The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

Ironically, bronies were expecting Spike to act like Rarity with the personal shrine along with a hair piece!!! Spike never took it that far. Hell I bet most expected him to be all manic depressive, which shows the writers are bad with his character and the most of us bronies are oblivious to it for some reason.

Spike’s actually in this episode! YAY!
 
But… don’t they DARE make him oblivious to Rarity’s crush!
 
May the “oblivious bumbling idiot-Spike” from Spike at Your Service forever rest in “peace”

Not to mention that they seem quite incapable of defining his personality. Sometimes he is snarky, intelligent and quite savvy. Other times he is cowardly, incompetent and immature.
 
I dont know, not even the CMC are like this.

Spike knows how the first dreamboat stallion experience went, and from what we know this Trenderhoof character is going to put Rarity on the backburner too. I can understand why he wouldn’t be worried. I don’t know we shall see.  
It would be nice if they gave Spike another female interest, but even simple character development and Spike seems like an impossible task for the writers.

Ahh, now i remember how the crush managed to help in saving Rarity in the Nightmare Rarity comic.
 
Yeah well, no. The crush has always been one sided, and Rarity has mostly ignored it until said episode. Its just… out of place.

But why have a crush on the first place? I understand the crush was never an important plot device in any episode, except (and it was like a 10% of the episode) The Secret of my Excess.
 
They are just… going to throw it out of the window just like that? Sounds like a big storyboard error/plothole in the making. That cant be right, not with the level of quality this writers have (except merry).

There’s been no “crush” moments for Spike this season, and if there’s none by the end of this episode I think there’s enough evidence to say that the staff has thrown it in the garbage.  
Finally! Someone that noticed!

No point in arguing about it now when we can argue about it after the episode.
 
After months of working for her, giving her things, and having an obvious crush on her, for us to still be at the phase where she’d do something like this right in front of him shows that shows no character development and is horrible of her… if he still has a crush on her.
 
If.
 
McCarthy has gone out of her way to post Tweets redacting anything that suggested a crush, calling them “two pals”. My guess is that they want to be done with anything that suggests feelings here. There’s been no “crush” moments for Spike this season, and if there’s none by the end of this episode I think there’s enough evidence to say that the staff has thrown it in the garbage.
 
Like I said, we can argue about it after the episode. I’m sure that the Spike Haters will have posted plenty of memes and images pronouncing the “Death of Sparity” where we can have a polite discussion. Have a good Friday.

We’ll have to wait until after the episode to know for sure. Right now though, I can’t help but think that it’s terrible of her to go on about her crush in front of Spike since she knows about how he feels about her, even if she doesn’t feel the same. I can’t imagine him being okay with that. Jealousy is one of his character traits after all. It all screams “bullshit” to me, like most of what they’ve done with him over the last two seasons.

Well, that’s it then, hey’ve killed off Spike’s crush on Rarity. Now they’ll have even less of reason to use him. We can’t have the dragon having any persistent character traits, can we?
