I'm a guy. I like My Little Pony. I don't like to talk about myself. Let's leave it at that.

From the moment they met, Spike has had a crush on Rarity. And for such a long time, it seemed that she reciprocated his feelings. But in a single moment, all of that is taken away from him. And in spite of all of his strength, Spike finds that there is something even a dragon is powerless to fight against:
Love.

NOTE: Although this story set after the events of Dovahkiin, no knowledge of that story is required to enjoy this piece.

Fookin fantastic mate, a great little story, would love to see more, but that's your call not mine

I was always a Sparity fan, and while this story tears me up inside, the way Spike handles losing her is amazingly well-written.

I strongly disagree with Spike's comments about true love, but this is still a great story. Here's hoping we see what becomes of the little dragon.

Pretty great story. I liked it. :heart:

excelent story, i really hope u have a sequel planed

This is one of the flimsiest story where Rarity hooks up with one of the Mane 6 and Spike is heartbroken I've ever read. Like... she says she was reluctant to engage in same sex relationships before, but because it was Applejack she accepts it. Even though there is no attraction on Rarity's end. Completely disregarding/discarding Spike, for no reason at all.

This sums it up:

Spike nodded slowly. “Yeah. I mean, I had my eye on Rarity for so long, and I worked so hard trying to get Rarity to like me… and then Applejack just sweeps her off her feet just like that. It isn’t fair. Doesn’t… doesn’t anything I did count? Why do I have to lose after coming so far? It… it isn’t… it’s not fair.” Spike’s voice took a much harsher tone on the last word- in response, a prominent crack appeared in the window across from him.

She looked to him. “Spike, that isn’t how it happened. You know that, don’t you?”

No, actually that's exactly what happened. Spike tried forever, then Applejack wins automatically all of a sudden, despite there being no indication that Rarity held feelings for her or even for a mare at all, and in fact denying she was particularly into it. Spike literally didn't count in this case, he was completely disregarded. Now if there was some other sort of justification, like Rarity knowing she could never feel those feelings for him for... his age, or his species, or that his slavish servitude would never inspire her, or even that she was very much in love with Applejack, then at least there would be something. But instead it's just this very callous discarding of his feelings, and deciding that anyone BUT him is worth a shot.

Why do I get the sudden urge of feeling that Spike's letters indicate an attempt of suicide?

You said this is set after Dovahkiin, so why is Spike that upset when Twilight already made a move on him and it shows they're married in the future... :applejackconfused:

4641957 I suppose I should have clarified. The story takes place after the Grand Galloping Gala, but before the scene two hundred years in the future.

Forced situation, Out of cannon. :facehoof: Think of the nature of the subjects in the story & keep true to who they are, :derpytongue2:

4641965 I realize that, I just thought the kiss Twilight gave him at the Gala indicated the start of a romantic relationship between the two as they were shown married later, so why would Spike be upset about Rarijack if he was already with Twilight. I guess his romance with Twi didn't really start until MUCH later. Also that Sweetie Belle thing confused me even more. :ajsleepy:

But don't get me wrong, a little confusing as it was, it was still a good story. Just love Twi always trying to keep Spike close. :twilightsmile:

Don't really like gayness:ajsleepy:

Then don't read mare on mare shipping?

This sent me on an intense feels trip...

First off... POOR SPIKE!!!
This has happened to me too!
I know the pain (except the girl left me for the guy instead of a girl, but you know what I mean)

Second... POOR SWEETIE BELLE!!!

This is like the whole scene where the Doctor says, "I don't want to go."

I'm sorry for rambling, it's just so moving!
This is going in my favorites, definitely.

PS: Is there a sequel where Sweetie Belle gets was Spike? If not, please, and thank you for this awesome feels trip.

A true knight, Poor Spike,, A gentledrake to the end.:twilightoops:

PONYVILLE NEWS LIMITED
Sweet Apple Acres burns to the ground
cause unknown, Investigation continues
Fire crews fighting 1400 acre brush fires
no end in sight.:applejackconfused::raritydespair:

Well aside from the fact that it was never expressed that Rarity is not a lesbian to Spike. I'd say it's a good story.

Sweetie, he's still on the rebound. Bad best pony... :twilightangry2:

Spike, you are a man! :moustache::moustache::moustache:

Needs to have a second chapter to see what happens...

So Applejack got a lady boner, kissed Rarity without permission, and then not only got away with it but also got the girl who didn't even like her, or mares, in the first place? And Rarity's doing it just because she's too nice? Wow. That's beyond messed up. And Spike just gets the "F*ck you and your feeling" boot and leaves Ponyville.

Damn. This story just leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.
