secret santa

This island was strange. Tsepha knew that, but they had hoped this weird Secret Santa thing would be an easy way to bribe themselves a new ally. They should have known an event that got you to bribe strangers would not be that simple. The list they were given should have made things easier...

Sylvi Sylvi waited by the lakeside with her chosen gifts. The moment she had seen that "Vera" was asking for jewelry, she knew exactly what she was going to get. And she was already making a quick trip there anyways, so it all worked out in the end. She had only been there a little while when...

Arno would step into the court yard, his breath fogging in the cold winter air. This was the location where he was to meet his secret santa partner. The half dragon would check his phone to make sure he wasn't to early, then checking the gift in the bag he held. While him and his parents had...

Secret Santa is a yearly tradition in Manta Carlos, an event where occupants of Manta Carlos are randomly paired up to exchange gifts with one another. The event is open to everybody on the island and is run by the city of Manta Carlos itself. Once someone has signed up, they are randomly given...

<img class="trackimg" src="https://i.imgur.com/FC6SbQK.png">Zare Blakesley Zare had never participated in anything even close to a Secret Santa before, and he had been feeling a little bit lost. Really, he probably should have shopped immediately once he'd gotten his assignment, but instead...

Colten Morey didn't exactly celebrate Christmas, but he did participate in the secret Santa program from time to time. It was a matter of great pride to select a gift that would impress whomever he was paired with each time he participated. And this was no different a situation. He'd arranged...

<style> .bluebold b{ color: #4791bd; font-weight:normal; } </style> <div class="bluebold">Li Jia An was many things — scientist, teacher, lazybones couch potato — but she wasn't social. Not at all. Who was Eilonwy Rice? How did she pronounce her name? Had she even seen her around before...

Ignoring the occasional sidelong glance he received, Fenn skittered up the MC3’s stairs and into its main room, a very lumpy and confusedly-wrapped looking present in his hands. He uh, didn’t wrap those often. He was rather glad that they were doing this in the community center. It was a...

Liron Andersen It was a bit strange, being a teacher handing off a gift to a student but Liron supposed that luck was what one made of it. Reading through the scrap of paper that her partner had provided, she thought it best to play it safe and get a little of all of listed interests. In a...

It was Fulger's first Christmas ever and he was excited. All the yummy pretty lights hung up everywhere and people getting gifts to give. In fact the only thing he didn't like was all the cold and the snow outside. Even inside, here in the nice toasty cafeteria, he was bundled up as he sat at a...

Sasha glanced around her surroundings, taking in the view of the winter wonderland. She was in her uniform, as well as her signature scarf. Even with the uniforms short sleeves, the cold had little effect on the automaton. The strange looking plant fidgeting in her arms was decorated with a red...

Aristella didn't make a point of visiting the school, having already accomplished the expected education level for the island. A few years out of date, sure, but that was nothing a few modern anatomy textbooks hadn't fixed. The academy here was definitely more advanced than the human world, and...

Aura was, as usual, not particularly well dressed for the weather as she stood by the big fountain with no winter coat but she was nice and warm. In one hand was a small gift bag, which she kept bouncing around in her general nervousness. She wasn't afraid the person she was partnered with...

It was Erione's first winter holiday season on Earth, since he had left to go home before last holiday season. Aside from poking out to help keep his outdoor shrine clear of snow, which was pretty tiring work for him for sure, he had been mostly staying indoors this month. Not so much because of...

Raella arrived at the courtyard empty-handed. Of course she had to, hand carrying such a huge gun would definitely ruin the surprise. Not to mention the gun, already made of stainless steel, was adorned with elaborate patterns and designs which made it stand out even more. Checking her mobile...

Having decided to participate this year in Manta Carlos Secret Santa event, Celeste had drawn the name of one, Yuki Shimizu, who was, as it turned out, a student at the academy. Glad to have found out this small detail about the person who'd be receiving, she had quietly asked around about her...

Grimoire of a Thousand Eyes The grimoire had been set up in a corner, partially obscured by a thick cloth to make it seem vaguely like a normal book. The attempt was ultimately a failure, however, because some of its eyes were still visible to allow it to see. After Maddie had screened its...
