Marble and Big Mac have been seeing each other every Hearth's Warming, but Big Mac's behaviour is strange this Hearth's Warming, especially when the Pie's are mentioned.

This story is for Blueninetales for Jinglemas 2022
They for a shipfic between Big Mac and Marble Pie and I did my best.

After Spike learns how Rarity feels, he is angry, upset and feels used. Spike feels like he can't fully open up to anyone about what happened. After having a dream where he spoke to Princess Luna, he ends up going to Canterlot to see her, as he remembered that Luna has helped him in the past. He needed to talk to someone and get it off his chest. After speaking with Luna and spending a few days in Canterlot with Luna, Spike starts to see the Princess of the night in a different light. Does this mean that he is over Rarity? Is this connection a strong friendship or something more?

TW: Eating Disorders and mentions of death

Spike's feelings for Rarity have grown stronger over the years. He feels like Rarity is just ignoring his feelings, for Spike, this feeling like rejection. This causes minor depression in the little dragon, but as the 'rejection' continues, it could lead to 'life-threatening depression.

Fluttershy makes a few appearances.
