Key Grip: organizer of lighting.

Quite!

@Swashbucklist  
SpJWs are not people. :D

I don’t know who decided the spikeabuse tag goes here, but it doesn’t belong. This is Spike being awesome and willingly doing his job, not being abused. How would the users who filter the tag have found this?

@Blood Brandy  
Damn right!

Twilight For You is filmed in front of a live Spike.

@Blood Brandy  
Oh hey, finally another Spike fan who feels much the same way I do.

I’m a Spike fan and I’ll admit, I kinda like this. The gem thing seems a bit much, but most of it is kinda true, and it shows Spike’s strength. He’s the supporter, the guy behind the scenes. You focus on the fact that his episodes are him messing up, but you forget he works as Twilight’s assistant, cleans, cooks and does quite a bit of stuff. He messes up in his episodes because his normal life, while probably good for a Slice of Life story, isn’t a big thing. He’s happy helping, and he’s just not used to the spotlight so he flubs up, but behind the scenes when you don’t see him, he shines.

Cute comic!

Seems legit.

@ExOttoyuhr  
‘Cuz that’s what the salesman at Tulip Brother’s One-Stop Salvage said.

@Background Pony #4C69  
Poor Spike.
 
…
 
Why did the slingshots need to be Bolivian?

@Background Pony #B0C5  
Letsee here…
 
Four tin cans, Troll Away spray, $19.95 apiece,  
two Bolivian Army slingshots, $9.95 each,  
Day-Glo troll waders, $119.50,  
troll ninja nun-chucks, $9.95,  
slime-proof troll gloves, $49.95,  
chopped troll bait, $3.00 a pound…fifty pounds,  
fourteen No Troll strips, only $9.95 each,  
and one trolling motor, $79.95,  
for a grand total of…$687.25…plus tax.
 
Spike’s lousy treatment by characters and real folks is, and always will be, an issue. Nice try. :P

@Background Pony #B0C5  
But the whole charm of Twilight-Spike interactions is seeing Twilight Oblivious Sparkle innocently abusing her long-suffering assistant…

This is a nice comic, but the intern one is the funniest.

Well, hopefully Spike is pulling down ten paychecks for the ten jobs he’s doing.

Really? All that Spike fans can talk about on this comic is how he’s abused and taken advantage of?
 
It’s official: Spike fans are worst fans.

Cinemare Sins is on to something in wondering whether the whole show might turn out to be a villain origin story for Spike. :)

Spike holding a camera should become a thing, he looks cool holding a camera like that.

Would it kill ya to hug him with more than one damn leg, Twilight? Or scoop him up, since he’s the one who’s been exhausting himself all day?

@lumpfish  
I wish I could share your optimism. But as you may be able to tell from my past words, I cannot.

awwwww credit where it’s due…

@Aegis Steadfast  
Which means we will almost never get to see him to any actual work in canon.

This is trying so hard to look cute, but she’s pretty much stealing from him and abusing him at the same time.
 
But that’s fine. He’s Spike. He can take it.
 
Cute comic.

Don’t forget slave, Twilight. :U
