The way I see it, Thorax here is arrogant just enough to balance Ember’s natural tendency to dominate. In case he behaves in his usual shy manner, Ember will just push him around without any respect, and the relationship is ruined. So it’s conscious and perfectly in-character, I believe.

I’ll tell you what’s sarcastic! “Oh, Storm King! Sorry about ambushing your soldiers and “storming” your castle! Let’s go frolicking in the woods together with our makeup and pretty dresses!”

I read the bottom line as “what a story”

@Daneasaur  
I agree with you. Embrax is supposed to be the best shipping, but the way this artist did was not what I wanted to see. Thorax is not supposed to be arrogant abd cocky, he’s supposed to be the nice, kind, and loving typo I know and love.

@Daneasaur  
Is that sarcasm? It’s hard to discern. XD

Terrible. Thorax is acting cocky and arrogant, in direct polarity to how he is supposed to be.
 
Artist failed and probably never even watched the episode.

Oh god yes. I could ship it hard if this was how their relationship works.

@soundtea  

Oh, I know. But I’m betting it’s more because they no longer need to than it is because they’ve completely lost the ability. And really, if the genetics to do so are still present in the parent, who knows what kind of things would be carried over into the offspring?

The new changelings don’t feed on love actually. Thorax stated that in the episode a few times.

За что ты так бедную драконечку? Этот гоможукоолень хуже коня-пидора, я так розачорован.

They’re going to have terrifying children. Incredibly strong, nigh invulnerable, fire breathing, shape-shifting children capable of feeding on emotion.

Honky Doodle Pony!

Ember’s pose is so … unf.  
Thorax kinda ruin it tho.

I hate this ship

I wish I could have Ember teach me how to be more assertive. ;)

I will end up using that Ember face as an avatar, sure enough.

And the dialogue within the image makes it distinctly clear what is happening.

Sex with a changeling - a king, no less - is very impressive XD

Thats right Thorax, smoothly handle that situation. :D
