Spike paused from rummaging through his cupboards to look behind him at Rainbow Dash. The mare in question was looking at him with an incredulous expression. "What do you mean 'what do I mean'? Do you actually eat this stuff?" Rainbow questioned, prodding the slice of bread that Spike had put on her plate. Spike looked from the bread to Rainbow Dash and then to the bread once more. Finally, he shrugged. "Looks like bread." His frown deepened. "Wait, you're not allergic to gluten or something?" "What? No!" Rainbow said, rolling her eyes dramatically. "I'm talking about the bread. It's white bread." Spike blinked twice before returning to the cupboard to see if he could find that jar of strawberry jelly he was looking for. "Yes, it's bread, Dash. Do you eat clouds over at your house or something?" "Do you know how much healthier wheat bread is for you?" she inquired. "And it tastes better too." At this, Spike turned around to raise his eyebrows at Rainbow. "Wait, you're complaining about the kind of bread I buy?" "Well if you're gonna buy lame bread like this, I'm not sure you and I can see each other anymore," she replied, a coy smile dancing across her lips. "You realize I've bought you your own toothbrush, your own towel, your own bar of soap and that shampoo that you like because you're over here so often, and now you want me to buy you wheat bread?" "What's wrong with wheat bread?" she demanded with a grin. "Well, it's inedible, but that's not what I was trying to say," he protested. "You got something against wheat bread, huh?" Rainbow said with a smirk, trotting over to thrust her snout in his face. "You've got some real nerve, buddy!" Spike groaned. "Fine, I'll buy wheat bread next time." "Don't think I'll be stopping by again if you forget," she added. "But only if you promise to stop stealing the duvet every time," Spike continued with a sly grin. A frown tugged at Rainbow's lips, but another glance at the bread on her plate made up her mind for her. "Fine," she said. "Deal."
