Wow. I am just speechless. Thank you so much to everyone who sent me gifts over the course of Luminaire and the holly jolly giveaway. I was not expecting the sheer amount of items I found under my tree. I feel absolutely, positively spoiled. Thank you all so so much. ;v; I haven't had the chance to thank you all individually or respond to your gratitudes; I'll be traveling until the 8th without anything but my phone, and navigating Subeta on mobile is . . . tricky. But once I get back, rest assured I will bombard you all with love. ♥ ♥

Until then, a massive ping procession bursting with love:

And of course, thank you to all my amazing donors over at the holly jolly giveaway. You guys kept that beautiful beast going, and I could not be more grateful to you all. I wish only that I had more time and money to shower you with the gifts you deserve. <3 As it stands, the giveaway sent out almost 12 billion sP in gifts, excluding items priced in CSC, items without a price, and items I still have yet to send out. That thread has been the biggest labour of love I've ever undertaken, and I couldn't have done it without you guys.

For my holly jolly folks, here is a list of the items given out. I've done up to only day 12 out of 21, but it's a pretty cool list to look at, even in its half complete state!

massive thanks for all the goodies under my tree (and extra things, wow!) ❤ safe travels and have a great New Years :D

and wow that list is intense! so much goodness, well done everyone ❤

I hope you liked my tiny gift and my little doodle <3

You are very welcome!! Thank you so much for all the goodies as well 😍 Have fun and safe travels!

I LOVED IT SO MUCH! I have it saved as my lock screen background ;u; <3

I only hope you tuck some of the gifts away just for your own use!

OMG!!?? Im so flattered ;;

, Thank you for everything!

<3 Thank you so much for all the goodies and for keeping it going in spite of family emergencies and holidays! :3 Safe travels and I hope you have a great New Year's!

❤ you deserve it! ❤ Have safe travels and we'll see you when you get back!

i think you deserve the greatest thanks of all for your incredible generosity this luminaire, despite whatever irl-obligations and speedbumps you may have encountered. thank you for making subeta a brighter place for so many people this month, and safe travels to you! ❤️

It was a fun thing you did, and fun to give back. Enjoy your travels and vacation.

Your signature is profound.

I love your leashed-pet's description here! 😆

thank you! ❤️ it's a double reference -- first, to a line from for whom the bell tolls by ernest hemingway:

"The world is a fine place and worth fighting for and I hate very much to leave it.”

and then to the movie seven (directed by david fincher) where morgan freeman's character quotes hemingway and adds that he only agrees with the second part.

me too. c:

thanks for doing the giveaway! it was fun! Happy new year!
