 A lot of fans will argue that the writers are planning to ship Fancy Pants and Rarity and that he is a much better ship. I will admit I would not be surprised if this became cannon as opposed to Sparity, but I would be disappointed. The first issue is the matter of devotion. Can we honestly imagine that Fancy Pants would let Rarity use him as a place to jab her pins into? Would fancy pants do whatever Rarity asked, all the while smiling as he did so? Secondly, does Fancy Pants ever display an interest in Rarity and vise versa? Other than the fact they hung out in Canterlot and Fancy Pants extended an olive branch to her, I don’t see much interaction between them. Some say that Fancy Pants is everything that Rarity wanted in Blueblood. Yet, I have seen no indication that either one harbors romantic feelings towards the other. Rarity seemed to like Fancy Pants for simply being courteous to her, whereas he was simply being a good host to a guest of Celestia. I really hope this relationship is not developed, as it would only break Spike’s heart into a million pieces. I know that Rarity can’t base her happiness on how Spike will feel; I would still feel horrible and heartbroken for Spike if Fancy Pants and Rarity ever were shipped.
