Noa is a tricky friend to shop for depending on who asks. But in this case, Crash gets him an entire catnip plant to care for, and a mystery box of pet toys. Of course, if catnip does nothing for the manticore, people say that some dogs enjoy a lesser effect.
Altair receives a tin of homemade cinnamon-sugar cookies in the shape of cartoon gems, decorated with glittery sugar crystals in a literal rainbow of colors.
Ryou is gifted... a strange wooden mask decorated with paints and feathers? Not the one that's hanging in Crash's home, but a freshly carved duplicate. Crash helpfully explains with a note that through the mask represents his guardian's protection, fully "charged" through a super secret magic word. Sometimes the path to escaping harm is the ability to run through it. There's no actual protection magic unless one refers to a mun's mercy.
Atem in comparison to such a serious gift receives a knitted gold scarf. It's warm and fits most sorts of necks. What is Crash going to do with you, oh problematic and heavily traumatized friend? This comes with an inside joke that reads: "Not bad thing."
Sparkling Cookie, because LOTS OF PEOPLE see the former cookie as a fellow person-adjacent being first and foremost, gets a variety tin of popcorn (butter, cheddar, caramel) that he can share with Cheesecake.
The Hill House! It's turning into a tradition, two jugs of fresh-brewed, non-alcoholic wumpa cider! Emphasis on non-alcoholic with a more over-the-top note than last year's. Maybe that will be tradition too.
But also Crash felt bad about Sonic's... everything, so glittery sugar cookies shaped like... heh.
Bruno is the real toughie. What do you get a shade that's one of the ghostliest among the shades? Secret Santa Crash ran this wind chime while thrift shopping.
