Description
I’m certain people noticed how absurdly thin Sunny is compared to other earth ponies and even unicorns, right?

Looking back, it wasn’t a comedy to begin with.
Interesting.
You beat me to it by a full month.
Well, I don’t know your sister at all, and know you only through your online postings on this subject, so you would know infinitely better than me if that is sufficient or not!
Only my sister has.
I forgot to say: Did you get the go-ahead from your friends/whatever who know you by name to be engaging with images as downbeat on this subject as this one and the ones you posted links to?

Spike is a really interesting character that people tend to overlook. If I had to admit, he’s my favorite character out of any MLP gen.
Hmmmm… let me see if I can explain it…
Those sound very much like sources of stress he could plausibly have and rationalizations that he could make if he had an eating disorder.
I’m still not sold on making it fit his canon portrayal.
Then again…
((If image doesn’t show, go to https://www.tumblr.com/ddemotivators/search/ninja , then scroll down until you see “Undead Steampunk Nazi Ninja”.))
A terrible idea in summary can be a MASTERPEICE in execution.
Edited because: Added way to find image if it breaks & a brief desc of the character.
Being a dragon in an all pony society must feel incredibly isolating. Spike often gets left behind, and in the early seasons he didn’t really like his draconic nature that much and always tried to be more like a pony. I could also see him becoming terribly afraid of getting super greedy again, turning huge and destroying the entire town and the ponies that he loves, so he would try to “control his greed” and with time it would spiral into feeling like he doesn’t even deserve to eat. Spike also canonically has abandonment issues and he knows that ponies are afraid of dragons, so he might feel the need to compensate for his nature and be seen as “the one good dragon” by being as selfless and helpful as he can be. I could definitely imagine him developing some sort of an eating disorder, maybe bullimia.

At first I tried to pass it off as a joke.
I always wanted to tell a story like this.
I’ve drawn multiple concepts of Spike and Scootaloo going through it.
When I saw that someone mentioned how Sunny’s legs were thinner than the other ponies in TYT, I felt like I had a chance. When people became intrigued, I realized that I could actually tell this story.
Ehh, idk.
🤷
Pretty sure it was never meant to be comedy.
👏
👍
Ironically, the ONLY part of this that jumps out at me as even arguably an error is the lack of capitalization and punctuation on the line where you were apologizing.
