Oeh. This could be interesting. First chapter is short, but well written. Looking forward to the next.

ZE Pony said...

*inhale* yay...

This is interesting and i am going to read it C:

fireant said...

Not buying this one yet, simply too short.
Also, the INTRO SONG? Seriously? For real?

Anonymous said...

Maybe he has a chance with Rarity now? :P

pegaSpike said...

Oh hey I have a backstory now?

pegaSpike said...

@Anonymous

Hmm. I do have to wonder. As it goes with -me-, it's pegasus Spike dating Apple Bloom.

PonyStark said...

Dunno about the theme song in there. Seems a bit unnecessary. skimmed very quickly while in class and looks like a good read though. :)

Anonymous said...

The theme song is okay if your trying to make it exactly like an episode. I'm not sure if hes going for that yet.

Fire.Esper said...

Didn't read yet, but have some points just for the idea.

Anonymous said...

I've been waiting for this.

I hope the next chapter is longer, tho...

Anonymous said...

I lost it at the intro song, it's almost self-mocking

Anonymous said...

LOL!! THE INTRO SONG!
This is PURE GOLD!

Anonymous said...

I like what's there so far, but just one short opening chapter isn't enough.

In summary:
NEED MOAR.

Anonymous said...

great story, I love the idea you had.

Anonymous said...

ffffuuu- this story is too short, need MOAR

Anonymous said...

Must has MOAR

Anonymous said...

I really enjoyed it, but as stated by other bronies, MOAR!

Tristam said...

I can almost see this as an episode.

Anonymous said...

Can't wait for the next one. His cutie mark could be a little green flame or something though.

Anonymous said...

The pony-Spike's cutie mark could either be a quill and paper or a microphone (he seems to love announcing, as seen in "Fall Weather Friends" and "Suited for Success")

Anonymous said...

VERY cute! And in-character too! I hope to see more soon!

Dark Side of the World said...

I see this as a potential plot episode.

Inb4 shipping.

Twinkletail said...

hey, author here. just figured i'd reference the two most common comments.

1) the theme: i've seen a couple of other fics do this (and did it myself before, in a party cat-astrophe). i like doing it to denote the fact that i'm trying to go for a somewhat-realistic episode.

2) the length: hopefully gonna have the second part out tomorrow, but i just thought that was a good cutoff point.

glad y'all are enjoying it ^_^

The small horse joke made me laugh

probably more than I should have... Keep writing this!

Binky said...

I need more. Also, dammit Twilight. You. Are. A. Nerd. We. Do. Puns. C'mon.

ItsTheWhinyGuys said...

Hey, I'm liking this so far. I must agree, it's a bit short right now; I can't wait for the next part! Also, the theme song seems fine to me; it adds a certain touch.

Anonymous said...

you must continue or you will face the wrath of 4000 hooves.. in other words 1000 ponies stampede.

PS: Twi, leave the puns to Rainbow you nerd.

Must become a real ep Would be best thing ever

Anonymous said...

I'm surprised it took this long for Spike/Sweetie Belle to appear. Seeing that Spike has a crush on her older sister, you'd think that'd be more obvious.

Anonymous said...

Gentlemen, we are on high alert! This fic has reached... MAXIMUM D'AWWWWWW.

Anonymous said...

This was really cute! Great job with this.

Andrew said...

This was really good I can't help but hope we get a sequel because that would be absolutely rad!

Anonymous said...

Great so far. The second part was much better on length than the first. I am hoping it is not ending here though. This concept has way too much potential to stop now.

Jeqstream said...

Aaand it got adorable... just like I knew it would.

Anonymous said...

Is it over? If so, great place to end it. I really enjoyed it.


"Best game EVER, Midnight!" I laughed for real, that's hard to do.

Anonymous said...

Needs a shipping tag

Anonymous said...

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It does kind of seem like Sweetie Belle is the odd one out in the CMC, and it was very astute of you to notice that!

Bobcat said...

I'll never look at Sweetie Belle quite the same.

This was cute and funny. Is it complete now? I wouldn't mind seeing more from you, even if it isn't this.

Anonymous said...

this story was too short, I was hoping SparkStar gets more airtime than this.

Anonymous said...

Great story =)

Anonymous said...

he is no longer ... a pony whyyyyyy you could make so much longer story bot no it neet to be short omg.

btw. great story only a little bit short hoping for moor parts :D

Dark Side of the World said...

A. Awesome
B. Let's hope this gets to be an episode someday

...i should really get this cough checked out...

@Twinkle
wow, my cough is so bad it's making me forget to write half of my name

Anonymous said...

I like this story. It's...nice.

Brian said...

Great story so far. And the Spike/Sweetie Belle thing is surprisingly sweet. Usually ya see Spike get paired with Applebloom, but this makes a lot more sense.

Pseudo Faux said...

I approve of Sparkstar and the off shoot one offs this could take off into.

Shellsh0cker said...

Oh, good, so it's not over. I was going to say it seemed too short for an episode--clearly what you were going for, given the presence of the theme song--but if you've got some more coming up, great!

"Don't you just love that game we play where we pretend to forget each other's names?" was hilarious, as was Spike's follow-up. Twilight teasing Spike at the end of part 2 was awesome, and I loved that Spike was unaware Rarity and Sweetie Belle were sisters.

And yes, I d'aaaaawwwwwwwwwed so hard.

Anonymous said...

I am really liking the story but its a little odd that you have already included the letter to Celestia before the story is over...

Dave said...

I lawl'd.

ItsTheWhinyGuys said...

I liked the premise, and I liked the execution. Great story. Man, I wish this were an episode...

Twinkletail said...

@Anonymous
i had been thinking of omitting the letter part, but i couldn't think of a good moral to go with the way part three is going to go, and i wanted to make sure to get a letter in there.

Anonymous said...

Spike/Sweetie Belle?

Now that's a new one!

Any idea when the third chapter will be up?

Ddude28 said...

Usually I hate shipping, but when I read that Twilight understood and was playing along, I just lost it. I can't wait for the third chapter.

Sunlight Gleam said...

This story could end right there, but I see another chapter where Spike wants to continue to be a Pegasus and two possible endings. I love the stories where Spike is turned into a pony, (or a failed attempt)and it's great to see how he reacts. I hope there are more chapters.

The Ferret said...

It's a really cute idea but everyone seems to write twilight as kind of a b*tch moreso than she is in the show. i mean in the show she can be clueless and unthinkingly unkind but it often seems to be stretched to an extreme in fics.

still cute and a clever idea. Needs a better pic tho XD

Present Perfect said...

This was such a cute story! Twilight was a little ooc, and the ending was abrupt, but maybe "Sparkstar" will come visit Ponyville again...?

Anonymous said...

This is nice and smooth. I like it :).

Hanzo of the Salamander said...

♫♥I look forward to reading what happens next in your story♥♪

Jango-Fett said...

@Twinkletail
Loved the story and everything about it, just the fact that I could see the episode playing in my head as I read this was something I dong get from many fic's these days.

That being said I was wondering if you still had plans for part 3 ( and if so than any date ). If you dont reply within 3 weeks I'll assume that that's a no, then go kill myself =]

Multiversity said...

Okay. Why is there not more of this? It feels like it ended way too soon, though that's probably because I was ENJOYING IT SO MUCH. Write more!

BlackWidower said...

Se-quel! Se-quel! Se-quel! Se-quel!

Great story, but it feels like there's more to tell! Unless you're dead, in which case I understand why you wouldn't.

Bristlestream said...

That. Was. AWESOME!!!

daBomb619 said...

This is on FIMFiction now, and I'm pretty sure it should be marked as "Complete".

my computer won't let me read the spike fanfic!!!!!

Catsen Schultze said...

never mind I read it and it was awesome!

PikalaxALT said...

Shipping tag please? Part 2 looks an awful lot like Sweetiespike.

Nick Brony said...

I thought it was great, NICE work. :3

Zala Soothsayer said...

@PikalaxALT
I agree - adding the shipping tag makes lots of sense for this story.
