With another wonderful year comes another wonderful attempt... at Halloween trying to figure out the winter holidays. This year, a giant ornate (and somewhat carnivorous) tree has been placed in the middle of town hall. What are supposed to be "elves", but are literally flesh-eating elves are decked up head to toe in lights and red questionable material, calling themselves "Satan's helpers".
In the good holiday spirit, they offer to package and ship a present for you for a relatively cheap price in pumpkin seeds. Tis the season to be jolly!
OOC
WELCOME TO THE ANNUAL TRADITION OF GIFT GIVING
- Just rp your character(s) coming here and dropping of whatever gifts you want for their friends/acquaintances. This is applicable to citizens, students, and horsemen. - Make sure to quote the players so they know what lovely presents their characters got from Satan this year!

Alette, of course, had made her way to the tree with a serious amount of enthusiasm that was really only applicable every single day of her life. She pranced over with a large box in her arms, which she promptly dropped at the base of the tree, giving it a happy pat on the top of it. Ignoring the questionable assistants, Alette forked over the seeds and then danced off, blond pigtails swinging.
[A.V.]
Maddie would find a giant, pink, fuzzy sweater with white polka dots in the box, underneath which are a pair of hair ribbons.
There was also a box of green things that looked sort of like...lettuce. Or salad. Or something.
A note included said, in loopy pink handwriting with lots of stickers:
Hi hi hi!! Have some gifts!! I hope you like them!! xoxoxoxo Alette heart heart heart

Merry
Tis the season, and the energetic chimera fully embraced the spirit. She'd gone all out in her pursuit to rain gifts and good cheer among her friends and loved ones. An over achiever in the world of generosity.
And if a few student dorms had been broken into when their inhabitants had been out for the day, well. Hopefully they appreciated the lovely present they'd find on their bed or desk as ample compensation for the invasion.

Ahm
prolixity
Nahm
No break in was required for the twins, not when Merry had already been granted unlimited access. Still, she'd decided to surprise the boils, leaving their gifts when they were both away. On either bed she'd leave a brightly wrapped box with a few of her own feathers decorating the tops. Inside, both would find a rather expansive sewing kit to meet their individual styling needs. There was also a large assortment of spookies and other treats.
Individually, Ahm would find a rather fancy looking brooch, and Nahm a sleek sports watch.

Spinar
For The ice demon with expensive tastes, a new waistcoat. Dark, charcoal grey, with a very subtle, very small snowflake motif done in silver thread along the lapels.
Enoh Love
Helmut
Food. A very small mountain of food.
Helmut would receive about a dozen different boxes and bags of various chips, spookies, and other assorted yummies.
She'd also find a new scarf in soft, dove grey.

Junko
For his beautiful wife to be, a lovely charm bracelet with a dozen varying charms already dangling from the silver chain. There was a miniature ring for their engagement, a scareon ball, a spider lily, a sea shell, a comb and brush, and a few others that were either pretty or held some personal significance to the ghoul or the couple.
Jory

Gifts were simultaneously difficult and easy. Knowing his boilfriend as well as he did, he knew what he liked, what he didn't like. What he had, what he needed. The problem, of course, was narrowing it down, a few needed and meaningful items.
He'd ended up picking a new hoodie for the boil. The majority of the ones he had no longer fit, not after all the growing the larger monster had been doing over the year. It was a pale green color, with a white graphic on the front, and super soft inside.
In the pocket he'd find a clockwork mahamba figure that would waddle/crawl across a table when wound up. There was also new notebook for his classwork. The last one he'd gotten the boil had mysteriously vanished.
lizbot
Reese
Reese had been a hard one to shop for, but Jory was determined.
He'd found, in a little shop at the maul, a few patches in various designs. Nothing too fancy, but things the ghost could apply to clothing or a bag.
He'd also bought her a new wipe board and a set of three different colored markers for it. Blue, purple, and pink.
It hadn't been exactly hard to come up with the needed 'materials' for the gift that a certain Terron wanted to give to her carnivorous friend but it had been just a little... Hard to keep her senses in check from the smell they had been giving off. But she suppose that three large steaks, nearly the size of her head, stacked on top of one another would create such a smell.
Even for being in a little Styrofoam box with a bow on top and a card attached that read:
'Hope you like them! （‐＾▽＾‐）- Damaris'

Whatever this holiday thing was had piqued her interest enough to take a trip to Halloweentown to drop off a few "presents" wrapped in animal hide and rope. Gifts to the war mare were things to give those when they did something of merit, or when she felt like it, but this "holiday" gift giving was something she wasn't familiar with. Either way, she'd managed to find or make a few things for some others. And if she could leave it here without having to linger, all the better for her. Quickly, Iyari moved to the tree and placed the packages down and glaring up at it, moving back from it to disappear again.

SAN:
Wrapped up with mouse fir is a long bag tied with rope. Upon opening it reveals a rope-bound scratching post with a note: "Keep them sharp for our next brawl".

JABBERJAY:
A small bag of leather tied with a dyed blue rope. Opening it reveals a small broach assembled from colorful feathers, bone and a blue jewel. The note reads: "A good luck charm for you, my sister in arms."

EISHETH:
The bag is dark fur and opening it reveals handmade glass bottles, which are wonkily shaped. "For your potions or whatever need you may have." The note reads.
musicaloner7
QUI:
Outside of the bag is made of a white fur with painted spots on it, tied together at the top. Revealed inside is a carved cheetah from bone. The note scrawled says, "Let's race again", as a challenge.
The carnivious tree was a nice touch in Astra's opinion, and she was only to happy to put her present under the tree for the elves to deliver to her boil friend. She hoped he would appreciate her gift.

Yuki receives a basket filled with purple and blue flowers that gave off a relaxing scent, and on top of said flowers is a Mimikyu

The dragoness stood at the base of the slightly dangerous tree, intrigued by the flesh eating elves who would deliver gifts. It sounded like a pretty good idea, so she placed her gifts under the tree and headed off.
Hitsuzen
Tanvir would receive a wooden treasure chest, and inside this treasure chests was a assortment of fermented mushrooms, little mud pies, and fish tightly packaged that looked like they had been fermenting for far too long. if the smell was anything to go by. There were also a few pearls in the bottom. There was also a mimikyu on the chest
Quote:
"Hope you find these to your liking - Signed Pokerus
Kaiyumi
Xiu would also recieve a wooden treasure chest box, although it's contents were much nicer, ranging from a cookbook on tantalizing Halloween sweets, a foxfire plush, a cute little apron, and a carton of cookies.

Hope your businesses is going well, let me know if you need help - Signed Pokerus

Even Deacon got a present. It was a new guitar with a note attached to it.

Camilla was more then happy to take advantage of the service the elves were providing! Last year, she'd hand delivered the gifts... By sneaking into everybody's rooms in her natural form... Not only was it exhausting, it was dangerous... No, this time she would do the sensible thing and hand over her carefully wrapped packages to flesh eating elves!
merrily, her sock bedecked tail sways as she hands over the packages and the appropriate amount of seeds! She hoped her friends liked what she got them!
phantompanther13
For Carlos His box contained various toys filled with Qhatnip, a few boxes of premium tea, a few nice new tea cups with ornate patterns, and a new table cloth. Yes, it was a big box...
For Andrew She simply filled the box with various Scaremus related food treats. She wasn't really sure what he liked besides food...
Steal
For Keen Camilla bought her various outfits in various shades of grey and a huge minipet care package!
For Shiki Camilla stuffed in as much fluffy things as she could get a hold of! A Fluffy robe, slippers, tail warmer, coat, shirt, night pants, hat, night cape, and bed set! All the fluff! She also threw in a few things to help the fox boil care for his Foxfires, such as brushes and premium foxfire shampoo.
Sheyenne Thunderstorm
For Shayne Camilla got him a huge minipet care package specially put together to care for Plossom and Treats! She also bought him a new outfit and various things for him room, like paintings and such to brighten the place up!
For Taika She bought various Manga/Anime/And Video Game Boxsets she knew Taika liked... This one cut into her funds more then any other... Who knew all that stuff was so expensive...?
[A.V.]
For Maya Camilla filled up her box with as much seasonal meats as she could! She just hoped the elves didn't catch wind of all the meat inside...
Meegane
For AJ AJ's box was heavy because Camilla filled it with various baking utensils such as cast iron skillets and baking sheets as well as jars of flour and sugar... She hoped the elves wouldn't get into this either...
Myoukin
For Kari Camilla really wasn't sure what to get Kari honestly... She didn't know the ghoul all that well yet... Seeing as how Kari always had a scarf, Camilla decided to buy the girl a whole bunch of them in various colors and patterns... She just hoped she wasn't embarrassing herself with the gift... At the very least the scarves could be returned and the seeds used for something else...
With the last gift handed over, Camilla wipes a bit of sweat from her hat covered brow... She'd carried all the packages here herself, and even with her monster strength it was a lot... She would have gotten Uru and Sorrel something, but her budget was already stretched thin... After the order was confirmed, Camilla bounces back towards her Dorm! She had a party to plan for her Minis!
Posted: Mon Dec 26, 2016 11:26 am
Several days before Giftmas came, the Amphisbaena had been prepared festive spookies, cupcakes, shortcakes, and so on to celebrate with his friends. He felt lucky that shopping for presents could be completed in one day. People came and went away, if they didn't like him, AJ had no need to ask them stay.
As a result, only three ghouls he specially picked something for, the rest would receive a bag of festive spookies and cupcakes, including their professors.
Rikku Takanashi
Sharing a same hobby, AJ knew well what the tea party loving dormouse need. A cute picnic basket for the ghoul to carry her favourite tea set around. Of course, it wasn't the only thing Camilla would receive. The boil'd arrived at her door with a beautiful afternoon tea set.
Chirigami
Maple the adorable witch could always use some encouragement. This year, he bought her a subtle but lovely dress and a pair of black boots. Those were packed together in one box, sealed up with red ribbon.
AJ also handed over a big wooden chest that the elf took it had himself slumped to the ground, he cursed and asked others to help moving it. Learning his lesson, when the boil passed the third item, the elf squinted suspiciously at him and only took it after he ensured it was light.
Last but not least, he attached a note with the package, it read:
Hey my dear witch, I know you're quite inconfident in your ability, why not starting with something easier? Like Apothecary. If you need to make potions, collecting materials would be a first step, so I brought you an Apothecary box. Inside are some empty vials, jars, tubes for you to collect specimens. I do think it's somehow like baking stuffs, don't you agree? Anyway, I also get you a new bag.
The message didn't mention about the dress and boots though.
Kaiyumi
The last one that would receive something from AJ was Xiu, who introduced him to cooking. He had a lot of respects and love towards the baku, in addition to the peace and comfort his heart feels when he's with her.
The gifts for her were wrapped up into a delicate package. Inside, there were a pair of wood-cut earrings together with two eleganthair pins. One was red like the warmth she'd give others, another was pink as if the sweetness of her personality.
The note arrived together with the presents only said the following: I missed you.
Mayaa LOVED Scaremas, but sadly she didn't have any seeds to spend buying presents for creeple. Which was odd despite how many seeds she had accumulated/won in the past, but... this was Mayaa. Things always went missing with her. And so her gift to everyone was to smother everyone in her boobs with hugs. ALL THE HUGS!!!!
----------------------
Mia decided to skip the festivities this year because she was just too jackdamn busy to bother. Maybe next year >>
----------------------
Maddie wasn't sure whether to be proud or insulted by said gift. PINK??? REALLY??? She also wasn't sure what to do with said hair ribbons considering her hair was often covered by said hood. As well, the piece of lettuce was the MOST BAFFLING THING EVER like... was it... telling her to be a vegetarian? Because if so she was going to eat them.
Thankfully she finally connected the dots (she totally didn't forget Alette's name nope) and her mouth formed an "O" in understanding. Ah. This was from Lettuce. Considering that ghoul was already... special she would let this slide. Why, she'd even send her something as a thank-you in return! And so sometime near Scaremas (or after, she was never really good with dates), Alette would find a box at her door. A box that made some weird suspicious thumping sound from time to time.
kuropeco.
TO LETTtuCE:
"THAAnsks FOor tHHHEee Geeft I HaaETE LikkKEK ItTT." ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ
The handwriting was ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS (because let's face it it's pretty damn hard holding something with those bear paws) and if it weren't for the crudely attempted drawing of a bear and... random blood splatters on the note (how even...), it might have been hard to tell it was from her.
If Alette should open said box, she would find one of Maddie's treasured minis within that she totally didn't have spares of.
----------------------
Jala had only one gift for one person. Jiten would find a box at his door come Scaremas day.
revenant aria.
To bro: u suck. Inside the box was a dead rat.
----------------------
Jasper didn't give jackshit about Scaremas 'nuff said.

Qui used to be awesome at gift giving. Even during his rather cocky and headstrong phase, he was still of sound mind enough to know and like gifting to those he'd acquainted well with. He... hadn't met many though.... he wasn't even sure what to get for the Halloweener who had changed his new life the most. Plus.... something made the stallion feel a bit bashful in giving something to said boil... not like he'd admit to that. So he kept it simple, and had created a single gift, shoddily wrapped in old, torn cloth, and rough rope.
kuumeii
Inside the single placed present is a small carnivore skull, decorated with dark red and black gradient feathers... clearly from Qui's own wings. There's no sort of letter incorporated, just a 'from Qui'. He at least knew what a fellow war horseman would like!
Nahm liked giving presents. The holiday was a great excuse to do so.
Beejoux
Merry would recieve two flat boxes, placed on her bed while she was at class. They were wrapped together with a fine black ribbon with cheery little skulls on it, and the tag read From your boils - the gifts had apparently been a joint effort, unsurprisingly.
One box contained a sleek, low-backed dress in deep blood red with a long slit up the thigh and an elegantly fringed lace shawl in a slightly deeper red, tailored very nicely to her measurements. The other box contained an outfit that also involved lace and was made specially for her, but was decidedly less respectable.
Eight
Junko's gift, delivered to her apartment, was a gift certificate to a very nice cooking store. The accompanying cared read, For some nice toys for a gorgeous ghoul <3
Ice Queen
Roch would get a large envelope with an arrangement for a new song inside, accompanied by a note reading, Hit me up for some scaraeoke sometime, bro~
Baneful
Zar would find a small, neatly-wrapped box delivered to the house for him. Inside is a nicely made tie with no maker's tag and a pair of cufflinks shaped like fangs.
