Thank you to whoever got me this awesome poro! I love plushies and it's super cute. I noticed it came directly from the seller so I was really surprised it was so prettily wrapped; I don't know if you asked for that or not but it made me really happy.

Anyway, thank you so much!

The Robin-bear is so soft and adorable! I am wearing the scarf you made right now actually and it's so warm. Thank you so much for this incredible gift, you are such a generous santa!

Never got acknowledged by Seagull Santa for my last post, haven't been keeping up with SS overall, does Santa have an email? Offer is still open to send gifts to seagulls that are confirmed grinched by January 1. And to answer the last anon, no, sending things out without receiving anything does not make me feel bitter in the least. I much prefer giving to receiving, I already make stuff anyways and I love sending things in the mail!

so glad you like it all!! i was worried the necklace would be too strange.

i will probably associate the Fate series with Christmas now since i watched three of the anime series during this Secret Sanra process. my favorite so far is probably Fate/Zero. i missed the dynamic between Goldie and Saber in Unlimited Blade Works, but enjoyed the ways it was different from Stay/Night otherwise.

also as it turns out, they did create one of the characters i thought would make a good servant, King David. they made interesting character design choices, which i am unsure how i feel about, but i am pleased the concept exists.

/weebtalk

i am happy you enjoy it all, too bad about the card! etsy shop is ghastlygear.etsy.com. it is fairly empty now, as i have had no opportunity to take pics in natural light in a while. i plan to do themed lucky packs for New Years, so there will be a big update in the next week.

merry christmas!

Hello, seagulls! As it turns out, I am too shy for an unboxing video. So Homura, a previously shared gift from another Santagull, will be modeling the gifts I did not yet post.

I already posted my initial reaction for this Santa, but I did not share a picture. The knit fake collar is very comfy and I wore it to a Christmas party. I like high collars so this may see much use.

The Anthony pin is available at the etsy shop featured on the business card! It looks and feels like something right out of the animation.

Festive!Homu is very precious. I am having a happily Homuful Christmas.

J from GA, my package arrived today! Oh goodness. I am really overwhelmed with all of these cute things. This art book is wonderful; I've never owned one before. This will definitely be something I will look over again and again. Maybe I can even practice reading my moonrunes with it. The stickers are simply adorable. I don't even know where to stick them. The Patchy and Homu keychains will be a nice addition to my collections. The crown notecards are very fitting, and I love the royal look to them. As for the Pokemon goodies, I'm always a sucker for it. Once again, I really appreciate this gift exchange and hope you have a happy new year!

If anyone got my cards about cookies, then I'm so sorry, but I'll have them sent soon! I made a ton, and my mother though they were for our family Christmas celebration, and added them to theirs. So I need to get more ingredients and make more, but I'll have them out soon.

This is the busiest I've ever been for christmas, but I'm really thankful for that. I'm usually a NEET who hides away, but this has forced me to go out and everything. I know that doesn't seem like much, but I'm really thankful to everyone who participated and to santa gull for organizing all of this.

I'm sorry I'm so late posting this! I've been really busy with my family these past few days and I haven't had much time at home.

JM from QC- Thank you so much! The accessories are gorgeous and the tea smells amazing. I actually meant to have the tea on Christmas, but things were so hectic I didn't get around to making it. I'm planning on having it on New Year's instead. I truly love everything. Thanks again for such a sweet and thoughtful gift.

NS from AB- I got your card! Oh my gosh, I honestly almost cried when I opened it and saw that you'd drawn all my favourite animals. Thank you so much, your art is beautiful and it really made my day. I'll send you a reply ASAP!

>>8779589
AH from QLD- You're very welcome! I'm glad to see it got to you in one piece, and it makes me so happy to hear that you liked the earrings!! I have the other part of your gift at my house now (finally), so I'll ship it out as soon as I have a chance.

Sorry I'm posting so late! I love it all so much, thank you! The card is so pretty and thank you for taking the time to wrap everything individually. I LOVE the purse, it's beautiful, I'll be saving it for special occasions, and I've never had a nice pen before! I am also really grateful for the strawberry pocky, I used to buy it at uni but nowhere back home sells it.

I really want some kind of general 'Artist's exchange.'

Pairing people up will take the longest. Haven't figured out a more efficient way to do this. How long it takes depends on how much effort you want to put into pairing people up.

The setup for mass email, signups and duplicate checks are good to go.

Would need someone who is dedicated to answering emails and troubleshooting problems asap.

I would be happy to help in a Valentine's exchange but not as leader because work hours mean I'm a bit shit at replying to emails promptly.
