Honestly, the way the comic ended with Twilight not appreciating Spike until he tried to help her was what ultimately soured that comic for me. Like you wrote here, it's practically a confirmation that the relationship between the two was entirely focused on Twilight and what was good for her, and that she didn't treat Spike well until he wanted to help her.
A bit of a stretch that he would remember from when he was an infant.
I'm not sure how I like the idea that Spikes problems weren't actually emotional troubles with Twilight but something from the outside influencing him... but the story so far has still only claimed it was still a part of him and the only hint it might not be is in the description.
Also, a note... I think that that out of the chores Twilight gives Spike, the one he actually seems to like is cooking. He's never complained about it, takes extra pride in it, and even done it for himself when he's not doing chores.
But, I'm still looking forward to see how this story proceeds.
7427190 I guess it would be a bit of a stretch but, when I read the comic myself, I took it like he understood what she was saying for the most part and if he could remember something like that then I'm sure it would affect him growing up. Like you said, she only started to treat him better once he tried to help and that was only after she said those things.
I get that in the show Spike does love to cook, but I keep thinking its more because he needs to do it rather than does it for fun. By this I mean that Twilight herself can't cook or won't cook as stated in the prequel. With this I had the thought that having the need to make her happy was truly the only reason for Spike learning to cook much like everything else he does for her.
Hearing voices telling him to turn on someone for his own good? Calling it now, he ends up snapping like Luna when she became NMM. Seems student and teacher are more alike than they think...
This is great keep up the good work Mate.
Demure Signing Off.
poor spike this song fits him best
