Why didn’t he bring the keys?

@PartTimePegasus  
Mmm… this will do:  
(Are you still there, server? It’s me, Margaret.)

And here, Spike shows us how Heartbleed works.

Yet another thing to add to Spike’s list of skills and abilities. Heating metal to molten liquid.

@HunterSClopson  
She “moves” it from a distance with magic she doesn’t rub her horse face in it.

@DGPencil  
She moves the freaking sun. I think burns are to her like the cold is to Elsa.

So this is why Celestia didn’t come to help clean up Ponyville. She had sever burns from the melted lock that fell on her.

Yeah in the RPG rules I’m writing, dragon characters have as a racial ability the option to gain the ability to use unicorn magic if they choose. Good to hear it’s at least theoretically quasi-canon.

@observer  
It’s still interesting stuff that even if not official canon, can supplement headcanon.  
And it’s alot better than having nothing, and it’s something that simply happens with no explanation.

@Ping_chan  
According to Faust, Celestia told spike how to teleport letters with his fire and he is actually casting a spell when he does it.
 
But I’m not sure how cannon it is since she mentioned Celestia being Spike’s adoptive mother in the same post (something that is still up in the air)

@Background Pony #A443  
I would actually like them to explain canonicaly how Spike can teleport letters.

@McGack  
You stop that right now.  
You know people don’t like when you point out actual, valid examples of something that goes against an age-old joke, simply because it forces them to use their brains for once.
 
But seriously, why do people constantly forget that scrolls (and a piece of paper once) are the only things he ever teleported while everything else has always burned normally?
 
By now its much more plausible that the teleportation thing is because of a spell Twilight/ Celestia casts on the paper in the library so that it responds like that to Spike’s fire.

*official

Holy fuck, he melted it in 2 seconds.  
I think its officinal now the little guy can somehow alter the power of his fire at will.

Spike being the badass he is.

“F the police.” –Spike

@observer  
He probably just had to learn that he could melt locks in the first place.  
He probably only knew how to do his teleport fire breath first.

Why didn’t he just do that when he was on the moon (comic books)

Okay, does Ponyville have a serious problem with its security or something?

Breaking and Entering, baby.  
He’s just a few steps away from selling Pinkie’s Sugar on the streets and arrowing officers to death.

But the good stuff’s in his closet, I swear he wouldn’t mind. Hell, we’ll just shoot the lock off, I do it all the time!

The inner metallurgist inside me is crying that someone would think of making a lock out of a eutectic copper alloy.

@Kappe  
And he didn’t destroy the door that the lock is attached to. In fact wait a minute.. That lock is just attached to a metal ring, I don’t think that lock is actually securing anything!
