Holy Mother of Celestia! What is with all the Spike x Rarity shipping? N. F. W!

1.  Spike is a baby, Rarity an adult.

2. Spike a reptile, Rarity a mammal.

3. Dragons are practically immortal, ponies have limited life spans.

4. From Rarity’s reactions, she sees Spike like a silly little kid and is there to use to do her hard work.

5. Rarity is interested in ponies (such as Trenderhoof).

I think it is a cutesy thing, but let’s face it. Twilight has more of a chance of a long-term relationship with Rarity than does Spike.

Do your shipping in your fanfic and fan art. But I think there’s a snowball’s chance in Tartarus that any Spike x Rarity shipping to be cannon.
