The other part of the series of two drawings "Can You Still Remember Me?" [link]

I guess this might be a bit sensitive topic for the fandom, dunno. But anyway, I killed the mane six. I knew this might not get a lot of attention, and even less appreciation. But I decided to draw it anyway.
This is the way I see how things would go. The six will die, like everyone else. Meanwhile Spike probably having his "dragon sleep" or whatever. Sleeping for a few hundred years and growing up somewhere in the mountains. When he wakes up all his friends are already dead. What about the princesses? I don't think Spike would keep contact with them. I've always thought that he's somewhat afraid of them. And a dragon near Canterlot would probably cause panic. That's how I want to imagine it.

My... this is one of the best MLP drawings I've seen ever. Congratulations on saying so much with such a simple composition.

Interesting art style. Almost Edward Gorey in nature which is rather in keeping with the subject of the posting.

Truly, this is a masterpiece for MLP. Everywhere you see happy, go-lucky fan-art, but to see something so beautifully sad and wonderfully rendered... It takes my breath away. No drawn out sorrow, no pool of tears, no gore, no violence, just a true testament to a wonderful friendship. Elegant yet simple, melancholic with a touch of nostalgia, and above all heart-rendingly sad. Perhaps I am insane, but I do not find this depressing. I find it beautiful. I can picture Spike laying the roses on the grave: "Even in death, you are still my best friends." And then without another word he departs, perhaps never to return. You have done a magnificent job with this. Thank you.

Spike wouldn't really be afraid of them. Wary of Luna' yes, but Celestia basically raised him till Twilight was old enough to take care of him. Celestia's essentially his mother.
