Description

Am I the only one who loves the idea of Spike’s relationship with Twilight and Shining’s parents? It’s never brought up in the show at all even though it is shown that the two of them raised him alongside their own children. I find it so heartwarming that they would open their home, their family, and their hearts to him despite more than likely not knowing a thing about dragons or how to take care of them. I imagine raising Spike was very much a learning experience for them because he is a completely different species. Despite being a dragon however, they deeply consider him their son, and he in return considers them his mother and father. It’s definitely something that I wish was explored a bit in the show.
Decided to do a sequel to “Spike’s Parents”. After embracing, the two scold him for running away.

That’s very nice.
Yeah, the show really dropped the ball in regards to Spike’s family connections. Sure they had an episode where he questioned his worth in the world and how he should be with his own kind (twice), but they never expressed the opposite with Celestia, or as of Sparkle’s Seven, Night Light and Velvet showing their concern for him.
It’s just painful to see something like Sparkle’s Seven having to play out where Spike has to literally chessmaster EVERY pony in canterlot JUST to get noticed and have a small iota of respect thrown his way.

Oh hamburgers!
He left because he thought he wasn’t welcome there because of his difference. But after seeing what the two did for him, he will never leave again. Spike knows his “parents” do love him.
This is a great idea. Spike’s relationship with the Sparkle parents definitely deserves more attentions. He actually lived with them for a long time after all. :D
