Spike's time on the cruise home to Equestria was pleasant enough, with the reuniting of Rarity and some time to think. But now Spike is home, and there are plenty of problems he would rather not face. Namely, his feelings towards his sister Twilight Sparkle. Spike has not seen her in over five years, and he cannot tell if he would rather keep it that way. Can he really call her a friend again? Can he call anyone? Maybe his relationships were not as strong as he thought they were. Maybe, Spike is better off alone.

This is my own sequel to https://www.fimfiction.net/story/519921/remembrance which I wrote earlier this year. I based the original off of another similar story, but tried going deeper with it. I wanted to explore the aftermath of the journey Spike would take. The last story had one NSFW chapter at the end, but I don't intend for this to have any so it is more accessible to everyone. There will be hints towards it and romantic scenes, but nothing more. Hope you enjoy!
