Comments

[leekspins]

What is this Christmas you all speak of?

Ice King: A feather boa
Marceline: A glitzy black tanktop and a new CD

[smelltheredinside]

[She's just going to send Yang a text while she's listening to the CD.]

Thanks for the gifts. This band's pretty good.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[Captain Hammer gets a letter that says she will gladly join his team.

...It's written in red pencil crayon.]

[combatskirts]

[oh jeez. she see's yang's present right after she opens ruby's, and gets to unwrapping.

oh! chocolate. that's always welcome. even though its early in the morning, weiss opens the box and tries one. and they're delicious. no one can ever say yang doesnt have great taste. as she's chewing, she opens the other present and her eyes light up when she sees the hair accessories. like her old necklace, her tiara was also a gift from her family. but team rwby is her family now. so, she puts one in her hair and gets to unwrapping the rest of her things.]

[onecream_fivesugar]

Blake Belladonna, Sailor Mars, Jaune Arc, Harry Dresdon, Dean Winchester, Sun Wukong, Riptide, M Bison, Sofia Sincliar, Harpuia: You all get one Met wearing a Santa hat at your door, or where ever they happen to find you. Prepare to defend yourself against this festive assault.

Bring it on Met-Head

[no_love_potions]

[Well, that was that. All his presents were delivered and he'd had a good chuckle at Ruby's gift, shaking his head at the point starry hat before setting it on a high shelf on his bookcase. Even the Ice King's picture had found a spot on his icebox (heh).

Now, he had another stop to make and he pauses before picking up the flowers he'd purchased for this next trip with a heavy sigh. He'd see his friends later, but right now, he had something else to do.]

[Except his door only gets about halfway open before it hits something with a thud.]

What the hell?

[He tries a couple more times before poking his head out and looking around... and then down.]

[Sun's Place]

[monkeystowaway]

[Sun pulls open the door and spies the little guy right there on his doorstep.]

Huh. What the hack is this thing?

Seriously Wily? Seriously?

[hellfireshurricane]

You have got to be kidding me.

[Janos is standing outside his apartment building, staring down at the Met that had waddled up to him as he was about to go for a walk.]

Well, I know what to do with you.

[baconandsnausages]

[He's opening the door to frown at the little robot, mostly in confusion.]

The hell is this?

[Then he spots the little santa hat on his head, and it gives him a bit of a chuckle. That's pretty amusing.] You wander out of Nova city or somethin'?

[solar_flare]

Sweet! I was just starting to run low.

[She holds the bottles with a big smile. How thoughtful! When she opens up the comforter, she laughs, and promptly dons it like a cape.]

Guess we got the same thing for each other. Merry Christmas, sis!

[HUG YOU]

[aero_sage]

[Harpuia did not appreciate his present. He nearly destroys it, but instead, puts a trash can over it followed by something heavy. He'd rather showcase it as a warning later, along with a demand.]

[flamescout]

[This explains the shopping trip. Nonetheless, Raye is touched, even smiling!]

Thanks, Ruby.

Another one?!

[short_n_sweet]

[Jaune was just going to step out for a moment, probably to get some more syrup after pancakes happened with Nora and Karina.

Then he sees that little Met with a santa hat.]

... No.

[And then he closes the door and goes back inside.]

[combatskirts]

[She kind of crashed when she got here, but waking up and seeing gifts? on such short notice? Weiss probably couldnt have asked for better teammates (even though she was really upset her plan to get with phyrra fell through)

she opens the card first, gently, not even ripping the envelope and pulls out the invitation.. to move in? weiss assumed they would let her stay but who even knew ruby would be so thoughtful as to color her a card to do so. Well, alright, she kind of expects this kind of cute thing from her partner. she smiles softly as she studies the detail put into it.

then she puts it down and opens the small box attached. ...wow! how pretty. ruby is really thoughtful. maybe this is her way of making it up to weiss for messing up so much? she doesn't have to do that. regardless, she hesitates to take off her current necklace (it was an heirloom, after all. but things change and so has she) and places it in the box that her new one came in, which she now has around her neck.]

[short_n_sweet]

Jaune Arc

Ruby Rose: A bag of rainbow chocolate chip cookies and a neat t-shirt (with like, three wolves on it. And a moon. black of course)
Yang Xiao Long: New aviator glasses and a model motorcycle
Blake Belladonna: A chess set and a couple patterned bows
Weiss Schnee: A silver chain bracelet
Nora Valyrie: Made pancakes for her one morning, a nice pink sweater, and an assortment of chocolates
Beo: A hot dog squeak toy
Harry Dresden: An old-fashioned pocket watch - wind up, of course.
Raye Hino: A gold and pink brooch - it resembles the branch of a cherry blossom tree, also an invitation to dinner - his treat
Marceline: A couple heavy metal music CDs
Lust: An assortment of chocolates
Karina: A bed to sleep on for the apartment - also, cute slippers
Orihime Inoue: Also chocolates!
Cherise Tompson: A six-pack of energy drinks - and chocolates!
Sofia Sinclair: Chocolates, and a hand-written letter of thanks for helping save Ruby.

Ice King

Harry Dresden: A hand-drawn picture (poorly made) on crumpled paper of he and Ice King sharing a high five. "Wizard buddies" is written on it.
Marceline: A few recorded covers of him singing some of her songs.
Yang Xiao Long: A photograph of him in a sexy pose. So she won't forget him. It's signed.
Karina: She likes gems, so he gave her an Ice Diamond. It melts within 5 hours.

Milla Maxwell

She has no friends yet, but she celebrated by buying herself dinner and a bottle of wine liquor made with oranges that she once found she liked. Tipsy Spirit Lord!

[Open]

[crowning_glory]

Oh my, I forgot how lovely this tasted... and how dizzy it could make me feel. [Milla drank her liquor alright. It was nice to sit down at a restaurant and eat, but now she had to go back to her hotel and she was... stumbling about more than she'd care to admit. But trying to stay standing was a good distraction at least - she didn't think of Jude or the others so much.]

Come on now, Milla... you can still make it home...! [And cue a slip.] Whoa--! [She lands in a snow bank, but instead of getting up she just kind of lays there. It's amazing how she's able to keep from freezing in her outfit.]

This snow is very comfortable! But cold. Very cold. [She pushes herself up and staggers to her feet. It was about that time she realized that she wasn't sure where the hotel was.]

Ice Kiiiiiiiiiiing

[smelltheredinside]

[She doesn't know why she's either surprised or touched by the gift.... but she is. So she's taking her gift to him personally. When it's dark, she's going to float in the front of his ice castle with the cat in her arms.]

Ice King, you home? [Look at that, she even remembers not to call out Simon.]

[leekspins]

[Whoa, chocolates! That was so nice of him! Their meeting was so brief that she hadn't expected him to really remember her. Touched by the gift, she heads right into her kitchen and starts baking like crazy.]

[There's a knock on Jaune's door before Orihime flees the scene. On his doorstep is ANOTHER MET! ...Just kidding. It's a Red Velvet Cake, cutely decorated with snowflakes fashioned from drizzled white chocolate, and a card that says: "Merry Christmas, Arc-san! Thank you for the chocolates, they were super good. --Orihime"

[solar_flare]

Hey, the motorcycle is super cute! Thanks for the shades, I was missing my old ones.

[flamescout]

[The brooch is absolutely beautiful. Thoughtful, too! He remembered about the cherry blossoms. She may or may not be blushing and grinning like an idiot to herself as she pins it on. Then she gets to the invitation, and her blushing intensifies.]

[Did someone just...ask her out on a date...?]

[Her face is too red for video, so she sends a text.]

I'd love to.

[no_love_potions]

Harry Dresden

Raye Hino: A smooth obsidian stone carved with tiny, delicate-looking runes. When it's moved it looks as though liquid fire is moving just below the surface. It comes with a note that says "For meditation" and the word Ignus which will cause the stone to ignite with a cool-burning fire whereupon it will dim for twenty-four hours until it recharges.
Ruby Rose: A copy of Elementary Magic and a book of old folklore and legends.
Cherise Thompson: A slender chain bracelet interwoven with silver charms. Good for delicate workings.
Dean Winchester: Are they on gift-giving terms? Whatever, have a case of beer. Everybody else is trying to get him drunk for the holidays so why not?
Jaune Arc: His very own Everglade Guardian Office coffee mug and a gift certificate to the video game store in the mall.
Marceline: A mug of her own and a pair of sunglasses (it's funny because vampire)

All of his fellow Guardians get a nice gift basket with some food and wine and stuff and a small charm to call in the cavalry if trouble comes up (even you, Frollo.)

Blake Belladonna

Ruby Rose: A tune-up kit for Crescent Rose, and a big book of fantasy stories. Some of them have dragons.
Yang Xiao Long: A fluffy sweater and a pair of black and yellow grappling gloves.
Weiss Schnee: What the heck do you even get her? Chocolate and jewelry are both taken, so here's a nice scarf.
Jaune Arc: A copy of that game with the elf guy in the green hat. The one on a boat. He likes these things, right?
Nora Valkyrie: A gallon of maple syrup.
Sun Wukong: Some warm winter clothes to go with the coat Ruby got him.
Sofia Sinclair: A few of her personal favorite books (since she doesn't know what she actually likes) and a thank-you note of her own.


Jim Moriarty

Lust: A more expensive bottle of perfume he likes.
Ruby Rose: A hot water bottle.
Blake Belladonna, Yang Xiao Long, Jaune Arc and Sofia Sinclair: A gold star.
Dean Winchester: A mysterious box without a label.
Albert Wily: Some information on a special kind of circuit shielding. Figure it out for yourself, Mr. Smart Guy.
M. Bison: A neat little formula meant to turn anybody into a hulking super strong beast of a person. Both physical and mental side effects can be severe.
All City Guardians: A gold watch.

Kamina

What the heck is Christmas? This shirt is kinda cool but it looks like somebody left the fingers off these gloves.

Skeletor

He doesn't blast Janos with the Havoc Staff today. But he might have just been busy.

[evil_chin]

Bison was sooo fed up with the holidays that it took him a minute to realize that he had a gift from a certain benefactor. "Heh heh heh! Looks like my Christmas shall be merry indeed!"

Christmas celebrations! Yaaay!

[descendsfromshadow]

[Well, where else would everybody from Remnant come to celebrate the holidays but the Yangcave but Team RWBY's apartment? Talk about some sudden last minute preparations, yeesh!]

[But the tree's set up, the presents are out and everything's ready for the mob to descend.]


[OOC: A member of the RWBY cast? Get in here! An honorary member of the RWBY cast? AKA somebody with CR with one of these crazy kids who got invited? Get in here too! Everybody's welcome!]

[imitationsloth]

[Have Nora show up with a bag of (hastily purchased/made) gifts and some cookies on a plate.]

Hi Girls!

[betel_geuse]

Betelgeuse really didn't think he knew anyone well enough to exchange gifts with them. Then again, living people were odd creatures and you never knew what to expect from them. So, Betelgeuse has nicked gifts from a home or two or so and ripped the tags off. If anyone seems to want a gift from him, they can have one, but he has no idea what is inside the packages. He also doesn't much care.

SHE'LL TAKE A GIFT ^3^ (....Dean's going to be put off tagless gifts for a while, so yeeeah...)

[smelltheredinside]

[The guy seems to be giving out gifts, so he gets a raised eyebrow when she gets a random gift, but she's not going to complain.]

Thanks, I guess.

[She opens it, and is not.... the best amused to find a doll in there.] ....Lame. [She may or may not have meant for him to hear that]

HE WANTS TO KNOW WHY PEOPLE KEEP GETTING HIM BEER.

[baconandsnausages]

Dean: Like last time, to save himself embarrassment, gifts are left where they will be found pretty easily and quickly by the people they are intended for. (the obvious exception being ).

Harry: Elephant hair bracelet (good luck & protection charm. consider the hatchet well and truly buried. If you can, you know, figure out it was him.) UNNAMED WHO FROM.
Angel: List too big for all the extra clothes and toys, but the main gift is a customised bag he got made (Katze - The same sort as in that meme - yes, this was actually her present, not something I pulled out of my ass XD) That fits around her wings. It's not big or can fit a lot in, but it'll keep her shit safe as she's flying about.
Mary: Again, mostly miscellaneous gifts but the main one is this.
Orihime: Did you have a dress for the party? You do now. Even if she may want to attach straps, because physics. XD UNNAMED WHO FROM (because unlike last year, he's not too sure if she's going to like this or not - he wasn't sure which side of the 'tacky' line this was on. BUT HE THOUGHT IT WAS PRETTY ;~; even if that was mostly the saleswomans pitch, and the fact he remembers why he was going to avoid women's clothing stores near Christmas...)
Cap'n Kirk: TRIBBLE SLIPPERS. THAT MAKE HAPPY NOISES. HE'S NOT EVEN SORRY. NOT EVEN GOING TO LEAVE HIS NAME OFF.
Yang: HERS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SHE GOES BACK TO WORK. But the first morning she goes back in, there's a motorbike husk with a bow on waiting for her, even though he's not in that day. He put it there on the last day before the holidays after she left. Seriously, it's just burnt out body work - but you get to use the garage to do it up in your free time.
Sun Wukong: A jacket. UNNAMED WHO FROM.

Marceline:

Ruby: Red dressing gown (With a note pinned to it reading 'stay yummy and warm'.)
Yang: Gloves with a hard metal in the top over where your knuckles are. Yep, she got you knuckle duster gloves.
Jaune: a film called 'Heat signature'. (The film appears to be a fusion of action horror and suspense. It's about a submarine crew who enter an area where they detect the enemy's heat signature but are unable to find their own.)
Harry: Your city is overrun for the next couple of days by friendly skeletons (even if they look a little intimidating marching in all together) in santa hats singing carols whether you want them to or not. Have fun with that.
Ice King: After she eventually settles the debate with herself over even getting him anything, she settles on a big white and ginger fluffy cat That may or may not look like a certain character he now doesn't remember and she doesn't know he doesn't remember yet... that she couldn't leave once she had seen it.

God:
Everyone is getting Chocolate on your doorstep of some sort. Apart from you, Frollo. You get a bible, completely normal, except it has an eleventh commandment of 'thou shalt not be an uptight jerk'.

[leekspins]

[She searches diligently for a tag, especially since she's not sure this is really for her. Nonetheless, there's no one else who lives nearby that she knows of, so she opens it. And gasps. Oh WOW! How pretty! Now she doesn't have to go and get a dress for the ball! Still, she does wonder who sent it, and considers seeing if there's any traces of reiatsu lingering around the box. But that would spoil the mystery, so she doesn't. (Dean doesn't have enough spiritual mojo anyway.]

[combatskirts]

Weiss Schnee

yang xiao long: hair detangler, a nice bright yellow sweater
blake belladonna: a gift card to the book store
ruby rose: one of those animal hats that looks like a wolf!
jaune arc: a set of blue non-footie pajamas, and non-bunny slippers
nora valkyrie: some cute hair pins with hearts and lightning bolts
sun wu kong: you know those packaged tshirts that you get at the store? a few of those. one set of white and another set of red

[solar_flare]

[Hey, her hair isn't tangled! It's just...artfully disheveled! :D But she can use this for fancy parties, like the one coming up in a week, so she grins happily as she holds the bottle in hand.]

Sweet, thanks! What's this one?

[She shakes the sweater package, but it's squishy. Tearing open the wrapping paper because psshhhhhh who saves paper, Yang grins in delight.]

Oooo, snug!

[She immediately pulls it over her head.]

My favorite color too. Thanks, Weiss!
