Spike has faced many dangers as the right-hand dragon of Twilight Sparkle. He's been by her side from battling The Lord of Chaos through her marriage to Queen Chrysalis and beyond. What kind of danger could he possibly face when he gets ready to ask his friend Thorax if their friendship could become something more? The kind he might least expect!

Rated Teen for saucy dialogue, innuendo and naughty euphemisms.

I really enjoyed this story, I didn't expect chrysalis at all, and I like how everything seemed to have a happy ending of sorts.

Author, this is a good story, and I'm gonna re-read it several times more.

While not perfect, I think this was adorable! The awkward humor in this doesn't fall into the cringe category for me, that you've successfully navigated through to be funny in my book. Overall, I like this. Thanks for writing this.

Not understanding why there are so many downvotes here.
This was quite wholesome and nails the awkwardness of our youth.

Having suffeed an "interruption" like this during initial courtship I can sympathize. Don't worry spike. We've been together for 15 years! I'm sure you will be fine.

I've heard there have been people brigading most of the P&P stories to downvote them, but I don't know if that's true or not. Also, a few readers here will automatically downvote any romance involving Spike regardless as to his age in the story, because he resembled a minor for most of the cartoon (particularly if it's with somepony he knew as a teenager (e.g. Rarity, Thorax)).

I agree the downvote ratio on this one is unusually high, though. I haven't read it so I can't opine yet.

To the author - CrackedInkwell brought me here & saw this work featured in new stories like several hours ago!
love spike's design he looks hot😊 better than what the show did to him.

who's the artist do they have a DA account or was it on some random image site like Pinterest?

this ship will never die in my book!:heart: as i for one never liked sparity (but don't hate on people who do like or write fics about them) i'm glad he ended up with gabby, even though we didn't know about until said episode happened. interspecies relationships for the win:yay:

p.s: although i must point out you have two errors within your fic...first off 'that' is repeated twice in apart of spike's p.o.v, secondly you put a '' when the character wasn't speaking dialogue in throax's p.o.v. that's all:twilightsmile:

Thanks for the sweetness and compliments! I'm glad something I made could give y'all a happy.

I make all my own art images. It's a big part of why I don't post more on here. I keep poodling up new stories but I want to make a cover image for each one so I end up picking away at that on break at work off and on for the next week. :rainbowlaugh: I have a deviantart but haven't used it in years, mostly posting up on either furaffinity or tumblr. I know there's some feller or another who posts up my work on derpibooru. They never asked me if it was okay so that gets me pretty skeeved off but he has always credited me so I've just let it go. So long as I'm credited, I'm happy to have made somebody happy.

OO! Thank you also for the editorial notes there. I need to get in there and fix those little wooopsies. It's weird how you can read over something three or so times before you post it and STILL miss so much. :applecry: Looking back through, I think I even found a few more. Urf! :raritycry:

no problem:twilightsmile:

you're the artist, Wow! that's rare. i think only know of you & LightShieldtheunicorn who's a newbie to fimfiction,he's written a story but it's still in progress.

omg same here:raritystarry: i'm a visual artist i see the various images and songs (while listening to music on youtube meshing together perfectly. also imagine the Va's who had done the character saying those lines inside my head) get inspiration from movies, anime & fanfics while pointing out said reference in my author notes!

p.s: btw... i left a message on your user page read that one as well. Oh! give me a follow. only if you're comfortable doing that?

Yeah, the anti-queer folkes have been a pretty disheartening thing to see in a fandom supposedly built on the ideas of love and tolerance.

As for the Anti-Spike-Shipping folkes, I have seen a few of those goofballs around. Can't say as their logic holds much water, not that I've got the spoons to waste on bickering with folkes making a reach of that magnitude. *shrugs* Sounds like projection to me. Still, everyone needs a windmill to tilt at. Generally it looks like most of them knowingly disregard all context and try to use Spike's age in the majority of the program as an excuse for their own homophobia. Seems they think noone will call them out on their hate and bigotry if they put on airs of nobility, the old standard "Save the Children" rhetoric. I'd like to think that they were genuine, misguided all the same, but after looking around FImfic and seeing the number of hardcore porn stories featuring Spike with any of the mane six, with him still as a wee feller, and they get maybe a tenth of the downvotes this story got, yeah... I'm calling bullshit on their nonsense. That ain't right,

not that I've got the spoons to waste

I know that feel.

I don't know if you read my works, but this is related...
