I love this shipp I wish Smolder would be her in the drawing

Basically the episode “Dragon Dropped” but instead of Rarity it’s Smolder and instead of Gabby it’s Emziko.

Episode centers around how Smolder forces Spike into various activities he’s not interested in/doesn’t like but he “has” to do it because “that’s what dragons do” and Smolder takes her opportunities to harass Spike over his pony lifestyle. Commence one of these situations resulting in a new Dragon student, Emziko, encountering Spike and instead of being the rough brute that Smolder is, she’s a sweetheart who stands up for Spike since he’s friends with the Dragon Lord and actually won the Gauntlet of Fire, so he deserves respect. Anytime Spike tries to roll over and accept abuse, Emziko snaps and tells Spike how he’s worth more than that and shouldn’t be a doormat JUST because Smolder is another dragon. Continue with Emziko having similar interests and hobbies and liking pony life and soon Smolder is basically pushed out of Spike’s life as he has no place for a bully like her.

I still think it’s a shame Emzkio never became canon.

That’s cute.
