Maternal Instinct is a Friendship is Magic fanfic written by MagicMan, revolving around Queen Chrysalis and her sole, physically disabled and mentally impaired daughter, Crown Princess Pupa.Chrysalis has never been what many would call the 'maternal type', even towards Pupa, whose adoration of her mother has no bounds. Preferring to swamp herself in the dire affairs of state, Chrysalis lets her crippled daughter be raised by her affectionate nanny. But one day, as the Changeling Kingdom's problems reach boiling point, the Queen's already short temper erupts and she must deal with the heartbreaking consequences...Maternal Instinct is a Hurt/Comfort Fic at heart which also explores changeling society and culture.Has a prequel, Pupa-Chan, dealing with Pupa and Chrysalis' first moment of bonding. | |

The Main Characters Do Everything: For once, averted. When Celestia hears that Chrysalis' young daughter is hospitalized with life-threatening injuries, instead of making Twilight solve the problem like she usually does, she hauls her own flanks down to the Changeling Kingdom, bringing her pet phoenix with her for her valuable healing tears. Lampshaded by Chrysalis during the brawl that ensues when she assumes Celestia's there to take over her kingdom: | |

Fat and Skinny: Chrysalis has gained a lot of weight since the attempted invasion of Canterlot, while her sister Danauria is skeletally thin. Apamea and Silkworm, two changeling aristocrats who have the misfortune to be in the path of Chrysalis and Celestia's fight while bathing in an onsen (hot spring). The author seems to like this trope. While in Castle Discord, Celestia accidentally comes across a pair of teenage mares, one a very fat unicorn and the other a very skinny pegasus, who are making out and wearing striped socks. | |

Death of a Child: A report by Chrysalis' ministers regarding the state of the Changeling Kingdom mentions a worrying increase in hatchling mortality rates. Almost all of Chrysalis' hatchlings died as children due to genetic defects and/or weakened immune systems caused by Royal Inbreeding, with Pupa being her last living child. | |

Parental Substitute: Cerci is more of a mother to Pupa than Chrysalis, most of the time. Chrysalis acknowledges as much. Prince Pincer, Chrysalis' uncle and probably her most competent advisor, appears to be one for her. At the very least, he is more fatherly to her than her own father, King Thorax. | |

Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_4832a3bb | comment |
Always Chaotic Evil: Averted. Most changelings in the story are shown to be ordinary citizens going about their lives, with little thought given to sucking the love out of others. The story describes the changelings as having many different eye and mane colours, while Chrysalis's royal guard are distinguished by their arctic blue eyes, just like the changelings seen on the show. Turns out that the invasion of Canterlot involved only the changelings' military forces, not their entire race. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: A few things are different than in the main story. In Pupa-chan, Cerci is a middle-aged mare called "Madame Cerci-san" who resembles Chrysalis. In Maternal Instinct, she loses the honorifics and is instead a young, pretty mare with a lavender mane, described as just old enough to have larvae of her own. Pupa is unable to walk, needs to be pushed around in a wheelchair, and has difficulty holding things with her hooves. In the main story, she's usually carried by Cerci, but can crawl (but not walk) to get around, as well as use her hooves and horn magic to handle objects, albeit clumsily. Maternal Instinct states that changelings don't feed on each others' love unless freely given. Here, it's presented as perfectly normal that a parent would absorb the love from their child. The place where the griffons live is referred to as "the griffons' colonies" instead of the Griffon Empire. | |

Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: Something of a regular occurrence for Chrysalis... Taken to the extreme after Pupa, looking for something to drink after dropping off a picture she drew as an apology, accidentally spills ink all over her mother's office. When Chrysalis, stressed out after a trying day, walks in and sees what happened, her response is to literally beat Pupa to within an inch of her life. | |

Dark Is Not Evil: The changelings may feed on love, and they look creepier than the pastel-coloured ponies, but that doesn't make them all inherently malicious. Many of the changeling people have been emigrating to Equestria in search of a better life, much to the Queen's fury. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: The changeling society in this story is based on early twentieth-century Imperial Japan, possibly in reference to Friendship is Magic's character designer Rebecca Dart's statement that she based Chrysalis's appearance on the works of manga artists Junko Mizuno and Hideshi Hino. The Griffon Empire is apparently Germany, going by their language and love of Zombie Apocalypse movies. Their leader's title is "Kaiser", and in Chapter 3, Chrysalis shows her generals a newspaper from the griffon lands that has the headline "Changeling Desertion Auf Rekordhoch" (which translates to "Changeling desertion at record high"). The griffon midwife who attended Pupa's birth also speaks with a German Funetik Aksent. | |

Friendly Enemy: It's one-sided, but Celestia is very polite and personable while interacting with Chrysalis... when they're not levelling city blocks in a fistfight between two superbeings, that is. | |

Zombie Apocalypse | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_60414102 | comment |
The Griffon Empire is apparently Germany, going by their language and love of Zombie Apocalypse movies. Their leader's title is "Kaiser", and in Chapter 3, Chrysalis shows her generals a newspaper from the griffon lands that has the headline "Changeling Desertion Auf Rekordhoch" (which translates to "Changeling desertion at record high"). The griffon midwife who attended Pupa's birth also speaks with a German Funetik Aksent. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: Chrysalis thinks that Cerci coddles Pupa too much and isn't hard enough on her. Although Cerci certainly loves Pupa and takes excellent care of her, she sometimes gives in to Pupa's wants more often than she probably should. For example, when Pupa wants to pick flowers from the royal garden and Cerci tells her no, Pupa's response is to cry loudly until her nanny gives her what she wants. | |

Foreign Culture Fetish: Chrysalis' sister Princess Danauria loves anything to do with foreign high-class culture, wearing imported perfumes from Equestria and the Griffon Kingdom and playing croquet (an Equestrian game) with the other nobles in her free time. The perfumes appear to be a fashion trend among the changeling aristocracy. | |

Slice of Life: The first five chapters show what changelings get up to when not invading other countries, committing such nefarious deeds as... taking walks in the garden and playing croquet. It isn't exactly Villains Out Shopping, since a lot of Chrysalis's daily routine involves trying to administrate her kingdom. Not to mention that most of the changelings here aren't villains, except arguably for the Queen herself. | |

Word of God states that while the reader is invited to sympathize with her, she shouldn't be regarded as a full-on misunderstood Woobie. Sure, there are signs of her being a Well-Intentioned Extremist, trying to keep her country fed and supplied for. Doesn't change the fact that she does some thoroughly heinous things, such as serving live ponies for breakfast, continuously neglecting her daughter's needs, and finally almost killing Pupa. | |

Deliberate Values Dissonance: The Changeling Kingdom is a society of love-sucking insectoids with elements of Feudal Japan, so this is a given. Most notably, indentured servitude is seen as an acceptable, even preferable alternative to a prison sentence. One of Chrysalis' hoofmaidens thinks it better to blame her shiner on her husband not liking her dress, rather than Pupa kicking her in the face when said hoofmaiden tied the princess' obi too tight. Nobody thinks twice about expressing displeasure by way of a slap across the face. | |

Abusive Parents: Chrysalis' father, King Thorax, considered her too worthless to even strike—until she botched her first military command, whereupon he informed her of how he thought and broke her nose. Chrysalis herself, although she didn't mean to be. She loves Pupa with all her heart, but she can't find the time to be with her daughter—and then she freaks out from stress and nearly kills the poor thing with her bare hooves. | |

The Ace: Chrysalis rather bitterly regards Celestia as one, for ruling over an idyllic kingdom filled with happy, well-fed subjects who universally adore her. Especially compared to Chrysalis herself, who is leading a crumbling nation facing disease, famine, crime, poverty, a massive wave of emigration due to poor living conditions, and an incoming Succession Crisis, due to centuries of Royal Inbreeding resulting in sickly heirs who probably won't live long enough to produce another generation, let alone inherit the throne. Chrysalis lampshades it herself: | |

Evil Overlord: Being one isn't always an easy job for Queen Chrysalis, whose attention is frequently taken up by the day-to-day business of simply running a kingdom. | |

Royally Screwed Up | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_b8f395f | comment |
Royally Screwed Up: Pupa's physical and mental deficiencies are the result of generations of inbreeding within the Roachanov family. Chrysalis herself is physically healthy (its stated by a doctor in a flashback she lucked out), but it's hinted that her violent temper and overall instability can be traced back to similar origins. | |

Berserk Button: Chrysalis hates being reminded that she's getting older. And failed to take over Canterlot. The former is irritating, the second throws her into a rage so powerful her own family doesn't bring it up. Princess Celestia proves to have near-infinite patience when trying to convince a belligerent Chrysalis to listen to her. The one thing that really sets her off? Chrysalis making an offhand comment implying that she sends her subjects to the moon whenever she feels like it. | |

Shout-Out | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: A feared ruler savagely beating their child in a fit of unbridled rage? That's a reference to Ivan the Terrible. During the fight between Celestia and Chrysalis, they knock over a cabbage merchant's stand, much to his indignation. The tears of Celestia's pet phoenix Philomena have healing powers. Chrysalis and Pupa's family name, Roachanov, is a nod to the name of the Russian royal family, Romanov. Chrysalis tortures a changeling general for failure and finishes with the line, "Apology accepted, General Antenaka." "No, Celestia. For the first time in my life, I am thinking clearly." | |

Royal Inbreeding | |
Maternal Instinct (MLP) (Fanfic) / int_d0bab7f5 | comment |
Royal Inbreeding: To the point that most changeling aristocrats are at least ugly. Their children are outright deformed, and mentally disabled on top of it. Chrysalis' children all died from massive infection due to the fact that their immune systems didn't work properly. Pupa is kept from becoming sick by being bundled up in several layers of clothing every time the weather turns less-than-perfect. | |

A God Am I: Downplayed, but Chrysalis's people refer to her as a 'kami', the Japanese term for all objects of reverence in the Shinto religion. This seems to be more of a general honorific reserved for the royal family than the Queen's own idea, though. | |

Easily Forgiven: Cerci smacks Chrysalis in the face after the Queen nearly beats Pupa to death. This should be a capital crime, however, Chrysalis knows what she did and feels that a punch in the face is the least she deserves. Rather than having Cerci killed, she gives her a Royal Pardon and promotes her to Head Nanny when all is said-and-done. | |
