It's that time of year again: THE GRAND GIFT-GIVING MEME!



Hearth's Warming is fast-approaching in Equestria, and with the weather getting colder, the snow starting to pile up, and everypony buckling down for the long winter months, it's time to think about the most important aspect of the season. No, not family, or friends, though those are important, too...

I'm talkin' about that sweet, sweet Hearth's Warming loot. Or gifts, if you want the nicer term.

I'm sure a lot of you out there are already planning on what gifts your characters are getting for others, so let's go ahead and put it all in one place, for convenience's sake. Just put their shopping lists below and/or judge what others got yours. It's all in good fun, right?

Stuff they would like

Tails - Tools, cookies, mint (especially mint candy), books on machinery

Coco - Books on fashion, sewing supplies, flowers


Stuff they will likely give out/possible planned gifts

Tails - Homemade cookies for all his close CR

For Billy, he'll give him a fake horn with a blue gem in it for him to play/study with. He figures he would like something like that (though hopefully it doesn't cause an accident due to possible conflict with the fake horn and Billy's horn).

Coco - Scarfs and sweaters for all her CR.

She's making a tiny cute holiday dress for Clover.

All the Fluttershys will get matching scarfs with their cutie marks on it (though the Flutters will get two so Cruelly has one too and they can switch between scarfs).

Dame Rarity will get a scarf with her cutie mark on it as well as matching mane pins to go with it.

Dante will get stylish fingerless gloves (though they will only fit when he's human sized or whatever. Sorry Dante, she's only an earth mare. You'll have to get a unicorn or somebody to enchant it to change size with you).


Feel free to comment if I've forgotten anyone or if you want something different or whatever.

If it doesn't work, they'll fix it together! No worries.

Billy's gonna build something for Tails too, but that'll be a surprise :D he loves to share inventions.

Trixie Lulamoon - She oesn't usually accept any help and will see others giving her presents as help. She'll try and justify things by giving people money for the presents, retroactively buying them.

The Flutters - Fluttershy is fine with lots of things that involve nature and animals and the like while Cruelly may still want a sword. And other things. Coffee. Stuff.

Littlepip - One of the main things she wants is an energy gun just in case. She has no ammo for her current gun. She'll also be fine with a bunch of other stuff. Mainly things that involve history, because she'll delve into that instantly.

If you have any CR with Trixie Lulamoon, The Flutters, or Littlepip, please respond here to suggest things they'd buy for your muses.

Much like last year, all of Arcee's CR will get a dead mouse. Although Cliffjumper and Marty will also be getting cute scarves since they live in the same house and she'd rather not hear them complain. ...Mostly Marty's complaining.

Teddie's CR will be getting a cute basket of candy handpicked from Bon Bon's store (WHICH HE PAID FOR), so whatever your character's favorite is, it's probably there. There will also be a drawing of your character and him included in the basket perfect for fridge hanging. Girls are, for whatever reason, drawn in swimsuits. (Minus Nanako. Nanako gets normal clothes.) Kyouko gets the special honor of having her basket include a crystal apple because bear love.

Everyone on Team Dandy (Jappleack, Crmsn, Yukiko and maybe Kyouko he SUPPOSES she counts) gets one of those weird fruit bouquets, although the fruit shapes probably aren't as pretty because Dandy cut them himself. ...And Japple's is probably all apples instead of real assorted fruit. Yes, Dandy actually gives gifts. They'll probably be left at the door, don't expect him to actually give them in person. Leatherhead gets the special honor of receiving a giant dog sweater.

To be honest, I have no idea what any of my characters want for Hearth's Warming XD Fluttershy doesn't want to trouble anyone with asking for anything specific, so she's good with anything. She will be giving home-knit items to everyone, though, whether they're sweaters, hats, scarves, plush, the like.

Violet will get that it's like Christmas, but they're probably not going to really want anything specific. She's also on a limited budget, so her CR will probably get simple gift-baskets with sweets and things, though Billy might get find a book or two in his.

Nanako will also realize that it's a lot like Christmas too, but I'm not sure if she'll want anything...except maybe a kotatsu...for reasons. She'll probably give everyone hoof-drawn cards that she made in school...or tea, since she's an apprentice at Saori's tea shop and all ;D

Pyrrha just isn't used to the gift-giving thing in general, so she's not going to want anything really. She'll give really simple gifts as well, like things that could be put in a gift basket.

It's all up to discussion, though. Feel free to let me know if there's something specific they can give your characters~

[personal profile] caneattheseapples 2014-11-27 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Jappleack will be giving everyone in Ponyville apples. Not just her CR; everyone will be getting apples. They will be getting apples and liking them. She will also be finding/getting individual gifts for her actual close CR (Kyouko, AJ, Crmsn, Yukiko, and Dandy). Still not sure exactly what she'll be getting everyone - Kyouko she'll probably get a little set of matching bear pins or something for her and Teddie, she'll probably try and get AJ to come out for a night away from the farm to have some fun, still thinking about Crmsn and Yukiko. Her gift to Dandy will be her not hitting him, though she'll probably try and get him an actual gift as well she guesses. Probably hair shit or something so he can fawn over himself. She'll probably get a new set of boxing gloves or something too for Strong Bad.

Pokey has no friends and thus will not be getting gifts for anyone. So neh.

Well. That's not entirely true. He will be getting Teddie something. Specifically he was thinking of buying Teddie a candy basket from Bon Bon's, but when he sees that Teddie's giving the exact same thing (thanks Teddie) he'll probably just ask Teddie something he wants and make it for him. He'll also probably get Homura a book or something because he guesses she's nice enough for some timid, weird nerd.

Surprise will be trying to make little hand made things and gifts for her CR. This'll range from small little accessories and knick knacks to things like scarves and sweaters, trying to make them the best she can as she thinks others would like.

Well Marty is going to give most of his CR a mixtape of music that he thinks would fit them (Spoiler, it's all rock and metal music from the 50's to 80's). Strong Bad however will get a special mixtape that has Marty singing the songs, with a note saying that he can give him a normal tape if it seems too narcissistic.

Arcee will also get a bag of catnip because Marty highly doubts that Arcee would want a mixtape and he doesn't want his eyes clawed out for Christmas/Hearth's Warming.

Marty would also like music, video games, movie-type stuff, or soda if anyone wants to give him all of that for the holidays.

crapfully: (i'm charming)

[personal profile] crapfully 2014-11-28 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Strong Bad will deny any interest in Decemberween HWE if you ask him outright. He doesn't want to admit he cares. But he'll be sneaking a few things:
-Marty's gift he's still agonizing over. He'd really like to give him the Trogdor game, plus the chart for the song. But getting a game is hard :<
-Jappleack] is getting a super championship utility belt. It's awesomer than it sounds.
-Yggy is getting a video game by hook or by crook. The prices have surely skyrocketed after the basement's destruction, so...he'll try.

Applejack is just happy to have her friends at her side, no matter where they're from. She's making pies for everyone, but she's got a lot more to hand out too:
-Jappleack gets something real special, a family treasure. She's still deciding on one.
-Neph gets a cool hat, from one farmgirl to another. Because she'd look cute in one.
-Lethe gets a full basket of every apple treat she can think of.
-Maytwi gets a carefully sculpted wooden frame (with special picture) and lucky charm, to remind her she's always got a home with them.
-Princess Twi gets a fresh food basket and one ticket to dinner on the farm, because the Apples would love to host her.
-Lucia gets an annotated copy of her family's archive of stories, since her huge family has knowledge from all across Equestria. Well. Mostly apple-related knowledge.
-Dame Rarity gets an old family spa treatment and an antique brush. Because even as a warrior, she can take care of her lady side too.
-OU Rainbow gets the first Little Horse on the Prairie book, a rustic adventure series she loves.
-4G Rainbow gets Treasure Peninsula, another favorite book.
-TT Fluttershy gets little hats for Choco and Sprout, and a bigger one for herself. All matching. Their ears need protecting.
-OU Fluttershy gets a warm patched blanket and a very fresh apple supply for Flutterbat.
-Flutershy and Fluttercruel each get custom mugs, some hot drinks, and a scarf.
-IJAG Pinkie gets a couple of records of some hip square dancing music. Because people totally do that at parties, right?
-EG Pinkie gets a harmonica with her name on it.
-Woona gets a special Apple charm. Not that she expects her to wear it, but as thanks for helping w/ those bodyswap shenanigans.

Billy has a few things to give:
-Tails gets one of his new inventions: a crane that can be controlled to move in every direction, something he's tried to build as an extra option to the horn project.
-Violet gets a book of his favorite superhero stories because he thinks they could help her.
-Allen gets a few notes on what he's learned from Zord tech.
-Skyfire gets two sets of hand attachments for various tasks, one for each of his usual sizes, and an album of a few of their memories together, like a family.

And that's just for now! More will probably be added when I realize I forgot something, or changes as requested.

Oh yeah, and what they like:
SB: Rock and metal (the music genres), video games, outdated technology, (secretly) recipe books and oven mitts.
Billy: Magic books, history books, stories from all over, any inventing tools
Applejack: Farm tools, food, maybe some fashion the poor girl needs help.

Oh cool. Tails will appreciate it and will see if he can do something with it. Though seriously, the fake horn will need a real name at some point if Tails is going to start selling them.
triceratrots: (squee)

[personal profile] triceratrots 2014-11-28 04:02 am (UTC)(link)

Yes, help build Marty's arcade. But oh my gosh Marty would actually flip out if Strong Bad did somehow manage to get him Trogdor.
crapfully: (overjoyed)

[personal profile] crapfully 2014-11-28 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
And then Marty can laugh at what Strong Bad seems to think a dragon looks like. Chicken feet, one beefy arm? Really?

The song makes up for it, though. Hopefully.

ALL OF GWEN'S CR GETS PROTEIN. It doesn't even matter if they've even talked once, you're getting protein. Closer CR will also get some more personal, small gifts from her, but I haven't decided on that yet.

Meanwhile, I want to be the horrible person who has Cecil gift bloodgoyles to CR, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do that.

Rainbow Dash - She may have mentioned a few things on her list to Pinkie, but maybe a blue jacket that looks similar to AU!Rainbow's but can still tell them apart? As for what she'll be giving her friends? Differs on whichpony it is, but...Derpy's gonna be getting a muffin of superamazing proportions! XD Haven't figured out what the others will get yet

Sayaka Miki - In light of one of her friends/mentor Mami going home, a job is probably what she'd want most so she can help support Madoka and herself.

Madoka will be getting a pink set of earmuffs so she can stay warm during winter.
Kyouko will be getting a bag of apples and imported oranges, since she's pretty sure pocky doesn't exist in Equestria. XD
Homura will be getting a jacket that matches her mane. Sayaka enjoys having the 'nerd' as her friend/not enemy.
Violet will be getting a scarf with the same color that matches her name though Sayaka won't know as such.
Teddie will be getting some fish that should be eaten promptly because, didn't Sayaka hear once that bears know how to fish? XD

Ruby Rose - Probably something simple for herself since she's probably not too used to giving gifts aside from events and birthdays -she grew up on an island- and Zwei would enjoy anything he's given!

Yang will be getting a cloak and hood that matches her hair so the sisters can match!
Jaune will be getting a scarf and gloves that has his symbol/cutie mark on it. She's not hoping Pyrrha will get him the cool gift!
Pyrrha will be getting a scarf and matching gloves that matches Jaune's but with her cutie mark on it, and some sweets!
Ren will be getting the same as his teammates, minus the sweets. She's pretty sure Pyrrha will share!
Bon Bon will be getting a picture of Ruby, Yang and Zwei in the form of a Christmas card
Lyra will be getting a picture of Ruby and Zwei in the form of a Christmas card
Cirno will also be getting a picture of Ruby, Yang and Zwei in the form of a Christmas card but she'll get a cloak and hood that's similar to Ruby's

PINKIE

- Everyone in the game gets a tin of holiday cookies
- Every Mane Six member gets a delightful Friendship Ornament
- Gwen: a movie about ninjas and explosions
- Dust: a book about FUN! May or may not be informative
- Giegue George: a teeny tiny rat sweater
- Bertie: it's a box of chocolates but she made up the outside to look like a book about fancy weddings because lol
- Minako: a picture of the two of them mucking about in costume on the set of Earth v. Soup. God knows how she took it.

And the rest of her CR can pick out their own present because omg I can't

HARVEY

- Flare: some romance novels by Li Oppenhoofer, and also he renewed the subscription to that terrible fanzine about him she that someone signed him up for WAS IT YOU FLARE so she can keep mocking him with it
- Bertie: an imitation dragonskin coat to match his gauntlets. Flashy.
- Madoka: a good winter cloak from Rarity
- Skyfire: a really giant book. It's a novel of some kind, he mostly got it because it's dragon-sized but it looks good.
- Hayate: box of chocolates
- Donna: a set of fancy teas
- Minako: gift card to a nice restaurant, but seriously he will never go out to eat with you don't look at him
- York: a classy suit (do not ask where he acquired sizing info)

POLLO

- Maytwi: what does she even want help me
- Don:a nice welding torch
- Princess Luna (the Night Market one): a new Umbra cleaning kit
- Andrew: a nice new toolbox
- The Doctor: a book on the theory of time-travel spells
- Bertie: a thing of candied nuts. (He somehow heard about Bertie receiving those as gifts before and assumed it was just because he liked them.)
- Donna: a box of chocolates
- Violet: a fruit basket. Please know that this is the result of a long, convoluted train of "over-thinking what being a good employer is, specifically as pertains to holidays".

DISCORD

- OU Fluttershy: a bonsai tree. Grows rainbow flowers and apples.
- AU Fluttershy: an unknown species of bush that grows ice flowers
- Fluttershy/Fluttercruel a reversible cloak. One side is blue with golden flower embroidery, the other is green with spikes. Don't ask where the spikes go when the cloak is reversed.
- Dante: a golden locket with a picture of the two of them, and also an unusual internal organ that oozes something weird
- Maytwi: Two ominous, ancient books written in unknown runes. Proof against translation spells.
- Yg'baladoth The sound of a kirin's antler striking the great gong of Neighpon
- Madoka: A map to a treehouse in Whitetail Wood. Also a treehouse.
- Alastor: a fancy sunhat
- Jappleack: a zap-apple pie
- Derpy: a herd of titanium wildebeest set up in her front yard
- Bertie: a goldfish
- Dame Rarity: not so much a gift as three boxes of poofballs
- Zecora: a bright red jumpsuit
- Payton: slightly carnivorous hair cone


Let me know if I've missed anyone, I probably have because I play four characters, two of them are Pinkie Pie and Discord, and my life is a series of horrible mistakes
