Well, I will admit it's a little...boring, but I hope some excitement's around the corner for my kind.

Do you guys have an exoskeleton?

(Funny. this particular question is a tough one to answer in character. No one ever referenced this. even in the show. So, I might have to pass on this one.)

That's cool.

Did Pharynx got to met Spike?

Expand  

(I'm hoping that my answer will become canon despite that it likely will be left unanswered, but what the heck...)

Yes, he did. At first, Pharynx was a little disappointed to see Spike as an "un-intimidating" young dragon. Still he gave Spike some respect for standing up for me to the Crystal Empire, even if it wasn't right away. Pharynx may not be particular fond of those he sees as weak, but he CAN respect any creature who stands up for those they care about.

Of course, we wouldn't want to harm the poor filly.

Thorax,

How's Pharynx and the Hive doing?

Expand  

(This has already been answered on page 1)

(Okay guys, Give me some more questions, especially ones involving Thorax's offscreen stay in the Crystal Empire. For a short while, he was listed under the Crystal Empire section list of Characters on TV Tropes underneath Sunburst before being moved to underneath "Other Locales" sometime after.)

That's nice that Pharynx gave Spike some respect.

Thorax.

This might be a bit personal, but have you done anything you regret? It can be either big or small. I mean, doing something that had a negative impact on your friends around you and you regretting that you made the decision.

 

[Wannabrony 11,640]

Do you ever change your form just for fun or because you're bored? If so, what do you usually turn into?  

[hopkey123 640]

Thorax, which Disney character would you describe yourself as, and 2. If you know anything about Pokemon, which would you think you'd be?

Ever stopped by Sugarcube Corner to partake in a delecasy from pinkie pie?

Well, when I decided to leave the Changeling Hive after the Canterlot Royal Wedding, I ended up leaving my brother Pharynx behind. My brother saw me as weak, and was hurt by my decision to run away from. He thought I didn't care about the Hive anymore. Of course, I just realized that I couldn't live with my kind anymore if it meant having to hurt Ponies. And that's not bringing up the Gay Changeling who didn't have a name at the time (Will Guide) and was secretly banished by Chrysalis behind my back before he could run away with me. At the time, I thought something terrible happened to him and had to set out on my own.  Of course I ended up re-uniting with the 2 of them.

A generic Crystal Pony which Spike named "Crystal Hoof" is my main form to change into, and although i don't need it anymore, I still transform from time to time.

1. Already answered this question, but I'll repeat it: Will told me that I'm like Stitch in that we're originally creatures of instinct that led to destruction and mayhem.

until we met a kind soul like Lilo and Spike.

 

2. Since we Changelings are known for copying other creatures, Will said we do remind him of the shape-shifting Ditto.

He even said another mischievous Pokemon capable of shape-shifting named Zorua resemble our old natural forms, especially my brother Pharynx.

Heya, Thorax! One question:

Do you have another brother who’s name is abdomen?

Not exactly my brother, but he was hatched from his egg around the same time as me!

Thorax, when Changelings transform, they're surrounded by what looks like some kind of magical flame. What does it feel like? Does it hurt?

Expand  

It's quick and painless once we're taught. It's not real fire.

C. Will's a special case being surround by Disney Magic Sparkle, so long before U. Will would even remember his Changeling half, he never realized he had the soul of a Changeling and thought it was transformation magic unique to him whenever he put on his Disney Performances.

How did you handle the crisis of the missing students and the impending threat of war? 

[Brainstorm 4,112]

Thorax,

It was nice to let Twilight know that You're aware that not every pony sees them the way others do.

But please keep in mind, Nieghsay hasn't been on the adventures that Twilight and her friends have been on, so he doesn't understand.

How well do you think Ocellous will do? And you think Spike will keep an eye on her?

[Matraxial Artemi 2,231]

Thorax, is your kingdom is full of majestic animals?

Keeping calm. While all the other leaders were quick to blame others (Even Ember, who taught me how to be assertive), I was the only one who didn't want to go to war after what my kind has been through.

Thank you about Twilight knowing. And yes, I was about to give Nieghsay a very stern talking to had Celestia not calmly stepped in to diffuse the angry mob against Neighsay.

Not really, it's mostly plants and a dreaded Maulwurf!

Expand  

Not really, like ponies, we normally don't wear clothes. And as for Changeling Will Guide having "red shorts and yellow shoes", that's just discolored parts of his body to matched his literal soulmate, Unicorn Will Guide.

Yes, Some can't in their natural forms. But it's fine, they can still transform if they needed.

Thorax,

Did you hear about Ocellus doing well at the school? 

[ggg-2 3,553]

Thorax, having lived there for some time after leaving the Hive and before returning and becoming King, would you say that the Crystal Empire is like a home away from home for you?

Hi thorax do you like pizza?
