After Twilight delivers a batch of books to Sweet Apple Acres as a gesture of goodwill, she finds that Big Macintosh is not interested in her offerings. Through her efforts to discover why, she inadvertently discovers his most shameful secret.
Twilight has always loved mysteries. Almost nothing could compare to the joy she feels when finding an answer to a question no pony knew. But now she's solved a mystery with an answer she doesn't want, and it's one she can never forget
Twilight Sparkle has lived a full life but now she's a 115-year-old pony lying on her deathbed and waiting to pass on. As her time draws near, she receives a visit from a mysterious mare who has come to seek out the answer to a simple curiosity.
Twilight Sparkle and Spike take one of their usual late-night walks. The two discuss the past, present, and future, all while admiring the natural serenity of their surroundings.
Very nice, very sweet. At points, it did shift from present tense to past, but nothing too bad.
I only wish we knew more about the past, like Pinkie Pie and Spike's family. The thing is, however, that was the beauty of this story. They didn't discuss what happened exactly, because that would feel forced, even more so if explained in narrative, not to mention that it wasn't about explaining what happened, but rather reminiscing about the past and bringing out the good moments to enjoy. Good, sweet story.
3142179 Thank you very much for reading! 3142333 Good to hear from you again, Miss Dark Angel. I'll be sure to review and fix these errors, where they may appear. Cheers! 3144143 ...would you happen to be the same Harwick as harwicks-art on DA?
The "ponies playing poker" painting you drew is my laptop's background! You are an incredible artist, and I thank you for gracing my page! You're getting a watch.
Yes, that's my dA page... Thanks! I'm afraid watching me here might be rather boring, as I haven't produced anything for FimFiction and just use the account to read and comment on other people's stories, but I suppose you never know...
Regardless, thanks for sharing this charming Spike and Twilight tale!
Not too bad. The end was especially sweet, although I like to think Spike will end up with a mare instead of a partner of "his own kind". It was also a little unfortunate to hear Spike saying "your friends" and "your brother" as if he's alienating himself from his friends and family. Also:
I feel as if Spike's most adamant character flaw in the show is that he is constantly searching for acceptance and familial ties, even though it's been proven to him time and time again that family is in the heart, not in the mind.
Good story! keep on writing...

A sweet and charming little story that nicely touches on Twilight and Spikes devotion to each other... Well done!

I thank you very much for the read! This is my first fic in a year, and it's shown me that I still have ideas that people like. Thank you!

It's exemplified in most of his title card appearances (see "Dragon Quest", "Spike at Your Service", or most episodes involving Spike.)
Now where would spike find a 'family' out side the family he had already?
That was a sweet moment for Twilight and Spike.
