An old chest lies locked away deep within the Castle of the Royal Sisters. Dusty and forgotten, neglected and abused... They should have left it that way.
*blinks* ... well idea of somepony picking Brimstone is cute-riffying (except Pinkie, this would be A class jumpscare horror + almost instant chest speedrun). I'm kinda curious what is nature of mother, I get a feeling she had too much autonomy/intelligence for a construct of child's imagination but at this time I will just file it as "It's magic, enough said". Nice story by the way.
11457523 I appreciate the interest, and I'm glad you're enjoying it
And yeah, the idea of Pinkie getting... a lot of items, is pure nightmare fuel. There are a lot of possible fun/terrifying interactions to be had from the ponies getting ahold of the different transformative items, but unfortunately there won't be much, if any, of that in this story. I didn't want the focus to purely be on the items, and I had to narrow down what I wanted to include a lot due to the constraints of the plot. Maybe some other Isaac crossover can focus on those aspects missing here.
As for mother, you would probably be right that she has too complicated of a personality for Isaac's imagination to cook up, but then again, the world within the chest in and of itself is very complex. My interpretation of how it all came to be will somewhat be explained later, but it isn't that far off from "Magic, 'nuff said"
I’m really wondering how the pony crew will react if Isaac picks up one of the items that mutilates himself in some manner. Also, I love how you made Isaac’s Mom’s death cry both pained and saddened - with how good this crossover is, I’m rolling to believe that you really know your Isaac stuff and it’s representative of the theory that it’s Isaac’s Mom finding Isaac’s corpse within the chest.
