Beyond her Garden.....

Hello Glove :P I never would have guessed you could ship Spike with Carrot Top before... Let's see how this turns out...

Dragons, so cute and cuddly at first. Then they grow up. Oh, yeah. Oooh, ahhh, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming.

Never thought I'd see shipping between these two. (Like something a random number generator would come up with) However, this intro is bucking rock solid. I for one can't wait to see what happens next.

Keep going, I like it. for whatever my opinion is worth anyways.

GENIUS!!!

Potatoe

she ever had before.

Make that into: she had ever had before.
A very solid start, man. Can't wait for more chapters

And lowe the great potato appeared before me and said, "This story is da bomb diggity."

Carrot and Spike. I'll drink to that.

"Had" has always seemed odd to me, but thanks for pickin up that one. I'm trying to make sure this one's as error-free as possible.

Err, thanks for reading and enjoying so far! Sorry I decided to split it into three chapters, but hey, at least you guys have something to read while I'm workin' on more of it :)

Great start! this provided a solid foundation for the shipping, everything was explained from why she was into Spike, to when it happened, so kudos from me.

*Pounds fist on table* YOU SIR! WHAT IS THE BRILLIANCE!?!? *regains composure* ehem...I like this, carry on...

Spike x Carrot Top and i thought i was a shipping nut with the little guy

Good Show, EXO! I would be lying if I said that I was expecting this to be produced so fast. Impressive!

I know that a very important part of 'clop' is that it is structured. On top of being structured, it's plot needs structure, characters need structure, scenes need structure. I am so happy to see you touch on each of these in a mere 'clopfic'. I...I love it...! We, as fans/ followers appreciate everything you give to us (even if it's a bit of a tease :)). The same suit follows here.

Well, this and Beautification were both ones I wanted to make for a really long time (the past seven months), and I had always planned them out this way, so...happy to hear you like where I'm going with this

And yeah, I'm into the idea now, so I'm already workin on it

np bro. Can't wait for more. I've been out of work for over a month cause i cut off my finger. So ive been desperate for something to do besides drink and smoke pot. thank you.

I require more....

Haven't seen this paring before... And the story sounds very, very promissing.

Good show my friend. Will await for more chapters.

My interests has has started its climb let us wait and see if it will reach the peek.
Cool story bro!

Something tell's me Spike's into something good.

Im here to present a severe case of MOAR!

Two reasons:
1. I felt that Carrot Top (or "Golden Harvest" as she is known by her other name on occasion) didn't really get enough attention or characterization in fics and deserved a starring role. Not only that, but one in which I could explore her being in a "friends possibly leading into more than that" relationship which would be amplified by my assumed position of her life in Ponyville. Mainly, I needed a character who would be relatable and I could realistically write for in a relationship that shows taking a first step into new territory, with the added bonus of the opposite sex being both younger and of a different species.
2. I chose Spike because I have yet to write the guy in a romantic situation and thought it would be interesting and good for contrast. Not only that, but I feel as if Teenage Spike relationships in fics are either too simple (aged up just for clop purposes) or too detailed (spend far too much time beating around the bush, which Spike isn't known for doing in the first place). I wanted a middleground where I could fuss around with a slightly more grown, but still fairly youthful Spike that brings out the positive attributes of our star mare here (as you'll see in a later chapter).

So there ya go, those are the exact reasons, in full detail, as to why I chose to write a clopfic for these two. I like writing different things every time I put fingers to keyboard, so to speak, and this is something I wanted to try for a good while now. Hope that helped

1797126 There were other errors that I saw, but I'm too lazy and tired at the moment to go back and find them

Commenced read.

Interesting pairing.

Not al of aged Spike stories are about clop. There's also a huge amount of them that are "I wan't to be a sad Story", but they're just plain emo or stupid. Cuz how could anyone get over the fact that your friends died 500 (or more) fucking years ago and stop being all depressed about it?
You din't have to give (At least not to me) any explanation man. I mean, what's the whole purpose of writing fanfics? To bring to life what ever idea or wish we may have about certain show/game/movie we like. I'm never gonna question that.
What I can do and will if the chance is given, is mercilessly criticise you for how you execute such idea.
But I honestly don't think that's going to happen.

Origional pairing! Never seen this before. Good show so far though! Unique pairing that actually works is awesome. Have a cookie! :D

Yeah, I referred specifically to Teenaged Spike because full grown Spike and "ALL MY FRIENDS ARE DEAAAD" stories are a bit played out at this point.

And yeah, I hope y'all like this. So far it seems you're interested at least, which means that I can hit ya with the good stuff when the time comes

A well-written Spike shipfic in which he is paired with a mare he's never interacted with before? I'm on board.

1796851 Dude, that's the second time I've heard someone randomly reference a favorite movie of mine that rarely get referenced. High Five.

Couldn't help it, Regal Theatres has been pushing the trailer for Jurassic Park 3-D hard for a month now and it's getting a bit ingrained in the brain.

Hmm, there hasn't already been a crossover written about that yet, has there? (Oh who am I kidding, of course there has been)

This is pretty amazing so far. You're doing a brilliant job of portraying Carrot Top. Everything you've said about her just seems so right.
The way you write teenage Spike is pretty good too, and I can definitely picture him acting helpful and shy even as he ages.
The one major problem with any good Spike pairing, getting around the cannon Sparity. I'm quite interested to see how you do this, write on good sir, I'll be waiting for more.

Shipping Spike? I already like you.

Now, let's see what all the chatter is about...

A young dragon is interested in you. Do you
A) Ignore it and hope he moves on.
B) Take him out on a date.
C) Get him to come over and fuck him.
D) Get guards so he doesn't rape you in greed.
E) Tease him.
F) Other.

If you're hearing potatoes talk... then you need to shut down the computer and get some sleep. Because that's not supposed to happen.

ya' know what? I liked it! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and hope to hear more! here's a moustache. you've earned it

1804410 G) ALL OF THE ABOVE

1806836 what order and whats other?

1807028 hmm.. well, if I was Pinkie Pie I bet i could do it all at the same time and have 'other' be 'make cupcakes', but in CarrotTop's case, i guess she'll just have to go with 1 or 2. poor CarrotTop

To wooden toasters channel! For great music!

CarrotSpike?!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am very excited to read this!

1804360
Realistically (as if we'd ever play by THOSE rules) this would make her in her late 30's, possibly even 40 (because I age these mares at about mid-20's, typically), but you definitely got the cougar part smack on the money

And thanks, hopefully you'll enjoy it when I actually get a majority of the story posted instead of just an intro!

1807046 1804410
*cough*

this is great must keep reading.

Looking good, let me read more.

Writing style is way too fanciful for me.
