Spike is frustrated with the fact that his life is pretty much ideal, and yet he still can't get whatever he wants, when he wants it, whether what he wants wants it or not. So he runs away because, just like every fanboy, he knows that's the only way to grow bipedal and cool.

Here we go.

Ohhhh, he didn't even capitalize the chapter.
This is gonna be good.
Yes! I liked this story before it was cool! As part of my reward for being an early liker, I'd like to demand a sequel depicting Rarity's wedding.
Or I'll accept a new chapter of the Sweetie Chronicles as well, yes?
So... I want to see the wedding night :D
I do love a happy ending, especially one with a novel framing device. Thank you for this, D.
I'm sorry, but I don't think you gave serious consideration to how much better than ever other character Spike is. He's literally the coolest dragon any of the canon characters have ever seen, there have been several episodes about him, and his and Rarity's love is clearly real and true and can never be broken, even if she filed a restraining order, which she never would because she's totally into him. He can tell. It's just one of the many amazing things about Spike.
My advice to you would be to stop bashing Spike and continue this as a harem fic where all of the mane six fall in love with him, along with Derpy except she's also a super-genius who designs a mech that's even bigger than a dragon, so Spike can fulfill his destiny of being the only character who matters in Equestria.
Otherwise, the fic was okay.

What, just the Mane Six and Derpy? I think that the Cutie Mark Crusaders and Starlight should also fall in love with Spike. And everypony else in Ponyville, male and female, should sigh after him but they're not kewl leet enough for Spike because Spike has a big giant robot and it's really big I mean
almost as bigas bigbigger than the mountain on which Canterlot stands! And every time he says everything everyone should gasp in awe and go "The Great Dragon has spoken!" And if we did this, only then would we properly appreciate the tiniest scale on the least worthy part of He Who Is The Great Dragon!Clearly a cunning plan hatched by Starlight (the not redeemed comunist/socialist/nazi/sjw) to curb Spike's greatness before he can stop her evil plans!
Best Spike runs away story ever!
Not that there's much competition...
And Rarity married a diamond dog? Wonder how long she took to housebreak him.
7084691 There are a few. According to the downvotes, it hit home at least twice tho.
7084176 and there we went.
7084212 Capitalizing is not for cool dragons.
7084223 7084233 You want to see Rarity marry a Diamond Dog and the aftermath that badly?
7084265 I aim to please. Or make fun of story cliches. Or both.
7084270 7084338 Not enough sapient life for Spike to hook up with.
7084457 If it helps Spike sleep better at night, sure.
But Spike is cool the way he already is.... as long as it's not a solo episode.
Fantastic! That was actually very amusing.
I like the bit about the diamond dog marrying Rarity, hehe
snoopy
To be more a more authentic Spike-runs-away experience you should have had bad grammar in one story or chapter title, or in the description, and then not change it even after it's been pointed out.
As someone who has seen several of these types of stories, this was pretty amusing to me.
I see someone was inspired by Hasbro's April fools pranks, but I think you might get in trouble for leaking the script for the first episode online.
Well Not was I hoping for So.....I'm going back to Never broken
*snerk*
I think the only "Spike leaves home" story I've ever seen that even looked any good (well, aside from this one) was The Descendant's Zenith (because, funnily enough, he understands the character and the reasons were... rather more complex), and that one is sadly unlikely to ever be finished. (Though one unlives in hope, TD, if you read this...)
Nice story, very funny. I agree that sometimes people go overboard on trying make spike cool. The best "cool" spikes I've seen came from ones that kept his character from the show but expanded it, like It Takes A Village, Children of a Lesser Dragon God Boy Whelp Thingy Guy, and Nyx's Family (author moved this one off site: http://archiveofourown.org/works/5449706/chapters/12596543).
So could someone explain at what point in the story it's was just Spike's vision of the future and not real, like is it just the time skip or the the whole " argument" of why Spike is leaving?
Looked like little more than Spike fan bashing at first, but I stopped frowning around the "wastelands" line. Good...it's only mocking that kind of Spike fan.
I Lol.
Well, that was unexpected.
And indeed Twi, you should know Starlight doesn't do stuff half-way. Well, except thinking her plans through. But realization never goes only partially!

Equestrian inches are huge!
By the way: Despite the post above, I honestly enjoyed this story. There really is a specific mould of Spike-Badass-Edge fics popping up now and again, ever since Rise, sharing an eerie amount of similarities.
After I read this, I instantly thought of the dialogue from the snickers commercial...
Spike has always had tons of potential as a character but people so often take it the wrong way.
That was fuckin fantastic.
Now I feel bad about myself.
Fantastic.
I loved it. The constant misdirection of the narrative kept the story engaging throughout, and I was surprised each time. And while it was a bit on the nose at times (referencing Kingdom Hearts?), it did help set the silly tone of the story.
Well done!
