For most of my time in the fandom I took Spike's unrequited love arc with Rarity the same as everyone else. I think most people rooted for Spike, hoped that they could finally win Rarity over. But as I've gotten older, it became evident to me through rewatching the show and talking about it with my friends how the whole Spike and Rarity thing is kinda creepy. Rarity continually led the kid on, despite being much older. And even when Spike started to move on, Rarity started getting jealous.

Spike has also been the butt of every joke. They've been the one to carry everyone else's baggage and tasks  for pretty much the entire show. They've often been pressured to fit in, especially due to their lack of conformity to normal dragon societal standards.

I wrote Nonexistent Meet-Cute from the perspective of an adult Spike. In their independence and growth, they explore their identity and purpose, coming to realize that they've built up a lifetime of depression and cynicism. In a sudden act of defiance and anxiety, Spike confronts Rarity and tells her every little thought in their head.

Or perhaps it's just Spike daydreaming about doing it.
