They each introduced themselves, the draconic female going first. She had orange-ish hair, and magenta eyes.

"Nice to meetcha, lil dude! I'm Smolder Eldritch. Anything interesting you wanna tell us?", She asked, and smiled, her fangs glinting in the light. Spike felt a little annoyed at being called little, but he didn't say anything. The next person came up, this one was the one with feathers in her hair.

"Hiya! It's super cool to meet another draconic member of the species! I'm Gabby Goober, it's super nice to meet you, I hope we can be great friends!", She said enthusiastically, which reminded him of a certain pink haired girl.

The next one to step up was the red and yellow haired girl, with pony features, and a horn on her forehead.

"Hi, I'm Sunset Shimmer! Maybe we can play games together later, if you are interested?", Spike blinked at the word 'games', but it didn't mean anything to the rest, so he chuckled and nodded.

The last two girls were left, the familiar one, and the one with the Cello, which the latter spoke up first.

"It's nice to meet you. My name is Octavia Melody, do you like music? I'm a cellist.", Said the girl, and after Spike nodded, she took his answer in stride.

The last girl was a pale girl, with emerald green eyes, and her hair was split in the middle, and ended in curls, with pink and white.

"Hey there! My name is Sweetie Andadora Belle. I think my sister mentioned something about someone like you. Do you know Rarity?", Asked the girl, and Spike snapped his fingers.

"I knew you looked familiar! It's nice to meet all of you, my name is Spike Dracon. I hope we can be good friends!", He said, and bowed slightly, which made his crown tilt down his face, nearly falling.

The girls chuckled as they saw this, and as Spike straightened up, Vinyl took his hand once again, and led him to the three rooms they had available.

"I hope you enjoy getting settled in, but uh, where's your stuff?", She asked, now noticing the no luggage part. Spike just chuckled nervously, and thought of something quick.

"Oh, around, all I have to do is-", and as he took his hand behind his back for dramatic effect, he pulled out one of his things from his inventory, and presented it to Vinyl. Who giggled in surprise.

"Oooh, a human-magic enthusiast, huh? We have a few of those here, but that seems more advanced than any tricks they pulled off. You use real magic to do that?", She asked, and Spike in response, just shrugged his shoulders.

"Ehhh, kinda. I never really knew magic actually existed until yesterday, but hey, one picks up skills when observing others-", and then Spike had an epiphany, stopping his talking immediately, and his mind swam with the possibilities.

He walked past Vinyl straight towards the third room unconsciously, not hearing anything else she said as he closed and locked the door, and started decorating his room.

Satisfied with the results, but also strangely irked with one of them, he didn't realize he was staring blankly at a wall as one of the girls spoke.

"Hey, how long are you gonna ogle the wall. Until it becomes pretty? That's what we are here for dude!", Exclaimed a teasing voice, and as he looked, he found it was Smolder who said it.

"S... Sorry, I had some things on my mind. What were you saying?", Spike asked embarrassingly, and the girl chuckled.

"I was trying to ask you what you wanted to eat, but we already ordered pizza. You want any?", She asked, and Spike if course shook his head yes.

"Absolutely! I'll eat anything at this point really. I just got finished with a session if Undertale*. Both fights were exhausting to finish at the end.", Spike said, and just as he was about to get a drink of water, Sunset Shimmer appeared, clearly enthusiastic at what she heard.

"I love that game! Though I feel bad for that Chara character, she gets blamed a lot from lots of Undertale* fans. When we are clearly the bad person for choosing the genocide route, but hey, I've only done it once. The music with Sans was an amazing part of it though.", She said, and while everyone looked at her, like they didn't understand, Spike understood completely.

"Exactly! Though, you gave me something to think about, I'm gonna have to ponder this-", Spike was interrupted when Gabby came in with the stack of pizza boxes, and yelled out loud.

"Ponder later, food now! Spike, can you go get the soda from that nice delivery girl? Also, I didn't pay yet, take this.", She asked, and Spike nodded, heading to get it, with the money in hand.

He came upon a pink haired girl. His jaw dropped, as did the girl's, and they he felt two pairs of arms wrap around his gut so fast, it was like she teleported them there.
