She threw 'em at the problem willy-nilly while she watched from a balcony and giggled adorably. Evil still cool.

@Chad: I like to think that they live in a hive. It's where they keep the Clutch of glowing eggs and stuff.

How did they ever lock the trope page of Lolita?

All I hope is that those scary things never come back. I hid under a table for a whole day.

@con I don't think any of her subjects were in any danger of actually being killed.

@Lurker probably, I'm just trying to justify the line "In my heart there is no room" I think it's because at least part of it is filled with care/love for her subjects

You mean the changelings Pip?

Don't make me fire Pinky's party cannon.

First, she cars for herself above anything, but depending on just HOW isect like they are, she may see the other changelings as extensions of herself.

Cold inside sounds better than dead inside to me.

If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".

You know, it's possible for someone to not make room in their heart for any kind of love. Like if they filled it up with greed or pride or ambition.

Are you not entertained? Is that not why you are here?

#175509 Enlong Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:42:15 PM from The Magitek Holyland

All the other changelings had minds of their own. And it wouldn't be a good impostor that couldn't think and react.

I have a message from another time...

Well I've sucessfully procrastinated all week on my big homework assignment. Time to leave the thread!

I've given some thought to the idea that they're like the formics.

@story: Bye! Good luck with your homework!

She could also have no room in her her heart because it is two sizes too small.

@ con: Oh, so that's what they're called.

EDIT (SEMI-NINJA): I like to think that the changeling relationship is a little like that of Ender's Game. I only read the first book, but I know that the bug-like things consider only the Queen to be of particular importance. That's just the system they work under. I really liked that book. I should read the sequels. They're supposed to be good.

not saying they didn't, just that even if they are there own individuals, the Queen still saw them as extensions of her herself above all else.

Limited thinking isn't necessarily independent will.

Maybe like splinter group that broke free from the hive queens control.

@ilse: Some of them are good. I'll leave it at that.

I think changelings can be good. I'm against the idea of an entire race that's Always Chaotic Evil, but I don't see any canon evidence that she's very nice.

#175523 ilsemmr Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:47:12 PM from Austin

@ con: Yeah... and I need to re-read the first one too. I read it a few years ago and I kind of remember it, but not many of the details. And yeah, I've heard none of the sequels are as good as the first one. But I remember both liking and hating Ender. If he stays like that in the other books, I think I will really enjoy it. Anyway, I just put it in my summer reading list ^^

@David. IIRC that is an OLD comic.

Apocalypse: Dirge Of Swans.

#175525 Seraphem Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:48:34 PM from Delamare

ummm Ilse, that not a good comparison. With the Formics, the Queen WAS the only entity, the workers were literally just mindless meat sacks the queen controlled. Only the Queen had that verse's version of a soul.

That was what started the war with humans, they didn't realize that each human was as unique as a Hive Queen, so when they first encountered some, they thought they were just workers and killed them to send a message to there queen. By the time they realized there mistake it was to late to try and make peace.
