Rainbow Dash and Spike have one thing in common: both are in love with each other's best friends. Spike takes it upon himself to help Rainbow find love with Twilight in return for help with Rarity. As the two learn more about each other in every failed attempt, they begin to fall for someone they'd never have expected to.
Eventual SpikeDash. Special thanks go to TalltalePony and Vexy for their help and advice. Written for the Rainbow Dash group's contest!

Interesting idea. Don't see a lot of SpiDash (RainbowSpike? Meh
)
3272023
Thanks! Their shipping group's called SpikeDash, so that's what I go with.
3272023 Me either. We need more shipping of this group.
I really like this idea; but this might get some Twidash fan super pissed.
Bring on the haters. 
I've already stroked your ego enough when I helped you.
But I'm gonna say it again: You're a natural writer.
I like you!
I eagerly await the next installment.
Comments increase a story's heat, so here's a comment: Comment.
3272088
Thanks, and I'm ready for 'em.
3272090
You're seriously too nice to me, but thanks again. I'll do my best to come up with a good next chapter (already have it planned in my head).
Appreciate all the help, though!
3272110
Haha, TP...
I'm not entirely sure what's going on by the summary. Is this intended to be Spike/Dash, or the other two ships? In particular, Twidash? Because I like me some Rainbowspike, but...
3272161
It starts off as TwiDash/Sparity, but gradually becomes SpikeDash.
The focus is the Rainbow/Spike relationship though.
I can't stand Maneshipping nor Sparity, so imagine me reading how this story will develop: full of delicious, blissful, trolling glee. I'll give it a chance, so. Plus, it's motherfucking SpikeDash
3272217
There will be many laughs to be shared, then. Also, thanks! Hope the story'll suit your fancy.
Love the pic! Really hoping this isn't a rushed clichéd romance fic. The story sounds like a good one from the description so I'm keeping my hopes up
Please continue, this is a great story
3272282
Thanks, put the cover together myself. Also, I'm taking things nice and slow with this story to ensure it feels natural. (Trying my best, anyway.)
3272299
Thank you! I appreciate the compliment.
This is cute! And any story with Spike shipping... AND a heterosexual pairing with Rainbow Dash earns a thumbs up and a fave.
3272359 You have good tastes, sir. Here, have a moustache.
pinkie.ponychan.net/chan/files/src/137988825940.jpg
huh, this looks interesting. I'll keep my eye on it.
Oh, this got me intrigued. A bit of "I scratch your back, you scratch mine" played by Spike.
Very clever my favorite baby dragon. 
The question is now if Rainbow Dash will be able to live up to her part of the bargain and help Spike when he tells Rainbow what he wants in return.
The paragraph arrangement here makes it difficult to tell who's speaking. Ideally, it should look like this...
3272088
My first thought when I read the discription, actually. But they're one of the biggest ships on FiMFiction so I think they can/should hande if we singe their mainsail a bit.
As for the story:
one can never have too much SpikeDash +(it's an original story idea as far as I'm aware +(you write good +(
NullPointerException)))Really going to enjoy to see where you're taking us, BD
3274209
It's already begun... At least, 9 dislikes and no reason given for 'em, so that's what I'm assuming they are. Also, thanks! It's my first time writing a story that focuses on Spike (and Rainbow Dash, really) so it's pretty new to me. I'll do my best to write a decent story, though.
3272676
Indeed, haha. I'm excited to write what happens next.
3272359
Thanks a lot! Really appreciate it.
3274093
I'll change that, thanks.
Spike have hard scales. But, I have looking for this ship.
I like this. I like this a lot.
already sounds like toradora, but less taiga, sounds interesting though
Interesting, I look forward to how you play this out. Its an old idea that's re-hashed into the MLP universe but I can see it working out if it's done well. Your writing is pretty decent. Needs a little bit of work, but you'll improve if you keep at it. Just be sure to keep them in character and everything will work out fine, it's possible and I'm rooting for you!
3277618
That anime was actually my inspiration for this story, but I didn't think anyone would catch it. Awesome!
3277621
Thanks a lot! With every story I try to step a little more out of my comfort zone style-wise, so I do hope to improve all-around with this story especially. I'll be sure to take your advice to heart!
3277618
Who're they?
3277718
Toradora is my favorite anime of all time, which features these two lovely characters:
i646.photobucket.com/albums/uu185/mimi_cute913/Tora%20Dora/tora-dora.jpg
I highly recommend you watch it. It actually made me cry toward the end, and it really is a gem among many anime. More information can be found here.
Gonna check this out at some point. The concept seems pretty interesting.
3277743
Thank you! Don't feel obligated to read it, but I'd really appreciate it if you did.
3277741
I know have to watch this when I finally get the free time to do so. It looks adorable.
Btw, good first chapter. I have high hopes for this fic.
3277741but, i've already watched and loved it, well...just have to watch it again then
After reading the description I immediately assume they
both fall for Applejackget drunk on delicious cider.3284333
How awesome would that be?
Heh... Not going to happen in this story. Has an "everyone" tag, see?
Seems like Toradora tbh
3285160
I've only written one chapter so far, so I have yet to break away from the anime (haven't had the chance as of yet). They haven't even started helping each other out yet, and it's not like Spike's going to be Rainbow's "dog", cook her food, or any of that stuff Ryuuji does for Taiga.
What I like about this fic is how much it fits the style of the show, lesbian shipping not withstanding!
A nice start.
But... Isn't RD's house in Cloudsdale? How would Spike meet her there?
3290100
Thank you! And yes, it very well is. That will be addressed in the next chapter, but thanks for noticing.
This chapter... Wow! And i thought the first chapter was good...Totally in love with this story already. Can't wait until the next chapter.
This has the greatest chapter name eva.
First chapter seemed rushed, with Rainbow giving no explanation about when and how her feelings started. However, I like where this is going after reading this second piece, the tea-spitting scene specifically. Overall, this fic maintains the humor and style of the show, so congratulations. Keep up the good work, and don't rush things.
3305379
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. (Makes me really happy to hear that you did!)
3305440
I just had to. Spike the Swagon deserves it.
3305925
Don't worry, an explanation will be given in due time. As far as that goes, it wasn't the right time or place for Rainbow to explain why she liked Twilight (being in a bush and all), and I figured putting that in the first chapter actually would rush things. I'm taking my time and having fun with this story, but thank you! I wanted this story to have a highlight in humor (especially towards the beginning), which is why it probably came off as rushed. Anyway, I appreciate the criticism and will do my best.
3305973 You make a good point. And don't misunderstand me, I didn't say the story was bad. Au contraire, I'm actually enjoying it since a lot of Spikeships are crap or abuse of OOCness (lol) with him or other characters. This, lesbianship aside, seems like something we could see on the show, specially with the humor load that you wisefully put in. I was slightly concerned about the plot rushing as a rocket, something that tends to happen too much in this kind of stories, but after reading your reply I'm quite satisfied.
I have faith on you and like how this is going, so please continue
Poor Spike, his first evening with Rarity, and it ends with disaster with him spitting out his tea over her, and also the CMC causing her to cut the evening short.
Well, let's see how Rainbow's first day with Twilight happens.
Wow... Spike can handle jumping into a pool of lava but Rarity's tea is too hot for his tongue? How hot does she make it!?
In all seriousness, don't worry about that. It's impossible to keep every fic canon when the show itself has such glaring inconsistencies and errors.
One thing I like here is that Rarity seems to be treating Spike very respectfully.
Spike gets too much abuse in the show, particularly from Rarity and Twilight. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how badly Rainbow Dash messes up her attempts to woo Twilight in the next chapter. 
So far, good job! You're capturing the comedic situations pretty well, and I love the fact that you're pacing the romance. Too many authors rush past it. Your characterization is pretty solid so far, so cud-dos for that! I do have one little thing though...
This seems uncharacteristic of the ponies in Ponyville. While Spike running around Ponyville might not be common, I don't think they would be in disbelief or disapproval. If anything, they might be concerned. Spike doesn't tend to run around for no reason, and usually its to get a message to Twilight from the Princess. I can also see it if he'd forgotten something he had to do, but I highly doubt that ponies would look down on him about it.
3321561
Thank you! I'm glad I'm doing well on those aspects.
As far as the "ponies looking down on him" part goes, they weren't doing it because of his running, but the fact that he'd put his finger in his mouth and stuck it up in the air like a weirdo (in their eyes). It wasn't meant to be a serious sort of disapproval, more like "I can't believe he just did that. Disgusting!" type of thing. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to write it that way, though.
3321608
Hmm... yeah, I still can't see them seeing that as abnormal. I mean, they deal with Pinkie Pie on a daily basis so...
3321621
You have a good point there. You win.
To be honest, I was sort of "on a roll" when I was writing this chapter, and sort of just stuck with what I was doing. That part felt right in my head, and then I really liked how I worded the sentence...
Just a combination of factors. Still, I'll keep that in mind so I don't make careless mistakes of that variety in the future.
3321639
Don't worry, it happens to the best of us!
It was a small thing that was out of place, but I thought I'd point it out. You seem to take well to constructive criticism and when I see things I like to point them out so it helps you develop as an author. I tend to fall into the same sort of pitfalls (going on a roll), but my editor tends to weed most of those out before it gets published.
