Giftmas!

[indigo_league]

With Christmas scooting ever closer, it's time to start thinking about the real reason for the season and that is gifts. Yes, yes, joy to all, peace on earth etc etc, but deep down what we all want to do is tear some wrapping paper off boxes and be dazzled by the contents.

In order to keep things a bit organised, we'll be putting this up as a central gift-giving post, and it will feature three things.

★★ Arceus' gift As many of you long term players might already know, Arceus tends to drop a few gifts on the people he has brought here on Christmas day. And this year is no different! These gifts will be revealed on December the 25th, so please check back then to see what your character will be receiving. And yes, these gifts will go out to all. Arceus doesn't judge. Maybe he should, but he doesn't. ★★ Secret Santa Though these gifts won't officially be delivered until the 25th, this post will also feature a thread where you can post up the gifts your character has gotten their Secret Santa recipient. Feel free to start posting these up as soon as this post goes up (we are not going to make you wait) ★★ Your gifts And finally, your gifts! If your character is the kind to get their friends a bunch of things, feel free to use this post to distribute the offerings. Much easier than hitting up a bunch of inboxes! If you would rather distribute your characters' gifts individually in various inboxes, feel free to do so! This post is merely an option for people who'd like to keep things in one central location.

Now with that all out of the way, let us take a moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and for those that don't celebrate, just kind of a Cool Weekend.

As mods, we'd like to thank you all for all your effort and joy, for every badge you've submitted, every prom that was ruined, and just all the various crimes committed by our dedicated (and some not so) rockets. A new year approaches, and with it, new opportunities, new plots and CR, but hopefully still and forever, the same amount of fun!

Once more, A Happy Christmas, a delightful Saturday, and a wonderful 2022.

Seriously, 2022, the bar is super low here, don't disappoint us.

Gifts From Louie

[talkyourwayout]

Louie's gifts will be distributed by Peso, his Corviknight. Recipients, beware! They may find the Pokemon fixes up their clothing and/or hair with her beak-- Very carefully, she won't hurt anyone! She's just very maternal.

Gifts that Louie sends out are the following:
For Rainer, a dream journal a quick little note saying he found this in Goldenrod and thought of her.

For Claudia, a set of watercolor paints.

For Doppio, two scented candles in green and red, labeled "Viridian Forest" and "Cheri Berry" respectively, along with some of the hot coco mix Louie was selling at the Christmas Market and accompanying mix-ins Louie used, as well as directions on amounts to add.

For Scrooge, a set of notebooks and pens of fairly nice quality. In the note, he points out that he realized Scrooge is starting from the bottom again here, so he figured stuff like this would help him work his way up.

For Emporio, this shirt with an attempted explanation, detailed elsewhere.

Finally, Rei receives a giftcard of rather sizable value, and a note that she should use this to pick some things out for herself.

All gifts also include a note wishing the recipient Happy Holidays, which are signed by Louie.
