~*~*~*~*~*~*~ HAPPY HOLIDAYS ~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It's the twelfth month of the year, which only means one thing: Christmas. For those who don't know (poor things!), Christmas is a wonderful time of year where you come together with your family or other loved ones and exchange gifts, eat warm home-cooked food, and have a grand old merry time.
Since we're lacking in a couple of those things, we can do another fun little tradition that's pretty popular back home. People sign up, say what they like or dislike or whatever, and then someone else will get them a gift! Everyone's randomly assigned, so maybe you'll even end up making a new friend or two. Isn't that nice?
And maybe if you're all good little boys and girls and anything in-between, Santa himself will be the one to gift you your present this year. Hohoho.
Christmas is traditionally on the 25th day of the twelfth month, so that's when we'll be starting our gifting! There'll be a nice little place set up around and in City Hall for you to swing by and hand them or drop them off if you end up getting someone you don't know, or if you really don't want them to know you were their secret Santa... Let's make this a merry little month, shall we? It's been a whole half year since the first of those unlucky louts showed up, after all! Poor guys.
If there's any fun little winter activities any of you do during this time too, why not share them? Could be fun to have a few extra things to stave off the boredom between the day-changing occurrences that happen every few weeks in this city.
( and attached to this post is a form. go ahead and look at the info post, sign up if you want, and have fun. )

I was hoping I misunderstood the calendar or something, but if it's actually winter, I was really hoping for more snow rather than ice?
( it kind of removes a lot of the fun snow activities out of the question.. unless they really want to be pelting bits of ice at each other.
which some of them might, )
Like, what can you even do when it's just cold and wet?
txt | un: theonewhogifts
Mudballs.
But I get what you mean! It snowed pretty early in the season back where I grew up, and it'd last a while into spring, too. I'm hoping we'll get a Christmas miracle and the City'll bless us with some white.

I'll participate.

Gotta say, pretty relaxing as long as you don't skip the showering part.
no subject
Oh, yes, no one likes someone stinking up the sauna.

Those are those little marshmallow and chocolate treats, right? I've never had one.
no subject
yeah, those! you really never had any? you're missing out. they're not that hard to make.
no subject
Are they really that good.
no subject
yeah! i mean a lot of it is making them, that's the fun part. if you don't make a mess, you're doing it wrong.
no subject
Then maybe you'll do the honor of showing us how it's done at the party! Smoresmeister Junpei.
no subject

We're all friends here, aren't we! All trapped in the same shithole city, same shithole circumstances...
Hahaha, but I'm not policing what people give, no, so if they want to mess around a little and make some mischief, that's not my problem.

Are you one of them, or have you just not had the pleasure of celebrating my favorite holiday?

judging? krampus? what? i thought this was just about nice presents
no subject
Krampus is a monster that punishes misbehaving children and ne'er-do-wells. Santa likes being thought of as a good person, so he lets someone else take the heat.

no subject
Hahaha. Have you been naughty, Casterchen?
no subject
i dont think so??? well maybe a little bit but it wasnt on purpose
wait this wasnt about me!! it was about santa!

ive never been able to do something like this before so count me in
txt | un: theonewhogifts
Not like the place I grew up in was a cheerful little Christmas town or anything, but it was a pretty common "bonding exercise," I guess you could call it, during school.
Just like giving everyone cards and candy on Valentine's Day.
no subject
but it wasnt something my friends did so i never participated, but i like being able to do nice things for people
ive never done anything for valentines day before, either
no subject
Wonder if that'll change here... Hahaha, probably not!
no subject
