Or you could just stay a bonsai dragon forever and never grow past infancy again. But would that be any better?

I know you said to drop it, but the EqG CMC seem to have been aged up a bit relative to the normal ones. They’re probably high school freshmen rather than elementary schoolers.

There’s an argument to be made that Spike was growing unusually fast, but his rampage through Ponyville was basically a game of King of the Hoard with no other players.

Except they don’t thats the point. None of the very few things we know about dragons were contradicted by SoME, and nothing since has contradicted what we learned in SoME.

I still have difficulty believing that people thought that bp actually made anything approaching sense.
 
Seriously, when he started whining about me using headcanon to fill in caps and stated that things that were actually said in show didn’t count because he didn’t want them to, since they contradicted his headcanon, I could barely stop laughing long enough to type a response.

I found his argument unconvincing.
 
Adult Spike was still the least violent dragon given any focus, and still understood Rarity just fine. He didn’t end up any less intelligent than the other adults seen.
 
There is nothing whatsoever pointing towards Spike’s growth being unnatural. Whether or not Spike was growing unusually fast is a valid question, but it hasn’t been addressed in show.

And his Dragon Code was written on some differently-magicked form of that paper, so his fire breath transported it from and to his own personal hammerspace?
 
Yeah, I can see that.

Purple Dragons are deep earth (deeper then Drow) dwellers who specialize in manipulation and mental domination. They are also avid explorers.
 
What makes me say Spike is metallic is that good aligned (metallic) dragons get two breath weapons: Spike has standard burn things fire, and teleportation fire.

Unless you’re a DnD dragon, in which case your a certified genius and brilliant spell caster.
 
Maybe that’s what Spike is destined to grow up into. All the other dragons are like Smaug, while Spike becomes a spell flinging, form shifting metallic dragon.

That’s certainly true. It galls me because I play DnD, and in that game big dragons are Machiavellian super-geniuses who work reality like clay. Alas, that is not the interpretation the MLP writers decided to go with. :(
