Rara


Rarity cosplayer, writer, and all-around amateur

What would life be like if a certain fashion-savvy filly had fallen in love at first sight with an older incarnation of everypony's favorite dragon? Well, it certainly would be exciting! Everything you thought you knew about unrequited love is turned on its head in this sweet little story about first love's follies.

Spike was too busy examining the purple scale *scales, right? If not then it would be 'a purple scale'.

Good story, like where it's going.

Hmm, this seems like an interesting idea. An alternative universe where Spike isn't a baby dragon, but grown up like the Mane 6, and Rarity falling for Spike is a nice idea.Though this does bring into question whether Spike feels the same way about Rarity as well or if he'll be oblivious about it.

Only one word for this LOL. or three letters.

As this Dusk Shine ficiton proved, such alternate universes normally don`t work out very well.

This first chapter is nice, laid out well enough to capture the eye of the reader and would work very well as a prologue. I would personally like to see where this would be heading. But keep in mind: Don`t go too much OOC with Spike and Rarity.

PS: I would like longer chapters, anything under 5k words is just so quickly read :twilightsheepish:

Nice take on the whole Spike and Rarity thing. Looking forward to more.

Fixed! Thanks:twilightsmile:
1353843
Well, their whole relationship dynamic is pretty much flipped. He sees her as basically a little sister, while she's trying to get his attention. He might also be in danger from getting a swelled head from all the attention:raritywink:
1353896 :yay: Glad you like it!
1353914 Don't worry! This is going to stay so in-character you'll be looking at their tonsils. (Get it? No? Oh... I'm not very good at jokes:twilightblush:) Sorry about the chapters though, I tend to write fairly short chapters for all my fics. It's a bad habit I'm trying to fix.
1353986 Thank you!:raritystarry:

1357714 Hmm, this should be interesting then. Hopefully he'll understand that she loves him and he'll feel the same way. What about the CMC though?

1358743
You'll have to wait and seeee!:raritywink: Not all stories have happy endings, and not all happy endings are predictable. As for the CMC, well, I'm not going to age-reverse the ENTIRE town, but I think that seeing the CMC as older sisters (not in Scootaloo's case, but you know what I mean) while keeping the same relationships will be interesting. For example, Sweetie Belle keeps trying to help but ultimately frustrates Rarity.

Thanks! It's awesome that you like it enough to bring these issues and observations up! It means a lot to an aspiring author:raritystarry:

Wait so all of the mane6 are young not just Rarity?

1364188
Yup! Re-read the part where I describe Twilight and the others as fillies:raritywink: Also, notice how her magic's only strong enough to lift ONE box? That's cause she's young! Think the ages the Mane 6 were, oh, right after they got their Cutie Marks.

:twilightsmile: This was pretty good! Color me interested.

1375424
Thank you!:raritystarry: I hope you like it as the story progresses!

Love your avater, by the way. :raritywink:

1378481 Well, I can't wait to read more.

And thanks! :pinkiehappy:

1378996
You may just get to before tonight:pinkiehappy:

1379063 Awesome :yay: I shall await with bated breath!

1379602
More is always better!:raritystarry:

At long last! Hopefully you'll update much sooner.

Also, is Nightmare Moon going to return like in S1 E1?

1379906
I probably won't get to updating very quickly until the end of October. :twilightblush: I'm in Iran right now, and I don't get back until the 17th or so. Then it's my birthday and Halloween... but after that, I should get back into the swing of things. It's just hard to balance school and update 3 different stories at once:raritydespair:

Well, this is a few years before Nightmare Moon. The events from the show haven't happened yet- basically, it matches up to about a few months or so after the Mane 6 get their cutie marks. The only actual differences between that universe and mine are that the CMC and Spike are older than the Mane 6.

1379922 Glad to know. I understand you can be busy, especially with the Season 3 premiere this november.

1379938
Tell me about it! Three of the best events in the year happening all in a row! (turning 18, Halloween, and the premiere) :rainbowkiss: eeeeeee!

I still can't wait for the premiere myself.

Simply [ i ] [ amazing / i ] !

I think you meant to type:

Simply [ i ] amazing [ / i ] !

It's going to be AMAAAAAZING! I'm going to have a viewing party with my little brother and my two friends (converted to pegasisters by yours truly:pinkiehappy:). I'm going to make chimicherrychangas and apple cider and other goodies:raritystarry:

1380028
Damn! There's always SOMETHING, isn't there? Thanks for catching that!:twilightsmile:

1380043 Yeah... it was kinda hard not to notice when the entire story was italicized after that error :derpytongue2:

1380096
Well now I just feel silly. At least you caught that pretty quick! This story seems to be my most popular, and I don't want to drive potential readers away with an over-italicized story.

Ha, Pinkie's still a bit loopy in this storyline of yours. :pinkiehappy:

Man, I cannot wait to see what happens When Rarity tries to get ready for the Date with Spike....:duck:

I do wonder whether or not Sweetie Belle will appear in this storyline of yours ? :unsuresweetie:

Please do keep up the good work upon such a tale like this. :raritywink:

1380699
I tried sooo hard to keep Pinkie in-character! I wasn't even planning for her to show up, she just does that sometimes.:pinkiehappy:
I don't actually plan ahead very much with this fic- the only story I have an actual plotline and notes for is Fall of the Alicorns, my baby:twilightsmile: Sweetie Belle will show up- read the rest of the comments for more!

Thank you soooooo much for the encouragement! It seriously means everything. This story wasn't even supposed to go anywhere, but when I saw that people liked it... well...:raritystarry:

1408124
Ohhh my gosh... *faints*
YOU, sir, have just made an boring night 20% better.:rainbowkiss:
You rock. I'm indescribably happy you like what I've written.:raritystarry:

I'm going to bed soon, before anything happens to my good mood.:twilightsmile:

1408217
Hee hee:pinkiehappy: Of couse, I could just be giddy. It's 1:30 and I just finished watching Interview With the Vampire and Ratatouille. It's a strange combo.:twilightblush:

Update!

Finally. now I await the next chapter.

1445304
Yep. I'm finally home, so hopefully updates will be more frequent, but I'm really sick right now, so we'll see.:pinkiesick:

1445326 Hope you get better soon then.

1445369
Thanks!:twilightsmile: In the meantime, I have four other fics that may tide you over. Ya never know.:moustache:

Aw, nice intro to how Shining Armor and Spike bonded with the young Twilight. :twilightsmile:

I cannot wait to see how Rarity Prepares for her "engagment" with Spike and Twilight.:duck:

1445957
I'm glad you liked it:twilightsmile: I wanted to show how Spike and Twi interact, and the "older brother" comparison was too good to pass up.
Rarity... well, let's just say she has plans.:raritywink:

Then again, things don't always turn out the way one expects.

Rarity, you should not have said that.

1451207
I know, right? It's like saying "What could possibly go wrong?" Then, before you know it, BOOM! Sugar ants.

Rarity: This day is going to be perfect.The kind of day of which I dreamed since I was small.

Spike: I though it was night...

Rarity: *Facehoof*

1451294
That is exactly how it would go. Spike has a tendancy to ruin the super-dramatic solos.:moustache:

So....no Sweetie Belle in this storyline ? :unsuresweetie:

Still, nice update and nice outlook on how Rarity got ready for the "Non-date." All this plus an appearance by Opal, who is stil a pain.

Nice update upon such a great story.:moustache:

1451641
Oh, Sweetie Belle's around.:pinkiehappy: yoooou'll seeeee!
And yes, Opal always has been and always will be a pain. I love cats and I still don't like her.

1451248 You really shouldn't involve the power of Murphy's Law, EVER.

Murphy's Law is the name of these occurrences, in case anyone wonders.

1451766
Yup! "Whatever CAN go wrong, WILL go wrong.":raritywink:
