^ Well yes, you're right, they did interact then, but it was just so brief that it really didn't develop their relationship. It didn't really tell us anything new, about their friendship, nor was their screentime together long enough for us to learn anything new about them. Though Dragon Quest did develop Twilight, Rarity, and RD's relationship with Spike (the three ponies I find give Spike the most trouble), so I admire that. But Applejack and Fluttershy desperately need their relationship with Spike fleshed out. Fluttershy only interacted with Spike in the first episode, and Bridle Gossip, and that was it. You'd think that because she was so amazed by him in the first episode, they'd hang out the most, but they don't. And Applejack.... I have no clue what she thinks of spike. Seriously, when did they ever interact? Besides 1-2 lines, she barely says anything to him. That's just sad.
