And then there's this asshole.

When Twilight is called away for yet another dangerous adventure, Spike refuses to be left behind again. After all, he's a dragon, isn't he? The most mighty and fearsome race of creature in all the land! Why should he have to stay home and fret while Twilight risks herself to save Equestria?


Inspired by the cover image which was drawn by the very talented dm29. I definitely recommend checking out his work.

I love these simple vignettes between these two. The relationship between Spike and Twilight is the most engaging one in the series, and that is because of the little moments that they share in canon. Sadly, I think that something as direct and powerful as what you've captured in these few words won't be a part of the season premiere but, by God, it should be. Change as vast as what has happened to Twilight sweeps up all around her, and it will have affected Spike more than most. I can't help but think that this story will somehow play in my mind during the commercial break when Twilight leaves him behind to go off on the adventure that the animatics showed us she is going on. Well done indeed.:twilightsmile:

I really didn't enjoy this.
Good writing, but the plot is just bad.

Twilight doing another world saving.
Spike worries.
"Twilight can I co-"
"NO"
Friendship stuff happens.
MY LITTLE PONYYYYYY

Good writing, really, the plot could be better.

...I'm sorry, but I gotta agree with this guy. The writing is good, great even. But considering the fact that A.) he IS a flipping dragon and has taken more abuse at home with Twilight around then I doubt any Griffin Delegation would be able to bring to bear. B.) Twilight's panic attacks are something Spike has EXTENSIVE experience averting or calming her down from, and makes a great confidant and scribe and finally, C.) ...Crystal. Bucking. Empire. ...honestly, after that, short of Tirek Spike's got the best survivability of any of the Main 6 against most foes. I get that Twilight wants to protect him, but all things considered, she also needs to know he needs life experience beyond librarian, or he'll be gone even longer and further when he finally DOES age enough that she can't coop him up anymore. Or WORSE, he's under-prepared completely for the outside world and something WILL happen to him. In short...I'm sorry, but in this case, I just can't agree with Twilight logic, or that Spike just let's this situation stand.

Like I said nice writing, but was hoping for more character development over fluff.

5489499 completely agree with you, spikes a damn dragon, dragons practically don't age, nothing but tremendous amount of force can't penetrate their scales, again fireproof and breaths fire, even if he's a baby he's still will be a formidable fighter even without experience, I have no doubt that if someone or thing hurt twilight he'd give into his instincts which could have dire consequences for whoever he's cross with, and another thing his argument he used is perfectly logical, he's more mature than prob half of the population and tbh most of the mane 6 as well, you never know what happened to him while he was with celestia and twilight during their stay as students to the princess. His more loyal to twilight then dash and she's the element of loyalty, another thing I'm pretty sure the griffons would know better than attacking a dragon and his family, I know I'd think twice if a dragons involved, you never know a full grown dragon could hear that they hurt a hatchling and they would want revenge, I believe dragons as old ones not like the teens or the ones who give into greed, they'd be furious and the griffins will prob get roasted, I just don't like it when spikes portrayed as a schmuck the story was good and all but I just don't like spike being down played.

Pretty sure that Twilight's thinking that all of Spike's dragonny abilities shown thus far wouldn't help him when the ship capsizes in the middle of the ocean. As stated, he's a dragon... not a Siren.

5487825 Thank you, I'm a fan of your work and it means a lot that you enjoyed this. I also really enjoy Spike and Twilight's relationship, which to me really feels more real than any other shown canonically. Equestria Girls(I'm not sure what your opinion of it was, but regardless) did a great job showing how they really feel and act with each other.

Thank you for the compliment! I wish you the best with this work and your future pieces.:twilightsmile:

Twilight said a number of things that I would've loved hearing from her, but before those passages came, the story already had my mind buzzing over how much I hate it when the mane six take off on an excursion and leave him behind. He is more capable of handling danger than most of them. Fluttershy is the one who needs to stay behind more often.

Very, very nice! Fine work indeed.

I reviewed this story!
