Shipper on Deck: Spike actively works on getting Fluttershy and Big Macintosh together. As made clear by the epilogue, Fluttershy and Big Macintosh did ultimately get together, marrying and even having a daughter. Spike is also attempting to set up Rarity with Just Cause. Twilight even lampshades it. | |

Does Not Know His Own Strength | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_38291355 | comment |
Does Not Know His Own Strength: One of Spike's biggest issues with growing up; he is far stronger than he's used to being. This complicates such matters as picking up items without slicing/crushing them. This also goes for his fire-breathing. Big Macintosh apparently suffered from similar issues when he was young which leads him to offering to teach Spike. | |

It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Having great strength, claws that can cut rock, the ability to incinerate a field with a gout of flame, and being the size of a few ponies put together would ordinarily be considered a plus; however, these aren't very conducive to living peacefully in Ponyville. | |

In the epilogue, Razorfang has become this to Huffy and Spike, even after the revelation that Spike's biological father is still alive. | |

No True Scotsman | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_567e2f0 | comment |
No True Scotsman: Razorfang frequently berates Spike for not acting like a "true" dragon. The Wyrmstadt ambassador's representative, who isn't even a dragon, also gets in on the act. Spike is quick to point out the Fridge Logic in their stances. The dragon magician sent to oversee the duel in chapter 15 also gets this from Razorfang since he also befriended Unicorn Ponies nearly two thousand years ago. In the case of said dragon magician, he has an excellent Shut Up, Hannibal! moment when he reminds all present that he is a freaking dragon wizard. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: A group of ponies fear Spike and think he is nothing but a bloodthirsty monster. The dragon from Everfree Forest has a very low opinion of ponies, and thinks that Spike is less of a dragon because he was raised by them. Mainly because in the past, ponies would hunt dragons. And vice versa. | |

It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_6b35bdff | comment |
Serious Business: Names are a big deal to dragons. Razorfang disapproves of Spike giving out his name to everyone, and is shocked that Twilight, a mere pony, was the one who named Spike. It turns out that the reason why names are such a big deal is because only a dragon's family is supposed to know the name. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: A mild example, but it still counts: After learning about the untimely death of his biological mother and siblings, Twilight tries to cheer Spike up by telling him that his mother thought him important enough to try and defend from the hunters that killed her. He feels better almost immediately. At least until Spike is bombarded with rather scathing hate-mail and a death threat Most of chapter 10 is pretty light-hearted, in keeping with the spirit of the show. Then a harpoon nearly takes Spike's head off. In chapter 11 Spike and the Mane 6 are still recovering from the aforementioned harpoon launching, and just as Spike is starting to feel a little better, a stampede of ponies tell him that Razorfang has been spotted in Ponyville's outskirts. After the duel with Razorfang, everyone is having a great time at the party for Spike, until the leader of the anti-dragon protesters comes running up screaming for Spike to tell him that there's an anti-dragon riot going on in Ponyville. | |

Coming of Age Story | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_b1e8a3b3 | comment |
Coming of Age Story: The story is primarily about Spike dealing with the difficulties of growing into an adult dragon; with all of the internal, social, and natural conflicts that that entails. Not that growing up is completely without cool perks for Spike… Also has shades of Growing Up Sucks | |

Berserk Button | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: Thanks to dragon territoriality, any insult or threat to the ponies Spike holds dear, especially Twilight, is a Berserk Button for him. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: The leader of the protester ponies Grape Vine grew up hearing horror stories of her great-grandparents being killed in a greed-grown dragon's rampage. Razorfang, too, since his mate was killed by ponies who wanted the land, and his sons for trying to avenge her. | |

Last-Minute Hookup | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_c9c317cd | comment |
Last-Minute Hookup: Applejack's new relationship with Rainbow Dash is briefly mentioned in the epilogue, as well as Twilight's new-found love for Trixie. Ironically, Spike and Huffy's relationship, the only one which is constantly hinted at, is the only one that isn't fulfilled by the story's end. | |

Hypocrite/Entitled Bastard: The leader of the protester ponies who believes that Spike is a menace begs Spike to protect everyone when Razorfang appears near Ponyville's outskirts in chapter 11. Rarity even called her a Hypocrite | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: Spike is not happy about his projected lifespan, although Princess Luna did provide some perspective along an offer of friendship. On the whole mostly averted once Spike decides that by living as long as he will he can keep the memories of his friends alive for their descendants. | |

Mundane Utility | |
It Takes a Village (Fanfic) / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: About the only thing Spike plans to use his strength, flight, sharp claws, and fire-breathing for that actually falls into what a dragon would normally do is "protect Ponyville" otherwise he seems to prefer helping lift heavy rocks, unblock streams, help make charcoal, cook, and generally lend a claw where a hoof or horn won't cut it. | |
