Malinter 3,064 September 3, 2014 Share September 3, 2014 instant mail. Plus he does have a limit on how much mail he can send without being ill. Derpy's job is safe.

yeet 2,027 September 3, 2014 Share September 3, 2014 He only sends letters to the princess, and only receives letters from her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverStarApple 849 September 3, 2014 Share September 3, 2014 Because he's only a Dragon. It's not like he could get a better job. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was akin to a slow death. If I must live as I did before then... -Lelouch, Code Geass - My NEW DeviantART: http://SilverStarApple.deviantart.com/Want to make money for being an AWESOME PONY? https://www.tsu.co/Epsilon725 My fanfic, starring Silver Star Apple: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/224996/the-shining-silver-star-of-the-apple-family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cwanky 17,650 September 3, 2014 Share September 3, 2014 Well his magic fire is instantaneous, Super express mail. Also considering that the mail service has a less than clean record with guys like this: Not to mention the delivery service's own questionable service hiring a clumsy error prone buffoon : I think its more than wise of Celestia to err on the side of caution. After all, it is national security we're talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Literally Snails 2,307 September 3, 2014 Share September 3, 2014 Because he has to feel useful somehow. If someone finds out that Twilight could easily send the letters herself with magic, they'll write him off the show!

sweetolebob18 728 August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 Well, in Dragon Quest, the other Dragons seem to recognize what he is doing. This seems to imply that sending things by Dragon fire is a racial ability. That is, Celestia just took advantage of his natural abilities to use him as a fax machine.

Stuffy Hooves 143 August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 He only sends letters to the princess, and only receives letters from her. Well.. Spike was about to send a letter to Luna on the last episode. there wasn't any note to celestia to pass it onto luna.. so in theory spike can send it to anyone.. or at least alicorns 1 "Courage is not a lack of fears, but the will to face them" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ochre_Dust 329 August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 @, I theorize that Spike's unique breath is a result of his being hatched by Twilight's magical surge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,980 August 25, 2015 Share August 25, 2015 Well, in Dragon Quest, the other Dragons seem to recognize what he is doing. This seems to imply that sending things by Dragon fire is a racial ability. That is, Celestia just took advantage of his natural abilities to use him as a fax machine. Is this a thing? I actually don,t remember this but it sounds like a proper explanation. I never really understood why Spike can burp of letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider float 2,539 August 26, 2015 Share August 26, 2015 (edited) It has to be the most random ability I've ever seen. Burn a letter to send it to Celestia, burp it out to bring a message from her. But now that you mentioned it I have a theory. Spike is used as a mailbox for confidential information passed between Celestia and Twilight. Twilight's learnt material was important and should not be leaked into other ears but only to Celestia, Twilight and the mane six.

Unlikeable Pony 2,700 August 26, 2015 Share August 26, 2015 Its a cool ability. Honestly, its a fun and unique take on magical corrospondence, it makes spike useful to the group, and its good for gags.I think its a nice fit for him and allows for Dragons to have a "magic" that seems unique, yeah? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyNamedEarl 1,332 August 26, 2015 Share August 26, 2015 Because they needed a way to instant message Celestia and that's the way the writers thought of.

Raritas 6,820 August 26, 2015 Share August 26, 2015 Spike was born with the mail slave DLC "Sometimes I wish I could imagine myself 10 years from now, out of college, living life without boundaries. But, at the end of the day, it's just a step closer to the future. The future tends to unfold as it should... well, at least I think it does." - Kitty0706 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
