Lelouch: In keeping with tradition, Rico has gotten him another subscription to this publication service. And purple earmuffs, too, because obviously Lelouch needs to take better care of himself while it's cold out.

Nunnally: A complete boxed set of the original Lassie movie serials on DVD... And also a copy of Guilty Pleasures, a delightfully trashy romance novel of a movie about trashy romance novels. Perfect for the discerning young lady.

Euphy: Copies of The Princess Bride, the book and the film. And what the hell, Guilty Pleasures, too. It'll give the girls something embarrassing to gossip about while Lulu's around.

Cornelia: Guil-- no. Something simple but useful, like Isotoner gloves and one of those keychain flashlight/multitool sets you see in near the check out line--inexpensive, but not cheaply made. No tag; they're delivered anonymously.

NICHE!!

also fyi, everyone's giving her food or adorable hats, so she'll be really cute and completely spherical while wreaking havoc.

... oh dear.

Well then, along similar themes, Thor will be giving Niche a pair of fuzzy pink mittens and one of those gift baskets that are full of holiday smoked sausages and various other meat products. But he's also giving her a book entitled Friend or Food?, written by one T. Odinson, and filled with pictures of the various people/critters in Camp she's tried to eat, each clearly labeled "This Is Your Friend. DO NOT EAT."

Also, because she is tiny and cute and deserves something pretty, she gets a silver bracelet with a tiny, Moogle-shaped charm dangling at the end.

Okay, to start with, Loki's getting a chain mail shirt to wear over his tunic, and a short sword and baldric so he can wear it slung from his shoulder instead of his belt. Thor forged them both himself, using supplies from the more-generous-than-usual Arts & Crafts Hut. Hopefully, he'll never need to use them. Additionally, one of these is attached to the chain mail. The pink one, because Thor is not without a sense of humor.

And then Thor also got him an iPad 2 as an afterthought. He has no idea what it is, but the zombie he bought it from was most insistent that it was an essential piece of mortal technology.

Hi Rico!

Rico gets her a hooded cape (he got Thor to help show him how to make one; surprisingly deft with needle and thread, that god), black with a yellow liner kind of like Robin's. And also some red hair accessories to go with her new coloring.

And she also gets a tiny stuffed mouse, "from Bailey." Cats aren't very good at holiday shopping.

Aww, Vanya will adore everything. And want to wear the cape all the time and the mouse will get a very special place in her blanketfort!

Hi Thor!

P.S: Cindy got Thor armour polish and the promise of roasted duck. Tiffany made him cheese.

Cindy: A blue winter cloak, trimmed with white fur. The clasp is (vaguely) shaped like a lady's pump, since Thor has only a vague idea of what those actually look like.

Tiffany: A broom, which Thor has made himself. It's somewhat magical as a result, but he's attached a note saying that he doesn't recommend she try to fly with it, since he doesn't think it's that magical. But he's heard that a broom is an essential witch-y accoutrement, so!

So stylish, Thor!

. . . Tiffany will no doubt find a use for that broom.

... yeah Thor has never heard that you should never get someone cleaning equipment or kitchen appliances unless they specifically ask for it.
