Thanks to one of my closest friends having a changeling OC, I’ve been finding their older, drone designs to be oddly cuter despite being copy and paste from one another.
Sometimes I like to imagine g4 to be set in the 1930s-40s.
Of course if it really were like that Spike would probably be reading pulp fiction comics or novels. Maybe there would be parodies of John Carter, Tarzan or Popeye then.
And I guess if we go that far, when the Mane Six would be middle aged it would be in the 1950s, when Fallout Equestria would happen.
