... and this is also the first time I'm getting rid of my post formatting. I think I've completely reconciled myself to the fact that the forums are mostly uniform, now. but please don't shoot me if I start to do it again, out of habit!

I would have made this board in the Small Talk forum, just as I used to, but I haven't been active enough to justify it.

I apologise to everyone for not leaving any tree gifts this year. I intended to start sending out giftboxes on the 24th, but I spent my Christmas with my orphaned cousins, this year. I even wanted to send these out earlier than that, but between cleaning my dorm (I'm moving out on February,) helping my mother out, being sick, and spending most of the sparse time I have online on deviantART, I have not been able to check Subeta that much.

I swear, it has really been on my mind since the start of NOVEMBER (I had a bigger plan back then,) and I feel like a horrible person (and friend) Most of my gifts are likely to end up sent on the new year (since I'll be with my mother from the 28th until the first of January -- not sure about my internet access there,) but I'll try to send them out earlier than that!

I'm hoping that will change this coming year, i.e. I'll be around more often than I was in the previous days!

I wasn't even expecting to receive ANYTHING this year with my inactivity, AND THEN YOU GUYS DID THIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH! (I have much less events on that screenshot than I did when I logged-in, but I mass-deleted a bunch of group pings. v_v)

You liar, you sent me much more than just Frezfaws D: YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO SEND ME THIS MUCH STUFF OMG u___u You already sent me a lot for my birthday and then i'm just but thank you, really. I'm really flattered you can still think of sending me something despite my inactivity!

YOU'RE ANOTHER ONE, I DID NOT EXPECT THIS AT ALL I think it was last year (around Luminaire as well, or maybe after?) when I expressed interest in this kimono, and then I thought I'd have to save for a few thousand CSC to get one colour.

I would have been happy with any colour, but THIS is the one I like most in the set ;o; I appreciate every single thing you've given me, cry. Keep making amazing art, but make sure you're compensated for it fairly! ;-;

I remember when you're one of the few people I could catch online (since you went on IRC during the afternoons in my time zone.) While we don't really talk that often, I miss seeing you around. ;_;

Hope you've been doing well, especially with your studies! Seeing you around makes me happy -- you really didn't have to send me anything at all, but I really appreciate it! u///u

I already told you, but the Christmas song fairy anon you did made me smile a lot. It took me until yesterday to get to the gifts you sent from the 10th (?) all the way to the 25th, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I didn't know more than 3/4ths of the songs!

The fairy is a gift enough, but thank you as well for everything you left under my tree!

u___u !!! My eyes teared up when I saw that you sent me something, because I really didn't expect it, but I was shocked to see exactly what it was! The background is beautiful omg

I'm happy I chanced upon your dA account, because I'm excited to see you do more art in the future (you're off to a cute start with your digital work!) ;v;

I miss tsos and I miss you all :c MAYBE I'll be around more often next year. I HOPE. But everytime I go on IRC, there's maybe only 2 other people idling, huhu I'm kind of laughing at Nich too, because he sent me a comment about my tree, but somehow, he seems to have found my invisible tree anyway :'D

Seriously though, I didn't even have the time to choose a tree for this year, LOL ;_;

Belated happy birthday! I hope you were able to enjoy it and get some time off for yourself! :> (Looks like I'll have to get something with twice the gravity I intended, then!)

!!!!! you strike again! One day, I swear to get revenge on you @

I can't thank you enough for the anonymous plots you've shared with us (and the ORAS help through tumblr.) Even if not in an anonymous format, I'm looking forward to see more of your characters in the future! ;o;

I'm sorry, your username makes me laugh everytime I see it -- I keep reading it in this weird mental voice! xD Thank you so much for the tokens :>

you're sneakier than a snake! fft there's something i wanted to give you, but i wanted to make sure that you didn't already receive it for Lumi/still want the item ;o;

SCREAMING I love you for making a Slytherin tribute! I'm not very huge into HP but that's my favourite house ;o;

YES, I RECEIVED THE STRANDS. Thank you so much! I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting on the payment last time, though. I wasn't even sure if you still had spares of it or if you sold out! Really didn't mean to hold things up! u__u

I still feel horrible for the sketch I drew of your HA in that thread. I was told by Blanche that you had it on your forumset at one point, and I was really shocked. The dress was a pleasant surprise, because I've been looking for it ever since its release (I've had no luck finding it on the r200 forums.) Thank you for this, as well as for the amazing art you're providing to the site!

I hope your fingers have been better (and that the rehab is going well/went well!) You've been doing a lot for jb and The Round Up, and I want to thank you for that!

D: I felt awful about outbidding you on that one design earlier this year. I know we didn't really talk much this year (if at all,) but I want to thank you for everything! (I still have everything I have been sworn to keep from last year, and I won't part with any of it! :) )

pardon errors and weord phrasing, i'm supposed to be asleep right now (and i'm down with flu and a migraine again hhh)

Pff, did you really think anyone would forget you? Silly u.u But anyways, GO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND SPEND TIME WITH YOUR FAMILY 8D The fact that you liked the gifts is good enough for me ;)

@ pax

Hi guys, I'm sorry if any of you got this ping twice! People not getting personal pings has been an issue all over the forums lately, I had that issue on my own thanks topic D: I think needed to run out and get some rest so yeah x_x trying to speed things up a little bit for her!

Thanks for the ping! I had no idea that only the first 10 pings of the post worked. Shows how much I've been on the forums lately XD

uhuhu you'll never get me. ;o Take care, and happy holidays!

Well I am a Slytherin -slither slither- and yush slytherin house is the best!! if you need more for TC's let me know

Glad you liked it...I figured a phasma bg would be a winner even if someone didn't like HP xD

thanks for the ping, lets hope they fix this for a change

You're welcome! ^^

:D you are so welcome lady! <3 boobhugs

Thank you for the birthday wishes :) Don't you worry about getting me anything at all, you silly. Compared to pretty much all your other gifts what I got you is a paltry token XD I just hope you had a lovely lumi, and that you feel better soon. Flu and migraines are no fun :( (I had a migraine all Christmas eve and Christmas day...yay! high-five)
