« OOC: Our hostess with the mostess has decided to organize an RNG Secret Santa + is also giving a very casual shoutout to the Christmas ball she, Anthony, and Simon will be hosting. Please comment here with the form in this post. Signups will run from Dec 3-17, and all assignments will be included in THIS post on Dec 17th after 8PM EST, in a comment below. I will also send PMs with your assignment, link to the assignments comment on the game Discord and in my own plurk [plurk.com profile] illusen. If canonmates get chosen in the RNG process, I'll reroll so we can get some variety. She is not aware of there being price minimums or limits generally to, so have fun! :')

[ a smiling daphne is on screen from the living room in her cottage, camera propped up somewhere to show her sitting on a sofa. she's naturally in a regency era dress, and there are splashes of red and white flowers behind her, greenery bringing the arrangement in a silver vase together. ]

Hello. I hope this message finds you well. [ a little clear of her throat. ] As it is December and with the holiday approaching, I would like to make a suggestion. Christmas is rather differently honored and celebrated in the time I am from, but I find it remarkable how bright and brilliant it seems to become in later centuries and decades.

I have heard of a tradition that I believe is called Secret Santa. [ said as if she's trying to be sure that the phrasing is correct, though no one she shares her house with would be able to deny or confirm anyway! ] If you have heard of it and would like to participate, I should like to organize the event.

For those who do not know what it is...it seems you are assigned a person to pick and bestow a gift to out of a list of many other participants. I am including a form to which I would like anyone who wants to sign up to fill out. If you are unable to do so, you may send me a voice or video message as well. Additionally, once assigned someone and if you require assistance in picking out a gift, I shall be happy to provide such.

Naturally, you shall give the person you are assigned their gift before the holiday arrives. [ a long beat, a long inhale, anticipation glittering in her eyes. she's got this next part all ready to go, too. ] There shall be invites sent out later, but there will be a ball with dinner on Christmas Eve that I am hosting with my brother and husband, as well, so you may exchange your gift there, or at another time, of course.

[ her shoulders pop up a little, smile perking. ] Thank you for considering, and I hope to hear from many of you soon.
