I don't understand why some people are so quick to jump aboard the "Spike needs someone his own age" bandwagon, based simply on his young appearance and being a "baby dragon" and don't consider the other facts too. Spike could EASILY be closer to his age than it looks like. For one thing, Twilight hatched him way back when she was just a filly, AT LEAST 12 or 13 (maybe more) years ago, and the mane six are said to be in their late teens, which wouldn't put Spike THAT far from Rarity's age. Yes, he DOES SEEM to age slower than them, and dragons in general are known for having a bit of a slow aging/growth process. But the episode Secret of My Excess showed us that dragons grow faster based on their greed, and Spike generally suppresses his. So it's highly possible that Spike's age/growth is simply slowed down due to the fact that he suppresses his greed. But we also don't know if the growth factor affects the aging factor. If not, than he more than likely LOOKS younger than he actually IS, for said reason. If so, than the fact that he remains so young simply due to the suppression of his greed, makes his young age feel artificial, like he's stuck in limbo or something, and could easily be fixed if he were to stop suppressing his greed.But alas, people don't want to consider these facts, and would simply rather judge Spike by his appearance and being a "baby dragon". These same people must also enjoy judging books by their covers.But in any case, good job on the design of the pic, even if I feel bad for Spike, as I do in general that he hasn't won her over yet. But he will some day!
