Man Spike seems to be the one that always as to get the shit piled on him, I am hoping tho that with Spike being strong as he is, That once he works out all of his mental blocks he will grow much stronger in power and in strength of mind. Quill shows she is a caring sister (not until the shit hits the fan tho... hmm) by wanting to help him. But I feel tho once he works this all out his problems (hopefully while he is going to see hat is going on in town) that Quill will get jealous if he powers up alot when he finally gets a clear mind. Simply enough Spike is my fav character, he reminds me alot how I was when I was younger. That is why I know once he gets all the shit off of him and clears his mind and heart, He will be so much stronger that they wont know what to do with him lol.
Doubt, the thing that everyone has at some point or another. One shred of it can lay low to the greatest of men. When doubt has taken root you have only to options, to fight it with every fiber of your being for a better tomorrow or let it consume you. Spike has decided to fight against it and did a pretty good job of it in his dream, however he might be going about it wrong. He has to let go of his insecurities and completely accept his dragon heritage and his magic, only then will he reach his true potential.
4184122 Hey I am with you there buddy ( did you notice or is it just me, that it seems you and me are always some of the first to always comment on Spike stories lol) Anyway I want him to get past he worries and see the bad-ass drake he is meant to be. I know he can take his sister ( I know, I know. his sister again) I want him to show everyone that he isn't her follower or just some passive wimp. I want him to be able to stand up for himself, what he believes in, and fight for the one (or if we are lucky ones) he loves. He doesn't have to follow Quill whims to be there to protect her. he can be his own drake and still take care of his sister. But he cant do any of that if he let his doubts "water log" him. (see what i did there) lol.
4184156 Bad pun aside I think that Spike follows Quill around, in my opinion he is pretty much his own dragon but he has a lot of confidence issues with himself and wants to always help Quill and others due to his selfless nature and often thinks he isn't doing a good job. He's starting to get some confidence but years of self doubt is holding him back.
Diagnosis: Ghost Heart.
Symptoms: imbalance between physical development, mental development, and magical (if applicable) development. Often from doubt or misuse.
Treatment: a really big hug (figurately speaking ) and positive reinforcement in said patient, preferably from trusted loved ones
So we have a name for Spike's condition. And it's recurring. Obviously it's a prevailing issue.
This whole thing is a classic case of repeatedly whipping the poor dog, regardless of whether it's needed or not. That eventually makes the dog turn away from others, withdrawing from itself. And seriously it's time to stop whipping Spike--he's seen enough. And as we have see, there are solutions for it. Simply put--put away whatever it's holding him back, whether it's from a broken heart, being blamed for something that should have been forgiven, or shunning from others, and start acting like the man he can be. (I know it's a hell of a lot harder than it looks by a longshot.)
But it still asks the question: Why will Spike not accept it? The answer is right in his face! Embrace it!
Edit---I apologize for basically beating on a dead horse here, but seriously, there needs to be something going right for once in his existence. Now I know what all of you are thinking: He's learning his powers, he's getting bigger/stronger, he's understanding his strengths. All of that is true. However, he still feels that he's not seeing the improvement at all. Everypony else has seen how far he's come----the only creature that cannot see it is Spike himself. And it's not just in skills, his social life is in shambles as well. Try to look at it in his perspective: everypony is getting connected with someone else or otherwise accounted for. His dream/nightmare is essentially a animate idea or image that is stuck in there. and he's being sucked in. It's basically taking in all it takes for him to cope.
In so many words----yes he's afraid of his true self, but I also see that he's lonely. He's so lonely that it makes me weep for him.....
4184328 i say he fears the prospect of too much power like the greed day all that power would make him strong but at what cost
4195372 What plan or idea doesn't have at least one flaw to it?
So, this is what happens when I finally catch up!? A cliff hanger!? Okay, I guess I can wait.
