug standards, may very well be all of her children ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleRainbow_Dash 317 October 4, 2014 Share October 4, 2014 Thats interesting and I honestly cant think of an answer. We barely knew Chrysalis as a character in CW so its hard to tell considering we dont really get to know her as a character rather than a big bad guy(girl). There is a possibility that Chrysalis could do that, in an alternate universe but if she is the mother of all the changelings she doesnt really treat them more than a means to an end. However Twilight is special so perhaps she would get better treatment from the queen.....I have some thinking to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fawkes The Phoenix 737 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 Yes, I've always pictured Chrysalis as a desperate mother willing to do anything to feed her children. 1 Equestria's best unicorns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celli 4,348 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 Who knows? Maybe she just feeds her changeling children for her own personal gain, and she doesn't care about them at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOneComrade 1,092 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 I'd assume so. If she's willing to infiltrate Canterlot and single handidly crash a wedding, weaken a massive force field enough for her waiting troops to break in, and take down the PONY GOD to feed her children, she's more than capable of raising a child like Twilight (I guess the Hive itself is like 3000+ children already. What's one more?). I honestly don't think it'd be below her at all. We only saw her as wicked because we were watching her from the Equestrian POV during an invasion of their capitol. We don't really know what she's like as an individual other than determined and a bit cocky. tl;dr: Yes 1 href="/monthly_02_2014/post-8308-0-69609200-1393191794.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Chrysalis would actually learn what it means to be a parent? Or is she too low for that? No. Look at how Chrysalis is all "I am a proud, stern evil Queen of doom" while Twilight looks like a really angry jerk just waiting to tear some Changeling's wings off for interrupting her "Plans For Overthrowing Chrysalis Planning Time" Time. The current Twilight raised by Celestia and also Twilight's Mom and Twilight's Dad is a way better Twilight. Plus she could kick Changeling Twilight's butt. Chrysalis: Look in front of you, Twilight. Everything the light touches... is our food. Changeling!Twilight: I don't give a darn, darn it! I just see a bunch of stupid ponies to eat completely, to put them out of my misery. Chrysalis: But if you eat them all, there won't be any food left for the hive, or for you the next day! Changeling!Twilight: Good! They won't annoy me any more. And if things get really bad, we can just eat other less-competent Changelings.

Starshine 16,335 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 I'm pretty sure there's a fanfic that covers this exact subject, but instead of a pony Twilight was actually a changeling from the start that Chrysalis planted in Equestria to give her a chance to live a normal childhood. Cheeseleg was actually quite sympathetic in that story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symphony Rose 104 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 ok what no, chrysalis lacks the feeling of love which is the reason she FEEDS on it. I don't think maternal instincts come forth either. you're the adonis that captured my eyes, my heart my very soul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KokuraiNoSenshi 3,465 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 I would definitely say yes. Thing is, the whole reason she did what she did was to feed her subjects, imagine what lengths she would go to for her children. Twilight? Probably not. Kids in general? Oh hell yes Thank you Pinkamena-Pills for resizing the original, and putting that little message at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson Cross 7,533 October 6, 2014 Share October 6, 2014 I think Chrysalis is too low for that personally. She seems to be too wrapped up in her evil plots. Plus it would kind of defeat the purpose of Twilight's fate of the keeper of the Element of Magic. Now with more added tea leaves!

A goat 323 October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 I think Chrysalis would rather absorb Twilight's magic than become her mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A goat 323 October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 It doesn't quite work like that. She feeds off the love of others; she doesn't simply absorb their magic. I stand corrected, she would rather feed off her love than become her mom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMarkz0ne 962 October 8, 2014 Author Share October 8, 2014 Why not both? Seems like a decent use for a filthy little pony. Chrysalis would treat the next heir to the throne like crap. She would teach Twilight how to rule a empire, except it's not one of ponies. Hey at least Chrysalis would give Twilight title of Queen in the future, unlike Celestia who made her a princess.

TheMarkz0ne 962 October 8, 2014 Author Share October 8, 2014 (edited) What makes you think she'd make her heir to the throne? Plus I don't imagine Chrysalis is any less immortal than Celestia and Luna. Well if Chrysalis never had a child who would be? I guess you could say she is mother of all changelings though. Not if this happened.... Edited October 8, 2014 by TheMarkz0ne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tao 8,822 October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 I have seen such theories in fanfics and the changelings is one of my none pony races so anything more about them would be a nice touch but Chrysalis raising Twilight? Little to far out a bit for my idea but I do think she does love her Hive and people as much as she can and shes a Queen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
