  1. >You swallow hard.
  2.  
  3. “Okay, now before you kill me, let me explain why I did what I did. It's very simple. Ponies generate lots of love and positive emotions. We feed on love and positive emotions. We help them, they feed us. I understand you're still sore with them, but think about it logically. I was hoping to arrange a meeting with Princess White Horsie and one of her subjects and you and I. See? We even have the upper hand in case they try something!”
  4.  
  5. >”Except most unicorn foals have better control over magic than you do.”
  6. >Crap.
  7. >She has a point.
  8.  
  9. “I can make things float!”
  10.  
  11. >You levitate a rock as an example.
  12. >”Bravo. You can levitate a pebble.”
  13.  
  14. “I can levitate more than that thank you very much!”
  15.  
  16. >”Can you even transform?”
  17.  
  18. “...No.”
  19.  
  20. >She had you there.
  21. >”Then you have much to learn.”

  24.  
  25. >Days later.
  26. >Montage complete.
  27. >You're almost on par with Chrysalis in terms of magic.
  28. >It came easy, you're just slow apparently.
  29. >NOW she agreed to your plan.
  30. >Return to Canterlot looking like human.
  31. >Throw open doors.
  32.  
  33. “One week.”
  34.  
  35. >You declare.
  36.  
  37. “We'll meet in one week.”
  38.  
  39. >Princess White Horsie nods.
  40. >”Very well.”
  41. >Mission accomplished.
  42. >That was easy.
  43.  
  44. >One week.
  45. >You and Cheeselegs enter Everfree Forest.
  46. >Finally meet with White Horsie, who brought Purple Unicorn along for the ride.
  47. >You step forward.
  48. >Your plan, you do the talking.
  49.  
  50. “I believe we should do this slowly. Both sides will need time to adjust. We need a test group from the hive. I believe I'll leave that to Chrysalis.”
  51.  
  52. >You turn to her.
  53.  
  54. “Do you understand?”
  55.  
  56. >”I'll find ten or fifteen of them.”
  57. >She replies.
  58.  
  59. “Good. Now, we need a location. Not too out-of-the-way, but nowhere huge.”
  60.  
  61. >”There are a few locations we could try.” answered White Horsie. “First there's Baltomare. Then there's also Vanhoover to the north. Finally, we have Ponyville, home to Twilight and her friends.”
  62. >You know little about all three, although the names are familiar to you.
  63. >Vanhoover equals Vancouver, Canada.
  64. >Canada has weed and gay marriage.
  65. >While the second half doesn't worry you, the first does.
  66. >Changelings doing weed?
  67. >That might fuck up the hive mind.
  68. >Baltomare is this world's Baltimore.
  69. >A bit big, but that might help draw less attention to the changelings.
  70. >Last was Ponyville.
  71. >If Twilight lived there, she might use her sway to give the changelings a better chance.
