A Gift Just Because

[onceinabluememe]

While giving gifts for holidays or birthdays or celebratory reasons is all well and good, what about giving someone something just because? It could be something huge and extravagant! Or it could be that you passed their favorite candy bar in the store and thought of them.

Either way, sometimes it's just really nice to give someone a gift just because.

So, here's how this works.

1: Post a comment below. To make things easier on people that might want to tag you, leave an OOC note with a list of things your character will like. And for hilarity, or for those who aren't really good at giving gifts, you can add a things they might not enjoy so much!
2: Tag around. Give other people stuff.
3: Have fun!

Gwen Stacy: Into the Spider Verse - OTA

[hibana_incursa]

[ ooc: gwen would appreciate new drum sticks, a very comfortable hoodie, new ballet shoes in bright blue, colorful hair dye, a gift card that can be used anywhere,, a teddy bear from build-a-bear.

gwen would not like: not a fan of eminem so anything with his face on it might not be received happily. ]

[metamorphical]

[From one hair colour lover to another. Tonks leaves Gwen with a small gift basket of everything she'll need to colour her hair -- a box of gloves, two bottles of Manic Panic (one Flamingo Pink and the other Lie Lock), and a jar of petroleum jelly to keep her skin from being dyed as well. Thanks cool punk bloke at the shop! Cheater that Tonks is with hair colour, she would have never thought of any of this by herself.]

[ Honestly? She responds well to good food. Plus gifts of money would be nice... ]

( Venti will take an entire bottle of wine thank you~ or he'll take an apple. or if you want to recite some poetry, or perform a song! he loves offerings, if you're looking to become an adoring disciple of his... )

Beetlejuice | Beetlejuice the Musical

[creepyoldguy]

[Beej would like: anything. Seriously. Anything. Literal trash? Sure. That thing that's been in a Tupperware container since Halloween? Give it over.

Beetlejuice is all about attention.

Things Beej wouldn't like: being ignored.]

Re: Beetlejuice | Beetlejuice the Musical

[hibana_incursa]

[ Dear Beej,

Gwen was gifted a bar of chocolate, only she's pretty sure said bar of chocolate was made with the Devils Saliva.

It says it's dark chocolate with four different kinds of exceptionally hot peppers, but she's not eating it. Her danger sense won't allow it. So enjoy this bar of dark chocolate infused with Ghost Pepper, Scorpion, Naga Viper and Carolina Reaper.

There's no note, but she did draw a tiny electric blue spider in the upper corner on the wrapper. ]

euterpe | greek myth-flavored original | ota

[catchiest]

[ Gifts are always a good thing to give a goddess of inspiration! Things she'd like: 1) Postmodern Jukebox merchandise, 2) random pink stuff including but not limited to lipsticks and home office supplies, 3) alcohol. Things she'd hate: a Taylor Swift CD. :( ]

Re: euterpe | greek myth-flavored original | ota

[hibana_incursa]

[ Taylor Swift is pretty irritating. Gwen's not going that route.

Instead, Gwen bought Euterpe a box of Extreme Pink Hair Conditioner from Overtone. There's the daily conditioner, the big jar of once a week, and some gloves to keep Euterpe from staining her skin. Enjoy! ]

Kitagawa Yusuke | Persona 5

[artislife]

[Art supplies, art books, tickets to art museums, canvas, paints, modeling clay, and really any art materials.

Or food because he's going to blow his money on art supplies anyways.]

[bindsthedead]

[The gift arrives in a sturdy wooden box. Inside there is parchment, along with a supply of inks, gold leaf, and metal nibbed dip pens.

Everything is carefully packed, and there's also an assortment of dried fruit and nuts.]

Tsukino Usagi || Sailor Moon Crystal || OTA

[moonlightshine]

[ooc: Food, anything cute, food, plushie, food....]

Sam Winchester | SPN | -- WHY NOT

[moveforwardnow]

[ Enter Sam Winchester checking the box of cinnabuns... which are a little smushed, and he awkwardly tries to rearrange them on his way over to offer the box properly. He's not the greatest at Japanese, but he's been working on it.

Nonetheless! He knows she loves sweets. ]

Rey || Star Wars || OTA

[talentedscavenger]

[Food...but anything would be appreciated and met with confusion, skepticism, and hesitation, depending on who the giver is.

What she would not like: anything with the Empire or First Order on it.]

Yami Bakura | Yu-Gi-Oh!

[destinybored]

[[ he likes weapons, disembodied souls, occult paraphernalia, incredibly raw steak...

.....trading cards, dice.... ]]

sansa stark | asoiaf/got | ota

[eyried]

[ lemon cakes, new dresses, freedom.... what every lady wants! ]

[ruinedsky]

[Well, this knight may be unable to give her (or himself) freedom, but he does so love seeing a lady smile. Especially a sweet girl like Sansa, who clearly has been through too much for someone so young.

Sylvain's carrying a little basket, covered with a cloth, but the smell of fresh baking leaks through anyhow as he knocks politely at her door.]

Sam Winchester | SPN | ota

[moveforwardnow]

[ Sam likes anything thoughtful. Literally. Unless he knows you're teasing him, he will take it well. That said, he specifically enjoys books, surprises that involve shared time and he has a private love for any types of soups, stews, chowders, etc. ]

[oldladyenough]

[ It gets hard to pinpoint where Sam is these days, but with a little help from Dean and some serious begging for an address Tara is finally able to send off a gift. When the brothers came to Charming, she had been beyond grateful that what she was seeing nightly at the hospital, this horrid creature was indeed real and not some figment of her imagination.

While Dean had tried to get in good with the doc, Tara felt more connected to Sam and had trusted him with some personal matters that came out one night when she was upset after they had killed the creature.

Waiting for him outside the hotel room is a box, when he gets around to opening it he will find several books that were extremely rare on Japanese demon lore along with a wide variety of homemade chowders that she had recently got around to making now that she was on medical leave.

At the bottom of the box is a note.]

Sam,

Just a little something to thank you. Not only for saving my life, but for allowing me to babble about some personal matters that had hit me hard.

Please, don’t hesitate to stop by if you are ever in California again.

-Tara

emet-selch (final fantasy xiv)

[wholeness]

(Oh dear. What to get the man who has everything and hates everything? Well... A good book of prose or poetry? Tickets to the theater? Something comfortable--a coat, cozy shoes, maybe even a blanket? Just don't expect a gift to be accepted gracefully.)

Donna Beneviento ꕥ Resident Evil Village ꕥ ota

[ventriloqual]

[ Probably flowers or a doll. She won't know what to do or how to take it. glhf ]

Chiaki Nanami | DanganRonpa 2

[moderating]

nanami kento | jujutsu kaisen | ota

[overtid]

[ B...bread.... bread. Also, bread? Yeah, bread.

Other options include: nice booze (from fellow adults, though a drink at a bar wouldn't impress him much), coffee?, a good meal, baked goods, I strongly suspect a tie would be hilarious, other cooking and or baking related items. His watch is already like $5,000 so don't bother with that.

Probably a lot of things he wouldn't care for... too many but atm I'm just imagining his face if someone tried to give him this. ]

A good meal?

[seemagicshit]

[You can't just slam cheap/fast food forever. Sometimes you just need a really good meal to wind down from a long day.

So Nanami, hope you enjoy chili shrimp and some sake because that's you're getting!]

Remilia Scarlet (aged up or smol) | Touhou Project | OTA

[scarlet_devil]

[ Remilia has expensive tastes, she'll appreciate something thoughtful, though. She'd also enjoy anything that could make her more resistant to sunlight and/or cross running water. ]

VENOM.

[werebonded]

[ The heads of bad guys, tater tots, and chocolate. Not necessarily in that order. ]

[bindsthedead]

[Well, Sabriel has some chocolate bars? She even wrapped them up with a ribbon.]

grogu / the mandalorian

[magichandthing]

( Yummy frogs and eggs! Things that make him go FAST! Anything that’s silver and shiny, like his dad! )

[protectoroftheskies]

[Out of all the people Carol has met across the universe, Grogu may just be the cutest. You can't help but want to give him things all the time. Which is why she's handing him a sleeve of cookies - already opened for his eating convenience.]

Mami Tomoe | Puella Magi Madoka Magica | OTA

[finaletea]

(( Pref for not getting shippy w/o previous CR. If it's okay, might have her with CRAU for a writing sample! ))

theo fletcher ◤ original (werewolf)◢ ota

[hababa]

「 Snacks are always a good shout; that failing, anything fitness related (new gloves for resistance training/lifting would be appreciated), or hair care stuff! 」

holly genovese / original (vampire) / ota

[mobprincess]

[ She's a kid of many hobbies; drawing supplies, legos, toys/objects that require assembly/generally anything that involves science or building, puzzle toys, or new skating safety pads. She's very easy to please - you could hand her a bag of teeth and she'd be thrilled. ]

[saymy_name]

( Oh, you want a bag of teeth, kid? )

These fell out of my friend's mouth last week, said he grew new ones. He's weird like that.

( Lydia didn't exactly want to hold onto Beetlejuice's teeth - gross - but they were kind of fascinating, all canines and a sheer, metallic kind of green, so she couldn't just throw them away. If this kid wanted them, though, she was welcome to them. )

lydia deetz / beetlejuice the musical

[saymy_name]

( A good horror story in any form, black thread, lace and fabric to make a new dress, creepy-looking rings and necklaces, repairs for her camera. )

[bindsthedead]

[The chest is small, sturdy, and distinctly old fashioned. Inside, there is lace, and several bolts of fine silk. None of it is black, although all of it is close to it- deep blue, dark red, a purple that looks almost black until its held up to the light, and a green that's the color of leaves in deep shadow.]

Sabriel | Old Kingdom | OTA

[bindsthedead]

[books, edged weapons, anything magical, stuff with a key design or that's useful for someone who travels a lot.

Despite being a necromancer she'd roll her eyes at anything with a huge death theme.]

[creepyoldguy]

[It's a copy of All My Friends Are Dead. Yes, he thinks he's very amusing.]
