Shadow Chaser 633 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 After Spike's ridiculously large crush on Rarity I think it would come off as a bit creepy. I mean, really, the angle of "She's not interested? Date little sister." is, to me, one of the most intensely douchey things a man (or dragon) can do. 3 "The dead don't talk.

Silverwisp the Bard 2,354 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 HERESY!!! ...ahem, I would'nt particular like that, seeing as Spike is about 16 (Twilight's age minus the age she enrolled in Celestia's school) and Sweetybell is still in elementary school... I prefer to think, he was just dancing with her because they were groomsdragon and flower filly.

My little pwny 1,392 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 I've thought of this before. It makes a whole lot more sense than going for Rarity. But after it has been established that Spike likes Rarity, I would have to agree with Shadow Chaser that it would be a creepy thing. 5 See you November 8th, 2014! http://mlpforums.com/topic/32494-important-announcement-of-mine-please-read-the-whole-thing/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas 2,874 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 All we have this far is a measely 1 second of footage, but there's a lot to be speculated. For instance, another picture was of Rarity “hangin’ out” with Fancypants, perhaps a new canon shipping couple? In any case, I'm assuming Spike has probably accepted the fact, and has probably “moved down” to Sweetie Belle. The age group shouldn't be that awkward, they're about the same age probably. Sweetie and Rarity are sisters, so that should be alright. 1 My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012. Where that journey is headed now, who knows...

Akemi Homura 7,682 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 They just danced... that doesn't mean they're interested in each other. Besides, I still like to believe that Spike's mindset is entirely fixated on Rarity so much that it's blossoming into something more than a simple crush. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't, but most think that the cmc are 8-10 and that the mane six are 16-20. Twilight was about as old as the cmc when spike hatched. So spike is pretty close in age to Sweetiebelle.

So spike is pretty close in age to Sweetiebelle. That makes since. He said spike was 16. Don't know he got that number. Maybe Sweetie Belle could get interested in Spike. That way it wouldn't be weird because Spike already likes Rarity. Eventually she might win him over Rarity idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfinityWhale 771 June 20, 2012 Share June 20, 2012 I don't think the age difference is quite so significant, since twilight was at least 6 or 8 when she was accepted, and therefore Spike was born, and in any cause spike is going to outlive her by several millenia anyhow. It's too soon to tell, but I think Spike/Rarity is much more likely, especially since she can keep his more dragon-like urges under control, like in "Secret of My Excess". Of course, we have almost no knowledge of dragon physiology, meaning that Spike could be completely mature or a 6-year old in terms of mental age.

So spike is pretty close in age to Sweetiebelle. Okay, with those numbers I'd be okay with it from an age standpoint but I still think it would come off as rather.. douchey of Spike. Episode idea: Rarity confronts Spike about his fawning over her. He is distraught and tries to be alone to think about it. Sweetie Belle happens upon him and cheers him up and he subsequently falls for her. Once Rarity finds out, she gets extremely jealous of the attention Sweetie is being given and wishes to have Spike back. Sweetie realizes this and, for the sake of her sister, convinces/tricks Spike into loving Rarity again. Dear Princess Celestia, today I learned how much it hurts to be ignored by a pony (or dragon) you care deeply about and how much you can hurt them without you realizing it. I realize now that I need to keep everyone's feelings on my mind with the actions I take and try to give them all proper attention. BAM! There it is. Make it happen, Hasbro. 1 "The dead don't talk.

That's kind of ignoring the nasty implications of such a plot-line. Again, the Mane 6 are in a different age-group than the CMC, and the producers are eventually going to have to stick Spike in one of those two groups, regardless of weird dragon biology. With an age difference of about 6-8 years (most common numbers I'm seeing), Spike is going to be stuck with one or the other.

With an age difference of about 6-8 years (most common numbers I'm seeing), Spike is going to be stuck with one or the other. Well, I'm not saying it has to be a full blown relationship. Just some simple swooning over how cute she is. Maybe Sweetie could sing him a song and that's why he falls for her. And while I think Spike has to stick with the Mane 6 there is the age difference. He is seen as a bit of a child in their eyes. Plus, if Spike was hatched when Twilight was 10 and it's been 10 years since then and most people assume the CMC are 10-ish. Then the age difference between Spike and Sweetie is no big deal as they're about the same age. Upon thinking about this, it has potential for a one episode story. Obviously, my holes would need to be patched. Edited June 20, 2012 by Shadow Chaser "The dead don't talk.

You can't completely fill in a back story or give all the info on a character at once. It leave no wiggle room. Besides, it's a cartoon and the creators probably don't think that deeply into it. 1 "The dead don't talk.
