A very early G5 story makes this exact joke, with the girls of the Mane 5 fighting over him for his affections.

7957047
Yeah I remember that artwork it's pretty funny

7957044
I'd say, a few embellishments aside, it is actually reasonably accurate.

.........yeah, pretty accurate; basically down right copy and paste personified G4/G5 community shippers

7957060
For those that indulge in shipping, anyway. That's one debate I stay away from. ()^_^

7957061
Yup....I basically step away from those ship wars.......to much toxicity, not enough reasoning.

7957051
Yep.

7957062
Personally I stick to IzzyScout, PippBlazer, and SproutDawn. Apologies to Zipp fans; I have no clue who to pair her with.

7957044 There was a lot of context and character growth in G4. Not every ship could work.

That is not the case in G5. Ponies in G5 have distinct quirks instead of really distinct personalities. As a consequence, you can basically ship anypony with anypony else.

So yes, I'd say that the information portrayed is pretty accurate.

You're free to ship whoever you want. No one has the right to judge you or criticize you.

7957071
Thanks.

7957071 I ship you with Earth-chan.

(She's not flat!)

7957044
Pretty accurate, but we're comparing cross-species relationships with a pony that's shipped with other ponies.

Thank you

You’re also forgetting the age factor. Because I’d say that’s more of a problem then species

7957044
Isnt spike a baby dragon? As in A CHILD?
tbh i see him working with any of the crusaders since they all look like of the same age

Tórax, starlight, luna, rarity, ember, Gabby and smolde....yea no they are all too old for him

7957187
True... I'm beginning to forget that Spike is defined as a baby dragon with all the crap he went through, especially since Sparky is more deserving for the title now.

7957196
Yeah, how exactly old Spike is is a can of worms I ain’t opening

If there's one thing I definitely don't miss from the heyday of the brony fandom it's the shipping drama.

7957044
VERY

7957090
We know

7957204
No argument from me on that one.
