This whole story may be subject to a minor/major rewrite and possibly some expansion.   "Oh please, don't paralyse me and do inappropriate things to me with your 3 feet long forked green tongue!" >The majestic, and somewhat terrifying, Changeling Queen stared back at you in disbelief >"My... what? Oh, it's you again." "Your tongue. The one you use to turn proud stallions like me into defenceless love-slaves." >"I... I... I don't really do-" >The Queen's entourage, consisting of half a dozen Changelings, now looked as confused as a pegasus in an institution of higher education >They probably hadn't expected to encounter somepony of your enormous genius, able to see right through their little game >Much less be ambushed by one "Don't play games with me, succubus! I'm here, and I know it all. You might as well get started." >"With what?" >She seemed to be somewhat slower than you would have imagined >Oh well, it would have been to much to ask for both a sharp look and a sharp wit "The seduction." >"Why would I... forget about it. How did you even get here?" >Her strong, spotless chitin looked like living metal the shine of the throne room's torches >You had waited in the heart of the hive for hours before she arrived >But it was all worth it now "Oh, it wasn't easy, but I've been planning. I know the way straight into the throne room of your hive,-" >You made a point of raising your voice and throwing your head backwards, in an attempt to further underline your point >If your heart hadn't been stolen by a certain green seductress, you were sure you could have had a career in acting "-so I'm too dangerous to be able to walk freely out of here!" >The Changelings, likely awestruck by your performance, stood in silence, as if they waited for somepony else to slay the silence >Finally, one Changeling (you obviously couldn't identify him, because with the sole exception of your heart's black ruler, all Changelings looked the same) spoke: >"Get lost." >You smiled >It seemed like your profound plot had confused even her brightest advisor "I only answer to royalty." >Mares love stallions with standards >It was once again the Queen's turn to speak: >"Well, then I royally command you to bugger off. I have important matters of state to discuss." >She was playing hard to get, a clear sign that she was smitten by your charm "Oh no. While I may be... easily... tempted, I'm not one to give in to threats. You might as well just paralyse me. Look, I'll bare my neck for you." >Good thing she was so pretty "With your poisonous fangs." >"My fangs aren't poisonous." >You make a mental note to update your anatomical hypotheses of a Changeling Queen with this shocking new discovery >Right here and now though, it was definitely a disappointment "Well, that's unexpected, but I can work with it. You just get going, and I'll pretend to be paralysed." >"And by that you mean I get started with my 'seduction'?" "Yes. I'd start with the tongue. I've got a bit of a thing for those." >"My '3 feet long forked green tongue'?" "Sure, unless you've got a better tongue somewhere?" >"My tongue isn't 3 feet long! It's not even green!-" >You had cracked her (metaphorically speaking) now, and her passion and excitement was seeping through >"-Where would I even have room for a 3 feet tongue?" >Now was your chance to astonish her with your thorough field-work "I've been meaning to ask you just that." >You begin to open one of your saddlebags "See, I have some anatomical drawings tha--" >"Please don't. Just leave." "But you need to seduce me, break me, and add me to your love-harem! I know too much! I could tell Celestia about the hive's location." >Alien eyes of the most intense, vibrant green stared at you >"I'm not going to seduce you." >You felt the flame of courage lessen in your bold chest >Maybe you hadn't been straightforward enough? "Not even a bit?" >"Never." >Rejection stung worse than the frostbite you had suffered in the long winter months spent observing the hive and following her every step >You had given your heart to your dark angel, but she had given it deep, white scars "So to be perfectly clear-" >You had to press yourself to make your voice stay calm, even though your emotions were storming on the inside "-there's no paralysis, no tongue, and no seduction." >"Completely correct." "Is there a harem? And if so, does it take volunteers?" >"No." >You were giving up >Not even your most elaborate scheme so far had worked out >Only one thing remained >To reveal everything >Were you truly this desperate? "Chrysalis... I-" >"The exit is on the far side of the room. Though I suspect you already know that." "I-" >"Just please leave us." "I love you."
