Spike has often felt hindered throughout his life, especially after moving to Ponyville. He took pride in being Twilight's number one assistant, but there were plenty of times where he felt like an errand boy. One who got into situations that required him being saved. A recent development has changed things however. Not to a grand scale, but it was still significant. And he loved it. So much that he needed to enjoy it. And the night was a perfect time for it.

This story is a sequel to Leading Causes

Twilight Sparkle has more than a little anxiety about Spike's upbringing. In the wake of the Molt and the Sludge fiasco, those anxieties are clearer and stronger than ever. Like any good caretaker, she took advantage of an opportunity to learn more about dragons, including their needs and, most importantly, their vulnerabilities.

What started as a casual conversation about death for Smolder spiraled out of control into a full-fledged princess freakout, one that she is in the middle of. When it becomes clear that her teachers are completely hopeless when it comes to dragons, it's up to her to take Spike under her wing and teach him what they can't, one lesson at a time.

After a surprising number of requests for a sequel to "Leading Causes", I finally came up with something of a quasi-anthology of Smolder's lessons to Spike. While I do have a fair number of ideas, expect sizable gaps between updates.

Rated for academic descriptions (but no depictions) of death, and possible future scenes of hunting and fishing at a level slightly too mature for an E rating. Warning tags may be added later if I, or any commenters, feel they're needed.

Greed, Lust, Wrath, Pride, Envy, Gluttony, and Sloth, the seven dragon's sins that Spike has to hold tight inside the back of his mind each day of his life in order to grow up as the best and most reliable dragon this world could have.

Unfortunately for him, his own expertise at keeping those sins at bay make it impossible for his friends to notice his daily struggles. That is until the day Rainbow Dash teased the dragon enough to pop a genius idea into the chaotic mind of Discord.

Note: Thanks to B_25 for his suggestions. I hope to improve my "showing" skills as the times goes on

After a new playthrough of ogres and oubliettes our favorite group of roleplaying friends finds out that the new rules are unfair because a member of the party is practically invincible.

A one shot fic which happens before the events of being a good dragon is no easy task

Thanks to Nightmare Darkness for helping me out with my grammar errors.

[GoldenVerse side fic.] After Raindrops brings up some unsettling facts about Spike, Twilight and Rarity are forced to take a look at themselves and their treatment of a young Drake who has been a major part of their life. For Twilight, it's the role of a mother who's taken for granted and ignored her son for most of his life. For Rarity, it's the treatment of a very special friend as free labor.

After their bout of introspection, they work to make it up to him, and grow themselves along the way. This is the Momma Twi, Sparity fic I mentioned in the comment section of "Getting Ready".
