The fact that they have Smolder interact with Spike JUST so she can treat him like the prick other dragons did is what infuriates me the most since Ember KNOWS he’s not like other dragons since she is (or WAS) his friend. Smolder LOVED telling Spike that he’d be disowned from his family and that he’d be hunted by predators, and even though she noted that he wouldn’t raid a pony town or anything to find a new home and would be some outlaw vagabond who’s life is over, continued to delight in constantly hammering home how ruined his life was, enjoying his freakout instead of trying to calm him down or ease said fears.
~At the climax when the Rok is attacking, instead of Twilight coming to help, It’s Ember who shows up.
~When Spike molts, he’s different looking, visibly bigger and more mature looking instead of looking 100% the same.
~When Spike laments that he has to abandon the ponies because of molting, Ember asks him why he’d have to do that, only for him to tell her that Smolder told him so.
~“Smolder is a dragon who knows nothing about ponies, much less dragons who live with ponies. Why do you think she’s at the school of friendship?”
~“Oh yeah… Good point.”
In other words, she treats him like a Dragon. The teenage dragons are supposed to be an allegory for asshole teenage boys (or i guess its called “toxic masculinity” as the kids call it these days) and anyone who grew up with a group of friends back in the day can agree with me when I say that this was the norm then. She playfully hits spike thinking he can take it when hes molting but then apologies after when she realizes it actually hurt him because she didn’t know he wasn’t like other dragons at the time because for dragons that’s normal. She clearly doesn’t know him very well during the molt since she had to ask if he actually lived with ponies his whole life so obviously shes not gonna understand his boundaries hell by season 9 shes fully aware that hes “sensitive”. Even in the father knows beast episode she looks out for him if she didn’t give a crap about the guy she wouldn’t have bothered
Edited
Smolder acted “kinda tough” with the other students but Gallus tempered her by firmly returning it.
