Princess Luna is the best princess and Nightmare Moon is the best queen.

It was late in the afternoon on Christmas Eve and you still haven't got gifts for your kids. Your daughter is into Equestria Girls and your son is into Transformers. While you're in the toy section, something catches your eye in a way you never imagined.

Story includes gender neutral parent.

well... The main character is pathetic... taking a gift for your daughter for yourself.

The Equestria Girls doll was for the daughter, the Sing and Glow Izzy was for the parent.

.......who left these onions here

i love izzy too, id love to have an izzy of mine own that was real. id tell her shes my best pony but im afraid she'd break my heart:fluttershysad:

I have an Izzy plush, one of those small $ 7 ones from Walmart but it beats having nothing at all. I doubt Izzy would break your heart, she doesn't remind me of the type that would want to intentionally hurt anyone.

awesome story mate keep it up cant wait for the next story:pinkiehappy::twilightsmile:

Kyoot. }:D

Well it will be coming tomorrow.

"You know Izzy, I don't know how I'm going to get you in the house without my kids noticing or where I'm going to display you but don't worry, I'm not going to let my kids handle you because they'd have you damaged before New Year's."

I do not have children, but I have couple MLP plushies and young family that are coming over for Christmas, so I can relate to these concerns.

11074479

I would say put your plushies out of sight so they won't see them and then want them.

11074497
Don't worry. Worse comes to worse I'll hide them in the trunk of my car.

11074501

Good idea. I have A TON of plushies, many of which were very costly and are for display purposes only. Luckily I don't have any kids coming to worry about.

Poor Pinkamena....sorry for the late response.

LoL, that was so cute! If Izzy really WAS talking, she must have been from Equestria or something, Lol.
Too bad the story wasn't longer, though...I wanted the reactions of the family and they could hear her talk.
This should be more popular, it is such as great idea for real-life concerning Gen 5. Get gifts early and enjoy your gift, even when you had only been buying for your kids at first. The main character didn't have a present before that, so, oh well!

They also can't forget to buy a present for the boy to make the toy amounts equal now, sigh...make the kids be satisfied with ONE present each! Bruh...

Now the main character can snuggle in bed, sleeping with plushie Izzy next night...:heart:

11074150
Aw...sad...also the writing: YES.

The boy had a transformers figure, the girl got the Equestria Girls doll. The parent wanted Izzy for him/herself so each kid did get one toy! Yeah I probably should have made this one longer, I know I rushed my way through it. I'm glad you like it though.

11101110
You're welcome! It really was cute! Everyone got a nice gift (including the toy), so everyone wins!

11101117

Well the spouse wound up getting fancy cookware. I chose to make this be a gender neutral parent so that the guys/gals wouldn't feel like they were being excluded.

11101124
Yeah, good idea! It's true that someone else could have felt let out and it is a bit easier to insert yourself into the story. I realized while reading :).

11101134

Well this was a second person story. When I think of self-inserts, I think of a story where the author literally inserts themself into the story. "You" can be anyone, to me self-inserts are also done in the first person rather than the second person. I would likely clash with some people on that belief but that is how I see it.

11101137
I see, well, you did a great job. :heart:

11102264

Thanks. It was something I just decided to throw together pretty much at the last minute but I did have fun writing it though.

11102267
You're welcome, and the ending of my recent story "babysitting cheesiness" was rushed too, but people thankfully like them. 😅

I also have a Sing and Glow Izzy, when I got her, she said the same saying over and over again. I thought she was broken, but really the batteries were dead, so I put in new ones and she now works. I love her. Even though Pipp is my Favorite G5 Character, Sing and Glow Izzy is my favorite G5 Toy. :)

All I have as far as G5 merch goes is a few Walmart plushies (the $ 6 ones) and five figures.

11314550
Cool, I really like this story. It is very wholesome and sweet. I would definitely be the person who bought Izzy, no toy left behind. Also the G5 Toys that I have from first to latest
- Mega Movie Friends Izzy (aka the ones you find at dollar stores)
- Mega Movie Friends Sunny
- Singing Star Princess Pipp Petals
- Sparkle Adventures Zipp Storm
- Sing and Glow Izzy.

Nice. I'm trying to cut back on merch and go with things like shirts instead. I have five G5 shirts and Celestia knows how many G4 shirts.

11315236
I agree, Especially when I have 2 subscriptions, the YouTube Premium subscription and the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. I originally had an Xbox Live Gold subscription but I upgraded to Game Pass Ultimate for 1 dollar cuz it was a deal and I got 20 extra days, I got it cuz cloud gaming. I also originally had a Stadia Pro membership for 3 months free cuz I was a YouTube premium member, but I canceled it due to cost cutting reasons. But I am okay, now I am just waiting for the MLP G5 Console game to come to Xbox Game Pass.

UPDATE: So I found out Stadia is shutting down in 2023, well on the upside I get the uno game I got on stadia to my pc for free and my ten dollars back, on the downside I still have to wait for the g5 game to come to game pass. HURRY IT UP MICROSOFT OR OUTRIGHT GAMES!!

You have quite a few subscriptions there it seems. I'm not big into gaming and the last time I upgraded my console was when I got my PS3....and with it, I mainly play games like the Lord of the Rings games where it is basically just me going up against the game itself. As far as a console game for G5, I know that they won't make a ps3 version of it and at this point in my life, I don't see upgrading to a ps4 or a ps5 as all that important....not to mention I can put my money to better use elsewhere.

11315862
Ok, but I still like this story. It was actually so wholesome, it almost made me tear up a little bit.

11315929

Wow, I didn't expect it to almost make anypony tear up a bit....glad you liked it.

11316204
you're welcome, also today I picked up a PS3 Super Slim, so now I have all current playstation consoles, from the ps 1, to the ps2, to 3, to 4 and finally, the PS5.

11318484

Wow, you must game quite a bit. I don't do enough gaming to warrant me getting anything past the PS3 I have, well that and the consoles and games aren't cheap....and I have bills I have to pay so I have to be careful when it comes to non-essentials.
