NATTENS-GIFTING MEME [AND RECEIVING MEME]

NATTENSFEST GIFT EXCHANGING MEME

AND YOU GET COOKIES AND YOU GET COOKIES-

The Holidays are here, and for many of us, it's literal! With all the hustle and bustle of the Real Live Holidays, it can get pretty stressful though- and for that matter way too draining to put the same kind of focus on hitting inboxes one by one, or making lists.

Which is exactly what this meme is for! How it Works is simple- all you do is make a comment. It could have a list of goodies planned out for your monster's CR. It could be a simple statement of who should've got something, without specifics. Maybe a comment that just says, 'So and so made cookies for everyone', or 'So and so is a huge Scrooge, and got you nothing!' You can even leave it blank- a spot where people can drop gifts off to you instead, rather than seeking out the inbox. The world is your oyster! ....Tree. Oystree.

At any rate, happy Nattensfest, happy holidays, and stay toasty out there!

From Beat!

[soundsurfing]

Beat's gifts all come later, because he was sadly focused on a few things only in December, and that was being fat and sleeping in a hole in park. And stealing and eating everything he could get his hands on.


All his CR:
One thing this did was give him a better palate of things like meats, cheese, and the like. So everyone he knows will be gifted a surprisingly well done charcuterie board, carefully wrapped. Each one will contain: fruits, nuts, crackers, meats, cheeses, vegetables, and a variety of spreads from sweet to spicy. Each item is handily labeled, so no one is surprised by something they'd rather not be. They all receive a note as well, thanking them for being his friend, as well as a personal little blurb aimed at them. Something sweet and stupidly sappy. Except for Lusamine, she gets a note that just says >:(.

Click for the rest!

Josh:

Will be noted in Inbox.

Neku:

Will be noted in Inbox.

Nanami:

A Praxinoscope, crafted of polished light wood with several various game consoles etched in and around it. Several strips of drawn art are included. They all feature Nanami in various situations; walking, flying, sitting under a tree with a small breeze waving leaves and her hair around, etcetera. There's even a strip of paper depicting her and Shoka walking together. Are they holding hands? Maybe.

Shoka:

A Praxinoscope, crafted of polished light wood with several various FanGO monsters etched in and around it. Several strips of drawn art are included. They all feature a certain Pony-girl in her hoodie, doing various things; walking, swimming, being sassy with hand motions and tilting her head, and one of her kicking a familiar yellow squirrel. There's even a strip of paper depicting her and Nanami walking together. Are they holding hands? Maybe.

She also gets a small drawn picture of what Beat remembers about Ayano and Susukichi, and her there in with them.

Peter:

There's a note saying: "next year, we do Hanukkah proper yo but until then!"
The note is accompanied by seven small gifts, and yes the food is edible!! Latkes. Sufganiyot (as close as Beat could get them without knowing anything about them beyond what Josh managed to tell him). A tail warmer for his tail. Feet mittens so he can still grabby around but keep his paws warm cause no one thinks of the frozen rat feet. Some chocolates. Free vouchers for the spicy dogs at their dog place.

And finally, a small picture sized graffiti painting of Peter in his spider-man gear swinging through Bavan- and he's not alone, the members of Web that Beat knows about, are following in all their own little styles maybe some inspiration taken from Felfri. Just friends having fun in the air. The style isn't Beats, he commissioned it from Neku.

Gladion:

Gladion receives a note that lists a lot of things. A thank you for the gifts he gave Beat and Junior ("She aint stopped shakin that chicken plush, yo, an whackin herself in the head with the arms so hard I think she gonna lose brain cells. An' the postcard, the midnight form kinda look like Mukuro and now she wants to go see her.") There's also an offer of Gladion to come on by whenever (an address included) and take Junior whenever he'd like to just walk with her or stuff. ("She's your friend too now, yo, you can't jus' not come see her sometimes.")

And art. The style is Beats, bold and colorful in splashes and graffiti lines, depicting Gladion standing with a Midday Lycanroc. They're both in a battle stance (a random one he has no idea how battling works still in Pokemon worlds) and looking confident and tuned into each other.

Altair:

A spray-paint on canvas of Altair (with a little artistic license to depict the glow his rocks give off under blacklight, muted a little to not over power the painting), with his shadow stretching out and up in the form of a Peregrine. It's carefully delivered covered, as he knows Altair likes to keep the fact of who he is hidden. There's a note, thanking Altair for trying to pull him back in Felfri, trying to bring him to his senses. He appreciates it, even if it didn't work.

Reira:

A custom hoodie with a stylized portrait of Reira on it in a cool ass battle pose. The hoodie has been altered with animal ears on the top, and velcro spots for her own ears so she can wear it properly. As well as a note thanking her for her gifts to him, as well as a few cute pins he remembers from home, redrawn by memory, to test it out with.

Reverie:

Art of Reverie and Phil together, tasteful and masterfully done, set in a rather ornate black wood frame. Obviously commissioned, because the style is way beyond what Beat can do. There is definitely a note included, telling Rev "telling her not to lick them just means she's gonna lick them, you know this right? ... Unless you mean me, then hey!"
