More pitfalls in Pinkie's master plan?

Clearly, the solution is to invite Spike. And then invite Applejack, because now there's a big hunky dragon-stud to look after her. Case closed!

First?

349568 Damn...

Looks like Rarity won't be joining the herd...unless of course Spike is that other male in the herd.

Also it looks like you'll have to give Spike wings since teenaged dragons grow wings...

I say Rarity, Applejack, and maybe Fluttershy wind up joining Spike's "herd," and the females of both herds have an understanding and enjoy semi-romantic relationships with each other. Or the herds just merge or something like that.

Wee, character development. Well done with both Spike and Rarity.

And I still say we'll end up with one large herd including Spike and Mac. Anything else would make Pinkie Pie sad, and that just can't happen.

349579 Really? You can't even leave me alone here? I don't care if you hated it, just keep it to yourself, because I am fucking sick of your goddamn whining.

Welp, now I don't have to read the story.

Wait... not read the story. NOT READ THE STORY? WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING?

Welp satsfaction at last (i skiped a lot of the none spike related stuff minus the first chapter cause frankly i don't think big mac makes a good fanfic charcter hes just not developed enough in the series but im glad i stuck to the hope spike wouldn't get fucked over as usual)

I can see 2 possible endings:

1. Spike gets Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rarity, goes off with them while Mac gets Rainbowdash, Pinkie Pie, and Twilight.

2. Spike gets added to the group that ends up consisting of everyone and its a giant harem.

But the story itself is amazingly well done, I'm loving the twists as well as the depth of each characters emotions.

Great work so far, extremely interesting twists, and a very well done characterization. Im on chapter 6 and I can't wait for another.

This story is funny as heck, and deserves to have more.

would love to see a picture of new spike, im kinda curious if he looks like I imagine XD, also great story sire, keep good at it

I'd rather like to see a picture of new Spike myself. Sadly my artistic talent is limited to stick figures, so unless someone with real talent is feeling generous...

Sad news: Real life is picking on me right now, to the point that I haven't even started the next chapter. Being between jobs is bad for one's writing time. I'll get back to the story when I can though.

Thank you to everyone who has commented, it's a nice uplifting moment to be able to know people are enjoying something I've done.

Looks like Spike's gonna get lucky very soon.
Nice balance sexy hijinx, romance, characterization and humor. Looking forward to the next chapter when you eventually get to it.

I FUCKEN LOVE THAT YOU DID NOT JUST MAKE RARITY HOOK UP WITH HIM! I LOVE THE WHOLE SHALLOW THING AND GENESTIY OF BALANCE THING!!

Y u no update me sad.

Crap, man, big hiatus right before the Spike/Rarity part!
ARRG!
I hope it continues.

Well, all in all, I'm gonna fave this one.

Hope to see more, but I gotta say certain people in this story should be more psychologically savvy. Namely:

* Celestia, Luna is not yet tires of these parties. You are a 1000+ year old politician, you should know better how ponies tick.
* Also, Spike is transforming only now because he's going through puberty, a mental part of it anyway. At the beginning, he was a baby dragon. Kids can have crushes, strong ones, and be infatuated, but they do not lust.

* Rarity, you've always been selfish, greedy and shallow. All that generosity and selflessness was always a visible conscious effort on your part to be better than that. Why are you acting like you forgot you've been working and fighting against those flaws for years.

Still, cool worldbuilding with the magical nature of dragons. Has a bit of nice fairy tale flavor to the otherwise somewhat mundane unicorn magic.

Hope this continues and your writing straits are over, I've enjoyed this story so far and would like to see where it goes.

Hope you find some time in your busy schedule to work more on this story. I really enjoy reading it.

That dissertation on the Element of Generosity...wow just wow I am impressed. Furthermore this is a story with mature bits not smut for smut's sake.

Characterization is very accurate. Good grammar and spelling and word use.

This is just very well written.

you sir have officially made. my. day. i mean i feel like i actually know spike better now and for this you deserve a.....

Each chapter just builds my disappointment. The story is good, and there are just so few really good herd stories out there. There's an odd realism to the way the characters go through the emotions to figure themselves and each other out. It get's me really excited to see if there will be two seperate herds or if Mac and Spike will be coaxed into 'sharing'. It's just such a shame that it's been years since the last update, likely meaning the writer just forgot to cancel.
