Gifts will be posting today!

vcsecretgifts:

This is it!  Your Secret Santas will be revealed!

We’ve had a few people notify us that their gifts will be sent late.  If you’re running behind, please let us know.  It just better helps us work out if we should have someone else fill in for you.  This time of year is stressful and busy for everyone, so we definitely understand.  And it’s no big deal if you’re a few days late, though if you can have your gifts to us sometime today, that would be super.

This exchange has been stellar.  The mods have brainstormed a few ways to make future exchanges even better.  These events are a constant learning experience for us, especially as participation grows.  As we did last year, I’m thinking we will do a Secret Valentine in February, as our mini-exchange following this one.

I would like to give a big shout out to @i-want-my-iwtv, who has been such a phenomenal moderator for this event.  I (merciful-death) have had a lot more on my plate this year than I did last year, so her help has been so much appreciated.  There’s a lot that goes on to make these exchanges a success, and I could not have done it without her.

I hope that everyone who celebrates it has a Merry Christmas, that y’all who celebrates other holidays have had a great holiday season, and that the New Year will be awesome for everyone.  The VC fandom is full of many wonderfully gifted and kind people.

Thanks,
merciful-death

^All this, seconded, underlined, bolded. We are fortunate to have such a pool of talent in our fandom. I am impressed with ALL of the gifts.

;A; Thank u for the kind words, @merciful-death, I was honored to be part of it *hugs tightly* of course you know this means you’re stuck with me for the next one, if you’ll have me.

As I was in the middle of one of my finals today, your comment about Tom Cruise needing to stahp popped into my head, and it required everything in my power to not start laughing in the middle of the quiet gymnasium.

*snorts in my coffee* EXCELLENT i am such a fabulous influence on young impressionable minds. No really, I’m pleased that I could make your finals a teensy bit fun *u*

I was gonna put my fave tag links here but I cannot do the proper research for it rn, will try to do it later bc BELIEVES IT OR NOT I do try to tag things in such a way that I can organize this mess somewhat but then I add a bunch of THOUGHTS to it which is purely for our own enjoyment >;}

#this is my weird attempt to reach out #cries & slithers back into the void #imsorry #i’m not good at talking to mega popular people that i wanna get to know #i just #*puts on brave face* #hi hello my name is Kota would u like to be friends……….. #please ignore the fact that i’m shaking like an earthquake #that’s normal #not bc i’m nervous or anything #i should stop omg #why am i making this post #no turning back now i guess


*~HELLO KOTA~* are you freakin’ kidding me, you’re too adorable! I love your VC fanart. YOU’VE ALREADY GOT YOUR OWN TAG on my blarg! *hugs tightly*

No slithering back into the void. I don’t know toastyhat, but speaking for myself, I’m human, believe it or not just a parttime Greek goddess. I, too, shake like an earthquake with teh emotions, and a message like this definitely makes my heart go all aflutter. I have this effect on someone??! SO VERY HONORED.

Part of the reason for my blog is to matchmake people in the VC fandom to eachother, and hopefully true friendships are forged between ppl who share our addiction to this crazy trashpile that is VC fandom. I’m limited by time, in that I must have a day job in order pay the costs of living, but all the time I can carve out for fandom is reserved for you (you specifically, and the wider you meaning, “everyone”)!

If it works out that I get to make new friends for MEEEE, hey, so much the better! 

Gosh, Santa de Lioncourt kills me every time. I’m weeping with laughter, and it’s your fault :’) Précieux petit croissant, ne cesse jamais d’être aussi drôle!

♛Et tu me fais plaisir, aussi! Il faut que je continuer à faire ça, c’est ma metier et ma passion terrible. ooc; *hides face* because you’re gonna correct the femininity/masculinity of my nouns now but you should be impressed that I TRIED. “A” for effort, I award it to myself.

Thank god for this blog! It’s nice to see that the fandom is still so thriving and active. ❤

Merci beaucoup, such kind words, I’m very touched *u*

I’m happy to see the fandom as lively as it is, too. It fluctuates over time. The next official book will undoubtedly send us all into a massive frenzy, whether we like it or not.

@i-want-my-iwtv requested Louis and Lestat dancing

#HIGHEST PRAISE

I adore this. ADORE.

I want my IWTV too!

Don’t we all? *blows kiss*  You are welcome to all that I can provide here! Y’know, the “I” is meant to be for anyone who likes this blog, not just the fabulousness that is its mastermind, ~Mater Fabuloso~.

…Except Lestat. He doesn’t want any more of THAT version of the story, lol.
