You know, Cadance is really sweet on Spike. It’s so adorable to see them together. Heck, she often acts like his mother. {You can’t dissuade my headcannon of Cadance raising Spike. It is too adorable to dislodge.}

Well, I’m not saying its bad or wrong how they interacted in ‘Princess Spike’,
but it is an interesting shift in dynamics between them!
Recognition is one thing. Character growth is something else entirely. And in that regard, Spike gets shit.
Mmmm…I’d go more with the idea that since she was Twilight’s babysitter, she probably was Spike’s as well.

Nor is he used to having fan girls. I’d love an episode focusing on that.
He’s also not used to getting gifts.
Spike is not used to getting compliments. Which probably says a lot about how he was raised by Twilight.
Plus his own throne.
cadance:..what? no!
That’s why she’s best princess.
Cadance has shown more respect for Spike than anyone else has at this moment. You’d be a little surprised too.
Yea. Like “WTF happens? What is Cadance doing?” and he looks away like “pls explain this!”
I totally agree with you tho. Spike does get recognition… sometimes. :P
I know, and it’s adorable.
Cause her massive mane gets in the way. :p

Sure, he saved the stadium and the Crystal Empire..But what has he done for me lately?
Hey, you can’t rest on your laurels. Or stadium-saving blasts of dragonfire, as the case may be.
I posted this OP as a compare/contrast with the conflict between Cadance and Spike in the latest episode:
