This story is a sequel to "Thanks, Twilight"
Soon after the episode Twilight Time, the Cutie Mark Crusaders tried to procure a gift for twilight to thank her for continuing Twilight Time, despite their poor judgment. They found out the hard way that Spike hadn't been completely honest when he told them Twilight's favorite dessert, and none of them were happy about it. Now they wish to express their 'gratitude' towards him... as soon as they figure out how.
As of 2015-8-14 this story has been revised.
My thanks to Cal for spending time reading through more than once and highlighting several areas for improvement during the revision.
Chapters (1)
I think Sweetie Belle is the one who might have a giant crush on Spike cause she's jealous on the matter that she never spend any time with Spike.
I enjoyed the story, but then I enjoy any story involving the CMC.
A cute follow-up to the original story. I have a bit of trouble with the idea that Spike doesn't understand sarcasm, given how snarky he can be, but I can roll with it for the sake of something fun like this. Sweet and positive... And I even appreciated the reassurance as to the source of the gelatin! Nicely done.

Oh but he does! It took me a bit to land on something I thought wouldn't go over everyone's head, but for the sake of everyone else, I'll explain the rest behind spoilers, because some people read more then the first three comments before the story (I may be one of them).
“You do know what sarcasm is, right?”
Spike replied with a flat tone. “No.”
“I thought so; ..."
Spike replies sarcastically, and Sweetie Belle picks up on it. This only makes it harder for Sweetie to understand how he missed it.
I'm glad that the rest of the story makes any misunderstanding okay, though, even if that's not quite what I aimed for.

It's not gelatin, it's Agar. Nonetheless, I'm glad that worked out.

Aha... I must have breezed past that.
This would have worked better as a second chapter to the original fic, I think; I wouldn't have liked that one at all if it hadn't been for this.
