@ pizza K so you're first because you're bae. You're the bestest bae anyone could ask for. I know you're, super stressed and things are sucky af right now but I'm always in your corner bb. I will help you fight the bad guys, or the good guys (I'm a good chaotic neutral here) and I will be your bae til end of days. <3

ILY!!

@ cherie You're a beautiful woman and a wonderful person. Never forget how special you are. <3

@ bathory @ jazmine You two in particular have been fucking stellar this year to me. Idk what I'd do without you. <3 Thank you so much for everything!! You are such beautiful, beautiful souls. <3

@ disasters You are such a wonderful soul. Talking with you, getting to know you, has been such a wonderful privilege. <3

I'm pinging the group because this is for all of you. You've become such an important part of my life this past year and idk what I'd do without you ladies. You brighten my worst days and you tell me when I'm being dumb about something, I appreciate each of you very much. <3

@ blazhy @ waijay @ silvanesti @ weasley @ lyonesse @ ursa I know we're not bff's, we're relatively newer at being friends/friendly but thank you for opening up your lives to me and allowing a nobody like me into the fold. :x You're all such wonderful individuals and I really hope we can continue to be friends. :)

@ dot I very much hope you're doing okay sweetie. Its been awhile and you're on my heart and mind a lot. <3

@ hush @ andraste @ jpeg You ladies continue to astound me with how graceful you are in everything you do, even if it doesn't seem like it to yourselves. I love you all very much!

@ burton Getting to meet you this year was seriously one of my biggest highlights of 2017. I love my Kaykay so damn much and I'm so happy we got to spend some time together!! ^_^

@ Mallory I love how we talk whenever we can and granted its usually about our dudes, its still nice to be able to gush and not feel dumb. xD I love talking with you. <3 I hope you're having a wonderful time. ^_^

I know we're not friends, we're friendly. I get the feeling you tend to be guarded and yo that's totes understandable; you haven't had an easy time. Idk if this is weird or not but even though we're not technically "friends", i still think of you fondly and I just hope all good things for you because you deserve them. From what I've seen over the years I've been on Subeta, you've never not been kind. No matter what was happening, you've been kind. Even when you had every right to lose your shit, you didn't do it openly and in a dramatic fashion which I respect about you a great deal. And even if we never become super close friends, I'm glad that I get to see these aspects of you in general.

I just wanted you to know that. :)

Starting my list with you again. Perks of being the husband, yeah? :P You are my absolute everything. So much has changed in our lives since October! We finally have our own place, even if it is just an apartment. I think we've handled the transition really well. I know we were both terrified that we were just talking ourselves up and we were afraid of not being able to adult properly, but, look at us! Two months in the apartment, we haven't fallen behind on bills or house chores or anything of the sort. We still splurge and have an occasional date/night out. We still have subscriptions to games and such. We still buy new games. The point is, we're doing it. And we're doing it together. Thank you for being my support through everything. The best thing? I am so freaking excited to get to spend my first Christmas (my first ever holiday, period) with your family. I'll miss my family this year, but you've gone ten years without having a holiday with yours. I think I'll live, somehow. :) I love you so incredibly much, Koibito. For eternity and a half, and then some.

I miss you soooooo much!!!! ; 3; Our mini adventure to Dick Blick's was the absolute best. I'm so glad you were able to wait until we got off work so we could catch a chance to hang out!! Also, I can't begin to thank you enough for allowing us to switch you cars for our drive to Georgia. ; 3; You have no idea how much this means for us. ALSO I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU OPEN YOUR PRESENT!!!!

You are so incredibly sweet. I wanted to tag you in the last thread. I wanted to make my own thread inspired by yours. Life just kind of got hectic for a bit. So I am making sure I tag you this time. You have been such an inspiration. You're an amazing, positive influence on the Subeta community and it's hard for me to express just how much that means. I've always wanted to get to know you better, more personally, but between being shy and battling an inferiority complex, I've just creepily lurked and smiled from afar. Even this post has me screaming internally, but I know I couldn't forgive myself if I missed another opportunity to simply say thank you for everything.

@Cresenta You are so amazing. I know I tell you all the time that I love you, but I really mean it. Meeting you is one of the best memories I will have of Subeta, and I hope that when the Subeta chapter of my life comes to a close we remain friends. We can follow each other to a new hobby site! Or just chill on Discord. I need to get your Discord. :P I really don't do FB all that often. Just know that I adore you. That I admire you. That I appreciate you. You have a heart of gold. Your kindness and generosity know no bounds. You're always so open and friendly with everyone. I can't think of a single thing I would change about you. Thank you so much for being my friend.

Hey sweetie pie! Thank you so much for being my friend. You're always checking in on me and doing everything you can to cheer me up, and I can't begin to tell you how much that means to me. Thank you for always being there to listen. Also, you always make super gorgeous HAs and I'm mad jelly!

I know a lot of people with a heart of gold, but you seriously take the cake. Whenever I see your name on my friends list, or in my news feed, or a ping, or anything, I just smile. You exude warm feelings, whether or not you mean to. Anytime I think you can't impress me more than you already do, you prove me wrong. You always go above and beyond. I am so lucky to have you in my life. Thank you for just being you.

I can't begin to thank you enough. The gifts you sent me tied to your messages in those really trying times of my life... You've left a lasting impression on me, and I want you to know how much it meant to me, and how much it still does now. I will never forget. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Yooooou're such an amazing sweetie pie, too! I'm so glad to have met you! You always run really fun events for the holidays and plots, and it's always such a treat to get to just hang out and chat! You're very down to earth and level headed, and it's so refreshing to meet someone so like minded!

I miss talking to you so much!! I love all of you in framily, but talking to you was one of the biggest highlights for me. It may have just been having someone I could vent to about Kroger and you actually understood, but I like to think it's because I genuinely enjoyed your company. ;) Buuuut with as much as I miss you, I'm still so happy for you to have your little guy in your life now!! I can't believe how much he's grown!! I love your, darling! I wish you and yours all the best this holiday season!

PLEASE STAHP RELEASING STARS! And by please stahp I mean YES PLZ GIMME MOAR STARS I NEED THEM ALL omg I'm so addicted. I may or may not be stalking the Sparkling Midnight and the Clean~! I feel like I've won some mystical lottery where I just get to know and be friends with all the sweetest people ever, because you're also so amazingly kind and lovable and sweet and just unf. <3 I love you so much. When I first stumbled into the chat, you were so welcoming! You've always been there when I've had questions or just needed someone to talk to. You're never hesitant to loan items for achievements and such, and you're so super nice for holding things for me and ahhhhh I just want you to know how much I appreciate you!

[inhale] I'm gently gonna spill my guts!!

is the sweetest person I've ever known. She's someone that will pick me up when I feel down by showing me BTS memes and videos, she will comfort me and listen to me as well. I love how she's strong, patient and incredibly gentle even tho she doesn't always feel like she is. I'm happy to be able to support her as well during rough times in our lives. I'm glad I've found her and I wish we could meet for real someday! Funnily enough, we weren't able to 'click' the first time we were talking, but then something sparked and we were able to connect. I'm incredibly grateful. Ilu lil fuzzy caterpillar ❤️!!

is like my astral universe twin from another womb lmao. You always make the most beautiful avatars with the most beautiful and crazy colours. You're my inspiration!

omg guuuurl you know WHY YOU'RE HERE, MY FABULOUS PARTNER IN CRIME!

is a gentle and beautiful soul. Always willing to lend an helpful ear whenever I need it. Thank you for being you. I'm really glad to be your friend and to count you in my own circle.

You are the cutest sweetest ever. We may not talk much but you are still one of my favorite people on here. Keep being the amazing and talented precious pie you are!

[.oru] Probably my newest friend but no less dear to me! I enjoy talking creative stuffs with you (and trying to brine you into drawing for me)! You are crazy creative and talented and I'm glad I got to know you even just a little bit.

Omg the happiest most cheerful person I know. I'm so glad to see you around again! Congratulations and many blessings on your recent nuptials!

Even though our conversations are mostly about trades I still enjoy chatting with you. I appreciate how you've helped me achieve my goals and I'm always hoping i can return the favor. Thank you for being my friend!

Hi! We're actually not really friends but you seem like such a sweet and adorable person.

this is so very sweet of you!!! I would love to particapate but i suck at words. <3

Woah so many gifts. :o Seriously Ale you so generous!!!

Thanks girl for always being there to hear my first world problems. You are an amazing friend and one of the best Ive had in my entire life eventhough we never met. Thanks for always telling me Im freaking awesome (and REALLY thinking it) even when I do poorly in life or produce terrible artistic stuff haha

Big hugs

- You are such a loving soul and have one of the most golden hearts of anyone I know. You've been there for me this year and I totally love and appreciate you for it and just because you're you. Also, who else am I gonna talk Doctor Who with now that I'm a huge fan?! ;) <3

- Two words, my dear friend...PETRIFIED TURD XD Seriously though, you are such a good friend and you crack me up on a daily basis, which admittedly is not an easy thing to do!! <3 Never stop being a good mama to your girls, never stop talking about them or anything else on here. You are awesome and you like Queenie have been there for me this year and I appreciate you so much for that.

- You were one of my first friends on here back when I was Aerynna and we've kinda stuck together since. Thanks for sticking around with me even through that rough time when half the site hated me. <3 Much love, my friend!

- You are such a sweetheart, don't ever try to tell me any different. You have a wonderful heart and such a brilliant mind. Also, you are part of why I ended up watching and falling in love with Sailor Moon all over again <3

- We are not on at the same time as often as we used to be, however, you like Aries are one of my oldest friends on here. You are funny and loveable and I am so proud to call you my friend. <3

and - I love you two crazy wenches to pieces <3 We met on Gaia and it turned out we were over here together too. I'm so damn proud to have you both as friends and as part of my life on here, on Gaia and on FB. We WILL meet in person someday, I guarantee that.

and - I love you both to pieces, I see you both as the online older sisters I never got to have in real life. <3 You are both a joy to talk to and be around and you just plain rock. I can't say much more than that about you two! :)

- STOP LURKING AND COME OUT OF HIDING, I KNOW YOU ARE THERE, B. XD Seriously, you're a character and never fail to enlighten me about something I may not have known or are incorrect about. I need that in my life and I thank you for that!

- You are such a sweetie <3 I am so glad we added each other here and on FB because you are pretty much my ideal BFF, now if only we lived closer right?!

- You are such a sweetheart and I wish you were on here more!

- I knew you from Gaia as well and just recently found you on here again. I'm so glad we found each other again <3 You are such a good person with such an amazing heart. Don't ever think any different. Also, as the saying goes, old friends are sometimes the best friends!!

Everyone in (ASP is Adult Subetan Players) - I love you all!! Best cult I have ever been a part of, I may not know all of you all that well, but I would like for that to change! Those of you that I know well, I adore because you're fun and supportive! ASP RULES! I also tagged you all here so you can join in on this giveaway <3

Additions: - You are such a sweetheart and I wish we'd made friends sooner. You are welcome to talk to me about anything and I absolutely enjoy talking to you in the SB when you're in there. :) - We made friends here first I think, and then found each other on Gaia. You are the Orange Queen and always will be ;) Glad we're friends!! - Skye you are such a strong and amazing woman, you have gone through so much and I admire your strength through it all <3

I know there are more of you I want to do this for, but I am tired right now so I am going to reserve the right to return and add to this later <3

- thanks SO much for doing this!!
