Sorry my reply is so late. I'm out of state visiting 's family, so I occasionally get internet on my phone.

If I may, I would love to ask for one of the following: 1000 credit gift card Super sweet holiday pie strands Flimsy serene kitten fabric Pop colored heatwave soles Checked out lash kit

You have not been the worst friend! Life here has been unraveling so fast and I can't get online to talk to you as much as I want to so I get it completely! I'm sorry I missed the 20th, we'll talk soon hopefully so I can see your beautiful face! I wanna hear everything: the good, the bad, and everything in between!

I can't believe it's been almost two years. I don't miss the 2 hours of typing but I do miss communicating with you on any level. You are the prettiest thing makeup or not! I can't believe you don't see that! I wanna talk to you all the time tipsy or not! XD You're one of the most real people I've ever met and I'm so lucky to have you in my life. You're a true friend and I couldn't ask for more! :)

I'll have to look into it! I already got Skype just for you! XD I hope we can vent on there soon. When are you free?

The amount you spend on me is not important hun! It's the thought that counts!

I love you too and I miss you always! Get back to me for a time to skype and I'll see you soon my dear! :)

Oh my goodness, thank you for the praise! You're always so wonderful too! I keep making new HAs and saving them, because I can't part with this one. Happy Lumi, may everything good come your way <3

oh lord i've been traveling and didn't get to come do the rest of these ;; awh. i don't need anything, i just love this thread ❤️ feel free to pass the prize on to someone else!!

I know I'm late for the give-a-way but I want to put in my compliments if I may. I'm not great at this so appologise in advance.

The first group I joined on Subeta and I've never looked back. As strange as it sounds I get very shy on forums and struggle to post to talk to people. But during the Survival celebrations I needed to for kisses and candy hearts. Unfortunately I'd had a bad experience when I tried last time and wasn't sure if I could. It wasn't called the chatterbox then but the members were starting to gather. I joined in the conversation and received such a warm welcome. It helped me start to chat more often and have fun on the forums. Through the ups and downs I've had since joining the chatterbox has been there to make things feel less stressful and make them more fun and for that I cannot thank you guys enough.

The first person I had a conversation on the forums with and encouraged me to join in. You're warm, friendly, have great ideas and are so supportive. You tell wonderful stories and helped create the chatterbox. Thank you so much for all you do. Whatever we come up with you join in and encourage us to keep doing fun things. I know I wouldn't be half as active and met the friends here I have if you hadn't pulled me forward with your kindness.

There are times when words really don't do a person justice. This is one of those times. You are amazing. I could get a thesaurus worth of descriptions for all you've achieved and it would hardly scratch the surface. Since we first started chatting we've shared stories, ideas, hard times and fun times. If things are tough I feel I can talk to you about it and I hope you know you can do the same. One of these days I'm sure we'll meet face to face and have a wonderful time where ever we choose to go. Until then, you make Subeta one of my favorite places to be with your humor, your warmth, your bottomless kindness and support you could steady mountains on.

A person I was chatting with suggested I join in with the Wayward Squirrel as it seemed rather fun and I enjoy role play so I agreed. Unfortunately they had to drop out and I found myself something of a spare so the amazing GreenRowan (who we'll get to) suggested I join in with some of the others looking for teams. This was how I met shylarah. You have proved to be a wonderful leader. No matter the puzzle, the task or the occasional group issue you solved it with aplomb and lead us through a fantastic adventure. Every time I join I have a wonderful time but I know the reason is because of the group and your vast imagination that I do. When I suggested a friend you made them so welcome. I'm looking forward to the next time I can join up and we can have another adventure again. Until then, thank you for helping me through my first few steps in online adventuring. It's been a blast every time!

Another from the Wayward Squirrel and someone I just love to rp with. You have so many fun ideas and you've helped me refine and up my writing skills. Every time we rp I cannot wait for the next chapter to see what you'll do. Your art is amazing. It's beautiful, inspired and always makes me think. Be it writing, painting or sculpting you explore the world in such a wonderful way. I look forward to where the story goes.

Thank you for all the effort you put in to make every adventure fun for everyone. You have such patience with us it's amazing. Even if I can't join in I love reading your story pieces. Thank you for making everyone welcome, making a real sense of community and telling a wonderful story every time.

Another member of the chatterbox who has been a partner in crime and great fun every time. Fun ideas, new things to do and willing to support in any venture you've kept us all involved and interested. I always look forward to your posts to see what's new or what idea you've come up with for a game to play. Being able to chat about the weird things that happen here in the place we call home is fun too. Thank you for being part of the chatterbox.

Two stalwarts of the chatterbox crew and always willing to offer support in any venture. If we're running something and we need someone to step in due to real life commitments you can't go wrong when you call on either of these two. Fun, supportive and with a wonderful sense of design in their HAs it is always a pleasure to hear from you. Thanks for bringing so much fun to the chatterbox. (And pugs.)

A newer member of the chatterbox and one who has joined in with energy and fun. The chatterbox has never been so active. Thank you for stepping in when we've been distracted and keeping the thread going. It's brought new people in and made this year's Secret Santa much easier to run. I hope you're around for the next event!

Caring, enthusiastic and with wonderful HAs Mage is another staple of the chatterbox who is always willing to lend a hand. Thanks for joining in with our random ideas and coming up with even more. ^_^

ASDGFLRKW I can't even. snugs I'm actually not that great a leader. It was just something special about the Fellowship that made it work -- probably the fact that we didn't really need a proper leader, but all worked together. You were a pleasure to play with, and I loved Quercus and her animal companions. If things were tough, I knew you'd have my back, and she'd have Jean's. I do hope to go adventuring with you again sometime. I still have that picture you drew me of my chars, and I still love it to pieces. <3

you should read this too, my fine Fellowship friend! Especially since Slashy is right on all counts. You have such a distinctive style with your art. It reminds me a little of Tim Burton, actually, but it's definitely all your own. Your characters have depth to them, and you write with a skill that can be hard to find among rpers. I wish you had more time for rping, because I miss you and Ven and Devin and Liana and all the rest.

and you, because you joined us as well! You might not have been there right at the beginning, but you jumped right in and it took no time at all to feel like you were always part of the team. You're kind, generous, funny, and creative. I'm glad Slashy suggested you join!

Honestly, however many other teams I play on, the Fellowship will always have a special place in my heart. <3 And it wouldn't be possible at all without who is the most amazing squirrel-wrangler ever to wrangle a wayward squirrel.

Speaking of. Did you see the you guys? I showed Rowan, but I would like to point out that WS surely has yet another mascot now. Its smile is even the smile of the slightly unhinged.

You are both so supportive and kind to me I think I'm either going to cry or explode into a cloud of glitter. Maybe both. I appreciate both of you dearly, and am very happy to be able to express myself with you. I still have the picture you commissioned Shy, of the original Fellowship. As well as the gift art of Ven that I adore. Someday I hope I'll have enough time to reunite with you both for another WWS adventure! I've even been playing actual DnD so I think I have a better perspective on how to play. ❤️ Thank you both for being so wonderful always, and for your constant patience with me ❤️

Actual D&D is great! I have a group -- I'm putting the finishing touches on a rather anti-trope half-orc today. ^.^;; And I have a FATE game, which is a different system, but that one's online.

You'd better have not just one but two pics, because there were two -- I got another the second year. If you don't have that one too, let me know and I will see to fixing it.

Exploding into glitter is always a suitable response. Crying glitter is acceptable, but not as good. <3 I really do hope we can get the gang together again, or just drag a few people off for an rp on the side. I'm looking forward to Masque, as always. we should stuff Quercus in a dress and make her go!

And everyone else who pinged me with your kind words! I've been meaning to thank you for your lovely words. I have read them I just never got around to make a post of my own, but thank you so much, I love you so much! <3

I'm hoping to join a D&D group this year. We're nearly set up. Because we're all a bit new we've agreed to go with a premade adventure and go from there. I'm really looking forward to it. Quercus at the Masque would probably involve Tipper on the buffet table, Star showing up in odd places around the room chasing interesting things and Quercus trying to understand what was happening and not destroying her dress in the process. She's done big events and steampunk before but this would be a pretty steep learning curve for her! If you wanted to rp it I could set up a small thread in the rp forum and we could give it go. Just some silliness with our characters, nothing dramatic.

I'm not sure if Venom would come near the Masque but you'd be welcome if you can join.

I adore you!! I do miss talking with you. You are a darling and one of the kindest people I've known as well. Plus, you do have a great sense of humour. Much loves, dear lady!!!

We should do this! And you'd be surprised -- Ven's been to Masquerade! It actually went well. Uh...aside from Raven's char Sorn trying to kill someone (he's a drow, and he didn't mean anything by it).

I’ve been traveling and just saw your post! Are those prizes listed on the first page still available? If so, anything at all would be amazing, but since you asked, I especially love the: Flimsy Serene Kitten Fabric, Gryphon Holiday Pie Strands, either of the makeup CW’s, or the 1,000 Credit Gift Card.

Im glad that my sentiment to my friends touched you. I hope you have had a memorable and beautiful holiday season.
