Hi! Merry Christmas! (I may be a little early since not even my Christmas/Winter Break has started yet, but merry Christmas anyway!) I hope that you like this little story of mine and that it makes your day. (Good luck on tomorrow's exam!) I hope that your day goes well and bright and that it becomes a beautiful, bright week. I wanted to write you something for a while for the character that you've always loved how I roleplay her and characterize her, so this was probably a while in the making, but I hope that it's a great testament to the character that I've roleplayed well with you. I hope that this story just makes you happy and is a good Christmas gift for you, because you definitely deserve it. Have a wonderful and blessed day and a very merry Christmas.

She was a magical pony that was for sure.

Twilight Sparkle though was more than that; she was definitely a loving friend.

The purple pony loved to study and even if it took years to warm up to others or at the very least learn how to draw closer to them, she would.

Twilight Sparkle loves her friends more than anything, could spend all day with Spike and the others and be ridiculously happy about it even if sometimes it was harder than other times to somehow balance her life in a simple array.

She'd learned how to become a true friend, learned something every day by her friends' sides, and she loved just every second she could have with her best friends, with the ponies that were shaping her into a much stronger mare.

Twilight Sparkle wasn't as outgoing as Rainbow Dash, couldn't ever hope to be, but she could hope that Rainbow Dash will always be there to help pull her out of her shell, help Twilight Sparkle discover the magic of friendship even when it seemed difficult sometimes.

She'd learned that there was a certain beauty, an unending charm, in everyone's unique qualities and had learned to appreciate the many ways in which she grew, in which her character became truly memorable.

The magical pony knew that truly everyday by her friends encouraged her, motivated her to try out new things, and even if sometimes she was the only planner of the group, they'd still bring her on to life's more spontaneous rides, no matter how much she longed for a plan, she'd learned that sometimes a little adventure was good for the soul.

Twilight Sparkle smiled as Rainbow Dash talked excitedly over a new adventure of her own, laughed quietly when Fluttershy told a truly funny tale, and beamed when she heard that Pinkie Pie wanted to celebrate another year of friendship, no matter how fast it seemed to fly by.

Her smile only grew more dazzling as Applejack discussed how things were at her farm and as Rarity brought up her latest fashion adventure.

Twilight Sparkle couldn't be happier than she was for friends that brought her out of her shell and built a new kind of family around her.

Love was there in every soft spoken tone and every second spent together: the love of a family, the love of friends.
