Damnit, Ace, now I can't keep myself from imagining Chrysalis running a theatre troupe that serves as a brothel alongside.

Thanks, man. XD

Can you think inside the chimney?
Their offspring could literally be anything, considering the fact that both of them are shapeshifters.

This naughty talk pleases me.

Interesting how all Big Bads are shapeshifters
Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.
Nightmare Moon and Discord weren't shapeshifters. They just have abilities that also happen to let them change their form. There's a difference.
...right?
Mr. Blue, you did it right
I don't think the brothel idea would work, since they'd still end up draining their victims and word would get out.
If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".
I wonder if a Changeling who didn't believe in the predatory approach could ever find a pony who could truly love him? I figure it would be pretty damn hard for one to overcome the stigma of their... dietary needs, and there's always the question of if he truly is good, or just wants a stable meal. And of course, the changeling faces the temptation of throwing away that conviction and going back to the easy model of taking a pony's place.
It seems to be that old problem: good is so very hard, but evil is easy.

Yeah, basically everything about this show is badass.

@Story: If they were popular enough, they could take only a little from each client - and since physical contact isn't important, they could probably get a fairly good yield from a packed house of people watching a burlesque. Sure, it wouldn't be pure love energy, but it would be better than being ostracized.
@Enlong: That's essentially Thomas from
The Dresden Files. The model we're approaching for Changelings appears to be White Court Vampires, except without the physical aspect being necessary.

I still think that Windigoes were a creation of Discord's. Like, he began the species and let them run wild, spreading their own brand of chaos.

I figured there was something like that out there. I think it could be a very good story, if it was done well. The whole thing seems to be "moral vampire" + "
Who could ever love a beast?"

^My guess is that they arose from the natural chaos of the wilderness. In a way that still makes them Discord's creations, but I doubt he actually sat down and designed them.
