Love Meal hasn't always lived in Canterlot, he didn't even use to live in Equestria. Life started deep below the ground surrounded by darkness and filled with gnawing hunger. After daring to think for himself he is ejected from his hive and thrust alone into a land of ponies.

After living by himself trying to fit in among ponies for so long he was bound to change. He doesn't realize how deeply he has until one day he encounters a wild changeling.
